PokerHigh is a legal Indian online poker room (license issued in Nagaland) founded in 2015. Its parent company is Quantum Skill Gaming & Tech Private Limited. At the end of 2018, PokerHigh merged with the room Hippo52, and since then, the room had had at least double the traffic. PokerHigh is one of the top poker rooms taking advantage of the current boom of online poker in India.

The room has a functional and friendly software with an RNG certification, the traffic is growing and the rewards program is aim to attract new players quickly.

Traffic overview

After PokerHigh and Hippo52 merger, the poker room is ranking among the TOP-10 sites in India in terms of traffic. At the moment, PokerHigh cannot be considered as the main poker room for a grinder, but we think the traffic will increase very fast. Both No Limit Hold'em and Omaha are played at the room:

No Limit Hold'em:

  • ₹25/₹50: 2 tables
  • ₹10/₹20: 2 tables

Omaha:

  • ₹50/₹100: 1 table
  • ₹25/₹50: 1 table
  • ₹10/₹20: 2 tables

The MTT grid at PokerHigh is composed of the Daily Doose ₹15000GTD tournaments with a ₹111 buy-in and played every day at 8:30 PM, which is usually attended by 50 users and almost all of them pay one or two rebuys, and even they could have small overlays sometimes. 

The Daily Highs tournaments have a GTD prize of ₹25,000 and a buy-in of ₹330. During the weekend (Saturday High and Sunday High) the GTD prize boasts to ₹50,000 and ₹1,50,000 respectively, changing the buy-in to ₹550 and ₹666.

Every Monday the ₹10,000GTD Thursday Depositors Freeroll tournament rake place for depositing ₹200 or more.

Sit&Go tab is available in the PokerHigh lobby but there is no action.

Software and trackers support

PokerHigh software is well-designed and is user-friendly to the users. It's designed in grey tones. In the lobby, there are tabs for each discipline (Hold'em, Omaha, Tournaments), and the tables can be sorted by stake or players. There are no filters, although due to the current traffic they are not needed.

PokerHigh is multi-tabling friendly, and all active tables can be easily arranged just by click on a button, and options to sit out next BB at all tables or auto-rebuy are presented. A 4-color deck is available and the table theme can be changed to make it more comfortable. Moreover, an internal hotkeys system is ready to use in the software, you can configure keys to Check, Bet, Fold, or going All-in.

Player statistics can be checked for the current session, and advanced options like Run-it-twice or Anonymous tables are also included.

Deposit and withdrawal methods

PokerHigh works with the most popular Indian e-wallets; deposits can be processed using MasterCard, Visa, paytm, freecharge, MobiKwik, OlaMoney, JioMoney, Oxigen, or Airtel. To request a withdrawal, it’s necessary to complete a simple KYC process (you’ll need electronic copies of your national ID and an address proof) a PAN Card is also required.

Please note that each withdrawal above INR 10,000 is subject to a flat tax take of 30% (Indian TDS).

Benefits

Today, PokerHigh is a great option for Indian poker players looking for a legal option to play online poker. After merging with Hippo52, the traffic ha been growing exponentially and new players are attracted thanks to the MTT grid which features GTD tournaments every day.
