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?

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

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

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.

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

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

and here's a close-up of my 'fish' trophy sitting on top of my computer
the trophy is generally excellent as an incentive for victories[emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Thanks :)

And the two paddles are for when I'm up 'sh1ts creek' while on a short stack. ;)
(it's an expression in English... not sure if it translates >>> "Up sh1ts creek without a paddle" )

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.

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

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 :confused:
So I have no choice but Computer :)

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.

notebook

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.

On my pc, nothing better to play poker.


+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.
