Tower Torneos is a Spanish-language online poker establishment. (Torneo means “tournament” in Spanish, so the title can be interpreted as a Spanglish version of “Tower Tournaments.”) The site also tries to gather its members into an online community, under some direction from its staff. It does this through a blog in which people can discuss poker, site developments, etc. Responsible Gaming is also incorporated into the site’s policies, which means that minors are not allowed and measures are offered to help problem gamblers.
It must be said that a site that does not have English as its default language can be a little bit jarring at first glance. On the other hand, speakers of Spanish may feel especially drawn towards Tower Torneos, given that it is one of the few sites that does not treat their native tongue as somehow second-class, and recognizes it as the major world language it truly is. As you might expect, this site is primarily geared towards players in Latin America.
Promotions and bonuses
Both new players and long-time devotees will have cause to celebrate. The 100% match bonus on your first deposit has a rather generous ceiling ($400). You can also get freerolls. Now for what you stand to gain a little further down the line: there is a rewards program here. As you play, you accumulate more points, which can then be redeemed for benefits and bonuses.
Casino's Games
There are some gambling sites that tend to feature a certain type of game, such as slots or bingo. However, they do not limit themselves just to that game and its variants, and offer side games from other game families as well. Tower Torneos is not one of those sites. The focus is only on poker. If you like your gambling sessions to be a mix of wildly different games, this might not be the site for you, and you might prefer to search for a more general gambling site instead.
However, if you are a Spanish-speaking or Portuguese-speaking poker fan, this site will surely be of considerable interest to you. Not only will you find poker games and online tournaments, but there are also instructions on poker rules and strategies you can use to play a better game.
Safety and security
Like many other gambling sites, this one has a privacy policy. However, this one is remarkable in its honesty and detail. Instead of making black-and-white assurances of total confidentiality, this site takes the time to explain to whom your information might be given and under what circumstances.
Of course, many prospective players would also be worried about how safe their information is from phishing and hacking. This site takes pains to assure users that Intersafe Global is used to process and protect one’s transaction information.
Support
Players in Brazil, Colombia, and Argentina can make use of the toll-free numbers.
Language
This site is available in Spanish and Portuguese, and no other languages. That’s right, no English.
US Players
Sadly, US-based players are not welcome. Norteamericanos must go elsewhere.
