Players Only Poker Review

Full Player's Only Poker Review

Since 1997 Players Only has given players the opportunity to bet on their favorite teams, casino and poker games. And if having access to all of these options wasn't enough, Players Only made the move to the Merge Network in 2012. So now you have all of these options plus better software, a larger pool of fish to play against and several guaranteed tournaments running every month. To me, that makes Players Only worth checking out.

Playing Poker at PlayersOnly.ag for Real Money

US players are allowed to play for real money at Players Only. The exception are the states that have stricter laws, such as Kentucky, Maryland and Washington. If you're not sure if your state is allowed, the best way to find out is to visit the sign-up page and see if your state is in the dropdown box. If so, you're able to play at Players Only.

Creating an account is a simple process. You'll first need to fill out your details (address, email, screen name, etc), then you'll be asked to download the software. Players Only has downloads for both PCs and Macs, so no one will be excluded from playing on their unique software, enjoying features like rabbit hunting, smilies/emoticons, showing one card or running hands twice.

Your Players Only account can be funded using Visa, MasterCard, cash transfers and cashiers checks. Players Only is known for their high credit card acceptance rate, so I'd recommend starting there first. Deposit limits are $20 to $1,000 per day. The limits are $50 to $2500 for withdrawals.

Players Only Bonuses and Rewards

Players Only offers all new players bonus money when they make their first deposit. They will match 100% of your first deposit up to $650. For example, if you deposit $400, Players Only will bonus you $400.

To earn the bonus you'll need to play real money games, pay rake and earn points. For every 75 points that you generate you will earn $1 of your bonus. The bonus will be paid to you in $5 (375 points) increments and you'll have 90 days to clear the entire amount. That shouldn't be too difficult though, since you earn 1 point for every $.10 in rake you pay. So you'll receive your bonus every $37.50 you spend.

In addition to the deposit bonus, first-time depositors will receive a coupon which is good for an entry into their $500 welcome freeroll. This tournament runs every Wednesday and is a good way to get your bankroll started.

Other Players Only Promotions

Other Players Only promos include:

Ace High VIP Program - The Ace High VIP program consists of 13 levels, one for each card in the deck. Levels 2 through 6 will reward players with $250-$750 freerolls. Once you get to level 7 you'll be able to exchange points for cash. The lowest amount you can receive is $5 and the maximum is $900. You can exchange points for cash up to 3 times in one month. The freerolls are bigger at the higher levels, too.

Players Only also runs leaderboards, giving MTT and SNG players the opportunity to earn a piece of $20k and $12k prize pools. Cash is awarded to both the top finishes, as well as players who go on winning streaks.

What Poker Games Can You Play at Players Only?

The games offered at Players Only include holdem, omaha, stud, razz and draw. Holdem is by far the favorite, having a 2-1 lead in terms of traffic over omaha. Cash game stakes run from .01/.02 to 30/60.

There is a variety of tournaments too. Tournament variations include satellite, bounty, shoot out, deep stacks, rebuys and guarantees. Their biggest guarantees include the Sunday Big Ticket ($100k) and Sunday $215 ($70k). You can buy into both of these directly, with points or satellite in.

The Merge Network is also known for their casino side games. You can play games like blackjack, video poker and roulette, and all of these games can be accessed through the lobby. You also earn points for playing, although they won't count towards clearing bonuses and other promotions.

How to Contact Customer Support at Players Only

Players Only has a large FAQ section on their site covering things like banking options, how to play poker, what types of features their software has and common technical problems. So if you have any questions I'd recommend starting there.

However, if you need to contact Players Only they are there 24/7/365. You can use the following methods to get in touch:

• Email: pitboss@playersonly.ag
• Phone (US): 1-800-372-0333
• Live chat.

I contacted support using the live chat feature and waited no more than 3 minutes to be helped. The rep was both friendly and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend going the live chat route first, if possible.
