Poker with your friends on your mobile

 

Poker Up is at first glance one of the many free mobile applications that exist to play poker today, although it has a feature that makes it more than special, unique.

 

Thanks to Poker Up you can create your own private games with your friends, family and acquaintances to enjoy poker without the need to meet in the same place and without having to share a table with strangers.

 

Thanks to Poker Up you can play poker with your friends from anywhere and at any time, just by accessing the app from your mobile.

 

From now on, any group of friends can meet and agree to a game, even if they are all waiting at the airport, without having to carry the poker kit to all places and without the obligation to be in one place.

 

Features to keep in mind

 

Poker Up allows you to play poker both anonymously (so no registration is required) and to do so thanks to Facebook identification. All those who do not want their games or registration in the application to be published on the wall have no problem since it does not send anything if the user does not authorize it.

 

Players have the option of participating in private games (organized by one of the users and inviting friends who want to join) or participating in a table with random rivals, so it is not just an application to play with friends . In addition, it allows you to put into practice all the poker plays you need to win.

 

In spite of this, if someone wants to enjoy themselves against unknown rivals, Poker Up is probably not the right application since many of the poker apps offer better features for this option: better graphics, greater playability, more game options, etc.

 

Regarding registration and identification, it is necessary to know that although, as we have said, this is not mandatory, if it is accessed anonymously, it will not be possible to locate friends or create private tables, being able to participate only in "random" games with strangers.

 

Poker Friends is characterized by offering in private games the possibility of playing in a format similar to the old play-by-mail, in which players act when they wish, without the synchronization of online poker rooms that force them to play quickly.

 

In this way, the player, in case of an unforeseen event, can postpone their movement for as long as they need (as long as a limit has not been imposed) in the style of Triviados, the well-known question application that created a furor in Spain, although this it can also be a problem to be able to turn a game into endless.

 

Poker Up follows the Zynga Poker model, in which the player receives free chips, but with the option to buy more if necessary, something that is always a nuisance, especially in this case since the app is also full of ads "Recommending" players to buy chips.

 

Finally, we would like to highlight that Poker Up can offer problems in old mobiles and with few features since, although it theoretically works on almost all devices, it can have problems and unexpected closures in old and low-performance mobiles.

 

There are over 5 best free poker apps to play Texas Hold'Em with friends online.

 

You don't need real money or even real cards. Take a look at these best free poker apps to play Texas Hold'em Poker with friends online.

 

Poker is one of the most popular online games, both to play and to watch. Now you can play with friends remotely and even during a video call. One of the games even allows you to play poker without chips or cards.

 

Note: Play responsibly. In any online poker game, do not add your credit card or PayPal details. Casual players are advised not to spend real money on virtual currencies. And remember, poker games cannot help you win in real life.

 

1. LiPoker (Web): the fastest poker game with friends, no registration, no downloads

 

Do you want to play a quick game of poker with friends? LiPoker is the fastest way to start a game. Go to the website to create a new game and share the link with friends so they can join. Nobody needs to register or download anything to get started, it works on any desktop or mobile browser.

 

The app allows you to password protect games in case you want to make sure that random people cannot participate. The creator sets how much money can be bet per hand. Up to nine friends can play simultaneously and the game tracks your winnings and losses on the "leaderboard". There are easy keyboard shortcuts for your bets and a hand ranking in case you're new to the game.

 

LiPoker allows you to chat with friends in a small window, which also records all your movements. It also includes a video calling option, but the video calling didn't work in our test. You can change the theme colors, sit down to hold some hands, and generally play like you would with friends in real life.

 

2. Poker in Place (Web): video calls with poker games with friends

 

The fun of playing poker in person is judging the reactions. You can see the expressions and "stories" of your friends as much as they might try not to give anything away. Poker in Place brings the experience together by adding a video call to a game of poker.

 

You can play with up to four players at the same time. Each player's video is shown in a small circle where he is at the table. Audio and video are perfectly stable. Use keyboard or mouse shortcuts to play standard poker. As with LiPoker, anyone can use the application in their browser without registering or downloading anything. But you also have the option to sign in to save your progress and settings.

 

Poker in Place uses Twilio Video for video calls, so there is a problem. The free version lasts 20 minutes. If you want to continue the game later, you will have to pay (it is equal to the Twilio commission, the developer claims that they are passing on the cost). Otherwise, you could create a new game every 20 minutes.

 

3. EasyPoker (Android, iOS): play poker without chips or cards

 

It is such a common situation. You're ready to play a quick game of poker with friends, but there is no deck of cards or set of chips available. What are you doing? Just take out the phones and start EasyPoker as it is the same.

 

This app is one of the ways for a fast paced poker game with friends, whether you're bored in a bar, traveling by train, or whatever. However, you will need an active internet connection on both phones. Download the app and sign up, then create a room to invite friends.

 

Since they are all in the same room, they also want to "hide" their cards. So EasyPoker hides your hand at all times and you have to press and hold the screen to see them. It is a small but excellent user design that makes the game more fun and real.

 

Technically, you can play live on the internet with friends who are not near you, but since there is no chat, the other apps in this article are the best. The free version of Easy Poker also limits you to four players at a time and you will have to pay to unlock up to 12 players and other customization features.

 

4. PokerStars (YouTube): watch the best poker videos on the internet  

 

The World Series of Poker is the biggest poker tournament to watch on television, but unfortunately its YouTube channel has been down for a long time. So if you like watching poker tournaments and playing games on TV, there is no better YouTube channel than PokerStars to get your solution. In fact, if you've never seen such games before, you really should give it a go. It is much more fun than you think.

 

PokerStars hosts some of the best tournaments in the world and they are now available to watch online in well-modified packages. You can also watch all episodes of the Shark Cage and The Big Game poker series. The stars in the videos are Who's Who of poker, including Phil Ivey and Daniel Negreanu.

 

The YouTube channel also has a team of video editors who put together playlists and fun clips. The PokerStars Top 5, for example, has some amazing videos on the best nightmare hands, appearances by celebrities like Ronaldo, and other fun actions.

 

5. The best poker apps to play online (Android, iOS)  

 

If you want to play a game of Texas Hold'em Poker online with strangers, you have many options. Even if you don't know the game, you can quickly learn it and have fun without spending real money.

 

1. TOK: Find out how to play poker if you've never played before. TOK teaches the basics of poker with an accurate quiz format to ensure you are in control of the game. Without this, you will be eaten alive in online games. TOK also includes an AI mode to play against three opponents offline.

 

2. Governor of Poker / World Series of Poker / Zynga Poker : These are the three most important applications for playing online poker. There is very little to separate them, so pick the one you like best. All games have millions of players online, so you will easily find a table to quickly start a game. Each game gives you a virtual cash bonus every day to play, so you don't have to spend real money on in-app purchases. Be patient.

 

3. Appeak Poker: Appeak is also like the other three games, but relatively new and without a huge fan base. However, it is a much lighter game that does not consume battery or resources, making it great for older phones.

Download: Appeak Poker for Android iOS (free)

 

Please note that all online poker games have in-app purchases and are trying to make you pay to buy virtual coins. Better to disable in-app purchases on a device that an emotional mind could use.

 

General summary

 

Poker Friends is an application that leaves much to be desired in the general technical aspect, so the application is only really recommended to learn and know how to play poker with friends and acquaintances with the freedom to do so over the internet.

 

As I said, if you are looking for other objectives there are online poker rooms or free mobile applications where you can download the online poker game. They also offer much more playability and a greater range of options to the user.

 

Poker Up is a very good option to play private games and enjoy online poker with real money with friends, being a pioneer in an option that will surely be taken into account by online poker operators and other applications, the possibility of creating home games from the mobile.
