How to play

Getting a seat in 60 seconds

  1. Register with an email and password, or sign in with a wallet. No download — the table runs in your browser on desktop and phone.
  2. Play money is instant. You start with 10,000 play chips, topped up every four hours. Bots keep play-money tables open around the clock; they are always labelled.
  3. Real money: deposit USDT or USDC on Tron, Solana or Polygon from the cashier. Your balance is credited after network confirmation, usually within minutes. Withdrawals go only to an address you have verified with two-factor authentication.

The games

No-Limit Hold'em. Two hole cards, five community cards, make the best five. Bet any amount up to your stack at any time.

Pot-Limit Omaha (4 and 5 card). Four or five hole cards; you must use exactly two of them with exactly three from the board. Bets are capped at the size of the pot.

Short-deck (6+). Hold'em with the 2s–5s removed. A flush beats a full house, and A-6-7-8-9 is the lowest straight.

Fast-fold. Fold and you are instantly moved to a new table with a new hand. No waiting.

Sit & Go. A single-table tournament that starts when the seats fill.

Tournaments. Scheduled multi-table events with rising blinds, late registration, re-entry where listed, and knockout bounties in PKO events.

Spins. Three-player hyper-turbo with a prize multiplier drawn before the first hand from the published table.

All-in or fold. Eight big blinds, two buttons. The purest decision in poker.

Verifying a hand

Every hand can be verified. Open any hand in your history and choose Verify — the page recomputes the shuffle from the seed we committed to before the hand and shows that it matches. See Security & Fair Play.

Rake

Cash games: 5% of the pot, capped at 3 big blinds, and never from a pot that ends before the flop. Tournaments and sit & gos: 8% of the buy-in (10% under 5 USDT). Spins: 7%. The full schedule is at /rules/rake.
