Players Only
Soft competition on nearly all levels
Great multitabling options
Round-the-clock traffic
Reliable support with live chat
Established in 2006, and licensed to offer online gambling services by the government of Antigua, Players Only Poker is one of the handful of online poker sites that continues to accept new, real money member accounts for online poker players residing in the US.

The VIP program at Players Only Poker offers 5 tiers of rewarding bonuses, exclusive freerolls, and cash back for players of all levels and abilities.

The online poker software is developed and maintained by Merge, and provides patrons of Players Only Poker with a reliable and secure online poker platform. The graphics are pleasantly crafted, yet not so abundant or over-the-top as to interfere with playability. All of the standard features online poker players are accustomed to are present, including notes, history, deck options, and the ability to play multiple tables at once.

The searchable knowledge base at Player Only Poker provides players with a great deal of information that can answer most questions that new players at Players only Poker might have about the software, security, deposit and withdrawal methods, and general questions regarding the installation and use of the Players Only Poker software. Players Only Poker also employs a 24 hour customer support team that may be reached by telephone, email, or live chat. Players in North America can call the Players Only Poker support phone toll free.

Still relatively new to the online poker market, Players Only Poker has made great strides over the last few years in terms of online poker offerings and traffic growth. Presently, Players Only Poker is one of the softest online poker sites available to online poker players in the US, with viewed-flop percentages comparable to the most notoriously juicy poker sites based in the EU that are currently closed to the US population.

The Merge network is continuing to draw crowds of new players with little to no experience at playing online poker, as well as gamblers of chance streaming in from the online casinos who are more likely to take chances and ignore the statistics. This level of competition provides more disciplined poker players more profitable opportunities, even up into the medium stakes of online poker.

Overall, Players Only Poker offers a solid product, with great support, a rewarding VIP program, excellent guaranteed tournaments, and plenty of loose action. For US players who are looking for softer competition with good traffic, a satisfying tournament schedule, and a strong online poker software client, Players Only Poker delivers.

Upon verification that the Players Only Poker bonus code is valid, the Players Only Poker bonus will be instantly credited to the player's pending bonus account.

The Players Only Poker bonus is released in increments of $5 from the pending bonus account into the player's real money account.

Example Players Only Poker Bonus Scenario
Upon downloading and installing the Players Only Poker software to their computer, a new player signs up a user account with the online poker room. Making a first deposit of $200 into their account, the new player enters the Players Only Poker bonus code into the designated box before submitting their deposit information. The player has transferred $200 into their real money poker account, and Players Only Poker places $200 into the player's pending bonus account.

As the player joins in real money online poker games at Players Only Poker, they earn 1 VIP point for every $0.10 they pay in rake at the online cash game tables, and for $0.10 paid in tournament entry fees for sit and gos and multi-table tournaments. Once the player has accumulated 375 VIP points, $5 of the Players Only Poker bonus is released into the player's real money account. If the player manages to obtain a total of at least 15,000 VIP points within 90 days of qualifying for the Player Only Poker bonus, they will clear the entire $200 Players Only Poker bonus.
