Poker has always played a part in the heart and soul of Betcoin in its beginning years, and coming into to 2024, the long and anticipated return has finally arrived with Betcoin Social Poker. Poker has always been one of the most influential and exciting ways to gamble, giving you full control of your next move, and giving you complete power over how you control your funds. Being able to test Betcoin Social head on, this is the exact experience you'll feel when heading onto the table, and innovatively feels like a real experience. From the environment, look, and sounds while navigating around and playing on the tables, Betcoin Social does not only feel absolutely welcoming, but competitive to what other brands have to offer. After testing the waters, entering my first tournament and successfully winning my first Free Roll tournament, here's a breakdown of my experience heading to the felt on Betcoin Social for the first time.

Betcoin Social opens up with a classic, and sleek interface, showing you everything you'd like to see all on the first screen. Being able to see my current balance, navigate between my current games, while looking for new action were all seeming less and simple when navigating around the opening screen. Cash Games, Tourneys, Sit & Go, and Rapid options were all a click away, while the list of games available for these options were presented in a manner that's very easy to find what you're looking for. Further to this point, Betcoin Social goes on step further, allowing you to sort the current games by "Table Name", "Game", "Stakes", "Type", "Avg. Pot", H/HR", and "Players" so you can find the exact table or number of action you're seeking. Being able to sort by player count and stake is a big plus, when I'm not looking for a full table, but still want to jump into a looser game.

Between the selection of games, Tournaments have been a complete joy, and while most of the tournaments cost close to nothing to enter and the lower-mid stakes, the prize pool of these have been very rewards, even at times when there are not a lot of players on. I was able to go down the list of future games, and doing so had seen daily Free Roll tournament's, which also is a very helpful way to try and build your skill level, and bankroll both at the same time which was a positive outcome. Cash games and Sit & Go's also felt the same way, though while Betcoin Social still seems to be working on expanding the player base, there was always a tournament or Cash Game going that I was able to jump into or queue into with other waiting players. Overall, my experience navigating, and getting to the games was simple and easy enough for anyone new or old to the game to do.

While at the tables, the look and gameplay felt as it should, just like Poker. While playing in my first tournament, not only did the table, cards and sound look nice, but the sounds felt pleasant to hear. What I found most exciting about my overall experiencing playing cards here, is that the run-outs felt true to what real Poker was at the casino, or a home game with your friends. Of course, in a game such a Texas Hold'em you're going to experience bad beats and coolers, but through-out the whole time I was playing, not once did it ever feel computer generated, and the cards felt true to the game played in-person. It's hard to find a Poker Room that has a true feel, but at Betcoin Social it was one of the few times I enjoyed myself through the ups and downs, because the gameplay felt true.

On an ending note, Betcoin Social has also inspired me to use PBR Coin in a more thoughtful and fun way. With Betcoin Social Poker, I have time not to work on my craft, while collecting PRB at the same time, and to me both of those things are a pleasing surprise when they're both offered for free. Overall, Betcoin Social has been a pleasant surprise, and a wonderful addition to the website, one which will keep me coming back every day.
