Our review of the games, rakeback, software, cashier and account rules that separate these two rooms.
We do not think BetOnline Poker vs Blockchain Poker can be settled by one percentage or a lobby screenshot. We checked the network, traffic, rakeback, cashier, software and account rules to find the differences that affect regular play.
We would start with Blockchain Poker. BetOnline Poker has the higher listed trust score at 75/100 compared with 68/100. BetOnline Poker lists 2,000 players while Blockchain Poker lists 20. We still see a case for BetOnline Poker if its NLHE and PLO offering or 30% rakeback better matches the way you play.
