I'd like to ask you what it is with this poker room Coin Poker because when i want to login, after i've passed the email address in they say so: In order to protect your account , we have implemented a simple one-time KYC procedure. Please download the Civic application and verify your account. For a detailed guide, please see this infographic. The problem is i do not trust what they want. Is for the first time when i hear of this application. I'm not so confident. What you think? is certain or is a program that can make your account vulnerable.

If i understand their website correctly, every player there has to go through this identification process one time. A strange setup, as even nowadays not everyone has a smartphone. So i would not be concerned about the account there, but more about the app on the phone

A simple question for all the friends who know CoinPoker, It´s really such a good poker´s room for play? Why? There have a good menu of kinds of games, or there are a lot of freerolls? There are a ton of fish players? They give you a nice welcome package, with free bank roll money, tickets for tournaments and good bonus? Why you tryed to acces to a poker´s room who puts such high barriers? Tell me and I begin to try too!

The room doesn't offer any promos at this time, and the only games they have running are NL Hold'em and PLO. So from a pure poker based point of view, they are not that interesting. But some people might hope to make some bucks with the coins the room uses.

I dont really get it why some businesses, asking hings like this. Why you have to have a cell phone, and in this case IOS or android to play in a site? And what about windows phone users. Why they are not able to play. This is just silly.

probably mobile phones are hacking faster and they must do that for added safety. I do not know how safe that application is, that's why i asked here but i think i will not play in that room. This application annoys me and i did not play poker on the phone, i played only in pc. Because of the application i say stop to play in this room.

I think that when we discard the simple answers, so only the complicated ones remain! May be there is a psicological explanation...it´s seems, like in the human´s relations, that some people make big efforts when some one near (girlfriend, friend, co-worker, etc) treats him badly. They even try harder with those who mistreat them than with whom they show affection for hhim. Something like that the real pleasure is to face difficulties beyond offering a prize or not... Here in my country, a tango say "to be able to love first you have to suffer"

if we're talking about simple answers then i have to say that: I did not get the answer to this question. Probably the answer to this question is unknown to anyone. I understand that this poker room is supported by Tony fcuking G. but this Civic application is an unknown for me and i hate that. Remains to be seen if CoinPoker will remain with this application.

Sorry CALICUL you don´t deserve this thoughtlessness... You always answer our questions and cleared our doubts, I´m really sorry. I don´t know this poker´s room and even less that "Civic aplication". I wouldn´t download and install in my PC because I´m very suspicious and don´t like that someone force me to do this and don´t explain it with a lot of data. Why do you want to acces to this poker´s room, wich advantage have it? Althought all the new poker´s room are reforceing their security sistem, this case is very rare. I don´t hear anything like this.....my advise is: don´t do it! Sorry CALICUL!

I'm going to send a message to Tony G. on his social accounts to tell him it's not right what he does and to give up this program Civic Application because it is frustrating. I'm joking of course. I tried this camera to see how it is and i liked it. Is like the majority but i did not play much because of that program. I played only 4 or 6 players on the table with 5 minutes blinds. Works with crypto coins and i just played freerolls.

I also read a little about them. They say that: have revolutionary technology and immediate transactions. They are considered a transparent poker room. I do not know if coin poker uses a pyramid schema because i have played only 10-15 freeroll games in 5 days and i did not make a deposit. Certainly all the poker rooms cash the money very quickly from the players but when it comes to cash withdrawal it's a little harder...

To be able to cash out, you need to have cash in the first place. As all play there is handled in their own cryptocoins, which are barely convertible at this time, i would consider them more of a playmoney site.
The rules in online gambling world are become stricter every year. More and more sites are implementing this Know Your Customer procedure nowadays. Times when you could play and withdraw money without a verification process almost gone

You are right. Those time have passed because online games is popular and taxation authorities went out after the money hunt. Only money is in the authorities heads. Everyone is in the chase after money and people must to pay all taxes. Because of this verification process is more difficult.
It means that I'll also try to register there shortly.
