One of the great things about online poker is that you can play against other real life people without spending a penny while you are finding your feet. Play Money tables are exactly like the real money tables apart from the fact that you are playing against other new players with pretend poker chips. You start off with a balance of play money chips which you can reload for free if they get too low.
Play Money tables are a great way to familiarise yourself with the software and the finer points of the game – the hand rankings, the rounds of betting, player tendencies and more. The level of play you see at the free money tables doesn’t entirely represent the way the game is played at the real money tables because for the most part people have no financial attachment to the chips in front of them, but we still advise strongly that you flex your muscles at these tables before you try out the real thing.
Perhaps the best way to sample the play money tables and still engage in a competitive environment is to register for a play money sit and go tournament. This will play out like a real money sit and go tournament and although there will still be an element of recklessness, everyone still wants to come 1st and play will more closely resemble real money play than the play money cash tables.
