Flagship Anti-HUD Policy
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 →

GGPoker launched in 2017 as GG Network's international flagship, built from the earlier Good Game Network foundation. It's now the biggest single poker site in the world, and the main source of traffic across the entire network.

The room is built around recreational-friendly formats — Rush & Cash (its fast-fold format), Spin & Go's, and All-in-or-Fold — alongside a strict, actively enforced ban on HUDs and solver-assisted play at the tables. That policy is a genuine differentiator: it keeps the games noticeably softer than most competing networks, since regulars can't lean on tracking software the way they can elsewhere.

GGPoker also carries the WSOP brand for its major online series, running large-scale tournaments tied to the World Series of Poker name, alongside a deep regular tournament and cash game schedule across a wide range of stakes.

Rake & Rakeback

Cash game rake caps by stake & table size (NL Hold'em / PLO)
Stakes2p3p4p5–9p
NL2 – NL50$0.50$1.00$1.50$3.00
NL100 – NL200$1.00$1.50$2.00$3.50
NL500+$1.00$1.50$2.50$4.00
  • Rake is deducted before the flop rather than after, like most rooms — but only on hands that actually see a flop; pots that end preflop (e.g. everyone folds to a raise) aren’t raked at all
  • On the higher side overall compared to most other networks on this page
  • Player Value Index (PVI) adjusts individual rake/rakeback based on playing behaviour and overall value to the network
  • Ocean Rewards loyalty program (replacing the older Fish Buffet system): Tide Points move you up in tiers, with effective cashback typically landing in the 20%–40% range for active players
+ Additional VIP rakeback from TableFinder — on top of this room's own program, players who sign up through me get extra negotiated rakeback that isn't available by registering directly.

From My Own Play

Currently the biggest online poker site in the world, and I enjoy playing there. The action runs around the clock — there's no real dead period, since GG operates across Asia, Europe, and parts of the Americas, so you can pretty much always find some weaker players.

The rake here is on the higher side; they compensate for it with promotions, but you still need to be careful and table-select a bit harder than you would on some other international sites where the rake runs lower.
