Players only is a poker subsidary of the sportsbook.com, one of the largest gaming companies in the US. The skin is hosted on the Cake Poker network, and as such has many similiar features in game play and graphics. It does offer a clean, fast and reliable poker client. Traffic is good as Players only is one of the few sites to allow Visa deposits from US players, and its marketing campaign edges towards this market. The cash games can be quite juicy, although tournaments can take sometime to fill up.

     The software is basically the default skin that you get on the cake network. Its not as pretty as some other newer sites, but it does everything it says it does on the tin. Anyone familiar with Cake sites will find Players only easy to navigate around and the interface is not hard to get to grips with. Software is only available for windows users at present.

   Players Only is one of the few sites that accept credit card deposits from US players, and as such generates alot of traffic because of this. During peak hours you are likely to see around 4000-800 players on the tables.

Players only is a relatively small site compared with others in the market, and this reflects in the tournaments available. There are regular freerolls for new players however, and there are a variety of formats on offer. Players Only gives away over $3 million each month in guaranteed tournaments, with its flagship tournament being the monthly $150,000 guaranteed.

The site is still very small so there is nothing great in the way of promotions. There are good sign up bonuses and you can collect FPP (frequent player points) which can be converted to cash and paid directly back into your account.

   When you sign up for rakeback at Players Only through thepokerpod.com you will receive a 33% rakeback. You will also be eligible for a 100% up to $650 sign-up bonus. Nothing is deducted from MGR at PlayersOnly.

When you have bonus money sitting in your pending bonus account you can earn it back by playing in real money ring or tournament games.

When you play for real money you’ll earn Frequent Player Points (FPP) . Each FPP that you earn is worth $0.06 towards your bonus. Once you’ve earned $10 worth of bonus money, the funds are removed from your Pending Bonus account and added to your real money account balance. For more details on FPPs please see below.

This will continue until your pending bonus account reaches $0. Note that your last payout could be less than $10 if the remaining amount in your pending bonus is less than $10 .

All Players Only players tracked to the Pokerpod will qualify for the Players Only rake Chase. For more information click here.
