BCPoker a new online pokerroom wants you

[Danydee]

Latest update:

Code:

Access to BC Poker on BC.Game is open to players with VIP level 15 and above.

Web version: https://prodpc.bcpoker.com/ (registration required)

If I'm not mistaken, users need more than 100k XP to reach level 15, which is not much, especially if you place bets on sports. I don't know the exact reason, but it seems to me that in this way, they decided to weed out bots and those users who played only free satellites.

I contacted the support to ask them about that question, and what they told is that in addition to the VIP level you need to be KYC verified !

This is one of the dumbest thing I've actually seen. It make sense if they want to limit the number of people that want to access their freerolls but limiting access to everyone below level 15 and not KYC verified is pretty much the same as throwing away your potential customer lol

Well for some people, KYC is probably not an issue but seriously why would you turn away a new customer that want to play poker just because its a new account lol.

level 15 is VIP 15 I assume? you need 88300 XP so thats mean you have to wager $88,300 to unlock poker or half of that if you wager it in sportsbook since it count as double for each dollar

Wagering $88000 isn't really all that hard but with BC and their high house edge originals it might be a little bit of a challenge to not lose your ass doing so. Maybe they are only looking for serious players who don't mind losing in order to gain access?

Well, KYC is always unpleasant and discourages users not only on gambling platforms but also on many other sites. However, it should be noted that this is typical for almost all poker rooms. To be honest, I can't even remember any other popular poker room that still doesn't ask for verification from users.

I tried to find more on TOS but did not..

As the error message when try entering do not mention KYC, maybe someone can try assking the support again, or someone above VIP15 can tell us !

They can go straight and create bcpoker.com account, even using same email as bc.game create a new different account!

There is (still) no restrictions on bcpoker.com site itself.

I don't know what bc.game is trying to achieve here. Now you need to be a VIP in order to play poker there? Honeslty, whoever is suggesting these changes, hats off to him

Still does not make any sense. If they wanted to divert traffic to bc.poker, they should have used a carrot instead of a stick. I have a KYC verified account at bc.games, now I have to make another one and go through KYC again. This is not a player-centric approach I must say.

 KYC is not mandatory to bcpoker.com

Well, we can assume that there was an invasion of cheaters on their poker platform, and they decided to deal with them in such a drastic way. But even if this is the case, the decision to limit access to all newcomers seems strange. At the very least, it will make it harder for bc poker to compete with other poker platforms.

Yes, but at any time they can ask for KYC procedure.

KYC Policy (Bc.Poker mobile app):



Until recently, it was possible to complete the KYC procedure well in advance.

Maybe it's a temporary solution.

I don't think that is the exact issue !

You can always go straight to BCPoker to play poker.. but so

here is the point I think,  you can have access from bcpoker site,  and gain an additional second access from bc.game site ..  (as there was no link between the two at the first, The same email give two accounts)..  So as there could be nothing to object to that, I think that that is the motivation.. limit access from BC-game site to VIP users.. as everybody can always go straight to BC-Poker site (bcpoker.com) to play!

Yes, but at any time they can ask for KYC procedure.

Like almost any betting platform on the industry !
