What is the deal with the prop offers?
In an effort to fill up more tables and entice you to a higher level, Crypto will offer you the chance to start a new table (or be the second one to join). It is usually offered at a higher limit than the table you are playing or waiting for. You get paid by the hour for as long as the table is short. When it fills up or if you sit out, a pop-up will advise you that the prop payment is now over. You don’t get paid if there is no one else at the table. They don’t discount the rake heads-up, so you need to be a pretty good bit better than the other guy to make up for that if it stays two handed. On the plus side, many of the players who take these offers aren’t very good at playing short-handed. I’ve also seen some people take the full amount of time to make each decision, which slows the game down to about 10 hands per hour and means the prop play might make you a little bit. If you do it, it is the best deal on the GBP sites, since the min payment is 2 instead of $2. 18.
