New to rakeback? Here's what this means for you

You're already paying a small fee (called rake) every hand you play, whether you notice it or not. Signing up through the link below gets a portion of that paid back to you — same games, same odds, just less left on the table. Read the full explainer →

TigerGaming is the Chico Poker Network's rest-of-world facing skin — the network's other two well-known brands, BetOnline and SportsBetting Poker, are primarily US-facing, so TigerGaming is typically the natural entry point for players outside that market.

It shares the network's full liquidity, promotions, and software, and inherits the same defining trait that's kept Chico's games soft for over two decades: poker sits alongside a much larger sportsbook and casino offering, pulling in a player base that's there for the broader gambling experience rather than dedicated grinding.

Games run the standard mix of cash tables and tournaments, with a client geared toward simplicity over the deep feature sets you'd find on more poker-dedicated networks.

From My Own Play

I started playing there in 2015. Back then there was this crazy “bug” where if you timed out postflop, your hand would auto-fold instead of check (which is the normal behavior on other sites) — and the timebank was very short. I remember more than a few times having the nuts on the river and getting timed out because I was busy with action on another table. Funny now, not so funny back then.

Thankfully that's in the past — the bug got fixed. The big change Chico made was raising their rake in 2023, which drove a lot of players away. I still like playing there, though — you sometimes run into genuinely huge whales from the US. You just need to table-select a bit harder and you'll be fine.
