So you actually play on a PC or a phone? I thought you tell every new member to avoid online poker. I believe you actually tell them to not play it. Seems a bit contradictory don't ya think? ... WTF?

I think is more difficult in the mobile, in the PC you can watch better your opponents and be more comfortable.

It’s most convenient to play on a computer; you get the full experience—viewing the tournament lobby, tagging players and multi-tabling with more than four tables. Playing on a phone is a nice bonus or a good option when your PC isn't available. Sometimes I play satellites on my phone and the main tournament on my PC. I like that approach.

If you're very right you're on the phone and suddenly you get a message and you leave the room to answer and go back to the room sometimes you have to log in once again you get lost in a few hands, on the PC it's easier you can open a lot of tables and a lot of rooms, and you can watch fun videos and more, I use two monitors I had an old one saved and it still works.

These options each have their own set of pros and cons and offer different experiences for the end user. In most cases, a PC is recommended, as all the benefits are only realized when used on a computer. You might wonder why most pros play exclusively on computers. It's probably for a reason: desktop clients are more convenient for long poker sessions. But if you plan to play on the go, nothing beats a tablet or phone.

I play more seriously on my computer because when I'm on my phone, it feels like I'm just playing to pass the time.

On PC I play far better , more relaxed , I can have many tables open , fix their sizes and focus on the one that is most important . I can do many things simultaneously. On mobile I struggle to focus at the game . I play worse on mobile , less hours , less focus , more mistakes , more uncomfortable. And many disconnections online on mobile

Yes, a little. On PC I'm more comfortable because I can see more information and make decisions more easily. On mobile, I tend to play a bit simpler and avoid marginal spots.

PC
6 tables → many decisions → less time per decision → more range-based play, automation, and pattern recognition → high volume.
Mobile
1 table → fewer simultaneous decisions → more attention available → more time to observe the opponent → potentially more individualized decisions.

Hello :)
Naturally, playing on a computer is far superior and more comfortable than playing on a mobile phone; on a computer, we can browse poker rooms or play multiple games on the same screen without having to switch between pages, as is the case on mobile.

I play more disciplined on PC. On mobile, I usually play in a more relaxed state, like when I’m lying down or doing something else at the same time while holding my phone

It´s more comfortable to play on PC, so I think I play better there.

Playing on a mobile App can be comfortable. There's always something positive about that.

Yes, I do. On a PC, I play more seriously because it's easier to multi-table, take notes, and stay organized. The larger screen also helps me pay closer attention to betting patterns and table dynamics. On mobile, I usually stick to one table and play lower volume. It's convenient when I'm away from my computer, but I try to avoid making difficult decisions if I'm distracted. For me, the PC is better for long, focused sessions, while mobile is best for casual or shorter games.

The big problem with mobile is playing on different Apps (e.g., 888 and PS)... the advantage is that you can play anywhere.

Yeah! It’s a totally different game—I bet thinking I have pocket Aces, but it’s actually A-4; I go all-in with Q-Q, only to look again and see it was Q-9... 🤣I can't see a thing on my phone.

I definitely play better on PC; on mobile, I can't stay focused, and it feels like I'm just going through the motions.

I never play on phone. The screen is too small. Uncomfortable holding it, etc. Cannot imagine having to play an entire tournament on my phone, desktop pc all the way.
