Play Poker with Smartphone or Computer?

Computer in the tranquility of my home

There are many advantages. For exmaple, on the computer is possible to play more tables, pick up informations, screen is larger, more stable connection, besides being more comfortable.

One table: Computer, but is OK to play in the Smartphone.
Multi-Table: Obviously Computer.

I have not yet seen a convenient interface for a smartphone to play more than one table / tournament at a time. All such options are extremely uncomfortable. So my choice is PC, if you need mobility, take a good laptop.

pokerstars and 888 have 'autoswitch' as a setting in tables which means your phone will immediately switch to the table demanding action after you take it on another.

 

[Rational Madman]

Do not complain, smartphone is cheaper and you can MT

Set 'autoswitch' (which is default in most games) for cash game tables. It switches you automatically to the table demanding your action. You can 100% multitable with a smartphone, don't complain that you can't afford a computer.

In this thread I see whiny people, whining is the trait of the fish.

I play on computer but also some times i use smartphone with app. I play only in PokerStars and I can tell you that mobile app I worst than pc app.

It is not worse at all, your fingers are just not nimble enough. Train.

PC, With Two Monitors, One For Poker, Second For Films Or YouTube.

Fish talk. Focus only on the poker and watch your income increase,

I always play on my desktop so I can play multiple tables. Sometimes I wish I had started a tournament on my phone instead though because I will have to leave and then I am stuck hoping I don't get booted while sitting out lol

Thanks, but I meant - it's a convenient interface, not the ability to play several tables. Of course, if you play only for fun and you do not care about the result ... Convenient - when all the tables are visible at the same time and you can follow the game of opponents, who is playing. This is all the more important, because on the smartphone we do not have HUD.

When I play on mobiles, I can't get focus on poker.
Some times I see TV while play or stay eating, it's easy getting disturbed by anything.
When I play on my notebook, 100% focus, better for my bank account

 

[vitalii029]

I play with mobile and from PC when have both but I prefer play with computer

 

[Emi]

I love to play with my computer, It make me feel i'm playing serious.

 

[veritasi]

PC much more better, mobile programs are awfull

 

[CryptoBlood]

I play on the computer but I will buy iphone 7 and then I will start to play also on mobile phone because good promotions I get than.

When traveling and i want to pass time, i usually play using my smartphone.

If im aiming for profit. nothing beats a PC. Running a HUD and playing multiple tables is the way to go.

Of course, you can play it where you want. But not sure, what,s the point to play poker on smartphone. Small screen, also if you will play serious cash game - you can have troubles with lags, so this is not the best way to play poker, as it seems for me. Only notebook or PC is my choice.

 

[pokgirl]

I do not have time to play on the phone. I play more time at the computer.
my computer is a good internet.

 

[SPANKYSN]

I usually use my PC so I can, not only multi table, but multi poker sites. I do not use my phone, but I occasionally use my ipad to play Pokerstars only when my wife wants the computer. I find that there is a big difference in what I can access on the Pokerstars site with my PC vs. my tablet.

 

[Mini1380]

I prefer playing on my mobile as it's nice simple and I can take it anywhere if it turns out to be a long game

 

[AndrewK1988]

Smartphone Apps are getting much better. But if you're grinding, you need a computer set up.

 

[Thenightrain]

Depends, phone if I need to move around, laptop for a session.

 

[Arcana]

On my Phone, battery does not hold long with the PokerStars App, So i prefere to play with my Laptop

 

[Davydave]

I have yet to see a really good interface for a smartphone...
