How do I refill play-money?
When you join a Play for fun table, you are entitled to 2000 USD (play currency) per 24 hours. Once you have exhausted your money, also referred to as chips, you will have to wait until that time has lapsed. When you choose a table you can see how high the stakes per table are. We advise beginners to start with the lowest amounts possible, so that they can learn the game. We advise you to play and bet wisely as you will start to really enjoy the games that way.
The reason for why we limit the amount of play-money per 24 hours is for the thrill of the game. Although some players complain that their money runs out too quickly we do this to make the game feel genuine. If we would give players unlimited play-money, it would be difficult to grasp the concept of risk, and the thrill you get from the sensation of winning. Also, you would get accustomed to making unrealistic bets and careless plays.
How can I find the play-money games?
They are easy to find once you know where to look for them. After entering the poker lobby, you will find the Play tables in the list of game types. Each game type has Play for Fun games, indicated in the following manner: Play followed by the game type; e.g. Play Texas Holdem games. Once you click on this option, all the play for fun tables appear in the centre of the lobby, including the minimum stake per table.
Can I change my Alias or can I have more than one?
