I mostly play on mobile as most of the games falls in the night according to my time zone. I find it difficult to sit in front of my computer at 1 am when my family is sleeping.

Neither.

I use a desktop, a mouse and a big screen.

I don't even like the new little touch-screen devices to use as a phone. Probably just getting old.

Hi! I choose laptop.
With mobile uncomfortable to play multiple tables and may have problems with communication. With a laptop, you can use poker software and it will increase the chances of success.

I love playing poker on my mobile. In the action 24/7. Especially on long drives when you're sitting shotgun.

big screens big monitors is the best, mobile you can only play one game and you loose the big picture of the game, I prefer computer over all.

To play a long period of time and optimal game, of course desktop or laptop are ideal. But to spend a short time playing and for fun we can use our phone or ipad without problem.

Laptop for home play.
Phone for when its dead at work and I want to squeeze in some sit and gos or a small tournament. Mobile lacks a lot of features a laptop provides. I don't use HUDs, I don't use Flopzilla or ICMizer or any of that nonsense. I have enough experience to not need that crap . Congrats to those who use it successfully but many of those programs i believe give unfair advantage, and/or can really box in your play to I have XX cards, board is XXX what is my EV + or - .

If you havent figured out your EV at X position, with X board by now maybe you need to find another game. You wont ever make it in a live poker tournament.

sorry went off the rails there.

Again to those that use those programs successfully that's awesome . They are great and if they had been around in 2003/2004 when i started playing online I prob would of used them too,

On pc

I find it easier to play on a pc with a large screen if you keep multiple tables open.

Usually the laptop is better for play, but on time i think the mobile have more conford and get better hands.
True or just Aliens? XD

Hardly playing myself on poker mobile, usually only not to miss some good freerolls or tournaments, if I'm travelling or cooking. Absolutelly prefer to play poker on PC, which is more reliable, comfortable to play and allows me to use HUD and make my notes quickly.

p.s. :D

I only use my phone for freerolls and play money to pass the time when I'm bored. For real money I use the laptop.

i have a PC connected to one of my televisionss in the living room and i mostly play poker on that. Sometimes i have the one next to it on but i barely watch it. i dont have anything connected to it except cable television but i do plan to connect my pc to that one too or my laptop so i can watch live poker events while i play. its nice to play like this as i can just sit back on the couch or laydown a bit and play in all comfort.

I also use my phone to play poker but this is more when i suddenly need to go do something or im hungry and i have to cook some food in the kitchen. This is when my phone comes in very handy and im not playin more than 2 tables, because it allows me to move around freely or visit family around the corner, or even just be outside chillin but still wanting to do some poker. sometimes the kids confiscate everything availble and im left with my phone, which sometimes also gets taken by one of the kids for useless reasons. in short, its a good source to switch too when u need to leave ur play area or cant be present every second.
