Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions govern your use of kelleighratzlaff.com and explain how our poker site reviews, rankings and comparison tables work. By browsing this site, reading our reviews of operators such as Coinpoker, Bovada, Stake, Ignition or any other brand covered here, you accept the terms set out below. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.

What this site is and isn't

Poker Sites is an independent information and comparison resource for online poker. We are not a poker operator, we don't accept deposits or wagers, and we don't process withdrawals. We publish research, rankings and editorial commentary on third-party poker sites and apps, including operators that accept cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin. Any decision to register, deposit or play with an operator listed on this site is made entirely by you, and any transaction takes place directly between you and that operator, subject to their own terms, licensing and eligibility rules.

Affiliate disclosure and commercial relationships

This site may earn a commission when a reader clicks through to a listed poker site and signs up or deposits. These commercial relationships never determine how an operator is ranked or reviewed. Ratings reflect our own editorial assessment of factors such as traffic, game variety, software, promotions and payment options — an operator's advertising spend or affiliate arrangement with us does not buy a higher position on this page or on any comparison table.

How rankings and reviews are put together

Our editorial team researches each listed operator using publicly available information: stated licensing, published bonus terms, payment method lists, game types on offer and general market reputation. Where we reference figures such as bonus amounts or deposit methods, these come directly from information published by the operator at the time of research and can change without notice. We do not claim to have deposited, played or withdrawn funds at every operator listed, and nothing on this site should be read as a guarantee of the current accuracy of any operator's terms — always confirm current bonus terms, wagering requirements and payment options directly with the operator before signing up.

No guarantee of winnings

Poker is a game that combines skill and chance, and outcomes are never guaranteed. Nothing on this site should be interpreted as a promise or expectation of profit, and we do not present poker as a source of income or a solution to financial difficulty. Any decision to play real-money poker, including with crypto-friendly sites, carries the risk of losing money you deposit. You should only ever play with money you can afford to lose.

Eligibility, age and legal use

You must be at least 21 years old to use the information on this site to sign up with a real-money poker operator, unless the jurisdiction you're in sets a lower legal minimum age of 18, in which case that local minimum applies. Online poker is regulated on a state-by-state basis in the US, with no single federal framework, and legal availability of real-money or crypto poker varies depending on where you live. It is your responsibility to check that real-money and cryptocurrency poker play is legal in your specific state or jurisdiction before registering with any operator listed here, and to comply with any licensing, tax or reporting obligations that apply to you.

Responsible gambling

Nothing on this site should be read as encouragement to gamble more than you can afford, to chase losses, or to use poker as a way to cope with stress or financial pressure. If gambling is starting to feel like a problem, free confidential support is available around the clock through the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER. Several states also run their own self-exclusion and support programs directly through licensed operators, and we never suggest working around those protections. For more on setting limits and recognizing warning signs, see our Responsible Gambling page.

Accuracy, changes and limitation of liability

We aim to keep reviews, bonus details and comparison tables current, but poker operators frequently change their terms, licensing status, payment options and promotions. We update pages when we become aware of changes, but we can't guarantee that every detail is accurate at the exact moment you read it. Poker Sites is provided "as is," and to the extent permitted by law we accept no liability for losses arising from your use of this site, your reliance on its content, or your dealings with any third-party operator. We reserve the right to amend these terms, our rankings, or the operators we cover at any time without prior notice.

Crypto and payment method information

Where we describe crypto or Bitcoin deposit and withdrawal options, alongside more conventional methods such as cards, ACH transfers, PayPal, PayNearMe or operator prepaid cards, this reflects information published by the operator at the time of writing. Processing times, network fees, minimum and maximum limits, and KYC verification requirements are set by the operator and its payment providers, not by Poker Sites, and can change. Always check the current payment terms on the operator's own site before depositing.
