Software

The mobile client of the Pokio room is quite convenient and has all the necessary functionality for a comfortable game for real money. The game in the room is played in clubs, which you can get into after contacting the club manager. This form of play has both its pros and cons, so it’s up to you to play here or not.

The settings for the appearance of the tables are quite modest: if you wish, you can change the color of the deck and cloth, as well as specify and fix the required bet sizes (bet sizing).

Since the room is mostly aimed at recreational players, there are restrictions for professional players. Firstly, as much as possible, you can play only at one table, so we advise you to consider the room as an additional one. Secondly, programs for collecting statistics and displaying HUD are not supported here, which reduces the EV for professional players.

Traffic

Since the room is aimed at players from European countries, the largest online number of up to 300 people is reached here in the evening and at night in Moscow. At the same time, slightly numerical tables are found during the day.

The geography of the players is represented not only by European countries, but also by Asian ones. So, at the tables you can meet poker players from Japan and Thailand. Philippines, Laos, Mongolia and several other countries. Occasionally, Canadians and players from Latin America come across in sight.

Game choice

The game range in the room is wide enough. First of all, these are standard Hold’em and Omaha, which are not available in all, but in the vast majority of rooms. Among the formats, there are 6-max and 9-max tables of various limits, which are quickly recruited during peak hours. You can find full tables almost at any time from NL20 $ to NL200 $, and in the evenings and on weekends there is also a more expensive game, up to NL1000 $. In addition to Hold’em and Omaha, the room features five-card pot-limit Omaha and open Chinese poker (OFC).

The tournament component of the Pokio room is not very developed, but at the same time it is there. In the lobby, you can find tournaments open to all players with buy-ins from $ 1, as well as private club tournaments. Satellites for larger events are placed in a separate tab in the lobby.

Bonus program

Our Pokio review wouldn’t be complete if we hadn’t covered the beginner’s suggestions. There is no bonus program in the Pokio room as such. That is, you will not find loyalty programs or first deposit bonuses here. However, a special offer is available for new players. To use it, the player must pass mandatory verification and make any deposit. After that, he will be credited with a ticket to a special free-roll for new players, the prize fund in which is 250 euros. The Welcome Free-roll itself is a weekly tournament held on Sundays at 16:30 Moscow time.

Rake and rakeback

Pokio Clubs and Regular Lobby games have a fixed rake of 5%. The cap directly depends on the limit and the number of players at the table. The minimum cap is € 0.5 and the maximum cap is € 3.5. You can find out the exact size of the rake right at the table by opening the “Rules” tab.

Deposits and withdrawals

Talking about financial transactions with an account in the Pokio room, there are several peculiarities. First, to make a deposit, you must go through mandatory verification. Without it, you will not be able to deposit and play for real money. To verify your identity, you must upload a photo or scan of your identity document. In special cases, the security service may request additional documents from the player. The average waiting time for a check is 1-2 days, and the player is notified of its results by e-mail and in the client of the room.

You can make a deposit using many popular payment systems. The minimum deposit amount depends on the method you choose. Funds are credited automatically and without any commissions.

You can also withdraw your winnings only if you have already passed verification. The withdrawal time and the minimum amount depend on the payment method used. Please note that when withdrawing to some systems, commissions are possible. To counter money laundering, the administration of the room reserves the right to charge a withdrawal commission if the amount of the placed bets and the generated rake is insufficient.
