The Good Beats (TGB) is an Australian ClubGG Union that connects multiple independent clubs into a shared poker ecosystem, giving players access to the same cash games, tournaments and promotions regardless of which participating club they join.
Unlike traditional poker rooms, the experience on ClubGG depends heavily on the union you choose. Traffic, game selection, player pool and promotions can vary significantly from one ecosystem to another, making it important to understand what each union actually offers before signing up.
Throughout this review, we’ll focus on the aspects that matter most when choosing a ClubGG Union, including traffic, game selection, rake, promotions, security and the overall player experience.
In this review, we’ll explain how The Good Beats (TGB) Union works, analyse its cash game traffic, available game formats, rake structure, promotions, security measures and supported countries.

🎯 What Is The Good Beats (TGB) Australian ClubGG Union?
The Good Beats (TGB) is an Australian ClubGG Union built around a shared liquidity model, where multiple independent clubs contribute players to the same cash games and tournaments. Rather than operating as isolated communities, participating clubs share a common poker ecosystem, helping to create a larger and more active player pool.
For players new to ClubGG, it’s important to understand the difference between a club and a union. Joining a club doesn’t automatically give you access to every game running on ClubGG. Instead, your experience depends on the union your club belongs to, as each ecosystem has its own traffic, promotions, tournaments and player pool.
At the time of writing, The Good Beats (TGB) Union offers a broad selection of games, including No-Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO4), PLO5 and PLO6, alongside daily tournaments, Bomb Pot tables and Bad Beat Jackpot games. This makes it one of the more complete ClubGG ecosystems for players who regularly switch between Hold’em and Omaha.
One aspect we particularly appreciate is that TGB appears to focus on building a long-term ecosystem rather than simply increasing traffic. The network places a strong emphasis on game integrity, recreational player retention and sustainable growth, while maintaining clear standards for clubs, agents and player behaviour.
🎮 Cash Games & Available Variants
The Good Beats (TGB) Union offers a well-rounded selection of cash games, catering to both No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha players.
At the time of writing, the lobby includes:
No-Limit Hold’em (NLH)
Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO4)
5-Card Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO5)
6-Card Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO6)
Alongside traditional cash games, players can also find:
Bomb Pot tables
Bad Beat Jackpot tables
Daily tournaments
One thing we immediately noticed is that Omaha isn’t simply an extra game sitting in the lobby. Multiple Omaha variants are available, making TGB an interesting option for players who don’t want to be limited to Hold’em only.
The lobby itself is easy to navigate, allowing players to switch quickly between game types and stakes without unnecessary menus or clutter.
👥 Traffic & Player Pool
Traffic is one of the biggest factors when choosing a ClubGG Union. A network can offer attractive promotions, but without consistent games running throughout the day, the overall experience quickly suffers.
During our first sessions inside The Good Beats (TGB) Union, we found action across multiple stakes in both No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha, with scheduled tournaments also running throughout the day.
Because TGB is an Australian ClubGG Union, activity naturally tends to increase during Australian peak hours. However, thanks to clubs and players from different regions, the lobby isn’t limited to a single time zone.
Rather than publishing a one-day snapshot, we’ll continue tracking the network over the coming months. As we gather more data, this section will be updated with our observations on peak hours, game availability, stake distribution and any noticeable changes in traffic.
💰 Rake Structure
Like most private ClubGG unions, The Good Beats (TGB) Union uses a percentage-based rake with different caps depending on the stakes being played.
The current cash game rake structure is shown below.
Stakes | Rake | Cap |
0.25 / 0.50 | 6% | 6 BB |
0.50 / 1.00 | 6% | 5 BB |
1.00 / 2.00 | 6% | 4 BB |
2.00 / 4.00 | 6% | 3.5 BB |
2.50 / 5.00 | 6% | 3.5 BB |
5.00 / 10.00 | 6% | 3.5 BB |
10.00 / 20.00 | 6% | 2.5 BB |
15.00 / 30.00 | 6% | 2 BB |
While the rake percentage remains the same across all limits, the cap decreases as the stakes increase, helping reduce the effective rake in larger games.
As always, we don’t recommend judging a poker ecosystem by rake alone. The overall value depends on several factors, including the quality of the games, available promotions, player pool and any private rakeback deals available through your club.
If you join The Good Beats (TGB) Union through Red Kangaroo Poker Club, we’ll also help you choose the most suitable games based on your volume, preferred format and playing style, ensuring you get the most out of the ecosystem.
🎁 Promotions & Features
Beyond cash games, The Good Beats (TGB) Union offers a range of features designed to keep the ecosystem active and rewarding for regular players.
Depending on the period, players can benefit from:
Daily tournaments
Bomb Pot cash games
Bad Beat Jackpot tables
Ongoing player promotions
Private rakeback deals through participating clubs
One aspect we appreciate is that TGB doesn’t appear to rely solely on rakeback to attract players. Instead, the ecosystem combines regular promotions with game formats that encourage recreational participation, helping to keep the tables active over the long term.
🛡️ Security & Fair Play
Game integrity is one of the areas where The Good Beats (TGB) Union appears to place significant emphasis.
The union states that it operates a dedicated internal security team responsible for monitoring suspicious activity across the network. Rather than publicly disclosing its detection methods, TGB follows a zero-tolerance approach towards behaviour that could compromise the integrity of the games.
According to the union’s rules, prohibited activities include:
Bots
Collusion
Multi-accounting
Real-Time Assistance (RTA)
Any other unfair advantage
Players found violating these rules may face immediate suspension, confiscation of winnings and rake, while clubs are also held responsible for serious breaches involving their players. The charter also states that severe offences can result in permanent bans or even the removal of an entire club from the union.
Although it’s impossible to independently verify how every security system operates, it’s encouraging to see that game integrity is treated as a core part of the ecosystem rather than simply being mentioned as a marketing feature.
