Our review of the games, rakeback, software, cashier and account rules that separate these two rooms.
We do not think BCPoker vs Ignition 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 BCPoker. BCPoker has the higher listed trust score at 100/100 compared with 78/100. Ignition Poker lists 4,000 players while BCPoker lists 0. We still see a case for Ignition Poker if its NLHE and PLO offering or 0% rakeback better matches the way you play.
