28 September 2011 Update:Unfortunately Piggs Peak Poker is no longer accepting bets from South African Players.

We need to state upfront that we are not poker fundies and do not play at the online poker rooms as much as we do the online casinos, so you are not going to read realms of poker information on this site.
We do, however know that many African players are now starting to play online poker - especially when one sees the amount of ads that regularly cross our tv screen for online poker sites.

For this reason we have listed only 1 online poker sites that accept Rand currency. Why only 1 and not 2 you may ask? Simply because we have left Silversands poker out of the equation as we have not tested them out so cannot confirm whether they are good or bad,so we cannot say whether they are a good or bad poker room, so we have stuck with the one we know best - namely  

Piggs Peak Poker is an online rand poker room. We know the management team of Piggs Poker Poker and can assure you that these guys are tops and above board in all aspects. They treat their players like absolute gold, even going as far as sending hampers, organising free holidays at Orion Piggs Peak Hotel in Swaziland and generally showing their players that they are important to them.

They can also brag about sending quite a few of their players to the WSOP ( World Series of Poker ) event. In fact Raymond Rahme comes to mind. He was an All Africa Poker winner and went on to take 3rd place at the WSOP a few years ago.
