- The partner table is label + criteria only. Empty economics by design (no CPA / rakeback / bonus $).
- Study first via Poker Academy and practice literacy tools; SoftCta never appears inside felt / action / coach surfaces.
- Prediction-market odds stay on /markets — never on this silo.

FAQ — SoftCta compare
- Is this a poker room ranking or lobby?
- No. This SoftCta compare shell lists criteria only — geo eligibility, age, game types, and .COM vs US regulated real-money paths. Pursuit labels (Stars → GG/Natural8 → WPN) are SoftCta order only, not a ranking or playable lobby.
- Do you publish CPA, rakeback, or bonus dollars here?
- Never. Economics cells stay empty by design. ChanceWire does not invent CPA, revshare, rakeback, EPC, or bonus tables on public SoftCta surfaces.
- Is PokerStars .COM the same as US regulated poker?
- No. PokerStars .COM ≠ US regulated real-money poker. Read the US vs .COM SoftCta literacy page and fail closed when geo or age rules are unclear.
- Where does SoftCta appear in poker practice?
- SoftCta stays shell-only — never inside felt, action, coach, recap, hand-log, or share surfaces. Study via Poker Academy and literacy tools first.
- Are Polymarket odds on this page?
- No. Prediction-market odds stay on /markets (Polymarket Gamma only). Kalshi and Novig stay Not listed. Poker SoftCta never cross-wires Poly odds.
