Readers may recall publicity last year in which the Golden Spirit Mining Company announced the unlikely intention to operate an Internet poker site.
This week these intentions materialised in the form of a renamed company (now it’s Golden Spirit Gaming) and an average sort of online poker site branded Golden Spirit Poker.com. Unfortunately there is not a lot of significant information (like network and poker software in use) upfront here, and the live chat Support refused point blank to disclose this fundamental information.
We can tell you that the site claimed to have 14 295 players in action when we visited, which would seem to indicate a reasonably effective network, if we knew which one it was.
The site does offer a multitude of financial options including Neteller, Nexum Financial, 900Pay and eWallet Express, and it offers free lessons for novices with the basics of the game to speed up the learning curve.
There’s also play for free or for real facilities, a nondescript sort of online casino option and various tournaments. The bonusing looks generous at a matchplay signup on all deposits over $50, but its maxed at $250 and caution is needed on ascertaining what the WT is. There’s also a $30 bonus on all re-ups. The domain is owned by Arc2 Intertainment out of Vancouver, and the licensing is from Curacao.
