5 Benefits of Playing Poker at Ignition

Poker is legendary. A game of skill, wits, huge decisions, steely nerves, big winners, bad beats and crazy stories. 

In 1973, the newborn FedEx company was facing bankruptcy over a $24,000 bill for fuel. Owner, Fred Smith (his real name, apparently) took his last $5,000 to Vegas and turned it into $27,000 in a couple of poker games, saving the company and setting him on a path of a net worth of more than $2 billion. In a reverse scenario, a poker player down to his last buck left the casino, drove to the next town and robbed a bank, claiming he had a bomb. He pocketed $5,000, which he took back to the poker game and proceeded to lose it all.5 Benefits of Playing Poker at Ignition

Because the game of poker has been around since the early 1800s, there are thousands of stories like that. And they go on to show how the game has become an integral part of life for pros and amateur players alike. From the Old West days of Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp to today’s millionaire players such as Dan Bilzerian ($200 million), Phil Ivey ($100+ million) and others, poker may be the most popular game on the planet. And why not? It’s a fascinating, challenging and fun pastime that could put a lot of money in your bank account.

We celebrate poker at Ignition in really big ways. You can get into a variety of games and tournaments. You can play poker and interact with other players. In fact, we offer many features to make the game endlessly exciting and potentially lucrative if you play your cards right. Ignition may have the best poker room you’ll ever play online. Here’s why:

1. Anonymous tables keep the game in your hands 

Hit the felt with total anonymity when you play poker at Ignition Casino. It assures your opponents stay clueless about you and your strategy. This is how we even the playing field just like playing in a live casino with strangers. 

If you’ve been playing poker online for a while, you realize that there are players out there who use heads-up displays (HUDs) to figure out your playing style. They use HUDs to track every hand you’ve ever played, learning your decisions and anticipating your moves. They gain an unfair advantage and slow your growth as a poker player.

At Ignition, we eliminate all that so you can play poker as intended. It’s a level playing field with no history shown to your opponents. There’s zero tracking software. It helps you build your live game skills. And the card sharks are shut out.

With anonymous tables at Ignition, IDs are replaced by numbers and every hand is played freely without building a profile. Whether you take your poker playing seriously or not, make anonymous tables your go-to and enjoy the freedom of playing incognito.
