All the sites have a mobile app or mobile capability
Bovada and Ignition are the same company, same player pool. From the US, you can register an account with either.

Yep, just go to the LDPlayer multi-menu and create a new emulator, or clone your first one. You'll need a second PokerBros account, of course.

Bonus tip for other noobs:

From the multi-menu, click on Optimiziation button at the bottom and then reduce the FPS from 60 to 20. Many of you are going to have really sh** graphics cards, and so that change will make a massive difference. In addition, don't use LDPlayer0 (the top emulator) as it always runs at 60FPS. Instead just clone it and use the clone.

^ thanks melea. Why do the clones run at a lower FPS than the original, just the setting?

Also, is there any trick for getting my HUD (pt4) to work on 3 emulators (3-4 tables/emulator) at the same time? I can always get 2 that work but it never works on the 3rd.

Thanks a lot

If I understand correctly, I will need to have two different PokerBros accounts in order to play on two emulators? That means if private club allows same person to use two accounts I can be playing at same table?

If you are a poker agent or club owner, making money off the rake and fees within the app, is this considered illegal? how has the US or Canadian government not shut this down yet? Is there a loop hole? Are any of you in here club owners and agents? are you nervous about being charged or shut down? or do you think it will just be a shutdown of the app whenever or if it comes down to that?

1. Yes

2. No, not unless you use nefarious means, your second account will be blocked from joining the same table.

Fwiw, here's what someone wanted me to post on his/her behalf, anonymously:

"Anyone running a club and taking rake and handling deposits/withdrawals is breaking every money laundering and wire act law ever put on the books and can have a RICO charge put against them. It's running an illegal online gambling venture across state lines with multiple parties within a hierarchy. Agents->Owners.

This PB/app poker boom probably won't last too much longer. There are millions of dollars moving back and forth and some clubs are making 7 figures and definitely not paying taxes on that either. Feds have to be investigating and since these apps have only been around 2-3 years and keep changing skins, that investigation will take a year or two till they can infiltrate the clubs and understand who the big agents/owners are. Then they'll all get their funds seized overnight and be arrested in unison. It'll be the biggest gaming scam you've ever heard of."

You can turn off WiFi on your phone, and join the same table on LD player.

**** I hadn't thought of the wire act charges. By trying to obfuscate cash flow in or out you are breaking more laws. And money laundering charges can be severe.

It would be one of the biggest things in poker history for sure. There are blue chip Chinese companies that have been invested in these apps, including a 9 figure business invested in Pokermaster.

So why is there any difference between pokerbros and lets say Igniton/ACR etc. who all serve us customers as well and been around for years after the Act?

Wasnt too worried about this before the pandemic but with live poker shutting down and these apps x10 their traffic in a month, i wouldnt be surprised that this happens.

All these unregulated sites operate outside of USA like Costa Rica. Most states in the USA its not technically illegal to play at these sites.

The illegal part of poker bros or any other club is money is being passed from hand to hand inside the USA. You know for a fact club owners are not paying taxes and the government does not like that. Technically that was a big reason for black Friday in the first place. They were not getting a piece of the pie and had a fit.
You have all these agents posting in redit and any other cheap advertising they can get a hold of. They post a phone number with USA area codes .
Unfortunately players will be the down fall of this software look at the reviews on Google play.

But that brings up a interesting question, can you pay taxes on your winnings to protect yourself from any backlash? The irs can tell of any irregular activity going on and ask for bank statements at times if they have questions.

Like any other business in the USA you need to formulate a llc/incorporation then get a EIN # so you can pay the man threw out the year. I imagine if these clubs had to pay taxes they would not be around for very long being our government is pretty greedy in terms of wanting money that isn't theirs.

Back in 2011, it took a decade of undercover work for the feds to bust an illegal sports gambling operation here in Dallas that was handling a billion dollars in wagers a year. While they had online and phone systems in place for gambling, I believe all the transactions were made in person with cash. It seems this would be easier to investigate simply because people are doing electronic transactions (which surprised me, because when I was on PPPoker, the transactions i made were in person).

I’ve always assumed the big club owners work together and probably run multiple clubs. I’m not very Facebook savvy. Searched PB but there are a ton of pages. I see club ID and referral #s everywhere. Are those are mostly agents or owners? Are there pages where people are saying they’re club owners and actually using their real names? I’d stay away from those clubs. Probably not the sharpest tools in the shed advertising like that. Even for agents.

No clue but I'm sure a lot of it is from the underground scene in Dallas. Pppoker was quite popular among those players and now most (if not all) of the underground games here have shut down due to social distancing so the owners of those games have been advertising games on Poker Bros. By contrast, you're not going to see any casinos move their games to Poker Bros.

Say u are are a club owner... and u have not partnered with other clubs or unions.

do u get 100 percent of the rake?

does poker bros only make money off the diamonds?

or they charge u dimaonds to have more table runing also at higher stakes?

and yeh the online sites and casinos hate poker bros prob.
1. It lets anybody get into the rake profits.. not just one owner
for that reason sites like will always be more popular in long run i feel.
2. The rakeback and priciing they offer is alot lower than what the casinos and online sites want to give us
3. The run it many times option is cool too and fish like that.. i like it too because reduces variance bigtime.



they can't compete with poker bros because its a system that lets ANYBODY with a dream to start their own club and try to build it up and be part of the poker ecosystem.. NOT JUST ONE PERSON AT THE TOP like howard lederer etc getting all the money. This is one thing i like about poker bros alot if u think about.. .it lets us.. the community at least a chance at also getting into the rake profits.. which is great..
