In TestFlight 2 to 9 players iPhone & iPad

LivingRoom Stakes

A poker table for your friends: tournaments with blinds that climb, or a cash game that runs all night. Play money only — there's nothing to buy and the chips are worth nothing outside the table.

TestFlight is Apple's own app for trying an app before it's released. Install it, open the link, and the game arrives like any other app.

What it's like

  • Your table, your rules

    Tournament, turbo or cash game; two to nine seats; blinds that climb on your schedule. Computers take the seats nobody claims, or leave them empty.

  • Play money, always

    No purchases, no chips for sale, no real-money play of any kind. When you're out in a cash game you buy back in for nothing.

  • Every pot settled properly

    Side pots, all-ins for less than the bet, split pots down to the odd chip — the maths is the real thing even when the money isn't.

  • Nobody waits forever

    An optional clock gives each decision 15, 30 or 60 seconds, and the dial only appears when someone has gone quiet. Two in a row and the computer acts for them until they're back.

A look at it

  • A poker hand at the river with a pot of $186, the board in the middle and a straight to the seven in your hand.
  • An online table being set up, with a room code, an invited friend and the choice of tournament, turbo or cash game.
