GGPoker’s top-tier skin Natural8 will launch a dedicated online poker client for Indian players, PRO can exclusively reveal.
The new Natural8 India room will use the Indian Rupee (INR) as its main currency, with all games and transactions done solely in INR.
Despite all games being denominated in the local currency, the player pool will remain connected to the global “dot-com” player pool, meaning players will still have access to the global cash game and tournament pool.
The details of the dedicated Indian client were conveyed through an email sent to customers on Friday, March 24, informing them that all players based in India will be migrated “to a separate, dedicated platform called Natural8 India” on March 31.
