With a name that boasts speed and plenty of action, how does Nitrogen Sports compare against all other Bitcoin poker rooms?
Well, our first impressions of the site were pretty good. The layout was clean, sleek and easy to navigate. While we only focused on the poker aspect of the site, Nitrogen Sports do offer an online casino and sportsbook which makes the poker games super juicy.
Why? Because bettors and gamblers who get bored will jump on the tables, ‘easy game’ as the pros say

Cash Game
During the day there aren’t too many cash games running. Nitrogen Sports offers stakes as low as .01/.2mBTC all the way up to the nosebleeds at 500/1,000mBTC, but tables at the higher limits are few and far between. The majority of games were played at 1/2mBTC or lower, with full-ring tables being the format of choice.
Nitrogen Sports has several PLO tables but only really run doing peak hours

Rake is what lets Nitrogen Sports down for cash games. While still being lower than the industry standard it was on the higher side compared to SealsWithClubs and Betcoin Poker. Depending on the stakes and players sitting at the table, the house rake is anywhere between 1-4%. However, to combat the higher rake Nitrogen Sports does have a solid rake back program where you can claim a juicy part of that back
Support
Nitrogen Sports have a number of ways to contact support with the most common option being live-chat and the ticket support system. The Bitcoin poker site also has an active Twitter account, a Reddit page and Facebook group where you can contact them if you don’t want to hand over your email address.
The only negative thing we could say about Nitrogen Sports Poker was the lack of players on the site. If you are someone who enjoys multi-tabling you may find that difficult outside of peak hours. However, the lack of player is made up for by the amount of fish who sit down and have a punt. Thanks for the online casino and sportsbook the poker games are super fishy.
Deposit
As with all Bitcoin style poker rooms, Nitrogen Sports’ deposit method is super easy. They don’t ask you for any personal information and providing an email is optional. Deposits are made instantly using 2-tier authentication. When we tried to withdraw we received our funds within the hour.
