Black Chip Poker Review
A WPN room with rich promotions and one of the biggest weekly schedules.
Overview
Black Chip Poker is a Winning Poker Network room that has been running since 2012. Because it draws from the same shared pool as Americas Cardroom, it offers the same deep liquidity — but wraps it in a different promotions and rewards package that some players prefer.
It's a natural pick for value hunters: you get WPN's traffic and tournaments, plus a requestable 27% rakeback deal and a distinct six-tier loyalty ladder.

Best for
Promo hunters who want WPN traffic with an alternative rewards angle.
US players
Open to players from most US states as a Winning Poker Network skin. As with all WPN rooms, a small number of states may be restricted — check from your location.
Canadian players
Available to Canadian players, sharing the same large WPN player pool and tournament schedule as Americas Cardroom.
Bonus & promotions
100% first-deposit bonus up to $2,000, added automatically after a qualifying deposit and cleared through real-money play over 60 days.
Rakeback / rewards: Up to 27% rakeback (must be requested) plus 6-tier Elite Benefits. Promo code: Check site for current code.
Welcome bonus & rakeback
The headline offer is a 100% first-deposit bonus up to $2,000, automatically added after a qualifying deposit of $25 or more and valid for 60 days as you clear it through play. That matches ACR's headline number while sitting on the same network.
Where Black Chip differentiates is rakeback: players can secure up to 27% back, though it must be requested rather than being on by default. On top of that, the Elite Benefits program runs six tiers where you collect points toward escalating cash rewards.
Tournaments
Because it shares the WPN schedule, Black Chip guarantees millions in weekly prize pools — recent schedules total north of $9 million per week. Marquee Sunday majors and the network's flagship series give tournament players plenty to chase.
Everyday grinders are well served too, with a full daily calendar, satellites into the big events and access to the network's signature Venom qualifiers.
Software & experience
Running on the network's modernized SJH software, Black Chip supports Windows, Mac and mobile (iOS and Android). The client includes the same fast-fold Blitz tables and Jackpot Poker lottery sit & gos found across WPN.
In practice the playing experience is near-identical to Americas Cardroom — your choice between them usually comes down to which bonus and rewards structure fits your volume.

Our verdict
Black Chip Poker is an excellent alternative entry point into the Winning Poker Network. You get the same market-leading traffic and tournaments as ACR, with a rewards package built around requestable rakeback and a tiered loyalty system.
It ranks #3 mainly because it is a skin of the same pool rather than a distinct ecosystem — but for players who prefer its promotions, it's every bit as strong a home.
