Poker Networks

iPoker is the longest-running multi-skin network in online poker. Playtech licenses the platform to local operators, who brand it under their own names and share liquidity with most of the network. The model favors regulated markets and recreational-facing brands over high-stakes grinder culture. Rake is uniform across skins; what differs is geography, bonus terms, and rakeback deals.

Chico is the poker software platform shared by BetOnline, Tiger Gaming, and SportsBetting.ag: three sister brands operating under the same parent. It targets US players directly, positioning it alongside WPN and PaiWangLuo in the offshore US market. Games skew recreational, the software is less sophisticated than GGPoker's, and rakeback terms are more generous than PaiWangLuo's anonymous alternative.

WPN is the largest US-facing offshore network by cash-game traffic and the most grinder-friendly among US options. Since the 2022 anti-bot program, the network has been aggressive on detection and account closures, which has tightened the games at mid-to-high stakes. ACR is the flagship skin; Black Chip Poker runs on the same software with different branding.

PaiWangLuo is the anonymous-only offshore network serving the US and Canada through Ignition and the Ozoon brand (the 2026 consolidation of legacy Bovada). Mandatory anonymous tables block HUDs and third-party tracking, producing the softest field among US-facing options, though regs also lose the ability to data-mine each other. Cash games dominate; tournaments are secondary.

GGNetwork overtook PokerStars as the largest online poker destination in 2020 and has widened the gap every year since. The network pairs a massive recreational player base with aggressive tournament investment: WSOP Online bracelet events, the WSOP Circuit online series, and a calendar of major festivals. Third-party tracking tools are blocked; GGPoker's in-client Smart HUD is the permitted alternative.
