Software
The software in the room is rather outdated and archaic. DBG Poker cannot be downloaded, since the lobby is launched directly in the browser. It works on Flash technology, which is no longer supported by many browsers, so the administration of the institution promises to soon release a new platform in HTML5.
The main lobby is standard in appearance. Here you can select the desired table and tournament, see the number of players, limits and other parameters of the selected table or tournament. Players have access to filters by limits and the ability to hide full tables. You will not be able to queue up here, since such functionality is not provided. When you open a table, it appears in a new browser window, which may not be very convenient on weak devices.
Please note that converters work here, but they do not have the ability to connect the HUD in the browser.
Traffic
Since DBG Poker is an Italian poker room, most of the players here are from this country. The game is played only in euros. The largest number of online players is observed in the evenings according to the Italian time zone, and the simultaneous number of players can exceed 1600.
All cash tables in the room are presented in 6-max format, and from the available disciplines there are Hold’em and Omaha. Almost all online game is concentrated on tables up to $ 100 NL inclusive, and the most expensive game is played at the limits of $ 4 / $ 6. Talking about PLO tables, there are several times less of them. Apparently, Italians are not very fond of this type of poker. The number of tournaments here is modest, and they all have a low number of players. That is why the main game is presented only at the cash tables.
Many regular players note an extremely weak field, and this is understandable – almost everyone online is concentrated on low and medium limit cash tables, where the level of play is not high even in the top rooms. If you are ready to put up with not the most convenient browser client and the lack of a bonus program, then this room will definitely suit you.
Rake and rakeback
Our DBG Poker review wouldn’t be complete if we didn’t mention rake. All tables are charged 5% rake with a cap of 5 euros, and the structure of its withdrawal is a dealt. This means that the rake is evenly distributed among all the players who took part in the distribution, regardless of their stake in the pot. Rakeback here is equal to a fixed 25%, and the room keeps 20% of the profit for itself. There is no regular bonus program here, but sometimes the room holds promotions for its players.
Deposits and withdrawals
There are three ways to deposit and withdraw funds: via Bitcoin, Skrill and Neteller. The minimum deposit amount is quite high – $ 100, and you can cash out only starting from an amount of $ 500.
Please note that verification in the DBG Poker room is a prerequisite for withdrawing funds. You will have to wait to complete it, since the average time for consideration of a request for player identification can take a week.
Also, keep in mind that when you withdraw funds, you may be asked for an additional commission in the event that the administration of the room considers the volume of the rake you generated is insufficient. This uncertainty is a disadvantage.
