Is Empire Poker the same as Party Poker? For all
purposes, yes. Empire Poker and Party Poker share the same players,
same games and same support staff. The only difference is that
they have different multi-table tournaments.
Are there any other differences between Empire
Poker and Party Poker Empire Poker offers Player Rewards and
a VIP club that rewards you the more you play, similiar to a casino
comps. Party Poker does not offer any rewards to it's players
as of yet. (Update: Party Poker now does indeed offer a player
reward club now, similar to Empire Poker.)
So does Party Poker own Empire Poker? No.
Party Poker is developed by a parent company called iGlobalMedia.
Empire Poker is based in the Netherlands and is very popular with
European and North American players.
What is offered through the player rewards
system? You can use player reward points to enter tournaments
or get merchandise. Empire is also currently offering a $5,000
Freeroll for new players, has daily $500 Freerolls and is doing
a $35 signup promotion for new players. To get the promo, use
the Empire Poker bonus codes at the bottom of the page.
Again, the one difference between the skins is
that Empire Poker and Party Poker have different multi-table tournament
games. By all accounts, multi-table tournaments are easier on
Empire Poker than Party Poker, so you have a better chance of
winning tournaments on Empire Poker. That said, Party Poker does
have larger tournaments.
Can I play at both Empire Poker and Party Poker?
It was pretty popular in the past for players to grab accounts
at both sites. Regulars would do it to double up on their bonus
deposits, while pro players would do it so they could have a known
name and a lesser known name. However, policy changes have more
or less stopped this.
Note that you cannot sit down with your Empire
Poker and Party Poker accounts at the same table - the software
won't allow you to (which is a good thing).
I can't create an account at Empire Poker /
Party Poker Sometime in mid-2004, Party Poker decided that
users were abusing the bonus system by signing up at multiple
sites and banned players from getting accounts at more than one
skin such as Empire Poker. To sign-up at Empire, you must uninstall
Party Poker first.
