Contrary to an ideal photon laser, deviation from unity in the second and third order coherence functions is observed, thus showing a bunching effect, but not the characteristics of a standard thermal state with $g^{(n)}(0)=n!$. The increase of bunching with the order of the coherence function, $g^{(3)}(0) > g^{(2)}(0)>1$, indicates that the polariton condensate is different from coherent state, number state and thermal state.
