New Poker Room Online

March 27, 2009

With the passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, or the UIGEA, many online poker sites have left the US market, leaving poker players with very little choices as to where they might be able to play a good game. However, lately we have seen resurgence among online poker sites as more of them realize that if they don’t offer any other online gambling besides poker then they are legal.

Payment processing to online gambling sites is illegal per the UIGEA, but playing on them is not. However, since poker playing is legal in the US, and online poker playing is exempt from the UIGEA, those that don’t offer any of the other options are still legal. Therefore we have seen more online poker sites starting to hit the market again as they are emboldened by the numerous courts ruling in their favor.

Now BigBetPoker.com is happy to announce that they have entered the online poker market as well. The online poker site has a revolutionary double-dip loyalty program that is far and away one of the best programs out there today. Launching on the Merge Poker Network, the site’s program allows their players to earn and redeem their points for playing poker much faster than many of the other sites out there.

Licensed in Curacao, the poker site allows their players to earn points two ways instead of the standard one. It let’s them use the poker system to get points to enter free roll tournaments and/or take part in their industry exclusive rewards program that is located on their site. They can use the points to clear their bonuses, accrue rakeback, get different poker merchandise, or get cash rebates.
