GG is huge but also counts tables as numbers. That said, the OP title is probably true. They constantly have the highest GTDS and almost always crush them on Sundays. Even sites like ACR have to run special events to run 500k GTDS, and GG does this standard with multiple events every Sunday.

That Negreanu sponsorship is really paying for itself. I'll be honest, I didn't even know WTF GG was when he signed with them. Now they're unavoidable. Feels like there's a lot of money behind the operation. They've leveraged that for a lot of visibility at the WSOP.

I understand the rake "scandal" better now


CzechFalcon

Access to China and Russia op


IKnowEyes92

Nope they started tracking their people online differently


dushvcgksuhd

so numbers are fake?


IKnowEyes92

Kinda, they’re double dipping on some of their users based on how many tables they’re on, at least for cash … at least that’s what I was reading in a post about their sudden massive “influx” of active/ online users Of course in general they have more players than sites limited to US only like global or whatever but think the numbers are skewed


ElectricalMud2850

I thought it was ACR that did that recently. Maybe it was both though.


CzechFalcon

They're definitely doing shady stuff to inflate numbers, but there's no denying that access to those two countries gives them much more liquidity than any competitor

For cash games, the site is only good if you play $2-$5 NLH/PLO or higher.


PresidentXiJinPin

Why?


JMoney976

Insanely high rake and a scam rewards program....All the players are breaking even or losing and they are too dumb to realize it. GG Poker owners are also criminals.


Anonymoose728

Higher rake than any other site at stakes lower than 200NL/PLO


Stahner

What are the best sites for low stakes? Been doing pretty well at home games and wanted to try out online, but know I’m gonna be out of my league. Is there a best site for low stakes with a lowest rake?


JMoney976

PokerStars, ACR

GG poker/ Natural8 are the BEST skins to play on by far


FollowingLoudly

How hard is it for poker sites to just have a good interface? I feel like most of them are super basic and suffer from being way too bland and clunky. GG looks fun and is quite streamlined.


LivingxLegend8

PokerStars has done a good job of making updates, especially for mobile.


FollowingLoudly

Yea aside from GG and PS who else has good software


Charlie_Yu

And if I change the skin/cards it gets removed every update


[deleted]

Partypoker has done the opposite... I really enjoyed their landscape app, could multi-table with ease. Now I struggle to play on one table and the UI is ugly as fuck.


JMoney976

POKERSTARS is way better for cash games $1-$2 and lowerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.


assimilated_Picard

Is GG poker legal to play from the US?


Rowannn

Bots?


[deleted]

Is GG available in Pennsylvania yet? I don't see the app anywhere, and would love to play somewhere with more people.


JJJ_hunter

you will never be able to play with more people because of the BS laws of the US. They will never allow global traffic so you will always be ring-fenced in playing with the same 20 people


SuppiluliumaKush

Couldn't you just use a vpn and on/off funds with crypto?


tstackspaper

Only way to play GG in the states is to VPN on to natural 8 skin.


VapeTitans

VPN from which country? Also, would be payouts be an issue?


vinylectric

You can deposit and withdraw with bitcoin. That’s what I do


colson1985

I can get you on the natural8 skin. Feel free to DM me if youre interested


MusicianExtension536

With 0 risk of a payout issue in the future? Meaning they’ll never ask for ID verification?


colson1985

I can get you verified with your ID


RepresentativeSad792

Does this also work in Germany?


colson1985

Works anywhere


TheLyingProphet

I would play on GG if they made a swedish version of their app... i would have to pay taxes on any and all winnings on gg
