Depositing crypto to play poker

From choosing a coin to taking a seat — and the network mistakes to avoid.

How a deposit works

  1. Open your wallet, choose an amount in US dollars and the coin you want to pay with.
  2. You are given a deposit address held for you alone for 30 minutes, and the exact amount of that coin to send.
  3. Send exactly that amount from your exchange or wallet, on the network shown.
  4. When the transfer is confirmed on the blockchain, your balance is credited in US dollars automatically.

The minimum deposit is shown in your wallet before you start. Chips at the tables are always in dollars, whichever coin you deposit.

Choosing a coin and network

USDT (Tether) is the simplest choice: one USDT is worth one dollar, so what you send is what you play with. It runs on several blockchains, and the network you send on must match the one shown on the deposit page:

Coin · networkAddress starts withNetwork feeTypical wait
USDT · TRON (TRC-20)TLowAbout a minute
USDT · BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20)0xVery lowAbout two minutes
USDT · Ethereum (ERC-20)0xCan be highA few minutes

For small deposits, USDT on TRON or BNB Smart Chain keeps the network fee to a fraction of the amount.

Mistakes that cost money

  • Sending on the wrong network. USDT sent on Ethereum to a TRON address — or the other way round — may be lost for good. Always pick the network shown.
  • Sending less than shown. Exchanges often take their withdrawal fee out of the amount; make sure the amount that arrives is the full amount asked for. A short payment is not credited automatically and needs support to resolve.
  • Reusing an old address. Each deposit gives you an address for that deposit only. Start a new deposit each time.

Withdrawing

Withdrawals are requested from the same wallet page, need your password, and show the network fee before you confirm. Identity verification may be required before a withdrawal. Withdrawals are reviewed and sent to the address you give, on the network you choose.

Questions

Which network should I use to deposit USDT?
The one shown on your deposit page. For small amounts, TRON (TRC-20) and BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20) have the lowest network fees.
How long does a crypto deposit take?
As long as the blockchain takes to confirm it: about a minute for USDT on TRON or Solana, a few minutes on Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain, and 20–60 minutes for Bitcoin.
What happens if I send the wrong amount?
More than asked is credited in full. Less than asked is not credited automatically — open a support ticket and it will be resolved by hand.
