GGPL's official footer lists other rooms as “Spot” (Akiba Guild, KKLIVE POKER, Casino Live Tokyo, etc.). Those are outbound links, not the same brand.
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Product | Amusement poker (no cash prize payouts by the venue) |
| Free lesson | Beginner class ~20 minutes (official) |
| Ring floor | Lowest published chip package ¥2,000 ($200) |
| Tournament entry | Venue examples ¥3,000–¥15,000. JOPT satellite example: entry ¥5,000 |
| Re-entry / add-on | Nagoya daily example: re-entry ¥3,000, rebuy/add-on ¥2,000. Event-specific |
| Game | Mostly no-limit hold'em. Ring 1-2 / 2-5 mentioned on a third-party menu |

| Wager / sticky | No online-casino wager. This is not a cash jackpot product |
- KK Shibuya / KKLIVE POKER — another room, also mentioned as a JOPT satellite host.
- Nekocaji — another brand. Use their official pages.

The small print that actually bites
- Prizes are coins, passports, tickets and goods. The venue is not built as a cash payer.
- Copy that says “expected player-contract fulfilment” is sponsor-side language. Do not read it as a house-guaranteed prize pool.
- LINE coupons are store- and date-bound. The spring 2025 Shibuya ¥500 lottery is not automatically live today.
- Chip cash-out fees are tiered. Leaving with a short stack makes the session feel more expensive.
- No published list of excluded payment rails. Ask the cage about cards / PayPay.
- There is no sticky casino bonus. What you paid to enter that flight stays paid.

GGPL is a brick-and-mortar amusement room. Online hold'em is a different product. Read the destination terms yourself — we do not invent match percentages here.
