Olive Branch Initiative
At GGPoker, we maintain a zero-tolerance stance against activities violating our Security and Ecology Policy. Our unwavering commitment to protecting our community has resulted in the permanent removal of violators from our network. We stand by this approach because fair play is fundamental to everything we do.

However, just as the poker industry grows and matures, we recognize that people can also change. Players who once contributed unsportsmanlike behavior may have since evolved, learned from their mistakes, and developed a genuine commitment to fair play.

In this spirit of growth and second chances, we are announcing the Olive Branch Initiative. This carefully structured initiative offers a reinstatement path for players previously banned from the GGPoker Network and a secondary review for players who feel wrongly accused.


If they were banned for little problems,i am ok with that.If they cheated,used RTA or something similar i dont agree with them coming back.
Otherwise i feel it's a good thing they did,because people will feel safe with their money over there!


They prob feel like allowing bumhunting regs back is ok for game economy...for now.

TOS is so vague anyway that they can label anyone bumhunter and off they go.


Hey, I qualified for 2500$ Express to Super Pass and I'm wondering if you have to play the registered tournament (only one I can see) or if you can unregister and play another one on later date in case there will be more?
I’m also wondering whether this step’s ticket and the 30k Super Pass ticket are sellable, thanks for help!


I have a question about EV cashout feature in GG. Lets say I go allin, pot $100, i have %40 equity, fish chooses to cash out. Board rolls out and i win. How does this effect me? do i win less or something?

It does not affect You at all.

you win the pot like normal. but gg forks up the $60 to pay him. so in that scenario gg loses and all the players win.


What happen to the daily leaderboard?

If GG was concerned about 'fair play', they would be genuinely willing to enter into discussion with those that have been unfairly banned from the network. Fwiw, I received a lifetime ban upon logging in from a different computer - never managed to play any hands that day. Over a year later, I've never been given a reason for the ban, or been able to chat with any GG rep.

If that is GG's genuine viewpoint, why was the olive branch tied down to a specific deadline? If 'fair play' is so important, why did the offer of fair treatment expire on a specific date?


anyone played/playing on the 7XL skin? someone posted a little while back it was possible to play on it with a VPN pointed to Israel? crypto deposits/withdrawls provided there were less than $500?... yay/nay?

How did Hinaru actually get caught for ghosting at that final table on GG? I assume someone ratted him out???


Is there a 3% exchange rate applied to the conversion from USDC to USD or USD to USDC?


Maybe the other played who was also banned with Hinaru, there was a second one whose name was not divulged ( source )

Oh damn..


Can someone explain to me why rake collected (as per DriveHUD 2) is $0.25 bigger on NL25 than the maximum cap? Official info:
- $0.10/$0.25 has 5% rake, caps at $2 -> which means that it caps for pots bigger than $40 - then $2 should remain as max cap.

However, despite my tracker showing $2.00 rake collected, $0.25 less is coming back to me and I have already checked quite a few hands.

Example:
1. Pot after all-in is $53.15. Therefore my expectation is:
- $2 rake
- $51.15 is my winnings


2. Yet the amount coming back to me is lowered by $0.25 and is $50.90. Our stacks where identical ($25 each + $3.15 from SB's 3-bet, who then x/f flop). What is going on?
