Topic: Where to play poker with crypto ? (Read 660 times)

You have mentioned some casinos indeed, but all of them are not providing the game which is OP want to play.
Anyway, do you know what is the game wanted by OP of this thread? You dont, am I right?
As if you know and understand it, you would not mention Stake, Roobet, Rollbit and freebitcoin because what OP want to play is pvp poker since he said "poker room" while the casinos you mentioned previously are not providing pvp poker game.

Compared to real poker, video poker is "something like a poker-themed slot machine". I totally agree with you on this one.


But in slots holding some reals is never free, isn't it? You have to pay something for holding those reals, and sometimes it's 10 times of your initial bet, so, I'm not sure if it's really the same or not.



From my experience, it is easier to hit something higher in video poker than in real poker. For example, just recently there was a video poker challenge on one site, where you had to hit four of a kind faces, meaning that only kings, queens and jacks count, and many people, including me, succeeded in that. You play real poker, so you have an idea how unlikely it is there, right?



It is very true, you don't have that many options in video poker, but still, if  you know at least basic rules and you know what cards is better to hold, you have better chances of winning than with spinning it like slots.

For me the most interesting gambling game is poker. But I have never used crypto for betting in this game. Sometimes I meet up with friends and we play poker. We make small bets. No one's goal is to make money in this game. Our main goal in poker is communication and having fun.

There are many different types of slots, to start from the number of reels and lines to the ones that have some special features. I said that video poker is  "something like a poker-themed slot machine"... and basically it is. 5 reels, one line... with the first spin you decide which reels to hold for the next spin, and after that, you either have a hand or not (there are not many, but there are slots where you can hold the reels, but it costs extra). If you have a hand you can gamble for more and play hi & lo. Something that many slots have... feature to gamble with your winnings.

From my experience, you can chase whatever you want but without luck (as in slots) you will not get anything! 50-100 hands without 3 of a kind, to not speak about something higher. Simply if you decide to go for "good hands" you will miss many hands that would actually pay off and give you the chance to gamble for more. A simple example is 4 of the same color with an ace and a king... so you either risk and go for flush, or to try to get at least a pair holding just an ace and king, which has a higher chance to come of course. And you are a poker player, how many times have you had 4 of the same color and you waited for that 5 but it didn't come? I guess in video poker, our chances are even lower, video poker has RTP.

Simply you don't have many options in video poker, it's just hand after hand and you either hit something good or not. Like spinning slots...

For people who like these games and wish for an extra thrill, I advise trying Caribean poker. Unlike video poker, you have a chance to raise or fold, but it's a lot more expensive than video poker, and actually requires some kind of strategy and poker skills. But it's also a poker against the house, so a lot depends on luck and the next card you will get!

For you maybe yes but about those people who prefers other crypto than what they currently list? Another thing about them is why they auto-convert cryptos to USD? I guess this wasn't really a full crypto site but they just partially support crypto, maybe for the sake of their regular fiat costumers as some of them may want to try out crypto for a while.

KYC is also one of the problem of most crypto users. It's not that they are one of those who do an abuse but they simply want to be anonymous. Some won't really mind doing it but they have this little doubt in mind that what if there are hacks that happened one day and then their data's will be leaked out?

Yes, and I have mentioned several lists of the most popular and trusted crypto casino names. Hopefully, the crypto casino names I mentioned can be used as a reference for OP to choose one of these casinos.
But before that, if you wanted to read and find out the information in this forum, I'm sure that without having to ask, you would be able to find an answer.
In this forum, there has been a lot of information and promotions about good and trusted crypto casinos.
So it's not a thing if you can't find a crypto casino in a forum full of a million pieces of information you need.

GGpoker network offers btc, usdc and usdt as deposit and withdrawal option, so this should be the clear number 1 in my eyes.

Obviously the crypto gets converted into us$ but still, it's a far better alternative to the other sites.

SWC has 0 traffic, on weekends there are 250-300 players online, that's just ridiculous. The software is great thought. But the rake is also a little high. Betnomi just has a terrible software in my eyes.

GGpoker and natural8, both in the gg network, have 100000 players online often so that's unbeatable in terms of games and tournaments if you want to use crypto. I wonder why stars and party didn't jump on the train yet.

Needless to say, gg does require KYC though, but that's a goo thing, no KYC in poker opens the door for multi-accounting at it's best.

Actually it's still a question to me whether Video poker is absolutely the same as slots, where you can't affect the outcome in any way. Like, for example, if you were always ignoring a good hand, like a full house or four of a kind, or even better, that were given to you, and were holding nothing, but were exchanging all the cards all the time, would the result after, say, 50 games, be the same as if you were holding the "good" cards? I read that skillful poker players have significantly higher odds of winning, but I'm not sure if that is the case in reality.

As for SWC, I support you. Currently it's one of the best sites to play crypto poker, from my experience.

Yeah, Video poker and "Poker" specifically are not the same. Video poker is just a casino game like slots while Poker is a game of skill which one may also find in a casino but it is PvP. Regarding sites that have poker with crypto. My only recommendation is SWC. They have been there for a very long time and from the ones I've tried. The only one I trust.

Have you ever played poker at Stake or Rollbit? Video poker is not "poker", it's something like a poker-themed slot machine...

Actually, there are not many options for crypto poker... Most crypto poker places have very low traffic. And yes, Betnomi is "doing some poker tournaments" , Rollbit organizes many things, but not poker games.

To play poker in general terms with crypto there are many options. For me, stake.com is the best platform to do it, there are many sites that are on the forum that are good, they have a high reputation, but if you ask me for my opinion, I would definitely say that stake.com is the best for me, but there are many other options, what many are looking for is the platform that can offer them an option for PVP poker games, they feel that there are more chances to win, betnomi is one of the sites that I recommend for this, they do some tournaments, and I think Rollbit, I don't remember exactly, but they were organizing something.

That's right, currently, SwC Poker and Betnomi are the best places to play poker with crypto. Although I understand that there are can be other good places, I don't understand why should anyone be looking for them when you already have two great platforms tested and vouched for by many respected members of this forum? I mean, seriously, what can be the reason for looking for yet another place to play poker?

Right recommendation for now on Betnomi, most of the people in this forum use this platform, on this platform have good tournaments. recently we found a good site that is Swc, maybe I'm new to it, but this site has been used by people in this forum for a long time. for now I think these are the two best sites/platforms, there are some other platforms that might be good, but I don't know about the quality of these other platforms.

But in terms of looking for a poker room, it's better for you to visit BTCgosu, you can try it they have gambling sites and poker rooms.

So many people got screwed because of KYC and that is because they underestimate the faq page or the terms of use page. If not about the KYC, there are also small gamblers who lost their deposit because they didn't knew that there is a minimum deposit on that casino. They are lucky if the casino will return their money but I think most of them won't do that. They have the right to do so and it can also act as a lesson to the irresponsible gamblers.

A lot of users here won't just comment a casino name without providing some descriptions or a short review but it will be better if we can double check it our selves because they might miss something or some of did are only lying/shilling.

Other members gave already the gambling casino they preferred and I guess better to take a look and check to get easier to you where to play try to visit their announcement thread and reputation to make sure there's no issue regarding this kind of deposit because sometimes people keep depositing without getting notice with their faqs and terms and conditions to make sure there's no possibility of trouble might happen in terms of deposits or withdrawals.

You have now mentioned some site names.  But you didn't in the previous post.  Yes I am a member of this forum and many old members it's not my mater.  op is also a member of this forum but he doesn't know how to find good poker games so asked here.  If he had known good poker himself after finding it in the forum, he wouldn't have asked here  lol . If you don't mention any names then how will op understand ?

Yes, you are right, the two casinos can still be trusted and can be used as a place to play.
But every individual's choice is different and we don't know what kind of casino they are looking for.
As for the bonuses themselves, almost all casino sites give bonuses to each of their users, but with a different amount depending on the length and size of the site user's bet.


But actually I don't comment on things that don't need to be talked about and without evidence.
I'm only giving reviews about the many trusted online casino sites and I'm sure many of you already know this in this forum.
For example, Stake.com, Rollbit, FreeBitcoin, Roobet and many more.
If you really want to know, you can see from the signature code used by other accounts in this forum.

Of course there are many more trusted sites apart from these sites to play poker games but these two sites are very well known and trusted in this forum so I am supporting these two but since you are saying that there are many more trusted sites then you must share their link or name.  You should not comment unnecessarily without any evidence . Because here the OP has only searched for some sites.  So you must find him some sites to comment on.

I still find the poker game difficult because I tried many times but didn't get it. I'm more familiar with slots, dice and crash games because it's easier to play. And many casinos have those games so I can choose the casino easily. And those two casinos have the games I mentioned because I've played at Winz.io and FortuneJack.

I think the two casinos can be trusted and used as a favorite place to play gambling next to other trusted casinos, especially since they have been operating for a long time. And I'm sure there are still many gamblers who find comfort in playing at both casinos because they often get promotions from both casinos, including me

This thread can help people who want to find a casino they can turn to as another place to play poker. The two casinos are often also used as a reference for people who have not found a casino that suits them other than recommending other casinos. But before they play poker, they must have learned the basic lessons of playing poker so they can follow it well. But I choose to play other gambling games

I've been playing on SWC for many years and, I don’t know how they do it, but I've never encountered bots or colluding players there. I mean, if you play online poker for long enough, you can easily spot a bot. Now, with colluding players it's a bit harder, but after an hour of playing with them you can spot them too.

I think that your concerns are valid overall, and you did the right thing warning poker players, but for me SwC Poker is the last site I would be worried about such things happening there.
