About CoinPoker
Unlike most online poker sites that aren’t accessible to players in all countries, CoinPoker takes advantage of cryptocurrency to be completely decentralized and open globally.
New players can open an account in minutes from any country with minimal ID requirements, and place bets at the tables using USDT which is equivalent to US dollars.
Founded in 2017, CoinPoker has built a strong reputation as a safe online poker site, licensed in Curacao and producing a complete report on coinpoker.com of its proof of reserves visible on the blockchain - another advantage of crypto is that players can see for themselves that user deposits are segregated and secure, held in ringfenced cold storage wallets.
No advanced knowledge of crypto is required to play however, with the downloadable software and app being simple and easy to use, and available for Windows, Android or iOS.
CoinPoker also partners with industry leading security company Fireblocks which provides multi-auth vaults for user funds, and utilizes Ethereum’s cryptographic hash function to verify the randomness of its RNG at the tables.
Its poker stakes range from as low as $0.02/$0.05 to as high as $500/$1000, occasionally even higher in special exhibition matches - CoinPoker famously hosted the largest online poker pot in history in a $5000/$10000 Pot Limit Omaha cash game.
Tournament buy-ins also range from completely free up to $25,000, such as during the site’s flagship tournament series the CSOP - crypto series of poker.
Game types include Pot Limit Omaha, No Limit Hold’em, Sit and Go tournaments and multi-table tournaments (MTTs) with new formats and promotions constantly on offer. Fans of casino games will also find those - as well as being a poker site CoinPoker also has an attached casino.
Many notable online poker professionals are also CoinPoker ambassadors or partners - including Jonathan Little, Charlie Carrell, Patrick ‘Pads’ Leonard, and the aforementioned Tony G and Mario Mosböck - keeping Carl Froch in good company.
