Crypto poker site CoinPoker is hosting the 2025 High Stakes Cash Game World Championship (CGWC).
The top poker professionals from across the globe are taking each other on for huge money prizes, pride and to reign supreme as cash game world champion.
In partnership with PokerStrategy.com, the promotion began on November 10 and finishes on December 7.
150k USDT In Clover, DavyJones992 Leads The Way
DavyJones992 is widely regarded as one of the best real money online poker site players on the planet and currently sits in first place.
He has amassed over 150,000 USDT in winnings with 4,000 hands played to date but faces stiff competition from a strong field.
Last year’s champion Owen ‘PR0DIGY’ Messere is in the mix as well as SeaLlama, Kayhan Mokri, Asianflushie, Barak ‘iWasOnly17’ Wisbrod, Jasam Gale and Yolan Cohen among others.
The competition provides an excellent opportunity to get a glimpse at some of the most famous names in poker – and more importantly the wave of rising professionals climbing the ranks.

You can’t forget household name Linus ‘LLinusLLove’ Loeliger, who as of writing is $40k under EV and over six figures in the red but regardless he is one to keep a close eye on.
Loeliger has played nearly 15,000 hands, the second-most in total to Riggedeck’s 20,000 – an anonymous pro enjoying a hot streak, $85k above EV.
When CoinPoker traffic is at its peak, 12 tables of the CGWC have been running at 50/100 USDT stakes.
Alongside Tether, CoinPoker accepts deposits in USDC, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and fiat currency in some countries.
With transparent blockchain technology, its proof of reserves are backed 1:1 in cold storage wallets.
The verifiable RNG uses the same secure technology that is behind the Ethereum network (KECCAK-256).
Rake Free Poker Games
There is zero rake charge when playing in the CGWC at CoinPoker as the offshore site simply wants to encourage the world’s best players to take each other on with no strings attached.
The lucky champion will receive a custom Rolex valued at $35k. To make the competition as exciting as possible for spectators, some tables will reveal winning players’ cards at showdown.
The CoinPoker website has all of the details regarding the CGWC promotion.
Players who catch the eye will receive an invite to exclusive Sunday VIP games to compete against CoinPoker ambassadors. Most recently, US YouTuber Ryan Depaulo tried his hand against the competition’s best.
Loeliger successfully called Depaulo’s all-in river bluff with just 8 high to scoop the 12,500 USDT prize.
Linus love correctly called my river jam on KKKK4 with pocket 8s.

Last month, CoinPoker held a Pot Limit Omaha CGWC which saw anonymous player ‘godfromstock’ win the world title.
The site also stages a ‘CoinMasters’ promo to cater for online players with a schedule of MTTs, awarding one player with a package valued at $100,000 as well as a WSOP main event buy-in.
Benjamin ‘Bencb’ Rolle, the current WSOP online main event champion, is an ambassador for CoinPoker.
New players to poker are welcomed too by way of the Black Friday Cyber Stacks promotion, where free cash is randomly gifted to microstakes players.
Watch The Cash Game World Championship
If you would like to watch the CGWC it will be live streamed on the PokerStrategy YouTube channel. Highlights will be on CoinPoker’s channel as well as ambassador Bobby James’ channel.
The key moves have been well publicised on platforms like Card Player Magazine and PokerScout.
CoinPoker is hailed as the best online poker site for real money play with lucrative features such as a 33% rakeback and 150% up to $2,000 sign-up bonus.
If casino games aren’t your thing, there is a full sportsbook and futures trading platform called CoinFutures.
There are famous names taking part in punditry for the CGWC including SeaLlama who commentated while playing alongside Australian poker pro Koray ‘KakiTee’ Turker.
