BEHIND THE HAND

A little knowledge. A better decision.

Am I playing against real people?

A useful starting point is the following overview. The built-in tables use computer opponents. Play Hold’em has five opponents, Heads-Up has one and 9-Max has eight. All chips in these tables are virtual; a separate Play Live Poker link opens the destination selected by the site operator. The surrounding sections explain the related topics in more detail.

Do I need an account or a deposit?

A useful starting point is the following overview. The built-in practice game does not require registration, a payment or a deposit. It runs in your browser with JavaScript enabled. Virtual chips have no cash value and cannot be purchased, transferred or withdrawn through the practice table. A careful reading can help you distinguish the different situations.

Can the computer see my cards?

The following details clarify how the works. The decision routine receives only the acting computer player's own cards and public game information. It does not receive your hole cards or the remaining deck. Because this is a local practice game, the browser still holds the full game state needed to deal and restore a hand. Read this alongside the related information on this site.

Why is a raise unavailable?

The following details clarify how the works. You may lack enough chips for a larger wager, or a short all-in may not have reopened your right to raise after you already acted. Betting also stops when no opponent can contest additional chips. The action controls follow the current betting sequence and remaining stacks. Revisit the relevant section if a detail is unclear.

Why did the pot split?

Consider these points when using this feature. Players with exactly equal best five-card hands tie for the pot they are eligible to win. Unused sixth or seventh cards do not break that tie, and suits have equal rank. Side pots can also be won by different players when contributions differ. If a question remains, the FAQ form provides a way to contact the operator.

Why does Heads-Up act in a different order?

Consider these points when using the feature. At a two-player table, the button is the small blind and acts first before the flop. The big blind acts first after the flop. This special order lets the button have the last decision on later streets while still posting the small blind. Use this explanation as a reference during your next visit.

Will my table be saved?

This section explains what to expect. With saving enabled and browser storage available, the current table is saved locally by game mode. The site does not synchronize it to an account or another device. Clearing site storage, using private browsing or changing the game configuration can prevent that position from being restored. The surrounding sections explain the related topics in more detail.

What happens if I run out of chips?

A useful starting point is the following overview. After the hand ends, the free-chip control can restore your practice stack. A new table can also begin with fresh stacks after confirmation. These controls support virtual-chip practice and do not create a monetary balance or a prize entitlement. You can return to this explanation whenever you need a reminder.

Can I play on a phone?

A useful starting point is the following overview. The table adapts to small screens by grouping opponents above the board and keeping your cards and controls below it. The menu button opens navigation on narrow displays. A modern browser with JavaScript is required for gameplay and local statistics. The same principles apply each time you use this part of the site.

How can I report a problem?
