Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions govern your use of oscarscuba.com. By browsing this site, reading our reviews, or clicking through to any of the poker operators we cover, you accept the terms set out below. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.

What this site is and is not

Real Money Online Poker Sites is an independent information and comparison resource covering online poker sites and apps available to players in the US. We publish reviews, rankings and guides such as our Best Online Poker Sites for US Players page to help readers compare operators on things like game traffic, bonus terms, deposit and withdrawal methods, and mobile support.

We are not a poker operator, we do not process deposits or withdrawals, and we do not accept wagers of any kind. We have no control over, and take no responsibility for, the accounts, funds, gameplay or customer service of any third-party operator listed on this site. Any dispute about a deposit, bonus, withdrawal or account decision must be taken up directly with the operator in question.

Commercial relationships and how rankings work

oscarscuba.com may earn a commission when readers click through to, or sign up with, an operator featured on this site. This does not cost you anything extra, and it does not influence the order in which sites are ranked. Our editorial team scores operators against a consistent set of factors — player traffic and liquidity, game variety across cash games, tournaments, Sit & Gos and formats like Spin & Go, rake and rakeback value, software and mobile quality, deposit and withdrawal options, and customer support — and no operator can pay for a better position. Where a bonus or promotion is mentioned, such as those from Coinpoker, Bovada, Stake, Ignition or Americas Card Room, we describe the offer as published by the operator at the time of writing, but you should always confirm the current terms, wagering requirements, time limits and eligibility rules directly on the operator's own site before signing up, since these details can change without notice.

Accuracy of information

We work to keep reviews, bonus details, ratings and comparison tables accurate and current, and this page was last fact-checked around September 2026. Even so, operator terms, licensing status, bonus structures and game offerings can change quickly. We make no guarantee that every detail on this site is current at the moment you read it, and we accept no liability for decisions made on the basis of outdated or inaccurate third-party information. If you spot something that looks wrong, you're welcome to let us know through our Contact Us page.

Age and eligibility

This site and the operators it reviews are intended only for adults who meet the minimum legal gambling age in their state — 21 in most regulated US states, though a small number set the threshold at 18. Online poker for real money is regulated on a state-by-state basis in the US; there is no federal framework, so availability, licensing and legal status vary depending on where you live. It is your responsibility to confirm that real money poker is legal in your jurisdiction and that you meet all age and residency requirements before creating an account with any operator. Nothing on this site is intended to encourage or facilitate play by anyone under the applicable legal age.

No guarantee of winnings

Poker involves an element of skill, but outcomes are never guaranteed, and every hand carries the risk of losing money. Nothing on oscarscuba.com should be read as a promise or implication that you will win, profit, or recover losses by playing at any site we review. We do not present poker as a source of income, and we do not encourage anyone to stake more than they can afford to lose or to chase losses in the hope of recovering them.

Responsible gambling

If gambling stops being enjoyable or starts affecting your finances, relationships or wellbeing, help is available. Call or text the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER, free and confidential, at any time. Many states also run their own self-exclusion programs through licensed operators, and we encourage anyone who needs a break to use them rather than switch sites to work around them. See our Responsible Gambling page for more resources and guidance on setting limits.

Intellectual property and use of content

The text, reviews, comparison tables and design of oscarscuba.com are our own work and may not be copied, republished or redistributed without permission. Operator names, logos and trademarks referenced on this site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and comparison purposes only.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, oscarscuba.com and its operators, employees and contributors are not liable for any loss, damage or dispute arising from your use of this site or your dealings with any third-party poker operator, including losses related to gameplay, deposits, withdrawals, bonuses or account access. Use of this site, and any decision to sign up with a listed operator, is entirely at your own discretion and risk.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes in our content, our commercial arrangements, or applicable law. The version published on this page is the one currently in effect. Continued use of the site after any update means you accept the revised terms.
