Chinese Yuan Online Poker
Chinese poker players have options to use Chinese Yuans at some online poker sites as a deposit currency. International poker sites catering to Chinese players accept online poker Chinese Yuan deposits for real money deposits on players' poker accounts. The Chinese Yuan was also known as the Yuan Renminbi and some sites list Renminbi (RMB) as the accepted currency rather than the updated CNY but still accept Chinese Yuan poker deposits. A small number of poker sites also allow Chinese Yuan poker transactions during play. Where Chinese Yuan poker deposits are allowed but Chinese Yuan poker bets are not, poker rooms automatically convert Chinese Yuan poker deposits to one of the poker transaction currencies.
Best Poker Sites Accepting Chinese Yuans
There are a limited number of poker rooms that currently reserve tables for Chinese Yuan poker. One major international online poker room specifically lists that players may use Chinese Yuan poker deposits for placing online poker bets without exchanging to another currency. Playing poker in Chinese Yuans is mostly done in ring games with designated tables for Chinese Yuan poker, rather than in tournament settings.
Converting Chinese Yuan Poker Deposits
It is more common for poker rooms to support Chinese Yuan poker deposits, while offering game play transactions in U.S. Dollars, Euros or British Pounds Sterling. Poker rooms list deposit currencies under Banking or Deposit Methods, indicating to players that the site accepts Chinese Yuan as a poker deposit currency. Chinese Yuan poker players may directly transfer funds from credit cards, e-wallets or online banking services into their player account in Chinese Yuans. Chinese Yuan poker deposits are converted to the poker site's game play currencies if Chinese Yuan poker transactions are not supported for games.
Check the Banking and Customer Service menu FAQs to find out if your top poker room supports Chinese Yuan poker deposits. Supporting Chinese Yuan poker deposits does not guarantee that Chinese Yuan will be used for poker game transactions, so the poker room may also list its transaction currencies. When poker rooms require currency exchanges, Chinese Yuan poker deposits are exchanged for transaction currencies. Poker rooms will either offer standard, current exchange rates for Chinese Yuan online poker players or may offer better in-house rates if the poker room hosts its own banking system.
