Enjoy the Excitement of Poker Without the Risk

Why isn't SpadeClub considered gambling?

Gambling is risking money for a chance at winning a prize or something else of value. SpadeClub is not a gambling site -- you are never asked to place a bet or risk money on a poker tournament or any game. While you'll have loads of opportunities to win big money in high-paying tournaments, there is never a buy-in or deposit required. Exclusive Members pay a monthly membership fee to take part in our extensive list of services, community features, and convenient access to all of our tournaments. SpadeClub allows all entrants an equal opportunity to succeed in SpadeClub's tournaments and entry requirements are based on sweepstakes laws.

However, some States have sweepstakes laws that do not allow their residents to participate in sweepstakes such as SpadeClub. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to have residents from those States participate in many of our tournaments, and they are unable to become Exclusive Members. A list of those States may be viewed here: Excluded States. Nevertheless, even for residents of the excluded States, SpadeClub offers lots of free "play money" poker games, as well as other tournaments for which they are eligible!
