Got it but haven"t had a real chance to try it out yet.

Frankly, it"s unlikely it will stay on my phone very long as I suspect its better aimed at the tablet market and anyway, I have Stars on my netbook which is always with me anyway.

Played a sng on the i pad, it works very well, need to be a bit careful with the slider, although the option is there to type bet in.

Will have its uses ie if in a tournament and need to make dinner/tea can take i pad to kitchen,  i use a desktop pc so wasnt practical lumbering that from room to room.

Still doesnt help when you push with AQ and big blind has AK, but thats a different story.

I dont think it will play to well on the phone, bit too small, but on the i pad well impressed.

Late regged for the $5 Bigger this afternoon, just to quickly see what the app was like.  Went from 3k to 15k in about 5 hands.  Made a few phonecalls, went to another clients, eventually made a min cash having only played about a dozen hands.

Amazing the amount of functionality that they have managed to fit into this.  Covers most cash, STT and MTT games.  Really simple to use, and I would imagine on an iPad or Android tablet, it will look incredible.

gg the rest of the industry, that is how to do a poker app.   ;D

Was there a time when posts about non partner online poker rooms would be deleted or am I mistaken about that?











Spidey senses alert? Please let it be Pokerstars

.....we"re not going to leave posts up that encourage members to sign up to competing sites..... 

General posts talking about general activity on competing sites remain fine.
