GoldenNuggetPoker.com currently offers a “free-to-play” platform only.

Legislation is widely expected to pass either at the federal level or on a state-by-state basis over the next 12 months. 

Sites like GoldenNuggetPoker.com, Zynga, Bam Poker and Gambling911.com endorsed Camasino.com are primarily focusing on building their player base now before diving head first into the “real money” market.  Camasino does offer “real money” play outside the USA. 

“Our core focus (right now) is building a community of players,” said Elton Pereira, Co-founder and CEO of BamPoker.com, in an interview with Gambling911.com. 

Pereira noted that Bam Poker already has the capacity to allow “real money” play when that time arrives.
