Terms and Conditions

These terms explain how weareeaton.com operates, what our poker site rankings do and don't mean, and what we expect from anyone using this site. By reading our reviews or clicking through to a poker operator, you're agreeing to the points below.

What this site does and doesn't do

Poker is an independent comparison and review resource covering online poker sites and apps available to players in the US. We publish rankings, mini-reviews and comparison tables based on publicly available information about operators such as Coinpoker, Bovada, Stake, Ignition, Americas Card Room, Black Chip Poker, Ya Poker, BC Poker, Betonline and Jack Poker. We do not operate any poker room, hold player funds, process deposits or withdrawals, or act as a gambling operator in any capacity. Nothing on this site is gambling activity itself — it is editorial content about where such activity can legally take place.

Affiliate relationships and how rankings are decided

weareeaton.com may earn a commission when a reader signs up with an operator through a link on this site. This is how independent review sites like ours are funded, and it does not cost you anything extra. Commercial relationships do not decide how sites are ranked or reviewed.

Our rankings are built from factors we can actually verify and compare: reported player traffic and liquidity at various stakes, the range of formats on offer (cash games, MTTs, Sit & Gos, Spin & Go and fast-fold variants), rake structures and rakeback or loyalty value, software and mobile app quality, deposit and withdrawal methods available to US players, cash-out speed, and the clarity of each operator's licensing and terms. No operator can pay for a higher position, and a paid placement never overrides the underlying assessment.

Bonus and promotion terms belong to the operator, not to us

Headline offers shown on this site — such as deposit matches, bonus percentages, or promotional cash and coin packages — are set and honored by the poker site itself, not by weareeaton.com. Every welcome bonus carries conditions that can include playthrough or wagering requirements, minimum deposit thresholds, time limits to clear the bonus, and eligibility restrictions by state or region. We summarize these terms where we can, but the operator's own terms and conditions always govern the offer. Always confirm current terms directly on the operator's site before depositing, and never rely on a bonus figure as a guarantee of value.

No guarantee of outcomes

Poker is a game that combines skill and chance, and no amount of research, rakeback, or site selection removes the risk of losing money. Nothing on weareeaton.com should be read as a promise of winnings, a suggestion that poker is a reliable source of income, or advice to gamble beyond what you can comfortably afford to lose. Our content is for informational and comparison purposes only.

Age, eligibility and legal standing

Online poker for real money in the US is regulated on a state-by-state basis; there is no single federal framework, and availability varies by where you live. You must meet the minimum legal gambling age in your state — 21 in most regulated states, though a small number set it at 18 — and you are responsible for confirming that real-money poker is lawful where you reside before signing up anywhere. This site does not verify individual eligibility, and nothing here should be treated as legal advice. For background on how operators are licensed and how player funds are typically safeguarded, see our page on security and cash-out speed.

Responsible gambling

If poker stops being enjoyable, starts affecting your finances, relationships or wellbeing, or you find yourself chasing losses, it's time to step back. Most regulated operators offer deposit limits, cool-off periods and self-exclusion tools — use them if they help. Free, confidential support is available around the clock through 1-800-GAMBLER. We also maintain a dedicated responsible gambling page with further resources, and readers in specific states should check for local self-exclusion programs, which we never encourage anyone to work around.

Accuracy, updates and third-party content

We work to keep reviews, ratings and comparison data current, but poker operators change their bonuses, licensing, banking options and features without notice. Figures and terms shown on this site were accurate as of our last review but can shift before we update the page. We are not responsible for outdated or changed terms on a third-party operator's own site, and we encourage you to verify current details directly with the operator before acting on anything you read here.

Intellectual property and acceptable use

The text, comparisons, ratings and layout on weareeaton.com are our own work and may not be copied, republished or reproduced elsewhere without permission. You may link to our pages and quote short excerpts with attribution. Automated scraping of our content or rankings is not permitted.

Limitation of liability

weareeaton.com is provided on an "as is" basis. We do not guarantee that any operator listed here will remain available, licensed or operating in your state, and we are not liable for losses arising from your use of any third-party poker site, including financial losses from gameplay, deposit or withdrawal issues, or account disputes. Any dispute over funds, bonus terms or account access should be raised directly with the operator in question.

Changes to these terms

We may update this page from time to time to reflect changes in our review process, affiliate arrangements or legal requirements. The date shown at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Continued use of weareeaton.com after a change means you accept the revised terms.
