POKERMASTER REVIEW
PokerMaster is the flagship of Asian poker boom. Being a recently launched chinese poker app, it works basically like a private undergound network where players can exchange coins for CNY, the local Chinese currency. PokerMaster has not just expanded very fast among Asian Poker players (what an insane market and poker growth potential if you think about it) but has already become famous among worldwide high-stakes players and some of them have already joined the tables.
If you are familiar with the traditional gambling operators that are part of stable networks, you are probably asking yourself which is the reason for using all these poker apps instead of a standard client. Well, the reason lies in a huge underground market which adds value to the online poker community by expanding to new markets. Perhaps you don't know, but China regime regarding online activities is more restrictive and online poker is forbidden there. However, as we live in a free modern society, solutions have been found to avoid the hurdles. By joining a Chinese Poker App you can exploit rich Asian poker amateurs who want to gamble some money online.
Thus, PokerMaster uses a play money application as a platform to run real money games, being organized in clubs, each of them offering tables at different poker types and stakes. This scheme allows them to avoid local regulation and bring Chinese poker players to play real money games. Though, the players cannot join real money games by themselves, therefore they need to work with a trusted agent to be able to deposit or cashout from PokerMaster and to have access to the best clubs.

PokerMaster Rake Structure
PokerMaster does not use a standard rake structure, meaning they do not charge rake from pots.
Instead, at the end of each game session, at each individual table, winners (players who won money in that specific session) pay a 5% commission. So, if you won 10.000 CNY at the end of the session you will actually receive 9.500 CNY.
Players who have lost in that specific session are not charged.
PokerMaster Traffic Report and Currency
PokerMaster Private Games
Being an underground network with private games and a large variety of clubs, PokerMaster is not tracked like a normal poker room, so traffic is relative and varies a lot from club to club.
PokerMaster is offering 3 types of poker games:

Stakes and Straddle Games
The stakes you can play start from 2CNY/4CNY (which is approx 0.25EUR/0.50EUR) and go up to 1000CNY/2000CNY (125EUR/250EUR). In most of the clubs you can find action up to 100CNY/200CNY, while higher stakes games can be found in specific clubs only.
