Grinding Poker In A Rec-Friendly Environment · S8E13

from The Official Red Chip Poker Podcast · host Red Chip Poker

Online #poker is a very different beast to twenty years ago. Essentially all poker sites have taken the decision to clip the wings of the professional grinder, ostensibly to encourage the survival of recreational players. Table caps, minimal rake back, and HUD restrictions require the pros to make concessions.   In this episode of the podcast, coach w34z3l discusses how the online grinder can navigate this hostile environment. There are no ideal poker sites anymore, but you can still develop a strategy to play professionally or to generate a significant side income.   TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Introduction: The Golden Age of Online Poker 1:04 PokerStars Today: Table Caps & Restrictions 2:18 Multi-Site Grinding: The New Reality 4:42 HUD Restrictions Across Major Networks 7:24 Room-by-Room Breakdown: Finding the Best Option 9:38 888 Poker: Traffic Issues & High Rake 10:14 iPoker Network: Bot Activity Concerns 11:58 Americas Cardroom: Closest to Old Stars? 12:57 Unibet: No Tracking, No HUD 13:37 Asian Apps: Security Risks & Agent Issues 15:04 PokerStars Security vs Accessibility 16:09 Winamax Withdrawal Issues: My Experience 21:01 GG Poker Lifetime Ban: What Happened? 24:39 The Decline of Online Poker & Final Thoughts   **LINKS** The Low-Stakes Poker Playbook: https://redchippoker.com/low-stakes-poker-playbook/ Setting Up Your Poker HUD Stats: https://www.splitsuit.com/setting-up-poker-hud-stats Maximize Your Online Poker Edge: https://youtu.be/IFLeNVINYDQ?si=t9oqSddVCfoWwZ5b Top 15 Key Poker Skills: https://redchippoker.com/top-15-poker-skills/   **JOIN US ON DISCORD** Join our free poker Discord today: https://redchippoker.com/discord
