X-Poker is a club-based poker app — the app itself is free software, and the real-money games run inside independent, privately owned clubs, each managed by its own agent rather than by X-Poker as a company. There are four main clubs on the platform, spreading Hold'em and Omaha cash games from roughly $20 up to $1,000 buy-ins, plus OFC and 6+ tables for players who want something different.
Because each club sets its own rake and its own promotions, the experience varies a lot depending on which club and agent you play under — which is exactly why going in through a trusted agent matters more here than on a licensed site. The standard rake structure across most clubs runs around 5% capped at 3 big blinds, using a weighted-contributed "no flop, no drop" model.
The traffic is the real draw: X-Poker's tables are known for being genuinely soft, without the reg-infested feel you get on bigger licensed networks. HUDs and trackers are generally allowed, though auto-seating scripts and mining are not.
