[CoinPoker] - Ex-Official - Bringing the Game Back to Players
Hello Everyone,
This is the Official Thread of CoinPoker (previous thread)
CoinPoker: The Decentralized Poker Room Built for Players, by Players
Developed by an ambitious team of poker lovers, CoinPoker is a revolutionary platform that uses blockchain technology to address key issues in the poker industry. Despite being far from our vision for CoinPoker as the biggest poker room in the world, our team is proud to be the first project of its kind to deliver on the promises made during its ICO period.
Lengthy payment processing, limited transparency on fair play, as well as a blase attitude towards community feedback are just some of the prevalent problems in today’s online poker world. Since CoinPoker launched at the end of 2017, it has attracted a growing community of players and investors who share the same goal of bringing the game back to players.
Using Decentralized Technology to Ensure Fair Play
One of the key benefits of the blockchain movement is that it empowers users by adding transparency and convenience to traditional services. Poker rooms in particularly reserve the rights to hold player funds and release them at their own discretion, and as a result of complex payment systems simple transfers can be delayed by as much as weeks.
The Benefits of Cryptocurrency Powered Bets
All deposits, withdrawals, and bets on CoinPoker are powered by the cryptocurrency token CHP (Chips). The use of CHP speeds up payments, and gives players the ability to track payments to and from their account on the public Ethereum network.
CHP token holders are able to quickly move funds to and from their CoinPoker account, and for passionate advocates of the project it is a means to invest in the platform as it continues to grow and expand. It is also possible to exchange ETH tokens to CHP inside the CoinPoker app, making it as easy to acquire as one of the most popular assets on the crypto market.
Available on a growing list of exchanges including KuCoin and HitBTC, CHP tokens are in the process of being adopted by other gaming businesses in the near future.
Player Impact Shown on a Decentralized Random Number Generator (RNG)
Fast payment processing is not the only way CoinPoker wields decentralized technology for the benefit of the player. Random number generators (RNGs) used to shuffle decks in a variety of card games (poker included) have often been scrutinized by players as mysterious and, as a result, they are often approached with suspicion.
Trust is essential between a player and poker room for the experience to be optimal, which is why CoinPoker will be introducing a fully decentralized RNG this year. The feature will be the first of its kind in the poker industry, and will give players the possibility to view their impact on dealt hands in a visual dashboard alongside hand history.
Internationally Accessible on Desktop and Mobile
Players from all over the world are able to access our desktop client, and our launch of an Android app has already resulted in thousands of players hitting the tables while on the go. Coming soon is the release of the CoinPoker app for iOS, which we expect to release this summer.
CoinPoker’s Community-Centric Business Model
Central to our operations is carefully monitoring feedback from our players. The success of our ICO is owed to a diverse group of small and large investors, many of whom are now active players, and we feel a strong obligation to make sure their needs and wants are met.
This is why we have invested heavily in hosting epically proportioned promos from the get-go, in line with the promises made during the ICO period.
Millions of CHP Awarded in Large Scale Tournaments and Promotions
Since launching, CoinPoker players were given the opportunity to win a Tesla, collect over 400ETH in various tournament series like ETH Madness, participate in a 10,000,000 CHP Added Crypto Series of Poker (CSOP), and win millions of CHP in daily freerolls
and freebuys.
Introducing Rake after Operating Rake-Free Since the 2017 Launch
After boasting zero rake on games for over half a year, CoinPoker will be introducing rake as a means to facilitate future growth. The revenue will be allocated towards future promotions, development costs, and the funding of new and ongoing partnerships with leading poker associations to establish our brand and give players exciting opportunities to play across the globe.

I've been wondering this too. Same at 1,000, there was a period of good action, however it seems to have fallen off the cliff. I'm sure the RB system/coin isn't helping.
Unfortunately we had the DDoS attacks, and some bugs after a client update a few weeks back, but things are improving again now. Lots of things are in the pipeline to hopefully bring more players in. Extra VIP rewards, another large scale promotion similar to the Cash Game World Championship - except tournament related this time round (we may also do a cash game one again later). And ways to make depositing easier - like a unique address for each player, to prevent mistakes with sending to the CP wallet from an exchange.
Lots of plans for Q2, unfortunately I haven't heard much about the RB system/ a new token, but will update here if I do.

Thanks for the update.
With all the mess about the rakeback and the CHP system I have to give Coin Poker a break and point out some good things here.
The support is super fast and very friendly + helpfull. Also you have the fastest cashout for crypto I have seen so far.
But there is still space for improvement.
1. Pay rackeback in usdt
2. Give people the "visable" / transparent option to cashout without fees
3. Fix the note log at the tables, so that the focus stays in the note log, while multitabling and the "bring table to the front" feature is activated.
There is nothing more tilting and annoying than trying to take notes and being constantly interrupted by the action at the tables.
4. Being able to move the note log away from the table so that it doesn't block the table, especially when the player left or busted, so one can still make the notes.
4. Increase the time bank at least to 1 min.
Cheers
Why are there legit zero MTTs with an $11-$24 buy-in range on CoinPoker? The filter therefore also makes no sense – it's either $5-$20 or $21-$99. Any plans to fix this?
Every time I try to launch the app on my PC I get a warning message that says, "Use Lobby to launch the app." What does this mean?
My personal feature wishlist:
- Likely stated ad nauesum but I try not to lurk forums too much: Ability to swap CHP back to USD.
- Custom stakes filter, please. Let's say am currently playing 2/5 and 5/T, I don't need to see T/20, 25/50, 50/100, 100/200, 1kidney/2kidney, 1lambo/2lambo, and 1house/2house stakes. Just a small QoL for the lobby that pretty much every other site has would be great.
- More note colors/the note colors highlight the entire player box instead of a tiny circle.
When you guys launch a new token?
How long takes withdraws with POL ?
What type of wallet is it? In MetaMask you can change the blockchain then it might show up. Someone here might use the same wallet, or try support (support@coinpoker.com).
Side note you can also withdraw to an exchange if you want (it doesn't need to be the linked wallet you deposited with), my USDT address stays the same on ETH / POL / BSC networks, the main 3 ones. Usually the big exchanges set it up like that so it's the same address for as many networks as possible for convenience, except TRC20 and some others that need to be different
Edit - ok it was an exchange, saw your DM
Unfortunately no exact ETA but they aim to revamp the whole client including the rake back system in Q2, sorry I know it's taking a long time
I don't play here, but I would add it to my rotation if several things are changed or improved. I enjoy watching YouTube and Twitch type content and the people streaming content can barely get tables filled. What you are currently doing plain and simple isn't popular enough to fill up multiple tables per stake.
1. The rake back systems requiring multiple explanations to understand is too difficult for joe 6 pack of beer to want to deal with.
2. Go back to 6 handed like the majority of poker sites.
3. I didn't waste too much time trying to figure out all the different ante size choices the one time I looked in the lobby, but keep it short and simple instead of all of these different ante sizes.
4. And even though I mentioned streamers, don't use your advertising budget like you did in the past putting streamers into high stakes games. It looked stupid and wasteful.
5. I think Coin Poker could be a Bodog/Bovada/Ignition killer. Surprise, surprise anonymous poker is a breeding ground for cheaters. I think a lot of Bodog/Bovada/Ignition players are fed up enough to move if there was a place run well enough.
I'm sending all the latest feedback (#1236 onwards) now to the devs, thanks.

Custom stake filters and more MTTs are in the pipeline for a major client update in the coming months, unfortunately I don't have an exact date yet.
$15 satellites are coming on Sunday though, as part of a new promotion that's about to be announced - CoinMasters - and they are planning to monitor those and consider keeping $15 buy-ins as regular tournaments after the promo ends, plus we have another CSOP series coming soon that should have more buy-in levels that they potentially make permanent. Mario agrees that the jump from $10 to $25 is steep too.
There's a dedicated tournaments channel on our Discord where it's possible to talk to the tournament team directly if you'd like to give more feedback. https://discord.com/invite/9G8jhUNHw7
I'll try again with some suggestions:
pot limit hi lo games,
the "are you sure you want to exit Coin Poker?" pop-up, it's been in development for ages...
the "remember password" when you open the client

Password remember is stupid mate. Never use this feature this is a basic security stuff.. scammers and hackers are happy because 99% of users are stupid and dont protect own things..

I've reminded them again now about the pop up. Adding new games is unfortunately going to take a while but we do plan to.
We've now added USDC ERC20 deposits, hopefully that brings in more players who are worried about USDT regulations in certain countries.
Find it in the dropdown option under 'deposit' (only use this one if depositing from a private wallet), and under 'deposit from an exchange' (only use this one if depositing from an exchange)
Also in today's client update is a new background for the cards / table, click the gear icon top right then Visual Settings
Hopefully it's clearer for people multitabling who requested bigger cards, let us know your feedback
