Online poker games at GGPoker

GGPoker Review Verdict – 4.5/5. This GGPoker review concludes that the poker room is among the very best available in Canada. Whether you’re looking for cash games or a variety of tournaments to play, the site has everything you need from a poker site. I decided to test GGPoker once again to see how things would play out after my last review. I played in 15 different tourneys over 2 days. In 7 of the tourneys I had A-A and someone else shoved all in so I called each time. I LOST EVERY SINGLE ONE against hands like A-K, Q-J and even 10-5.

Hold ’em and Omaha are the game varieties of choice at GGPoker. This popular online poker operator has chosen to place a heavy emphasis on the two most popular poker variants. Therefore, if you are looking to play some of the less well-known poker games, you should choose another online poker room.

GGPoker stands apart from its competitors with unique features and flashy graphics. For example, when you reach a final table at GGPoker, you get to choose where you are seated based on what your relevant chip stack is, or in cash games you can choose to run your hand all-in three times.

Omaha games at GGPoker are very similar to hold ’em games. But keep in mind that Omaha games are slightly less popular compared to hold ’em, so you may not find as wide of a variety and stakes of games running throughout the day.

No surprise here, MTTs are where GGPoker.com really shines. Not only is there a multitude of regular tournament offerings, but also weekend guarantees are massive. It is no wonder that many well-known professionals play at GGPoker.

T$ Builder

This special tournament type at GGPoker.com only pays out in tournament dollars. Thus, this means you can’t cash out these dollars but only use them to enter into other tournaments. Moreover, there is no additional rake or tournament fees. Look for these tournaments every 30 minutes with $1, $2, $4 and $8 buy-ins.

GGPoker high rollers

GGPoker Phoenix Rebuy

This is GGPoker.com’s rebuy tournament.

Here is what makes the Phoenix Rebuy so distinctive:

• Single rebuy right before late registration ends.
• Double rebuy for three times the starting chip stack only after late registration ends but before the actual rebuy period begins.
• Double-buy add-on for up to six times the amount of your initial starting chip stack at the end of the rebuy.

Other GGPoker game formats

Choose from these hyper-paced cash games or other types of sit-n-gos (SNG).

All-in or fold

This is a crazy type of a turbo tournament where you start with eight big blinds and pick between either hold ’em or Omaha. In addition, when you enter and the tournament fills, you get a chance at the all-in or fold jackpot. This jackpot pulls 50% from the tournament fee, so it builds up quickly. To win the jackpot, make a straight flush in hold ’em or use both your hole cards in Omaha to make a royal flush.

Spin and gold

Check out these jackpot sit-n-gos. When you enter, spin a wheel that calculates the payout for the winner.

These hyper sit-n-gos are usually just double the prize and require three players to start. Theoretically, the jackpot could hit for up to 12,000 times your buy-in.

• $1 — with jackpot up to $12,000
• $5 — with jackpot up to $60,000
• $20 — with jackpot up to $240,000
• $50 — with jackpot up to $600,000

Additionally, you can qualify for certain extras like additional rakeback for playing these. These are called “Gold Mine Challenges,” and you win by “mining” gold, which is playing these sit-n-gos.

6+ short deck

For this game, you are missing the 2, 3, 4 and 5 cards. The rest of the game plays just like a regular hold ’em game. However, flushes beat full houses. Additionally, the lowest straight is A-6-7-8-9. Also, when you hit royal or straight flushes, four of a kind or any flush, you hit the short deck jackpot.

Note: You do need to put in a minimum of 15 antes, use both hole cards and have a pocket pair for four of a kind.
