1.) No direct buy-in: Every poker contest here is either completely free or requires a small deposit and wager (1x-2x). If you are gambling anyway, you are just getting a free entry. 1x wagering is nothing and if you win during wagering, it is all yours Grin

. On the other hand, if you play poker elsewhere, you have to pay your buy-in no matter what, without any chance of getting it back.

2.) No rake: You can not beat rake in poker. All the events here are rake-free. So why pay rake when you can play without it?

3.) Hanging out with familiar ~~faces~~ usernames: This is the biggest plus. We are having a great time chatting during the game. This is making our community here even stronger.

4.) Become a part of the decision-making process: You can suggest any changes you like, and it will be acknowledged. Noticed some foul play? You can report that, and it will be discussed thoroughly.

5.) Soft field: Well, honestly, this one is subjective, but IMO the competition here is much lower than any other poker platform, and fun is twice Grin

Well, I probably wouldn't go as far as calling them profitable, but that depends on who the usual winners are in the poker games. Tongue

It is a bit more friendly and community-driven. But the same rules and dimensions apply to any Bitcointalk poker game as they do for any regular online gambling casino poker games.

But you are right to say it's more fun when playing with familiar names from the Bitcointalk forum.
