Global Poker: Sweepstakes Poker Room
2016
Global Poker is the only poker site that legally accepts players from almost every state in America. The room operates on the “sweepstakes” model, which means that all games on the site are 100% legal, and players can win real money.
How the Sweepstakes model works
The game on the site is not played for real money, but for coins — an in-game currency. There are two types of coins:
- Gold Coins (GC) — have no real monetary value. Gold Coin = Play Money.
- Sweeps Coins (SC) — have real monetary value. 1 SC = 1 USD.
Global Poker players do not make deposits, as in regular rooms. Instead, they buy coins.
Global Poker Welcome Bonus GC 200,000 for $20 with FREE SC 40!
Welcome Bonus at Global Poker differs from Welcome Bonus in regular rooms.
For the first deposit of $20, players receive 100,000 GC and 20 Sweep Coins. To receive the bonus, you need to:
- register in the room
- verify your account
- make a deposit of $20
After that, 100,000 GC + 40 SC will be available for games (20 SC are purchased for $20 + 20 SC are awarded by the room as a gift for the first deposit).
40 SC can be used at cash tables, SNG, MTT and Jackpot Sit’N’Go.
