PlayersOnly Poker

Short Description

PlayersOnly is a part of the Cake Poker network where it holds company to such major online poker rooms as the Doyle's Room, Sportsbook Poker, PokerWorld and, of course, the Cake Poker room. When in the lobby you may choose between NL, PL and FL Texas Hold'em, Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo – all the main poker games. The amount of tournaments is quite high and players may choose between S&G's, freerolls, satellites or even create their own tournament. So no issues for the tournament lovers. The number of tables available is also rather high, therefore no searching of where to sit is necessary. The only requirement is to come and enjoy your game.

Limit and Rake Structure

The limits at PlayersOnly Texas Hold'em games vary from $0.02/$0.04 to some impressive $500/$1,000 action. Omaha also starts at $0.02/$0.04 and grows until $300/$600, whereas Omaha Hi/Lo beginning with the same $0.02/$0.04 stops at $30/$60.

As most of the online poker rooms PlayersOnly keeps to the 'no flop, no drop' idea, by not collecting the rake if the flop has not been dealt. However, the rake that is taken depends on the limits of the game, the size of the pot and the number of players involved in the game, but it usually does not exceed the standard 5%. A 2-3 player NL Texas Hold'em $10/$20 game would be raked at 5% up to $1, though the same game might be raked at $2 with 4-5 players at the table and $3 if it is a full 6-player table. The highest possible rake at PlayersOnly is $5 which is reached only at the high limit tables with 3 or more players in the game.
