Our review of the games, rakeback, software, cashier and account rules that separate these two rooms.
We started with the practical question: which room gives players fewer reasons to hesitate before a first deposit? For PPPoker and RedStar Poker, we compared the current room data instead of relying on either bonus headline.
We would start with PPPoker. PPPoker has the higher listed trust score at 100/100 compared with 84/100. PPPoker lists 15,000 players while RedStar Poker lists 0. We still see a case for RedStar Poker if its NLHE and PLO offering or 20%-35% rakeback better matches the way you play.
