That is how does the RNG work and has it been certified?

This software used to be open source. Has the RNG code changed since then and is it available for inspection?
Hi guys.

We resently got the RNG certification. Which is part of the licensing process we are going thru right now. I will publish the result here asap.

In regards to the software. We have purchased a license of the source code and are in the process of forking it. Once that is done we can and will develop it any way we chose. This is a priority to us so we can offer the best player experience possible.

Why do your tournaments start 3 minutes early?

Mr. GlobalPokerCSadmin

Please resolve my issue as I find it unsettling that I cannot verify my account. I receive an email on Friday the 10th of Feb. asking for an ID and a bank statement to verify. I have sent such information on three different occasions and I received an "this is a legible" email. How much clearer than PDFs that are in color. My email is SoledOutCEO@gmail.com.

I would appreciate immediate attention. Nicole was the last person I dealt with.

Hm that was a weird one. They always start as scheduled. What tournament/s are you referring to?

Tonight the Daily Gold Coins Challenge $100 Freeroll begn dealing at 8:57pm. Previously every tournament I've played has started dealing 3 min before scheduled time.

Computer clock matches phone and watch time but I don't see a clock in the lobby. Perhaps this would be a good tweak.

Question regarding the US facing part of your business.

Brick and Mortar Internet / Sweepstakes Cafes popped up and were eventually mostly closed in several stakes in the U.S. over the past decade. These were effectively slot machine operators attempting to operate a gambling business under sweepstakes laws in each state.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/03/24/stateline-illegal-gambling-internet-cafes/6829731/

https://www.casino.org/news/north-carolina-sweepstakes-operators-must-be-out-by-july

How does your legal argument vary from what was originally put forth by the Internet/Sweepstakes cafes?
Hi PTLou. Thats a fair question. Lets see how we can make sense of the difference here:

How does VGW / Chumba Casino / Global Poker differ from the Sweepstakes Internet Cafe model?


The key difference is in the product that VGW sells in Chumba Casino / Global Poker, versus the product that Sweepstakes Internet Cafes sell.


VGW sells virtual currency. Internet Cafes sell "phone cards" and "internet time"


For sweepstakes cafes, the utility of their products are questionable at best, or nil at worst. The products are widely seen (both by players and law enforcement) as simply mechanisms to obtain more sweepstakes without promoting the trade in a bona fide product. (eg. Who pays for internet time or phone cards these days?)


However, virtual currency for use in social casino and/or social poker games is by contrast a very large, legitimate and mature market.


The success of games like Slotomania, Doubledown Casino or Zynga Texas Hold 'Em Poker are evidence of the large market for virtual currency social casino games.


Chumba Casino and Global Poker are such virtual currency social casino games.


VGW sells virtual currency (Gold Coins) for use at these games, where players play only for entertainment.


Because virtual currency product has wide use and precedent, demonstrable in the social casino industry, it is therefore a bonafide product unlike those of Sweepstakes Internet Cafes.

Internet Cafes are also subject to laws that consider physical establishments and the use of sweepstakes; as opposed to VGW's social casino games which do not fall in the same category.

Hope that answers your questions

We will look into that, never heard that one before actually. Thanks for the info.

He's correct, I've been playing on global for a few weeks and this has been true in 100% of the tournaments I've played. They all launch 3 minutes early. If you open the tournament lobby during this time the text under the game title will still say "starts in 2 minutes" (or whatever) but the register button will already show as running and you can't enter anymore.

All tournaments start 2 or 3 minutes early I have seen. What about the rathole time? There doesn't seem to be one. I leave a .25 .50 table with 80 and 3 hours or 4 hours later I still have to buy in for 80 and can't for 50. Site otherwise is running really good in terms of no disconnects or disruptions.

Is this for real?
02-14-2017 , 03:45 PM
Dunno, but it's hard to believe when there are usually less than 30 people playing at any time. I think I would notice 15+ full tables filled with similar screen names

Ive seen one guy do it 20 times in a row within 30 minutes doesn't have to be separate tables . Is there no censorship on this site whatsoever? Just curious doesn't really bother me.
02-14-2017 , 04:05 PM
Can you cash out to a paypal email address that is different than your signup email address? If so, that's a leak. If not, then there's a hurdle to bonus farming.

can i play from my ipad ?
02-14-2017 , 04:43 PM
I saw the same thing where someone got felted, came back with a new number attached to their name and this went on for about 5 changes. I was wondering what that was about.

That is definitely a bug that needs to be fixed. You would think that there is some sort of policing over offensive names for players. How is that overlooked??

Ok , we had verification at cashout to make it as easy as possible for our players to get on and play.

This is not what we intended, and we will change this asap. I apologize on Globals behalf for anyone that have been insulted by this player.

We have had the policy to give out $2 $weeps to every signup in order for players to try out our software and games. We know this is a bit unorthodox in the online poker world. We are aware of the issues this presents and its being taken care of.
02-14-2017 , 05:35 PM
This goes in line with our over all marketing strategy, we have since we started 5th of Dec 2016 given out in free $weeps, freerolls, guarantees and challenges over $200,000, $170,000 of which have been cashed out as free $weeps and is now in the PayPal accounts of our players. We rather have you players get the money and give us the honest feedback than a magazine, or any other acquisition channel that other operator might choose. Having said that, we will now move on to mainstream marketing to increase our player base. Our generous tournament offers will however continue.
