Real Money Poker on the iphone

#1 7th January 2009, 4:48 PM

Ok, I know that apple wouldn't allow an app for real money gambling, but does anybody know if its possible to play real money poker on a jailbroken iphone. Maybe on a site like Pitbull poker where there is no download?

If anybody knows anything about this, or about a company making an app to allow this, or thinks its a good idea, post it here and we can discuss. Thanks

I would assume pitbull would work as its a flash based poker room.
On a regular Iphone

Let me know. if you try it.

i will, but what about other rooms?

I did read somewhere on the net something about poker on an iphone.
but I have searched cydia and installer and cant find a damn thing.

I wonder if you have to manually add a repository to either installer or cydia in order to get the download ?

Ill keep looking around

I tried running pitbull, it didn't work. A little digging revealed that thats because the iphone still doesn't support flash. Adobe has announced that its coming so it should be out soon but as of now no. I also read that flash on mobile devices tends to be weak, so I hope it will be able to run it. I guess well see.

Oh, what a good idea ...
And what about on WindowsMobile ones ?
I wanted to try BWIN, but they seem not to propose that for the moment ...

Great question val, and as we all know it's only a matter of time.

On a side note, it is a very scary thought! Folks driving while playing poker!!! egads!

Maybe we can develop some sort of card by card hands free thingy. "You are on the button with AhKc and $25 in chips. Two callers so far... Make a left at Fulton st.""

I was thinking about freerolls, and I don't really have much money anywhere, but still a valid point. Also there is probably some way to strengthen the security, although I don't know very much about hacking, I could see it happening at the airport, or a large train station, but not on the subway or in your local starbucks. (but then again thats why suckers like me get their info stolen)
