Leading crypto poker site CoinPoker has now added support for fiat payments in around 25 countries, as well as stablecoin USDC for all players.
Play Poker With Bank Transfer
If you’re based in one of the following jurisdictions, you’ll notice a new ‘Deposit by Bank Transfer’ option within the CoinPoker software client: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UAE, and the United Kingdom.
On that tab you’ll then find a SEPA widget to deposit EUR (or GBP in the UK) and be able to generate a unique IBAN and Swift Code to send your transfer to. Find a full guide on the CoinPoker website here.
If players still wish to use cryptocurrency to avoid KYC, they can – the extra option to deposit with EUR or GBP however appears to be proving very popular with many players.
The site’s traffic has seen a sharp rise – PokerScout now ranks CoinPoker among the top online poker rooms for its 33% rakeback deal and high stakes action including some of the ‘best and most exciting players in the world’.
Play Poker With Crypto USDC
Adding support for USD Coin (USDC) may have also brought in an influx of new players concerned over Tether (USDT) – the leading stablecoin has now been delisted from Coinbase due to MiCA regulations.
Prior to that some Canada facing exchanges also removed USDT trading pairs.
While USDT is likely not going anywhere in the long term, and is still supported on most exchanges, the additional option to deposit with USDC is a welcome move for many players.
Currently USDC is supported on the Ethereum network and now appears in the dropdown menu of supported cryptos, alongside BTC, ETH, BNB, POL (formerly MATIC), CHP and USDT. Read our review of CoinPoker here.
High Stakes No Limit Hold’em on CoinPoker
Last week saw several heads up battles between the best poker players in the world, across high stakes No Limit Hold’em and PLO.
Owen ‘Pr0digy’ Messere and Linus ‘LLinusLL0ve’ Loeliger were seen two tabling $100/$200 HU, and László ‘Omaha4rollz’ Bujtás took on unknown high stakes PLO crusher GucciNIKE at $300/$600 PLO5.
Owen Messere won CoinPoker’s Cash Game World Championship, with Linus taking 3rd place.
Watch some of the highlights from that event here, and this week’s action in the video above with commentary from Bobby James.
In a second livestream, Bobby James also brought on fellow UK pro and coach Pr0digy to chat poker strategy.
High Stakes PLO
Today Omaha4rollz and GucciNike continued their regular 5 Card PLO battles on CoinPoker, with hundreds of thousands of dollars spread over two tables.

In one huge $153k pot, GucciNIKE three bet preflop, then correctly shut down on all three streets having flopped quads.
Out of position, he checked flop, turn and river inducing a triple barrel bluff from Linus on 6-9-9-4-A.
Linus missed his flush draw but still moved all-in on the river for a $49k overbet with 8-3-6-4-A, holding blockers to most boats but running into the K-K-9-9-6 of GucciNIKE.
At the time of writing the pair have been playing for close to eight hours, both over 200bb deep. Omaha4rollz has also taken on another HSPLO reg PencilArms for some sessions this week.
Omaha4rollz and GucciNIKE are HU at $300/$600 for some PLO5 – could you fold this river?
