Features of CoinPoker: Why Play Poker Online in Australia with Us?<\/h2>\r\nAre you looking to play online poker in Australia for real money, but not sure where to start?\r\n\r\nCoinPoker can offer some of the best and most exciting online poker Austrlia has to offer, and our platform boasts a wide variety of awesome features that you won\u2019t find anywhere else\u2026\r\n

The World\u2019s No. 1 Crypto Poker Site<\/h3>\r\nCoinPoker is one of the pioneering online poker platforms in Australia, allowing you to play for real money using cryptocurrency. Not only are we among the few poker sites offering this option, but we were also named the number one crypto poker site globally by\u00a0CryptoNews.com.\r\n\r\nYou can join the CoinPoker tables with our dedicated cryptocurrency, CHP, which you can obtain by first depositing with major coins such as BTC, ETH, and USDT and then converting it within the CoinPoker app, or by purchasing CHP directly from the following exchanges: KuCoin, AltCoin, HitBTC, ForkDelta or Yobit.\r\n

Decentralised Deck Shuffling<\/h3>\r\nWhen playing online poker with traditional providers, you might feel like the deck is unfairly shuffled. Perhaps your strong hands often lose to full houses, or your pocket Kings frequently run into pocket Aces.\r\n\r\nHowever, when you play poker online<\/a> in Australia with CoinPoker, you can actively participate in the deck shuffling. We use a fully decentralised RNG, the first of its kind.\r\n\r\nOur decentralised RNG employs a one-way cryptographic function with a secret \u2018shake factor\u2019 that\u2019s shared with all other players and CoinPoker. We then use these values to create the final shake value and shuffle the deck.\r\n

Unbeatable Bonuses, Rakeback & Promotions<\/h3>\r\nAt CoinPoker we offer some of the best promotions and special offers<\/a> available to Australian online poker enthusiasts.\r\n\r\nFirst, you can claim a 150% welcome bonus on your first deposit (up to $2,000). This bonus is released in installments as you play, with the required rake amount depending on your deposit value.\r\n\r\nWe also offer a highly competitive rakeback promotion. Every week, you can earn back 33% of the rake you paid in the previous week for tournaments and cash games.\r\n\r\nTo benefit from this offer, simply have CHP in your account, as the rakeback will be automatically credited in CHP every Monday.\r\n

Thrilling Online Poker Tournaments<\/h3>\r\nHere at CoinPoker, we have a wide variety of exciting online poker tournaments<\/a> with a range of buy-ins, guaranteed prize pools and game types. You will also find tournaments with Regular, Turbo and Hyper blind structures.\r\n\r\nWe also feature regular special tournament series and promotions, as well as monthly tournament leaderboards, giving you the chance to win a share of \u20ae15,000 each month. Leaderboard points are calculated based on buy-ins, tournament placement, and the number of participants, with cash and tournament tickets awarded to the top 150 players.\r\n

Exciting Mobile Poker App<\/h3>\r\nAt CoinPoker we also have a mobile app available for both Android and Apple devices, offeirng the same great tournaments and cash games as our desktop app, with a smooth and fast interface that makes playing poker on-the-go simple.\r\n\r\nThe app is also compatible with Android and Apple vertical tablet devices.\u00a0Click here<\/a>\u00a0to get started.\r\n

Poker Games at CoinPoker<\/h2>\r\nHere at CoinPoker we know what you want: your favourite poker games in one place, without having to filter through dozens of different variants that you\u2019ve never played before.\r\n\r\nAlthough we\u2019ve got hundreds of different cash games and tournaments with varying stakes and buy-ins, as well as game structures (including Regular, Turbo and Hyper), if you\u2019re looking to play online poker in Australia you\u2019re probably looking for\u00a0No Limit Texas Hold\u2019em\u00a0or\u00a0Pot Limit Omaha (PLO). If you\u2019re a big PLO fan, you might also love\u00a05-card Pot Limit Omaha, which we also have on offer for CoinPoker players.\r\n

Texas Hold \u2018Em<\/h3>\r\nTexas Hold'em<\/a> is probably the world\u2019s most popular variation of poker, where each player receives two private cards, known as \u2018hole\u2019 cards, and five community cards are dealt face up.\r\n\r\nPlayers use any combination of their private cards and the community cards to make the best possible five-card hand, and this could include all five community cards and neither of the player\u2019s hole cards.\r\n\r\nThe game has four betting rounds: pre-flop, flop, turn, and river, and in No Limit Texas Hold\u2019em the amount you can bet is uncapped. Strategic betting, bluffing, and reading opponents are crucial elements, and the objective is to win pots by having the best hand, or by making opponents fold.\r\n

Pot Limit Omaha<\/h3>\r\nIn Pot Limit Omaha (PLO)<\/a> each player is dealt four private cards, while five community cards are dealt face up. Unlike Texas Hold'em, players must use\u00a0exactly<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0two of their hole cards and three of the community cards to form the best five-card hand.\r\n\r\nThe betting structure is \"pot limit,\" meaning players can bet up to the current size of the pot. Because players begin with four hole cards, PLO typically results in higher hand values and more frequent draws (when a player needs one card to complete a strong five card poker hand) compared to Texas Hold'em, making it arguably a game of greater complexity and potential for big swings in chip stacks.\r\n

5-Card Omaha<\/h3>\r\n5-Card Pot Limit Omaha<\/a> (5-Card PLO) is a poker variation that builds on traditional Pot Limit Omaha by giving each player an additional hole card.\r\n\r\nLike in regular PLO, players must use exactly two of their five private cards, combined with three of the five community cards, to create the best five-card hand. The increased number of hole cards leads to more potential hand combinations and greater complexity. Like regular PLO, betting is capped at the current size of the pot, but the additional card in 5-Card PLO often results in more action and larger pots.\r\n

Online Poker in Australia: Popularity, Trends & Market Size<\/h2>\r\nOnline gambling is highly regulated in Australia, but\u00a0revenue from this market<\/a>\u00a0is still expected to reach US$10.14bn in 2024, hitting US$12.82bn by 2029. What\u2019s more,\u00a0in a 2022 survey<\/a>\u00a0three out of four Aussies aged over 18 reported spending money on one or more gambling products in the previous 12 months.\r\n\r\nDespite the Australian government implementing tighter regulations governing online gambling compared to many countries around the world, Australians have always been big fans of poker both live and online. The high profile success of the likes of poker pros Joe Hachem, Jeff Lisandro and Michael Addamo have helped to grow the game\u2019s popularity.\r\n\r\nLive poker is particularly booming down under, with the Australian National Poker League running dozens of events across every state in the nation, with a wide range of buy-in levels and game types. The Australian Poker Tour also runs events throughout the year, with some really exciting tournaments and eye-watering prize pools on offer.\r\n

Can You Play Real Money Poker Online in Australia?<\/h2>\r\nThe\u00a0Interactive Gambling Act 2001<\/a>\u00a0made it illegal for gambling providers to offer some online services to Australian citizens, including online casinos. The act also made it illegal to advertise those services in Australia. While these restrictions work with local providers, international gambling websites can still be found online and accessed by Australian poker fans.\r\n\r\nThis provides opportunities for Aussies to play on websites like CoinPoker. That said, there are few reported cases of individuals being prosecuted for playing poker online provided by international companies.\r\n

Taxation of Poker Winnings in Australia<\/h3>\r\nIf you\u2019re playing online poker in Australia for real money you might be wondering if you need to declare your winnings to the\u00a0Australian Taxation Office<\/a>. Fortunately, Aussie CoinPoker players do not need to declare gambling winnings as they are not considered \u2018assessable income\u2019. The exception is if you\u2019re playing poker professionally and using it to make a steady income. In these cases an Australian court would consider the following factors:\r\n
