ClubGG Review: Best Clubs, Unions, App Features, and How to Join
ClubGG is the club-based poker app built on GGPoker technology. The app itself is polished, but the real experience depends entirely on which club and union you join. This guide covers the platform, the software features most review sites skip, and detailed breakdowns of BSB Massiv, TiNY Poker, and JackpotClub — three active ClubGG clubs available through the Deep panel.

What Is ClubGG?
ClubGG is a poker app developed by NSUS Limited, the parent company of GGPoker. It launched in 2021 and is available on iOS, Android, and Windows. Mac has no official native client, though the iOS version is available on the Mac App Store. Unlike traditional poker sites with a single public lobby, ClubGG uses a system of private clubs and unions. You join a club by entering a club ID inside the app, and if that club is part of a union, you share a lobby and player pool with every other club in that union.
The platform provides the software, the RNG, and the client. Everything else — the games, the community, the table settings, the support quality — is determined by the club and union you join. This is why two players on the same app can have completely different experiences. The app is the same. The club changes everything.
ClubGG holds an RNG certificate from BMM Testlabs and has partnerships with major poker brands including the World Series of Poker (WSOP) and the Asian Poker Tour (APT). Platinum subscribers can qualify for live event packages through the app's sweepstakes tournament system.
How ClubGG Clubs and Unions Actually Work
Most ClubGG review pages explain clubs and unions in one sentence. The mechanics deserve more than that, because understanding them is how you avoid joining the wrong club.
Clubs
A ClubGG club is a private community inside the app. It has its own club ID, its own player base, and its own management. You find a club by searching its ID in the clubs tab, then submitting a join request. Some clubs also require a referral ID, which routes your request to a specific contact.
Unions
A union is a network of clubs that share one lobby and one player pool. ClubGG allows up to 250 clubs per union. When you join any club inside a union, you see the exact same tables and tournaments as every other player in that union. The tables are managed by the union, not by your individual club.
This has a practical implication that most review sites do not explain: two clubs in the same union have identical game lobbies. The difference between them is service quality, support responsiveness, policies, and promotions — not the tables themselves. When choosing between clubs in the same union, you are choosing your service layer, not your game selection.
Why the club you choose matters more than the app
ClubGG provides the software. But your game quality, your table settings (bomb pots, VPIP requirements, double board, Squid Game), your community profile, and your support experience all come from the union and club, not from the app. A polished client does not fix a weak club.
ClubGG App Features That Most Reviews Skip
Most ClubGG reviews mention the app is “powered by GGPoker” and stop there. The client has specific tools and table formats that directly affect your playing experience. These are the features that actually matter.
Smart HUD
Built-in tracking that shows VPIP percentages, session run status, and detailed opponent statistics (continuation bet frequency, went-to-showdown rate, preflop raise %) directly at the table. Available with a ClubGG membership.
PokerCraft analytics
Full session history tracker with hand replay, win/loss graphing versus expected value, hole cards matrix showing net earnings by combination, and position-based performance breakdown.
Multi-tabling (up to 4 tables)
Play up to four tables simultaneously in portrait mode. The Windows desktop client provides the best multi-tabling experience, while mobile works well for one or two tables.
VPIP requirement tables
Clubs can set minimum VPIP thresholds per table. If your VPIP drops below the minimum after a set number of hands, you are removed from that table permanently. Designed to keep games active and discourage extremely tight play.
Squid Game rounds
Special action rounds where every player posts a bounty. The last player who has not won a hand during the round loses their deposit, which is split among the winners. Adds an action-forcing dynamic to cash tables.
Bomb pots and double board
Bomb pots force every player to post before a community flop with no preflop betting. Double board deals two separate boards simultaneously with a split pot. Both are available as table settings in many ClubGG unions.
Run it twice and insurance
When all-in, players can choose to run the remaining board cards twice or purchase insurance against bad beats. Both features are available at most ClubGG tables.
BMM Testlabs RNG certification
ClubGG holds an RNG certificate from BMM Testlabs, the same certification body used by GGPoker and other major regulated poker sites. This covers the random number generator across all game formats.
Supported Devices
- iOS — App Store download. Standard mobile experience, portrait mode only.
- Android — Google Play or direct APK download. Same portrait-mode client as iOS.
- Windows desktop — Native client from clubgg.net. Best experience for multi-tabling up to four tables.
- Mac — Not officially supported with a native desktop client. The iOS version of ClubGG is available on the Mac App Store and can be installed and played on Apple Silicon Macs (M1 and newer).
How to Join ClubGG Clubs from Zero
The actual challenge is not downloading the app. It is finding active, well-managed clubs, getting the right club IDs, and knowing what to expect from the lobby before you sit down. The Deep panel is designed to solve that workflow.
Download ClubGG and create your account
Install ClubGG from the App Store, Google Play, or the Windows client at clubgg.net. On Mac, install the iOS version from the Mac App Store. Register with an email address. This gives you access to the clubs tab where you can search for clubs by ID.
Register on Deep and complete account setup
Create your Deep account at deep.poker and finish the required setup steps. This is what unlocks the ClubGG panel where supported clubs, their descriptions, and current club IDs are listed.

How to Choose the Right ClubGG Club
Searching for best ClubGG clubs or best ClubGG unions does not produce one correct answer. The right club depends on what you actually need. Work through these criteria before you join.
Traffic volume
Do you want the most tables and longest playing windows, or a smaller, more predictable lobby?
Game format coverage
Do you need NLH, PLO4, PLO5, PLO6, Hi-Lo, and Short Deck — or is Hold'em plus one Omaha variant enough?
Stake range
BSB Massiv covers $0.10/$0.20 to $5/$10. TiNY Poker stays low-to-mid. JackpotClub uses a Toman-based chip system.
Table features
VPIP requirement tables, bomb pots, Squid Game, double board — some players love action-forcing formats, others prefer traditional tables.
Community and language
BSB Massiv draws US/Canada traffic. TiNY Poker centers on Taiwanese and Chinese players. JackpotClub serves an Iranian-focused community.
Tournament schedule
BSB Massiv runs daily MTTs from $1 to $250 with a weekly 100K guarantee series. The other clubs have lighter tournament offerings.
Privacy vs. scale
Large unions offer more games but more anonymity. Smaller clubs let you know your opponents across sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is ClubGG and who built it?
ClubGG is a club-based poker app developed by NSUS Limited, the parent company of GGPoker. It launched in 2021 and is available on iOS, Android, and Windows. Mac has no official native desktop client, though the iOS version is on the Mac App Store. Unlike traditional poker sites with one public lobby, ClubGG uses a system of private clubs and unions where each club has its own community, and unions share player pools across multiple clubs.
What is the difference between a ClubGG club and a ClubGG union?
A club is the specific community you join using a club ID. A union is a network of clubs that share one lobby and one player pool. ClubGG allows up to 250 clubs per union. When you join any club inside a union, you see the exact same tables and tournaments as every other player in that union. The club you join determines your support and service quality, while the union determines the game selection and traffic.
How do I join ClubGG clubs through Deep?
Download ClubGG and create an account. Then register on Deep and complete your account setup. Once setup is complete, the Deep panel shows supported ClubGG clubs with their club IDs, game details, and union information. Copy the club ID from Deep, search for it inside the ClubGG app, and submit your join request.
What is Smart HUD on ClubGG?
Smart HUD is a built-in tracking tool available to ClubGG members. It shows VPIP percentages for opponents at your table, their current session run status, and detailed statistics including continuation bet frequency, went-to-showdown rate, and preflop raise frequency. It does not reveal hole cards or affect game outcomes.
What are VPIP requirement tables on ClubGG?
Some ClubGG clubs set a minimum VPIP (voluntarily put money in pot) percentage on their tables. If your VPIP drops below the minimum after a set number of hands, you are removed from that table permanently. This is designed to discourage tight, passive play and keep tables active. Each table tracks VPIP independently, so being removed from one table does not affect your access to other tables.
What is Squid Game on ClubGG?
Squid Game is a special round format on ClubGG. When a squid round begins, every player at the table pays a bounty deposit. The last player who has not won a hand during the round loses their deposit, which is split among the winners. It adds an action-forcing element that keeps tables lively, especially at unions like BSB Massiv that use it on many of their tables.
Can I play on multiple tables at once on ClubGG?
Yes. ClubGG supports up to four tables simultaneously. Tables display in portrait mode only. This is a stronger multi-tabling experience than most club-based poker apps, partly because the client was built on GGPoker technology rather than as a standalone mobile-first app.
What is PokerCraft on ClubGG?
PokerCraft is ClubGG's built-in hand history and analytics tool. It tracks your entire session history, lets you replay and download hands, shows a win/loss graph comparing actual results to expected value, displays a hole cards matrix with net earnings by hand combination, and breaks down your performance by position.
Which ClubGG clubs should I compare first?
BSB Massiv, TiNY Poker, and JackpotClub are strong starting points because they serve different player profiles. BSB Massiv is the largest US-based ClubGG union with the broadest game mix and stakes from $0.10/$0.20 to $5/$10. TiNY Poker is an Asian-community club focused on Hold'em and PLO5 at low-to-mid stakes. JackpotClub is a smaller, more private Iranian-focused club centered on PLO5.
What devices does ClubGG support?
ClubGG is available on iOS (App Store), Android (Google Play and direct APK), and Windows desktop. Mac has no official native client, but the iOS version is on the Mac App Store. The Windows client offers the best multi-tabling experience, while mobile works well for single-table sessions.
Does ClubGG have an RNG certificate?
Yes. ClubGG holds an RNG certificate issued by BMM Testlabs, the same certification body used by major regulated poker sites. This covers the random number generator that determines card distribution across all ClubGG games.
What are bomb pots and double board tables on ClubGG?
Bomb pots are hands where every player at the table posts a predetermined amount before seeing a flop, with no preflop betting round. Double board means two separate boards are dealt simultaneously and the pot is split between the winner of each board. Both formats are available as table settings in many ClubGG unions and are designed to increase action and pot sizes.
ClubGG is an online subscription sweepstakes platform with social free to play club gaming and does not provide any real money services. ClubGG has no direct involvement in the operations of clubs or unions.
