Play in Juicy Private Chinese Poker Games with the PokerMaster App

Recreational poker fans in China play in juicy home games via a mobile app called PokerMaster. Rakeback.com is in contact with an agent run by one of our long time VIP players – that can arrange for you to join these private poker clubs for a small fee.

Contact us at [email protected] for more info. US players are accepted, you can play from any country on your mobile device or tablet. One table per iOS or Android device (you can log on from several).

China Game Stakes

Cash game stakes range from 2/4 CNY – 200/400 CNY. One US Dollar is approximately 7 Chinese Yuan:

• 2/4 CNY (0.30/0.60 USD)
• 5/10 CNY (0.75/1.50 USD)
• 10/20 CNY (1.50/3 USD)
• 20/40 CNY (3/6 USD)
• 25/50 CNY (4/8 USD)
• 50/100 CNY (8/16 USD)
• 100/200 CNY (15/30 USD)
• 200/400 CNY (30/60 USD)

All games have an ante that varies from very small (5% of the BB) to very large (100% of the BB).

Games include NLHE and PLO. There are currently no SNGs or MTTs but these may be added in the future.

Fishy Games

Rakeback.com players are reporting loose action reminiscent of the early years of online poker.

Due to a high demand our agent will prioritize players interested in 20/40 CNY ($3/$6) first. These stakes are equivalent to around 25nl on PokerStars by difficulty level.

One tabling live poker style (or 2-3 tabling with several devices) also allows players to lower variance by focusing more on the action.

Players can also use ‘insurance mode’ mode to take insurance when all in, which helps to lower variance.

As you can see in this short video the action goes limp, limp, then a player is all in on the flop with middle pair. The next hand a raise is flat called in 3 spots. Even at 100nl.

A longer video with commentary is available here.

Two HUD stats are available, VPIP and PFR, by clicking on a player.

Deposits & Cashouts

Our agent guides you through all the steps needed to get set up and grinding in these private China games. Players can deposit and cashout using any of the following:

• Skrill USD or EUR
• Neteller USD or EUR
• Bitcoin
• Ethereum

Our agent requires a minimum deposit of 10,000 CNY (~$1,500).

Rake & Fees

The China poker games are raked at 5% of your profit on winning sessions. Losing or breakeven sessions are zero rake.

The PokerMaster app itself doesn’t display rake, it’s only designed for play chip poker. Players’ rake and real money results up or down are calculated by the clubs at the end of each day.

Our agent charges a 5% cashout fee for USD cashouts, or 6% for EUR / Bitcoin / Ethereum.

The reason for this is the agent has to convert from Chinese Yuan when cashing out for you, plus they need to cover their operating costs communicating with the Chinese clubs and getting players daily results.

Given how loose and fishy these private Chinese poker games are, you can expect to be more profitable than on traditional online poker sites, making up for the fees.
