About Salty Poker Network
Revolutionizing online poker for Texas players with transparent, fair, and innovative technology.
Our Story
Salty Poker Network (SPN) was founded with a simple mission: to build the best online poker experience for Texas players. We recognized that traditional rake-based poker platforms create inefficiencies that punish winning players and distort game dynamics.
As experienced poker players and software engineers, we set out to build a platform that is completely transparent and fair. SPN is a real-money online poker network that uses innovative tick-fee pricing and provably fair technology to create the most player-friendly poker environment available.
We're currently in active development and working toward launching our first playable demo. Our goal is to deliver a platform that Texas poker players and private clubs can trust — built on integrity, transparency, and a genuine love of the game.

The Tick-Fee Advantage
Traditional poker platforms use rake—a percentage of each pot taken as a fee. This creates several problems for players:
| Rake Model | SPN Tick-Fee | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost Transparency | Unclear costs that vary by pot size | Fixed per-minute cost |
| Large Pot Penalty | Higher percentage on big pots | No pot-based penalties |
| Game Flow | Incentivizes small pots to avoid rake | Natural, unrestricted play |
| Fair to Winners | Winners pay proportionally more | Equal cost regardless of results |
| Predictable Costs | Costs impossible to calculate in advance | Exact hourly cost known |
The tick-fee model empowers players to make better decisions. You're not playing against the house percentages—you're playing poker on your own terms.
