Many of us have been working from home for up to a year now and our social life has largely been restricted.
Hoping to catch some rays as we head towards summer, the weather has been inconsistent of late and summer could be a longer wait than most people have been hoping for.
For many of us, this means entertaining ourselves from home. One popular pastime for many over the past year, or even the past several years, has been poker.
It has never been easier to access and play poker online, whether that be from your mobile device, desktop PC or a games console. If you are looking to get into online poker, here are some ways you can do just that:
1. Governor of Poker 3
Available on Android and iOS as well as directly on their own Facebook page, Governor of Poker 3 is a fun game that can be played with friends as well as strangers from all over the world.
Each day you log in you’ll get free chips so there’s no reason forever going broke in the game, whilst you can also purchase chips and other features if you feel the need.
Whatever your game, Texas Holdem can be enjoyed in sit and go, tournaments and push or fold formats. There’s a map your avatar can travel around for different versions, find new people to play with, or purchase products.
2. Prominence Poker
Available for free on the PlayStation Store and Xbox, Prominence Poker is comfortably the best poker game on consoles.
This game pits you against players from around the world or the devious AI, whichever you prefer. You can also play with friends, with the most players around one table being six at a time.
Build your rep by competing in tournaments where you’ll also build your bankroll. This allows you to purchase products in play, such as clothes, table items, and gifts for your friends.
Prominence Poker is the most realistic poker game on games consoles and is the most fun too. Not just because it’s free but no matter what hour we log in we can find a full table to play, whether that’s a tournament or a sit and go – it remains popular after all the years it has been available.
3. World Series of Poker
The official mobile app of the World Series of Poker is among our favorite games. Free to download and play on Android and iOS devices.
Published by 2012 and developed by EA, tables hold up to eight different players at a time, there’s plenty of choices to be had. Whether you prefer No-Limit Hold’em or four-card PLO you can switch up your playing schedule however you like on this app.
