PocketFives does not recommend playing online poker on sites offering rake-based games in the United States. Your money may be at risk. We feel more comfortable at this time recommending no-rake sites such as ClubWPT.com.

We understand your frustration with the current situation, and that frustration is shared by all of us in the poker community. We hope to have positive news soon regarding online poker regulation in the U.S.
