Poker?

Hey there BGA Friends!

I have searched high and low for an online poker game that allows friendly games just for rankings - no money! Never been able to find anything - with all the classic card games appearing on BGA recently I thought perhaps it could work here? Would this be allowed or would connections to gambling make it distasteful? Just looking for a place to play poker with friend for fun and have never been able to find something. Any suggestions also appreciated - thanks!!

Dave

I haven't played for a few years, but PokerStars used to have a play money option. If you amassed a ton of play money, you could even cash it in for real money to be used in the app. Worth seeing if they still have that option...

Thanks for the response! I did check that out - they still require you to set up an account and you can't host your own private table unfortunately however it might be something to try - much appreciated!

Hoping that someday someone builds one here on BGA :)

You can't host a private "cash" game, but you can host a private tournament.
