All figures reflect recent in-room and online offerings and are subject to change.

GGPoker, run by the NSUS Group on the GGNetwork, has grown into one of the largest online rooms in the world and carries the biggest cash-game traffic anywhere. It is the official online partner of the World Series of Poker, which means WSOP bracelets are dealt on its software. The review counts 182 tournaments and the largest fast-fold pool in this list at 101 tables.

The poker you will find at GGPoker

The core games are Texas Hold'em, Pot Limit Omaha and short-deck, with Rush & Cash providing the fast-fold format and Spin & Gold covering the lottery sit-and-gos. The client is feature-heavy - built-in staking, a smart heads-up display and playful table tools - which sets it apart from the more traditional UK rooms.

Whichever format you choose, the game itself is standard: the hand rankings and the flow of a betting round are the same here as at every other room, which is exactly what the free practice tables on this site let you rehearse. What changes from room to room is the surrounding software, the traffic and the extra formats each one spreads.

What sets GGPoker apart

GGPoker's standout is scale plus the WSOP tie-in: online bracelet events and huge guaranteed series run alongside the deepest everyday cash traffic online. It holds UK Gambling Commission licence 47768.

New-player offer (for reference): New players: deposit £10 for £60 in Free Play (released as you play). Bonuses change often and always carry terms - wagering, expiry and format restrictions - so treat this as a snapshot, not advice to sign up.

How to read this profile

PDC Poker is a free practice lounge, not a gambling site: this page does not link out to GGPoker or point you toward a deposit. It exists to explain who runs the online game and how the rooms differ, as background for the free tables and strategy guides here.

Networks and licences change hands over time, so read the figures above as a recent snapshot of the industry rather than a live directory. When you are ready to test what you have learned, the practice tables cost nothing and carry no risk.

GGPoker: common questions

Is GGPoker really the WSOP online partner?

Yes. GGPoker is the official online home of the World Series of Poker, hosting online bracelet events on its own GGNetwork software.

What is Rush & Cash?

Rush & Cash is GGPoker's fast-fold format - fold and you are moved instantly to a new table, the same idea as Zoom or fastforward elsewhere.

How big is GGPoker's cash-game traffic?

The deepest everyday cash pool online, per the recent reviewer data behind this profile - 210+ tables counted in the lobby, with games running around the clock across a global player base.

What is Spin & Gold?

GGPoker's jackpot sit-and-go: a short-handed game where a random multiplier sets the prize before the cards are dealt. It fills the same quick-hit slot that SPINS fill on partypoker.

What is the GGNetwork?

The network GGPoker sits on - established in 2014, it pools players from a family of rooms worldwide into one set of tables, and GGPoker is its flagship brand. The scale of that shared pool is what drives the traffic figures in this profile.

Are the online WSOP bracelets real bracelets?

Yes. The World Series of Poker awards genuine bracelets for its official online events hosted on GGPoker - the same trophy status as a live Las Vegas bracelet, won from a laptop.

Should a beginner start at the biggest room?

Scale cuts both ways: constant action, but enormous fields and plenty of strong regulars. Learning the rankings, odds and betting flow at free practice tables first costs nothing - and the game itself is identical.

Who owns GGPoker?

GGPoker is operated by NSUS Group, and its tables run on the GGNetwork - the player pool described in this profile. Ownership and network arrangements change hands over time, so treat this as a recent snapshot.

Is GGPoker safe and licensed?

GGPoker holds a UK Gambling Commission licence (account 47768), which requires segregated player funds, age and identity checks, and access to independent dispute resolution. This page is background reading rather than an endorsement - licences change, so check the UKGC public register for current status.
