Terms and Conditions | US Poker Site Rules of Use

These terms and conditions govern your use of US Poker (drpasswater.com). By browsing this site, reading our reviews, or clicking through to any operator listed here, you agree to the terms set out below. Please read them before relying on anything you find on this site.

What This Site Is and Is Not

US Poker is an independent information and comparison resource covering online poker sites and apps, including crypto and Bitcoin-friendly operators. We publish research, rankings and editorial commentary to help readers compare options such as Coinpoker, Bovada, Stake, Ignition, Americas Card Room and other operators listed on this site.

We are not a poker operator, payment processor, or gambling licensee. We do not accept deposits, hold player funds, run games, or process withdrawals. Any account you open, deposit you make, or hand you play is between you and the operator directly, under that operator's own terms of service.

Affiliate Relationships and Commercial Disclosure

US Poker may earn a commission when a reader clicks through to an operator and signs up or deposits. These commercial relationships never determine our rankings or ratings. Editorial positions are based on our own review criteria, not on which operator pays the highest commission, and no operator can buy a better placement on this site.

Where an offer, bonus figure, or promotion is mentioned on this site, it reflects information available to us as of the fact-check date and is always subject to the operator's own current terms. Bonus amounts, wagering requirements, and eligibility conditions can change at any time, and it is your responsibility to confirm the live terms directly with the operator before you deposit.

Accuracy of Content

We research each operator's licensing, game selection, payment methods, and promotions before publishing, and we update pages when we become aware of material changes. However:

We do not guarantee that every detail (bonus terms, payment processing times, game availability, or state-by-state access) is current at the moment you read it
Rake structures, traffic levels, and software features can change without notice
Screenshots, ratings, and descriptions are for informational purposes and should not be treated as a substitute for reading an operator's own terms and conditions

If you find outdated or inaccurate information, you can let us know through our Contact Us page.

No Guarantee of Outcomes

Nothing on this site should be read as a promise or guarantee of winnings. Poker involves both skill and variance, and it is possible to lose money playing at any operator we cover, regardless of its ranking or rating. We do not present poker as a source of income or a way to solve financial difficulties, and no ranking, review, or bonus comparison on this site changes the fact that real money is at risk whenever you play.

Eligibility and Age Restrictions

This site and the operators listed on it are intended for adults only. Most US states that regulate online poker set the minimum age at 21, though a small number permit real-money play from 18. You are responsible for confirming the legal age and legal status of online poker in your own state before signing up with any operator. Content on this site is not directed at, and must not be accessed by, anyone under the applicable legal age in their jurisdiction.

Online poker availability varies by state under the current US regulatory framework, since there is no single federal system. Some operators listed here may not accept players from every state. Always check an operator's own eligibility rules before attempting to register.

Responsible Gambling

We want readers to treat poker as entertainment, not as a reliable way to make money. If gambling stops being fun, starts causing financial strain, or feels difficult to control, help is available. In the US, you can call or text 1-800-GAMBLER for free, confidential support. Our Responsible Gambling page has further resources, including guidance on state self-exclusion programs, and our Support and Player Protections page covers what to look for from an operator in terms of account limits and player safeguards. We never intend for this site's content to encourage chasing losses or gambling beyond what someone can afford to lose.

Intellectual Property

The text, comparisons, ratings and layout on drpasswater.com are the property of US Poker unless otherwise stated. You may link to our pages or quote short excerpts with attribution, but you may not copy or republish substantial portions of our content without permission.

Limitation of Liability

US Poker provides information "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for losses, damages, or disputes arising from your use of any third-party operator, including issues with deposits, withdrawals, bonus terms, or account verification. Any dispute over funds, account access, or bonus eligibility should be raised directly with the operator in question, and, where relevant, with the regulator that licenses that operator.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms and conditions from time to time to reflect changes in our content, our commercial arrangements, or the regulatory environment. The date shown at the top of this page reflects when it was last updated. Continuing to use the site after changes are posted means you accept the revised terms.
