In relation to other
poker rooms, PlayersOnly is quite new but has proven to quickly build a solid network of players and promotions. Since a lot of
poker rooms do not allow US players, PlayersOnly takes the opposite approach and is for US and Canadian players only.
Depositing Methods
PlayersOnly makes depositing a very simple process whereby they can process any US issued
credit card without any hassles. Within a couple of minutes, your deposit can be issued without the hassles of setting up an e-wallet. This is a unique aspect of PlayersOnly and is a definite plus in my book.
Software
The PlayersOnly software is a simplistic system which is easy to navigate making it easy to find anything you need. The table graphics are okay, not too flashy but it does the job. Response times are quite fast so in general, the betting, auto posting and game play overall is smooth. There is a limitation of being able to play at 4 tables at once which hopefully will be increased in future.
Player Skills
Since PlayersOnly poker has players that switch over from spotsbook, racebook and
casino, you'll find that a lot of the players are very loose and inexperienced. It is also a relatively young poker room with promotions that attract a lot of inexperienced players looking into learning about poker. With the overall inexperience across the board, PlayersOnly is a great place to take advantage and do well.
Customer Service
PlayersOnly poker offer chat, email and phone support in addition to self help. We found that the chat and phone support options were very helpful and the email response times is quite fast (within 1-2 days response).
