Red Kings Poker is on the Ongame Poker Network, a VIP Rewards site that uses the Essence Rake Model to keep winning regulars off the network and to maintain a high proportion of fish. All players have the option of 6 deposit bonuses; your VIP Rewards will start once your bonuses are either cleared or expired. Red Kings Poker has 7 VIP Reward levels with 4 levels based on monthly point accumulation and 3 that are based on yearly point accumulation.

Red Kings VIP Rewards and Player Points

Back To Top
Red Kings Poker has 7 VIP Reward levels; 4 levels are based on monthly point accumulation with 3 that are based on yearly point accumulation. Player Points then convert to Red King Crowns, which can then be used for tournament tickets, cash back or other items from the Red Kings Store; Grinderschool recommends using them for cash back which offers the highest VIP Rewards rate. The Player Point to Crown conversion rates are different for cash games and tournaments. In tournament play, players earn 5 Player Points for every $1 in tournament rake which converts to 2.6 Crowns; cash game players earn 3.25 Player Points for every $1 in rake that also convert to 2.6 Crowns.

Red Kings is part of the Ongame Network, which awards player points in cash game in accordance with the Ongame Essence Model. The Essence Model awards Player Points more generously to losing players and less generously to winning players; this seemingly unfair system keeps a lot of the regulars off the tables and makes for softer cash games. The Essence Model has no effect on tournament players.

Red Kings Deposit Bonus

Back To Top
At Red Kings Poker you have 6 different deposit bonus options, each with a specific expiration date, rake clearance and rewards %. While clearing your bonus, your VIP accounts and Crown accumulation will remain frozen until either the bonus clears or expires. If for some reason you are not able to clear your entire bonus then the remaining points will be converted to normal Red Kings Player Points and Red King Crowns for use in the VIP Club.

Ongame Poker Network Traffic

Back To Top
The following table shows how the Ongame Poker Network compares to other online poker networks during peak hours:

  Rank  Poker Network  Peak Players in Lobby    Cash Game Players  
1Poker Stars200,000+35,000+
2Party Poker22,000+7000+
3iPoker18,000+6000+
6Ongame10,0003500+
13Entraction70002300+


The Ongame Poker Network has significant 6-max NLHE and PLO traffic at all levels with very few full ring NLHE tables running at $100nl or higher; small stakes players will find several full ring games below $100nl. The following is a break down of the Ongame Poker Network's cash games during peak hours:

GameType  Number of Tables    Total Players  
  Texas Hold'em  No Limit3502000
Texas Hold'emLimit415
Omaha  Pot Limit  100500


Very few SNGs run higher than the $33 level but the Ongame Poker Network has significant SNG traffice at the $22 level and below. While several MTT guarantees exist at the $4k level and below, only a couple daily rebuy tournaments have a guarantee of $8k to $10k.



Red Kings Poker Rake Calculation

Red Kings Poker uses the “Essence” rake system, which awards slightly more points to players who enter hands against stronger, more experienced players, and awards slightly fewer to strong players playing against weaker opponents. Like “weighted contributed” method, the amount of rake credited depends on the amount of money a player puts into a pot, but it is adjusted “slightly” depending on how experienced the opponents are. This method has come under criticism for a lack of transparency in how it’s calculated.

Overall Red Kings Poker Review

Back To Top
Because of the reward structure, the cash games at the Ongame Network are likely to have a higher proportion of fish than at any other site. The Ongame Network Essence Model significantly under-rewards winning players in exchange for over-rewarding losing players which in turns keeps many winning regulars off the site. While Red Kings has a large selection of small stakes cash games and SNGs, Grinderschool recommends that only the mid stakes cash game players and high rake earners continue to play at Red Kings after the deposit bonus is cleared.

If you are a high rake earner then Red Kings is the place to find great cash game tables with a VIP system willing to reward you for your loyalty.
