Quick facts

Minimum buy-in
The lowest live tables run 1 and 2 sat blinds and seat you from a 100 sat buy-in. Higher tables run 5/10 and 25/50 blinds, buying in from 500 and 2,500 sats.
Checking a result
Poker shuffles per table rather than per player, so each table publishes a SHA-256 commitment to its server seed before a hand is dealt. Any seated player can rotate the table seed, which publishes the previous one. Enter a table id and hand number, or a revealed seed with the client seed and nonce, into the poker hand checker. It re-derives the full 52-card deck in your own browser, so the page never asks our servers what the answer should be.
Cashing out
Chips in front of you at a table are not part of your withdrawable balance. Leave the table to cash your stack back into balance first, which you can do at any time. The minimum withdrawal is 100 sats, paid as an LNURL-withdraw QR: any Lightning wallet with LNURL support scans it and pulls the sats into your own wallet, and your wallet supplies the invoice, so no payout address is stored on your account. Withdrawing normally requires the account to have deposited at least 100 sats at some point, but sats you earn from tasks such as offers, microjobs and the bug bounty are exempt up to the amount you have earned, with no deposit at all. Offer earnings carry one extra first-payout check: they stay locked until you have earned 10,000 sats from offers, and any withdrawal you complete lifts that check for good. Microjob and bug bounty sats are not affected by it. See ways to earn.

What stakes and tables does Lightning Poker offer?

No Limit Texas Hold'em on heads-up, 6-max and full ring (9-max) tables. Blinds start at 1/2 sats with a 100-sat minimum buy-in, and higher-stakes tables open in the lobby as players fill them. Every table row shows its blinds, buy-in range and open seats before you join, and the lobby only lists tables that are running right now.

Can I play Bitcoin poker without depositing?

Poker seats use your cash balance, and free scratchcard and free spin rewards land as bonus balance first. Play them at roulette, dice, slots or blackjack to clear their playthrough (1x for scratchcard, 5x for the free spin); once a reward is unlocked it moves to cash balance, and accumulated claims can be combined into a buy-in once your cash balance reaches 100 sats, no deposit required.

Is the deal provably fair?

Yes. Each hand is dealt from a deck shuffled with HMAC-SHA256 from a server seed the table commits to before the deal plus a client seed you can set yourself, and every result is settled on the server, never in your browser. Re-derive any past hand on the poker verifier, and read the full poker house rules.

Do I need an account or KYC to play poker here?

You need a free account, created the moment you sign in with a Lightning wallet or an email. There is no KYC: no ID, selfie, or address check. See our privacy policy for what account and gameplay data we collect.

How do I cash out poker winnings?

Leave the table and your stack returns to your balance at once. Wins land in your balance the moment the round settles. Withdrawals go out as an LNURL-withdraw QR that any LNURL wallet can scan, and clear over Lightning in seconds. Withdrawals unlock after a first deposit of just 100 sats.
