Nitrobetting (Nitrogen Sports) Review

Nitrobetting Poker (formerly Nitrogen Sports Poker) is a cryptocurrency poker room that launched in 2014. It is part of the eponymous brand of the largest Bitcoin casino in the United States.

The Nitrogen Group's headquarters are in San Jose (Costa Rica). The site's rules indicate that any claims are regulated by country laws, but it is unknown whether the poker room has a gaming license.

In 2022, Nitrobetting Poker rebranded and launched a new website. All games are completely anonymous, and the currency of the tables is mBTC.

Nitrobetting's core business is a casino and a bookmaker, and poker has become just an extra product that cannot boast much traffic but attracts many amateur gamers to its tables.

NitrogenSports rake and rakeback

Nitrobetting Poker works on the No Flop – No Drop principle when collecting commission. The rake is 4% and works for all cash tables with the following caps:

Loyalty program

The Nitrobetting Poker VIP program consists of five levels. A month is given to achieve each of them. 

  • 1-4.99 mBTC rake – 10% rakeback.
  • 5-24.99 mBTC– 15%
  • 25-49.99 mBTC– 20%
  • 50-124.99 mBTC – 25%
  • 125-499.99 mBTC – 30%
  • From 500 mBTC – 35% 

Rakeback is automatically credited to the account during the next month's first three days.

Games and traffic

All the games are played on mBTC (1000 mBTC = 1BTC). At peak times in the USA (late night and early morning in Europe), you can find a dozen incomplete tables of all formats (6-max, 9-max, HU) in its lobby.

Due to the volatility of the Bitcoin exchange rate, the USD-equivalent stakes in Nitrogen Sports in US dollars is constantly changing. For example, in late March 2024, the minimum stakes of 0.005/0.001 mBTC were approximately equal to NL3.5/7$.

The tournament grid consists of only three-night MTT Weekday Showdowns (starting from 15:00 to 21:00 ET time), with buy-ins of 0.11, 0.33, and 0.55 mBTC and, accordingly, guarantees of 1, 3, and 5 mBTC.

The largest event—Weekday Showdown, 12mBTC GTD for 1.32 mBTC, takes place twice a week. It starts at 19:00 ET time on Saturday and Sunday nights.

NitrogenSports software

Nitrobetting Poker Client

The poker room does not have a downloadable version of the client. Access to the games is via the web browser. To do this, the player must log in to the site and select the poker section.

Software from the Swedish company Cubeia uses the Mersenne Twister RNG and the Fisher-Yates algorithm to shuffle the deck, but no external certificates guarantee the safety of the games.

The lobby is darkly decorated. You can turn on a 4-color deck at the tables and change the table theme. To multi-table and open each table in a separate window, you must activate the "Poker Pro Table Mode" button, which is located at the top of the client window.

There is no support for trackers in Nitrobetting Poker. The only way to collect information about rivals is to create notes and use color tags.

Reliability and trustworthiness

  • Year of foundation: 2014.
  • License: no
  • RNG certificate: no.
  • Identity verification (KYC): no

Nitrogen Sports is relatively reliable compared to other cryptocurrencies sites that appeared and left the market before they had worked for a year. However, the room does not have a gaming license or certificates, so players have virtually no legal guarantees.

Poker players who ride in Nitrogen Sports should follow basic safety rules and not store more funds in the cashier than necessary for one session.

Banking options

The following coins are available at the Nitrobetting Poker (Nitrogen Sports Poker) cashier:

  • BTC
  • LTC
  • ETH
  • BCH
  • USDT (BEP-20)
  • USDC (BEP-20)
  • BNB (BEP-20)

You can only cash out with Bitcoin or Litecoin.

The minimum transaction is 5 mBTC. Payments are usually processed within a few hours.

Cashouts are enabled only after making any deposit. To request a withdrawal, the player must enable 2FA authentication. Upon receiving a withdrawal request and its approval, the player receives an email.

When depositing in any currency other than BTC, the money is automatically converted to Bitcoin on the player's account at the current exchange rate.

Customer Service

If you have any questions about the operation of the poker room, you should first refer to the Help Center materials or NitroBot chats on the bottom right page of the Nitrobetting Poker website.

You can contact the support directly via email at [email protected].
