Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions govern your use of mygaytravelguide.com ("we", "us", "the site"). By browsing our reviews, comparison tables and rankings of online poker sites, you agree to the terms set out below. If you don't agree with any part of them, please don't use the site.

Who this site is for

US Poker publishes information about real money poker sites and apps available to players in the US. Nothing on this site is intended for, or should be accessed by, anyone under the age of 21. Some states permit online poker from age 18, but where state law sets a higher minimum, that higher age applies. We do not knowingly collect data from, or target content at, anyone below the legal gambling age in their state.

Online poker involves real financial risk. We do not present it as a way to make money, solve financial difficulty, or replace an income. Nothing on this site should be read as a guarantee of winning, and skill at poker does not remove the risk of losing your deposit. If gambling stops being fun, or starts to feel like a problem, help is available around the clock through the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER. Our Responsible Gambling page has more on setting limits and where to find state-specific support.

What this site does — and doesn't do

We are an independent review and comparison resource. We are not a poker operator, we do not hold player funds, and we are not a party to any account you open with a poker site. Any dispute over a deposit, a bonus, a withdrawal or an account closure is a matter between you and the operator concerned — not us.

The site is a single content property; where our rankings reference "No KYC" poker options, our dedicated guide on online poker sites with no KYC signup covers that topic in more depth, including which sites reduce or streamline identity checks and what that means for a US player.

How we rank and review poker sites

Every operator featured on this site is assessed against the same set of factors before it earns a place in our tables: traffic and player pool depth, the range of game formats (cash games, MTTs, Sit & Gos, fast-fold and Spin-style formats), rake structure and rakeback value, the strength of welcome offers and their real terms, deposit and withdrawal methods and speeds, mobile and software quality, and the licensing status we could verify at the time of review. Editorial ratings reflect our own scoring against these factors and are not customer review scores. Commission arrangements with any operator do not influence where that operator is placed — an operator cannot pay for a higher rating or a better position in our tables.

Ratings and offer details are checked periodically, but bonus terms, deposit limits and game availability change often and are set entirely by the operator, not by us. Always confirm current terms on the operator's own site before signing up or depositing.

Affiliate relationships and how we're paid

US Poker may earn a commission when a reader clicks through to a poker site and signs up. This is how independent comparison sites like ours are funded, and it does not cost you anything extra. It also does not change our editorial judgment: commercial relationships do not decide rankings, and we call out weaknesses in top-rated sites as readily as in lower-ranked ones.

Bonus terms and promotional accuracy

Where we display a welcome bonus or promotion — for example a deposit match or a package of tournament tickets — that figure is the headline offer as published by the operator at the time of writing. It is always subject to the operator's own terms, which typically include wagering or playthrough requirements, minimum deposit amounts, time limits to clear the bonus, and eligibility restrictions by state or account type. We do our best to summarize these accurately, but the operator's own terms and conditions always take precedence. Read them in full before you deposit.

Licensing, regulation and eligibility

Online poker in the US is regulated on a state-by-state basis; there is no single federal license covering the whole country. Whether a particular poker site can legally accept you depends on which state you're physically located in when you play, not where you live on paper. It's your responsibility to confirm that a site is licensed to operate in your state and that you meet any residency or age requirements before creating an account or making a deposit. We reference licensing status where we have verified it, but we make no claim about a site's legal standing beyond what has been confirmed at the time of review, and licensing can change.

Accuracy of content and no professional advice

Content on this site — including reviews, comparison tables, and figures relating to bonuses, rake or payment speeds — is provided for general information only. It is not financial, legal or gambling advice. We take reasonable care to keep information current and accurate as of the fact-check date shown on each page, but we cannot guarantee that every detail remains correct after an operator changes its terms. We accept no liability for losses arising from reliance on information found here, including losses incurred while gambling with a third-party operator.
