Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions govern your use of Online Poker (sakratom.com). By browsing this site, reading our reviews, or clicking through to any operator we cover, you accept the terms set out below. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.

What This Site Is — And What It Isn't

Online Poker is an independent comparison and review resource covering real money online poker sites and apps available to US players. We publish rankings, mini reviews, comparison tables and guides such as our Best Online Poker Sites for Real Money Players page to help readers weigh up where to play.

We are not a poker operator, a licensed gambling business, or a payment processor. We don't accept deposits, run games, or handle player funds. Every brand named on this site — including Coinpoker, Bovada, Stake, Ignition, Americas Card Room, Black Chip Poker, Ya Poker, BC Poker, Betonline and Jack Poker — operates independently of Online Poker, under its own licensing, terms and policies. Always read an operator's own terms before signing up or depositing.

Commercial Disclosure

Online Poker earns money through affiliate partnerships. If you click through to an operator from this site and later create an account, we may receive a commission from that operator. This comes at no extra cost to you, and it does not change the price, odds or terms you're offered.

Commission never decides our rankings or editorial ratings. An operator paying to appear on this site, or paying a higher commission rate, does not move it up our tables — positions reflect our own editorial assessment, described below.

How We Assess and Rank Poker Sites

Our editorial ratings are built from publicly available and researched information about each operator, weighed against factors that matter to real money poker players: reported traffic and player pool depth, the range of formats on offer (cash games, MTTs, Sit & Gos, Spin & Go and fast-fold variants), rake and rakeback structures, welcome offers and their attached conditions, deposit and withdrawal options relevant to US players, mobile app quality, and licensing or regulatory standing where applicable.

We do not claim to have deposited or played on every operator listed. Where we describe features, bonuses or limits, that information is based on research and is accurate as of the fact-check date shown on this page — 9 September 2026 — but operators change their terms without notice, so always confirm current offers directly with the site before relying on them.

Bonus and Promotion Terms

Headline offers shown on this site, such as deposit matches or welcome packages, are illustrative of what an operator advertises at the time of writing. They typically carry conditions — minimum deposit amounts, playthrough or wagering requirements, time limits to clear the bonus, and eligibility restrictions by state or region. We do not control these terms and cannot guarantee they remain unchanged after publication. The operator's own terms and conditions always take precedence over anything summarized here.

Age and Eligibility

Real money poker is restricted to adults of legal gambling age. Most US states that regulate online poker set the minimum age at 21; a small number permit play from 18. This site is not intended for, and must not be used by, anyone under the applicable legal age in their state. Online poker is regulated on a state-by-state basis in the US — there is no federal framework — so availability, licensing and legal status vary depending on where you live. It is your responsibility to confirm that real money poker is legal in your jurisdiction before signing up with any operator.

No Guarantee of Outcome

Nothing on Online Poker should be read as a promise, guarantee or implication that playing poker will result in winnings or income. Poker involves skill, but outcomes are uncertain and losing money is a real possibility every time you play. We do not present any operator, bonus or strategy as a way to make money reliably, and readers should never treat it as one.

Responsible Gambling

We want readers to make informed, unpressured decisions. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, set limits before you play, and stop if it stops being fun. If gambling is causing problems for you or someone close to you, free and confidential help is available around the clock through the National Council on Problem Gambling helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER. Many states also run their own self-exclusion programs through licensed operators — these are worth using if you need a break, and we don't publish content intended to work around them. See our Responsible Gambling page for more resources.

Accuracy and Limitation of Liability

We take care to keep reviews, ratings and offer details accurate and up to date, but we make no warranty that content on this site is complete, error-free or current at the moment you read it. Ratings reflect editorial opinion, not a guarantee of an operator's quality, financial stability, or licensing status. Online Poker is not liable for losses, damages or disputes arising from decisions made using information on this site, including bonus terms, deposit or withdrawal issues, or account actions taken by third-party operators.

Intellectual Property

The text, comparisons, ratings and layout on Online Poker belong to us or our licensors and may not be copied, republished or scraped without permission. Operator names, logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used here for identification and comparison purposes only.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms as the site, its content or applicable regulations change. The date shown at the top of this page reflects the last update. Continued use of Online Poker after changes are published means you accept the revised terms.
