Players choose Cake Poker for realistic game play, one-of-a-kind promotions, generous rewards and one of the most lucrative referral programs in the industry. Cake is home to the $52,000 Gold Card Jackpot, Daily Lottery and awards over $15 Million a month in tournament action. Here's just a slice of why players choose Cake for a more rewarding gaming experience.

SOFTWARE:
Cake Poker software features 20 realistic looking avatars of varying ages, genders, and ethnicities. A feature to note during game play, a multitude of individual statistics that can be accessed from the table-view, including “Hands dealt,” “saw flop at small blind/big blind/other/total,” “showdowns won,” and “other wins.” For players looking to keep tabs on opponents, the “Players Notes” tab has a section that enables users to assign colored pips to opponents' avatars to visually designate their playing-style at the table.

The lobby has multiple tabs to filter tables, making it easy to find table action! The cash games are grouped together by poker variant and further filterable by limit-type (for instance, no-limit, fixed-limit, or pot-limit). The entire list is sortable to make finding the right table a little easier. The lobby displays average pot, percent of players who see the flop, and hands per hour.

GAMES OFFERED
Hold’em (limit, no-limit, pot-limit, six-handed, turbo)
Omaha (high, eight-or-better; both variants offer limit, pot-limit, and no-limit)

TOURNAMENTS
CakePoker offers a variety of sit-and -gos including heads-up tables, six handed tables, 10-person tables, and 30-person tables with buy-ins ranging from $1 to $5,000. The site is also relatively unique in that it offers bounty sit-and-go tournaments. Turbo sit-and-gos are also available.

CakePoker offers a weekly $75,000-guaranteed rebuy tournament as well as a $150,000 monthly rebuy tournament, both with buy-ins of $100. The site features many other guaranteed tournaments, as well.

CASH GAMES
Hold'em cash-game tables are generally well-populated. Even the highest-stakes tables usually have tables running, although there can sometimes be a wait to get seated at a populated table.

Omaha tables are less popular, but it is still relatively easy to find a game at the lower stakes.

PROMOTIONS Gold Card promotion wherein players collect randomly dealt gold cards that can be redeemed in various ways (visit the CakePoker website to find out more by clicking here).
Gold Chip giveaways. Players can redeem Gold Chips for merchandise from the CakePoker store. Among the things available at the store are shirts, poker books, iPods, and, of course, cakes (seriously). Players can also redeem Gold Chips for free entries into tournaments. Those tournaments can be found under the Gold Chip/Gold Card tab in the lobby.
Tiered refer-a-friend program pays users more based on both the number of referrals they make and on how much those referrals play.

DEPOSIT OPTIONS
Visa, MasterCard, Moneybookers, ECO Card, UseMyWallet, eWallet Express, Neteller

I don't think the software is the best but they have great support and there's no problem making withdrawals. Not every site can say that.
