PokerNews recently launched a play-money poker room at the ClubGG app to give our readers the chance to play with family, friends, and, of course, the staff at PokerNews, in a safe environment with amazing software for free.
The app is powered by GGPoker and has many of the same features players love about the software that helped propel the site to one of the biggest real-money sites in the world in a very short period of time.
PokerNews will be hosting regularly scheduled tournaments as well as non-stop cash games in no-limit hold'em, pot-limit Omaha, and five-card pot-limit Omaha. ClubGG plans to add games in short deck hold'em (6+) and open-face Chinese (OFC) poker in the near future.
