PokerOK CEO Ivan Bryksin Declares War on Poker Staking Groups


A meeting between PokerOK leadership and representatives of poker staking groups took place on Monday evening. Gleb Tremzin and Artem Vejenkov represented the staking groups at the meeting.

Ivan Bryksin, CEO of PokerOK, engaged with the public for 13 hours, posting 100 messages. He outlined key requirements for staking group leaders, including ceasing all activities on PokerOK and GGPoker. Bryksin mentioned that the network GG has always advocated for the interests of amateur players.

Bryksin stated that the main issue with staking groups is that they win too much. FiatLab was informed that their play on the GG network is closed, while FunFarm was advised to prepare. FiatLab accused Bryksin of misrepresenting the situation to the network's leadership. Bryksin confirmed his goal is to transform poker into a casino-like experience.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
