What device do you play poker with?

#1 July 10th, 2020, 9:12 AM

Today I bought an Acer laptop and tried to play poker on it, honestly I was not comfortable playing without a mouse.I usually play from my phone or pc.I think i need to buy a mouse, then maybe it will be convenient.On which device do you most like to play?

#2 July 10th, 2020, 4:16 PM

Definitely tablet ...

#3 July 10th, 2020, 4:20 PM

I play on a phone or laptop, I play on a laptop without a mouse, but I don't have a problem with it.

#4 July 10th, 2020, 5:11 PM

Laptop (Asus - my old fantastic laptop, just for poker)

#5 July 10th, 2020, 5:36 PM

On my pc, nothing better to play poker.

#6 July 10th, 2020, 5:44 PM

I use my phone to play but am hoping to start back on my laptop. I make so many mistakes on my phone.

#7 July 10th, 2020, 6:09 PM

unfortunately laptop. I would prefer normal PC

#8 July 10th, 2020, 6:13 PM

i only play on my laptop.

#9 July 10th, 2020, 6:58 PM

I play from a desktop computer. I think this is the most convenient way to play poker. It is possible from a laptop only with a mouse.

#10 July 10th, 2020, 7:52 PM

I play from the notebook, a samsung note 10.1 tablet and a cell phone, and comparing the three devices it is much more comfortable and I practice playing from the notebook, since the connection to the wifi remains more stable and the game is much more fluid. and I feel it was more uncomfortable to play with the cell phone, because in my case it heats up very quickly and willingly and the battery ends up draining very quickly

#11 July 10th, 2020, 10:18 PM

only a personal computer and a large monitor
rarely phone or tablet

Definitely get a mouse to use with your laptop! It'll make it much better.

I often use a 17" Acer laptop with an additional 24" monitor.

My current setup is a desktop computer that I built, (i5 120gb SSD + 250gb Samsung Pro SSD, Western Digital Black 500gb HD, 8GB GSkillz RAM)
with 2x 24in. monitors.on a special stand
(but also have a 19in. that I use vertically for displaying pokersite lobbys.)

a wired & a wireless numeric keypads
a wired & a wireless mouse

and always hard-wired to the internet

Thanks

And the two paddles are for when I'm up 'sh1ts creek' while on a short stack. What device do you play poker with?

(it's an expression in English... not sure if it translates >>> "Up sh1ts creek without a paddle" )

I understand what you mean

#18 July 11th, 2020, 12:52 AM

I play on my laptop. I tried several times to play on my cell phone but I can't stay focused and I end up playing worse. It may just be a matter of adaptation, but I don't feel comfortable playing on my cell phone.

#19 July 11th, 2020, 4:30 PM

Usually a laptop unless I need to move around, then my phone but sometimes there are limitations on the phone like on 888 poker, only one game at a time

Guess that is why i rarely use laptop cause i prefer moving around to sitting at the desk while playing ?!?

#21 July 11th, 2020, 10:35 PM

I play at multiple tables, in multiple rooms, and I love watching or listening to something next to it.
Laptop is too small, phone up to 4 tables can be played if you do not freeze the application every 5 minutes What device do you play poker with?

So I have no choice but Computer What device do you play poker with?

#22 July 13th, 2020, 7:18 PM

I play on my hp laptop. I�d probably have the opposite problem trying to use a mouse. Recently started on one of the mobile apps and I must say it�s a little weird playing on my phone lol.

#23 July 14th, 2020, 3:03 PM

Good morning everyone.
I play poker on many websites using a notebook and sometimes call 888poker on my cell phone, as the website allows you to play without having to download, they call it instant play.
When I'm playing on my cell phone, I play much more concentrated, I don't know how to explain or why it happens, but I have better results.

#24 July 14th, 2020, 5:34 PM

Hp laptop

+1 Less chance I misclick a donk bet or all-in shove preflop if I have a computer mouse and not trying to click small buttons on a small screen.

Well, the only thing better than a pc would be a live game with physical chips and cards. I don't think this was an option for the op in this thread though, so I'll give my "+1" to PC.

#26 July 16th, 2020, 2:28 AM

Always on my Macbook. 💻

#27 July 16th, 2020, 2:30 AM

I play on my laptop and on my phone.

#28 July 16th, 2020, 3:54 AM

PC (Toshiba)
I don�t use mobiles to play poker. Because they makes me tired.

#29 July 16th, 2020, 12:18 PM

Sometimes on pc but mainly on tablet like that I can do other things at the same time

#30 July 17th, 2020, 2:45 PM

I play on the laptop and on the phone. Tbh I dont see many disadvantages in any of them, maybe only that you cant play more than 4 tables by phone

#31 July 17th, 2020, 2:51 PM

I only play on the computer. I don't play multiple tables. I am a newbie making mistakes on two tables. What device do you play poker with?

#32 July 17th, 2020, 5:27 PM

only laptop ASUS

#33 July 17th, 2020, 5:32 PM

I play poker on my Asus notebook

#34 July 17th, 2020, 6:03 PM

I play on my pc. I can't imagine playing on a phone.. especially multiple games.

#35 July 18th, 2020, 11:15 AM

PC + mouse is a must.
Mouse gives you correct bets, clicks and everything) + time to think.
It makes you relax)
Congs with the new laptop!)

#36 July 20th, 2020, 3:16 PM

I play on an old computer, I have problems with utilities, and I can�t buy a new one, maybe someone has an unnecessary one on which you can install [email protected]

#37 July 20th, 2020, 4:41 PM

Yes the laptop needs a separate mouse because otherwise the reaction time between actions is much slower.
If I play on one table, the phone is good too, but I need a PC for more tables because I like to see what happens on the other tables as well.

#38 July 20th, 2020, 9:44 PM

I play for my laptop, and it is very convenient. I have played from the smartphone, but the screen is very small and it is tedious!

#39 July 21st, 2020, 4:01 AM

I play on my PC. My game play has improved tremendously with the move to PC from phone.. No more misclicks and I can play two or three tourneys better than one. At four my ROI starts to go down.

#40 July 21st, 2020, 3:02 PM

Laptop with a big monitor only.
Because it�s easy to see the play.

#41 July 21st, 2020, 10:52 PM

50-50 split of desktop and phone. Will swap to 100% laptop when I get one for uni though

#42 July 22nd, 2020, 11:28 PM

alot of sites dont have mobile apps but betonline does, it works on phones and tablets

#43 July 22nd, 2020, 11:30 PM

I use my laptop with a mouse for sure. I like the larger screen and the comfort of sitting anywhere with it.

#44 July 22nd, 2020, 11:36 PM

I prefere my iphone... i can play with him where i want!!!

#45 July 22nd, 2020, 11:51 PM

I mostly play on my laptop, I do however use a wireless mouse. When I played more tables I would hook it up to my 42" TV. I just watch movies or whatever on my TV now and just use my laptop.

#46 July 22nd, 2020, 11:55 PM

When I first started my job now, my first day the boss was showing me which windows to use for which program etc....
I am used to using a mouse, and off the top of my head I forgot how to copy and paste. She was worried about me really knowing how to work on computers then. lol
I told her not to worry I was working on them before Windows 95. I also told her I remember when they came out with the mouse, best invention ever. lol I asked her why would she not use one if the tech was there. lol

#47 July 23rd, 2020, 12:26 AM

Lap top. Love to lay back on love seat with legs up and relax with poker and my laptop.

#48 July 23rd, 2020, 2:01 PM

I play on PC, i'm used to the mouse, but sometimes I play on smartphone too

Urgh! Playing on a laptop without a proper mouse is worse than playing on a phone.

I use a laptop due to space constraints at home, but in an ideal world I would use a desktop with two screens.

Options in order of quality:
Desktop with 2 screens
Desktop with 1 screen
Laptop with external mouse
*Tablet
*Phone
*Laptop without external mouse.

*With these options you have no chance to multi-table effectively. Plus with phones, its almost impossible to do custom bets.

Get yourself a mouse ASAP. It will make a huge difference.

400 forum posts!!
