TON Poker, a cryptocurrency-based poker room, launched on Telegram in March 2023. It offers players cash tables with various stakes, freerolls, and a small but periodically updated tournament schedule.
Rake on TON Poker
At TON Poker cash tables, the rake is a flat 5% for pots of 3 big blinds (BB) or more. No rake is taken from pots smaller than 3 BB. Additionally, for stakes NL1K and above, rake is only taken when there are at least three players at the table.
The rake cap is set at $5 across all limits, except for the following:
- $2 BB = $6 cap
- $5 BB = $12.50 cap
- $10 BB = $20 cap
- $20 BB = $25 cap
- $50 BB = $50 cap
In tournaments, the rake varies depending on the buy-in levels and can go up to 11%.
Cash Games (Cash Tab)
TON Poker provides games in Hold’em, 4-Card Pot-Limit Omaha, and 5-Card Pot-Limit Omaha. All cash tables are either 4-max or 6-max with stakes ranging from $0.02/0.05 to $25/50, organized by game type in different tabs.
Tournaments (Tourney Tab)
Tournaments with a $5 buy-in and prize pools starting from $10 run every hour.
Free play on chips is available through a separate app called TG Poker.
