The promotion will run from 11:00 on 15 June to 23:59 (CET) on 31 December 2022 (the "Promotional Period"). This offer is not available in conjunction with any other offer. By taking part in this promotion, you hereby agree to these Specific Promotional Terms and Conditions and to our General Terms and Conditions. In order to participate in this promotion, an Eligible Player (as defined below) must place an Eligible Deposit (as defined below) during the Promotional Period.
Players must:
be aged 18 or over;
be a new player on www.partypoker.com.
(an “Eligible Player”)
An Eligible Deposit is a real money deposit that complies with the following requirements:
it is made within the Promotional period;
it is a minimum of $10 USD made in one transaction (split deposits will not qualify).
(an “Eligible Deposit”)
Mechanics
If an Eligible Player makes an Eligible Deposit (as defined above) during the Promotional Period, we shall credit them with a pending bonus equal to 100% of their Eligible Deposit up to a maximum of $600 USD (“the Deposit Bonus”); plus up to $30 USD in tickets. The Deposit Bonus shall be credited to the Eligible Player’s account automatically on a successful Eligible Deposit.
Bonus type: ‘release restricted’: the Deposit Bonus funds are pending and shall be visible in the account section, but shall not be available to play with until the loyalty point requirements (as set out below) are met and the bonus funds are released. The pending Deposit Bonus shall be released to a player in increments of 10% of the Deposit Bonus amount as a player accumulates 10% of the Total Loyalty Points (as defined below). The tickets bonus will be credited up to 6 days as part of the up to $30 USD.
100% up to $600 USD Terms and Conditions
To release the full Deposit Bonus amount the player must accumulate 4x the Deposit Bonus amount in loyalty points (“Total Loyalty Points”). The Total Loyalty Points must be accumulated within 90 days from the date of the Eligible Deposit (the “Time Limit”). Each time the player accumulates 10% of the Total Loyalty Points required, they will receive a 10% increment of the Deposit Bonus.
For example:
Player A makes an Eligible Deposit of $20 USD and receives a pending Deposit Bonus of $20 USD. To release the full Deposit Bonus amount ($20 USD), Player A is required to accumulate 4 x $20 USD in loyalty points = 80 (Total Loyalty Points) within 90 days from the date of the Eligible Deposit. As Player A accumulates 10% of the Total Loyalty Points requirement (i.e. 8 loyalty points), 10% of the Deposit Bonus ($2 USD) is released
A player accumulates 1 point for every $1 USD (or currency equivalent) rake on poker. Loyalty points may only be accumulated on poker. The player shall lose any increments of the Deposit Bonus that are not released within the Time Limit. Each increment of the Deposit Bonus that is released shall be credited as cash to the Eligible Player’s account automatically once the player reaches the loyalty point requirement.
Up to $30 USD in tickets Terms and Conditions
When an Eligible Player places an Eligible Deposit on the Website on any day during the Promotional Period, their account will be credited with a bundle of their choice up to $30 USD worth of free play tickets over a six-day period as follows:

How we form the best poker sites Canada rating
When it comes to online poker in Canada, the country is a welcome haven for poker action. Canadians are the lucky ones as they get more poker options than almost any other country in the world. That's exactly what brought a lot of online poker professionals there.
The Internet offers so many different poker sites that a beginner can even get confused. Some of the rooms are good for regulars and some are perfect for amateurs. But there are a few key points that you should pay attention to in any case.
These room selection criteria are fundamental when choosing a poker room where you will spend a lot of time and earn real money.
License is required without exception
The most important factor for any player, regardless of preferences. If you play cash games or tournaments, you should only register on licensed sites.
What does having a room license mean for a user? First of all, the official and independent regulation of the site activity guarantees its customers safety at all levels. The personal data provided during registration and verification, including payment information, are securely protected and cannot be transferred to third parties. The player is sure that he will receive the money won.
Cardmates strongly recommends avoiding dubious offers from unlicensed platforms. This is fraught with loss of money or disclosure of personal information. How do you know if a particular resource has legit rights? At the bottom of the main page is always information about the license. Many indicate its number and date of issue. You can check the authenticity of data on independent international resources. Or go the easy way and choose a site for yourself from our list of best variants to play poker online Canada.
Various convenient payment methods
Since a lot of the poker room is related to finances, it is important that such operations are user-friendly and do not cause problems for him. That's why it's important to have a wide range of available payment methods. Let us immediately indicate that a lot depends on the country of which you are a resident.
In best Canadian online poker sites, there are often several options to choose from: bank cards, payment systems (like Skrill or Neteller), e-wallets, banking operations, cryptocurrency. As a general rule, withdrawal of funds is possible through the method by which the deposit was made. If the room cannot transfer your winnings by deposit method, the administration will offer an alternative.
Available methods are usually indicated on the main page of the site in the form of icons. After authorization, the available systems for payments are displayed in your personal account in the cashier section. They may differ depending on the region.
An important advantage is the absence of commission for payments. This information is displayed in the “Terms and Conditions” sections, so before creating an account and depositing money, Cardmates recommends that you carefully read the rules of a particular site. Such information can also be requested via the online chat.
In addition to options for depositing and withdrawing money, it is worth paying attention to restrictions on the amount of transactions. They often depend on the chosen payment method. For example, for electronic wallets, this range may be larger than for bank cards. The same applies to the speed of transactions.

A lot of users try to find poker sites that accept Paypal in Canada, because earlier there were not so many of them. But now it’s not a problem as many resources work with Paypal. For example, we can name 888Poker, Unibet, Pokerstars and GGPoker.
Other important factors
If the site is licensed and accepts residents of a certain country, if it has enough convenient payment methods for depositing and withdrawing funds, then this is a good option to play. However, it's also worth checking out a few other must-haves that a quality site should have.
What advantages should top Canadian poker sites have?
- Quality software
- Quick withdrawal
- Easy access to support
- Profitable promotions
- Weak field of players
- A large number of tournaments
- The presence of cash games

Canadian star Daniel Negreanu is in the top 3 most profitable poker players on the planet. Throughout his career, he managed to win over $50,000,000 in poker.
Online poker in Canada: our choice
If we talk about poker in Canada, that is, certain sites that have long been on the market and managed to win both the authority and the love of users. These resources are known all over the world, there are practically no problems with them.
Here are the three most popular poker rooms to play online poker in Canada:
- GGPoker
- PartyPoker
- 888Poker
There are undeniable advantages to choose such platforms for the game:
- The long years of work have developed an impeccable reputation
- The largest poker series are held there, with the events where millions of dollars can be won for the first place
- Nice traffic and game is available at any time
- Regular promotions and various loyalty programs
- Professional support in different languages
- High quality software that receives constant updates and adapts to the desires of users
- A lot of payment systems with which these rooms collaborate
Such a large and authoritative poker room guarantees the withdrawal of funds and the creation of equal conditions for all its players. Here you can calmly play and not worry that the room will close without warning or will test some fraudulent actions.
However, there are other top options and we want to tell you more about them. They can be called a second top three, and each of them deserves a separate mention.

One of the most popular skins of the iPoker network. Among the advantages, players note regular rake races with a large prize pool, good traffic on various limits in holdem and omaha, spins with huge jackpots. Here you can get a bonus in the amount of a thousand euros for the first replenishment of the account, players can also count on the payment of a 30 percent rakeback.
This room will be an excellent choice for middle-level players and for professionals as an additional platform. For beginners, the rake on micro limits is slightly overstated, but it will be profitable for regulars to play here.

Many poker players think that the GG Network is only presented with its skin of GGPoper with its weak Asian players and a huge number of promotions and proposals for beginners. However, this is not at all so. There is another worthy room of this very network, it is called Natural8, and it is also authoritative and has the same advantages. There is a large bonus for the first deposit, monthly promotions for each discipline and poker format.
Also, there is a plus that it conducts satellites on the offline series, which are regularly held in Asia. For online poker CA is a really cool place, but it would be great to also try some games offline. And there is a really wide grid of tournaments, so a player with any bankroll can find something for himself on any day.

The poker room of the respected Chico Poker Network, about which many players have not heard, and this is not at all deserved. There are many advantages here: a large deposit bonus and really weak opponents. Yes, there is no rakeback, but good traffic and many amators outweigh it. You can also find a large selection of tournaments, especially multi table ones. With the middle and small bankroll there is a lot to choose from, and not only on the weekend. On the more expensive cash tables the players regularly win Bad Beat Jackpots.
How to start playing online poker
For citizens of Canada poker can be a fun and interesting occupation, but what is the right path to start? A new activity always causes stress and misunderstanding, so short and clear instructions can help along this path. In order to start engaging in poker online, you do not need to do something complex, and also this can be done without monetary investments.
What is needed for the start?
- Study the rules of the most popular variety of the game (that is, Texas Holdem). On this topic you can find many articles or videos where everything is dismantled to the smallest detail and in quite simple language.
- Figure out all existing combinations (since it is difficult to remember everything at once, you can save a list or even print it). Over time, all these names will be as familiar as the days of the week or months.
- View teaching videos for beginners or streams of several poker players. Thanks to it you can understand how the game takes place in real time, look at the hands and learn to analyze the results. Then it will not be so scary for the first time to be at a real poker table (although this is a table on the Internet).
- Pick up a poker room to start the game. To do this, you can take one of the most famous sites, the names of which are known even by those who have never played poker (for example, 888poker).

- Download the application or open a version right in the browser. Create a personal player account with private data.

Our rating of best poker websites Canada does not stand still, it may change depending on innovations on the sites and the appearance of new rooms.

FAQ
Yes, playing poker in Canada is legal. This country is considered by many to be one of the best places to live for poker players, as it has excellent gambling conditions. However, it is important to consider that there are different details depending on the province. Therefore, it is worth clarifying the information for each specific site when choosing for the game.
Almost all popular poker rooms accept players from Canada and operate legally in this country. To select a specific site, you can use our rating, which contains only authorized and proven reliable platforms. You can also ask the support of the room in question. Among the popular large sites, for example, we can name 888poker, Partypoker, TigerGaming.
Since Canada is a poker-friendly country, playing poker online for money is not a problem here. To do this, it is imperative to reach the legal age for the game and not fall under the lists of restrictions. Then you need to choose a platform for registration (our ratings of reliable rooms can come in handy here), enter the correct data and create an account. After that, you can safely make a deposit and start exploring various game formats.
Yes, it is a legit poker site for players from Canada. Gamblers can legally take part in different events with big guarantees and in cash games of various buy-ins. They are also allowed to make deposits and cashouts, and conduct other financial transactions. A fairly large number of Canadians choose this site to register and play, as it is famous for its promotions and quite weak opponents at the tables. 888 has always been legal in Canada and is the go-to resource of choice for beginners and pros alike.
In Canada it is legal to play not only in licensed online poker rooms, but also to take part in live games. As for playing for money at home with friends, this also does not violate any laws. It is allowed to both organize such games at home and join them. However, there are some rules, and the most important of them is that you cannot take rake from hands in such games. That is, it will be a violation to earn money by organizing home games.
The general answer is no, poker winnings are not taxed in Canada. This is one of the most important advantages of this state for poker players. However, this issue requires more attention. For amateur players, everything is simple, there really will be no taxes here with 100 percent certainty. But for professionals, there may be exceptions, since if poker is the only and regular source of income, then certain taxes can still be applied. Therefore, for such situations, it would be right to contact a tax consultant for a more detailed analysis.
