I have decided to review the online version of Tower Torneos because it is one of the leading poker rooms in South America and because its partnership with 888 Holdings means that the online gaming situation in Latin America is about to change. Since this heralds the first ever online gaming entity shaking hands and walking forward with an actual Latin American casino or poker room, the product it is offering needs to be examined and that is what I have done below. Read each and every one of the below recommendations and decide for yourself whether Tower Torneos is worth your time or not.
1) Languages:
While the major language for playing is Spanish, Tower Torneos offers its software in an additional two languages: English and Portugese.
2) Game Accuracy:
The software that you download from Tower Torneos has been constructed by Random Logic, a traded software company, which is the software branch of 888 Holdings. Random Logic tests and retests its software as well as uses automatic testing software specially developed to test numerically patterns and themes. This is one of the strong points of downloading Tower Torneos.
3) Game Variations and Structures:
Tower Torneos offers a small range of games to choose from but each game is well constructed with a favourable to the eye design and fast response timings. You can pick either Texas Holdem, Omaha High/Low or 7 Card Stud (High/Low). Another good possible feature is the three different types of poker tournaments that Tower Torneos allows you to join. These are either the multi-hand ones or the multi-table ones as well as the sit-go tournaments.
4) What Kind of Players?
Since this is a relatively new online poker room, and since it is also not yet widely known to the masses, the quality of players coming to play is good. In other words, play here once you know the game well because you will face South American poker veterans and (most probably) not rookies. On one hand, this means that it is a bit more difficult to win but on the other hand it means that the poker games are of a higher quality.
5) Securitry:
The software you download is very similar to that you would have downloaded from Pacific Poker (an 888 poker brand) and this means that all transactions are verified by a reputable accounting agency as well as fraud detectors. In addition, their random number computer system (because it is not new) is a well tried and well used device that does its job everytime.
6) Customer Service:
One of the hitches of a new poker room is that its customer service is not yet fully trained to cope with all the different problems and difficulties that arise from a wide range of international players with a wide range of issues. So, you might have slight problems now and then, but on the other hand, each of their personnel are well trained and patient enough to carry each problem right through until a solution is found.
So, what is my diagnostic advice?
I do not recommend the Tower Torneos poker room for newcomers but I do recommend this poker room for experienced poker gamers. My reasoning for this suggestion is that Tower Torneos caters more to the South American poker pros than it does to the South American poker newcomers. But, in any case, this does not mean that all the players you face will be professionals but it does mean that the likelihood that those playing poker against you will possess strong game skills is relatively higher than at the usual poker room.
