PokerStars Launches All-In Poker

PokerStars Launches All-In Poker

All-In Poker is a 6-max NLHE cash game format where players have only two options: all-in or fold. Here’s some info on how PokerStars All-In Poker is different from GGPoker AoF, the rake, and the new leader board.

Four Key Differences Between PokerStars All-In Poker and GGPoker AoF

All-In Poker is available only at NLHE tables with stakes ranging from $0.05/0.10 to $5/10.

  1. All-in Poker is 6-max, AoF is 4-max.
  2. Buy-In = 5 BB. On GGPoker’s AoF, the buy-in is 8 BB.
  3. Maximum Stack at the Table = 25 BB. Players cannot lose more than 25 BB in a single hand. GGPoker does not have such a cap.
  4. Rake = 4.50% to 5%. On GGPoker, the rake ranges from 3% to 6%, but there is also an additional Jackpot Fee equal to the rake amount and an All-In Fortune Fee.
