I was just curious. Does anyone play online poker with a bluetooth wireless game controller. If so is it easier on your hands? Also what controller do you recommend and what is your setup? Thanks.

Theres a program where you can change your mouse buttons to key commands... I use that to wirelessly control the game.

I've actually never heard of this before? Is this something people do?
Haha imagine playing poker on an xbox or PS4, that'd be pretty cool!

What do you use for a controller? Xbox?

No I use my mouse with reprogrammed buttons. I play xbox over ps4 but like mouse controls for poker because I use a HUD. Hopefully that makes sense.

Because my wrist hurts after awhile if I play too long with a mouse. I would think it would feel better using a game controller. That is why.

JoyToKey program is designed for remapping keys at your controller. I have a working version.
I'm using USB controllers simillar to Sony PS and PS2 controllers to operate my CNC machines. It's easy to assign a key or combination of keys for any button of the controller using Joytokey.
Example of what I've done is in this video.
You can buy many different controllers at ebay or ali...but i don't recommend previous versions of bluetooth if you're going to buy no-name chinese controller, it will have a delay, I've tried several. It's also better to buy a wired controller or wireless with a dok station, that has a built in charger... You will have to change batteries or charge accus often. Such controllers are like wireless mouse with built in microwave and fridge, they consume alot.

Dear friend, don't be afraid of pain. In the distant past, I was shot through the palm of my right hand. The doctors were sure that the brush will remain in the bent position. I ate, slept and lived with a tennis ball for a year and a half. I had a woman's stocking on my arm. This is to prevent the ball from falling out. Many made fun of me. Later it was my turn to laugh. The result is sad for doctors. The palm is fully recovered. A computer mouse is like a tennis ball. Do not throw the mouse in the trash and do not look for easy ways. I don't insist, I just shared my experience.

Unlike the last response, I'd consider changing your controller.
Don't disregard this pain as it leads to the carpal tunnel syndrome. Try to get a vertical mouse (I got one from China for less than $9, just get a rechargeable one because these AAA batteries die too fast imo).

I do not recommend the truth I played a while but it is not reliable for some connection errors, as an example I did fold and for the connection sometimes I did nothing or paid, I stopped using it when instead of retiring it was all in and I cost a good tournament
