Players Only Poker Review

PlayersOnly.com is a very new poker room that launched in 2006. They joined the Cake network right from the start, so they already have good traffic at both ring games and tournaments. As I mentioned before, Players Only accepts USA players, and you should also know that they accept Canadian players as well. When Players first launched, due to an agreement wit Golden Palace Casino, they only accepted players from the USA and Canada. However, they now accept players from all over the world.

So now all poker players can sign up at PlayersOnly and claim their sign up bonus. They offer a special sign up bonus for poker depositors, which is 100% up to $650 on your first deposit. What this means is that you'll get a bonus dollar for every dollar you deposit, up to $650. Of course, you have to clear the money before it is yours to withdraw/wager.

To clear the bonus money, you have to earn 166.6 FPPs for every $10 in bonus you have. To earn FPPs, you simply need to play for real money at the poker site. You can earn FPPs by playing real money ring games, real money sit and go's, or real money MTT's. At ring games, you'll earn one FPP for every dollar that is raked, as long as you were dealt into the hand. Fractional points are awarded, so if the pot is raked $1.50 you'll earn 1.5 FPPs (assuming you were dealt into the hand).

In sit and go's/multi table tournaments you'll earn 7 FPPs for every dollar you pay in tournament fees. So if you enter a $20+$2 sit and go, you'll earn 14 FPPs. Learn more about the PlayersOnly poker bonus.

Besides just a bonus, PlayersOnly has plenty more to offer to poker players. First of all, their software is outstanding. They recently upgraded the software to be more sleek and easy to use, and I have to say they did a great job. When you open the lobby you'll see a list of all the available tables, which can be filtered down using a bunch of options including stakes, betting limits, and game type. Also, you can quickly navigate to find sit and go's and multi table tournaments.

PlayersOnly offers outstanding customer support, including live chat, email support, and 24/7 phone support. The live chat is really awesome because you don't have to hold on the phone, and you don't even have to speak to anyone. You just get your answers instantly and correctly.

If you're in the USA or Canada, you can easily deposit and withdraw with tons of easy options including credit cards (Visa or MasterCard) and cash transfers, and you can withdraw conveniently via courier's check.

Another aspect of PlayersOnly.com's poker room that I love is their player rewards program. They have the same Gold Chips/Gold Cards system as Cake Poker, and everyone I know really loves the system. How it works is that you earn Gold Chips by accumulating FPPs, and the more Gold Chips you acquire the more rewards you earn, including free tournament tickets, real life merchandise, or even real life trips to major events like the WSOP main event and the WPT tour.

The Gold Card system is even more fun. As you're playing real money ring tables, you'll randomly be awarded a Gold Card based on the rake accumulation rate. If the gold card that pops up matches a card in your hand, you'll earn that gold card. The first player to accumulate 52 gold cards receives a $52,000 grand prize, and there are smaller prizes for other players as well. The competition restarts about every 4 months - it restarts right when a player reaches 52 gold cards.

Of course PlayersOnly also runs normal satellites to the major live events that everyone would expect. You can win your WSOP seat, your WPT seat, your EPT seat, and much more right at the PlayersOnly.com poker room. Buy-ins start at just dollars, so you can make your own Chris Moneymaker story right at PlayersOnly.com. Good luck!
