What do I need to start enjoying mobile poker?
You only need three things in order to start enjoying mobile poker and the first of these is, of course, a mobile device. There are a huge choice of smartphones and tablets available but for the widest choice of providers and games, you should opt for an Android or an iOS (Apple) device as most of the top mobile poker companies support both these platforms.
Before you buy your device you need to consider how you are most likely to play poker via your mobile. If that is at home on a WiFi connection, or at work on a similar connection, then you could opt for a tablet without a 3G/4G connection. Alternatively, if you are likely to play on the go, such as travelling on the train, then you may find a smartphone or a tablet with a good 3G/4G connection alongside WiFi is a better choice.
Once you have your device and how you are going to connect to the Internet sorted, then all you need is a quality mobile poker provider. There’s plenty available, but we strongly advise you to start with a company with an excellent reputation, a wide choice of poker games and an outstanding poker app and for us, Bet365 Poker fits the bill perfectly.
Do I need to download an App to play mobile poker at Bet365?
The first thing you need to do to play mobile poker is get connected and if you have an Android or iOS device with Bet365 Poker, then the easiest way to play is to download the Bet365 Mobile Poker app. This is available in the App Store for Apple users, as well as being available to download from the Bet365 site for Android and iOS users.
Once the download has started, the software will automatically install on your device and you’ll be up and running and ready to play in no time. You can use your existing Bet365 log in details to access Bet365 Poker on your mobile, or if you don’t have one, you can sign up (don’t forget your fantastic Bet365 Poker new player bonus if you do).
If you have an Apple device (iPad or iPhone) then you can access the site without a download by visiting poker.bet365.com in your browser (Safari) window and you can log in and play on a mobile site rather than an app (although this isn’t as smooth to use as the app).
Once you are connected to the mobile app or site, you are then ready to start playing mobile poker with Bet365, and what a fantastic choice of games you have to select from.
What types of poker can I play via my mobile at Bet365 Mobile Poker?
Once you are logged in you have a fantastic choice of games to play on your mobile with Bet365. This includes all the games that you would be able to play via the traditional Bet365 Poker website. This includes all cash table games (including Premium Tables), all Sit & Go games (including Jackpot Sit & Gos, Premium Steps) as well as Multi Table Tournaments.
Of course, there are some forms of poker that seem to be better suited to being played on a mobile compared to others and the great news is that you can play these games with Bet365 Poker too.
First up, if you are a cash table player in the main, then do try your hand at Speed Poker. This is a variant of cash table play where you can play many more hands in a typical sitting compared to a usual cash table game. This means if you only have 15 minutes to play on your mobile, then you can still play a meaningful number of hands, rather than just a few on a traditional cash table.
Another fantastic game to try on your mobile is Twister Poker, this is a three-player game with short stacks which sees the winner take all the cash prize available. The twist in this game being that before each game begins, a prize wheel is spun to decide how much you are playing for. You can play for as little as double your money, or as much as 1,000 times your stake. Eliminate the other players at the table and you win the cash prize selected at the start of the game.
Ever since Bet365 announced a massive upgrade to their mobile poker app in 2015, the experience for the mobile poker player with the company has been vastly improved with access to a far wider range of games and the ability to participate in all the sites competitions and promotional offers direct from your mobile.
Are there any security concerns I need to worry about with Mobile Poker?
It is sensible practice to follow all the usual guidelines when it comes to Internet security with your mobile poker account as you would any other sensitive data you may have on your PC or on your mobile phone or tablet.
One thing to be aware of however is if you are using a shared or open network (such as you’d find in a coffee shop or restaurant) rather than a private WiFi network (which is password protected – such as your home Wifi). It is possible (albeit unlikely) that other people sharing the open network can harvest your data and as such, we would not recommend entering any sensitive data on an open network, nor making any form of financial transaction that involves you entering a pin number, a password or similar.
However, the other key connections (3G/4G and your home Wifi) are generally very secure and provided you have some anti-virus/malware software on your device (especially for Android machines) then you should be as secure to play via your mobile as you are your desktop PC.
Armed with this information, you can now log into your Bet365 account and start to enjoy some top quality mobile poker direct from your chosen device. So, what are you waiting for?
