blonde poker forum

Has anyone found a way to play poker on a mobile phone?   I have a Samsung Galaxy phone, and am thinking of getting either an iPad, or a Galaxy Tablet.  I want to be able to play on the iPoker network with William Hill.  When I tried to log in to WHill, it said that it was not able to work through the phone - I asked technical support for WHill, but they simply said the software would not work on a mobile because you need windows...  I asked if there was anything I could download to enable me to play, but they said no...

Does anyone have any ideas of how I might be able to get round this???

Any help would be much appreciated!!

 

Hello George. Welcome to the forum.

Great first post. You'll fit in well.

Can you make calls from your laptop george?

From the android Apps thread in The Lounge..


I think we need the new version of Android though?

Not that I know of....  But I am really not much good with all this "modern stuff"!!!!

Lol...

Ever heard of Skype mate

Hiya and welcome to blonde.  Everything to do with android phones can be found here:

http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=48053.0

was being sarcastic you abs plum

I know I can use Skype with my laptop - but I don't so far... Does that make a difference then?

Or am I being wound up here!!!???

Lol

I was aware of your sarcasm.

How come i never got this welcome? ;carlocitrone;

You sure were

Because people knew who Skgv was.

I love you Pete.

I sure wasn't,however I might've misread your point which I thought was phone's are for calling and laptops are for playing pokers.

love u 22222222, coming up tomorrow wt the family!

Rush poker is currently in beta testing for android 2.2 ...YouTube it....looks v fast...I used to play on aces royal...5 handed cash game...was incredibly soft...but that went busto...stars reputedly bought the software...but nothing has came of it...so far

Oh and forget about iPhone...Apple don't allow direct gambling...so there won't be any apps

Of course I play on my laptop - and of course spend some time and effort to qualify online for good supersatellites, to find out that they run on the only day of the week that the local casino has a live tourney worth playing!!! If I thought I could get away with taking my laptop into the casino to play the satellite at the same time - I would!!  But don't think the casino would be very helpful!!

My name is Lynne Beaumont, by the way - James Browning's partner...  And yes, thanks for the welcome!

 ;applause; ;yippee;  ;sark;

im sure mobile phone have to be switched off while you are in a hand!!

Welcome to blonde lynne...I've seen you on my television set..you must be famous....just like flushy

I was just trying and failing to wind Greekstein up Lynne,welcome to Blonde.We played together at the epic failure that was the gukpt summer series a couple of times,I spoke to you on break about 24 tabling grinding and I was the one defending Blonde's cliqueness over the Blatch situation :) still playing the live circuit much ?

As for your question I have a phone that belongs in Beamish so can't really help you there.

Ahhhhh, Lynne!  Hiya Chicka and welcome again to the madhouse.  Haven't seen you since my old days at the BFLT. 

The link posted earlier is where we've anything android related and Rush seems to be the only option atm, but it's not even official yet.  If and when other options come up, the Lads will more than likely add them to that thread.

Lol...  Famous for being a fish!!!

Hi there!  James and I have had a very quiet year...  We have been doing our house up, in Whitley Bay, ready to sell.  It took about 8 months, so we haven't been to any festivals this year.  James has been playing cash in Newcastle to keep us both fed and watered.  The house is under offer - which when it goes through (God willing), means we will be moving further south and will be playing the poker scene again next year.  Hope to go to Blackpool though next week, so may see you there?

Thanks for your help

Hi!  Thanks for your message - am playing the last Betfred Ladies on Saturday at the Western in London - are you going?  Then hope to get to some of GUKPT in Blackpool next week.  Are you going to the Western?  I must admit, they are not my favourite tourneys.  Think I'll give them a miss next year.  

Hope to see you again soon... ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader;

You can play on any site with an Iphone or Ipad providing you have a home computer.

Software called ITeleport (other software available too), connects to your desktop (Mac or PC), as it runs via your home computer your not accessing a gambling site etc so no problems with firewalls/filters etc, great for playing a table of cash or another tourney when your playing live esp if you get free wifi at your local casino :D

Wouldn't bother with the Iphone version tho will be too small IMHO to use properly (bet sizing would be nightmare). Ipad works great tho :)

Remember you saying how long the house had took,I'm terrible live so won't be at Blackpool but glglgl.

Don't be a spoilsport!  If I'm not talking on it, does that count??

Thanks for that Gary.  Am trying to get this sorted for Monday - coz want to play the Blackpool £200, and have qualified for a supersat online for the GUKPT Grand Final at about 9pm!

Of course if I get knocked out of the live event VERY early, it won't be a problem!

I thought the casinos might be a bit slow to catch on if I was usiing a phone, whereas to sit there with a laptop or iPad on my lap is a bit obvious...  And will obviously p... them off!

 :dontask:

Keep threatening to make the trip, but afraid I've swerved them this season and last.  Too many things on the calendar as it is and it gets costly flying over from Ireland all the time.  My trips are usually for either APAT or blonde events.  You've had a pretty good run at the Ladies events though, so well done! 

dunno if its true but i've heard you can play bwin from your mobile

Hi Lynne, nice to see you on blonde.

I'm sure I remember sitting at a table with James and watching him play poker on his phone.

Hi Tom

Thanks for your message...  Yes, James did play on Aces Royal.  They only had cash games, and went bust some time ago.  I really want to be able to play on the iPoker network via William Hill as that is where I get a good deal, but it seems to be unlikely that I am going to be able to play on my phone in the near future very easily, judging by the feedback from people on the forum.

Are you going to Blackpool?  How have you been doing this year?  See you soon.

 ;mexicanwave;

Its crap I've tried it on my I-pad. If your desperate to play then fine, but it doesn't make for a pleasurable experience really...........

Thanks for all your ideas and comments.  Have tried logmein and it works, but not the most user friendly - and you need a magnifying glass obviously!

As James's partner, I expect you keep one handy.  ;)
