F5 Poker. Everything Poker. Always Refreshing.

EvenBet Gaming has added two configurable cash-game mechanics to its online poker software: Straddle from any position and No-Look All-In. The company said both features are available to existing and new operator partners, and both can be switched on or off independently for individual tables through its back-office tools.

No-Look All-In lets a player go all-in before seeing their hole cards. Straddle from any position lets the first eligible player post the opening straddle, which the company said gives players greater control over how hands develop.

The update is aimed at making cash-game sessions feel less routine. EvenBet Gaming CTO Alexander Tamplon said the industry is in “a fierce race for user attention” and that if a table feels slow or predictable, players “simply switch apps.”

Tamplon said adding the two mechanics gives partners a tool to eliminate table routine, keep players deeply engaged, and ultimately drive higher revenues. Focus Gaming News framed the rollout in similar terms, saying the features are meant to add more variety, more high-intensity moments, and more opportunities for higher-value gameplay.

EvenBet said the double update is intended to strengthen player engagement, player lifetime value, and overall rake. That lines up with the company’s own rake explainer, which describes rake as a service fee that helps cover operating costs and as a lever for extending player lifetime value, keeping sessions running longer, and maintaining table liquidity.

EuropeanGaming.eu said the launch comes as cash games remain the largest segment of the online poker market by revenue and operators face pressure to differentiate their products. It also said the release extends EvenBet’s recent run of product updates, including the Spins Poker format and a five-year B2B supplier licence from Sweden’s Spelinspektionen.
