Mobile Poker by Ongame: Part One
Introduction
For poker enthusiasts, the Ongame network is a familiar name. It's one of the largest poker networks, especially before the U.S. regulations reshaped the online poker landscape. Acquired by BWin, Ongame owns notable poker rooms like PokerRoom and EuroPoker, which utilize its mobile casino software for poker. While mobile software for other rooms may exist or be in development, I haven't encountered any yet.
Ongame’s Mobile Poker Software
Ongame offers a lightweight mobile poker application, around 250 Kb, with both online and offline modes. Players can enhance their skills in tournaments across four skill levels, from beginner to expert, and earn mobile poker bonuses.
The standout feature is the mobile poker games, specifically Texas Hold’em, available only in cash game format. Additional features like a four-color deck, 3D graphics, chat, detailed information, and sound options can be downloaded.
Starting a Mobile Poker Game
Before beginning, you can filter tables based on game type (limit or no-limit), table size (full, short-handed, or heads-up), betting limits, and whether you want to play with real money, play money, or participate in offline tournaments.
After setting your preferences, press "Get Tables" to view available options?"these tables mirror those in the online version. There's an option to see all tables or only those with open seats. Unfortunately, queuing for full tables isn't available; you can join or observe active games, though.
Game Interface and Navigation
The mobile table replicates the online version's design and avatars, though it shows slightly over half the table on-screen. Navigation is intuitive using a joypad, allowing you to select a seat and enter your buy-in (if a minimum is set, it will display). Choose whether to post a blind immediately or wait for your turn by pressing [1] or [2].
The screen's text is small, so keen attention is necessary. The main navigation keys are: 1 to fold, 2 to call, and 3 to bet/raise. In no-limit games, selecting bet/raise opens a window to enter your amount, either via keyboard input or incrementally using the joypad.
Overall, the interface is user-friendly, especially in limit games. Data usage is minimal, consuming less than 200 Kb over half an hour, which is efficient compared to typical mobile casinos.
Conclusion
Ongame’s mobile poker experience is streamlined and accessible, providing a solid platform for both casual and seasoned players. While lacking some features, it offers a convenient way to enjoy poker on the go.
