If you are new to the online poker site, we suggest you read our detailed Pokerbaazi review.

Pokerbaazi Game Software

RATING: 4.6/5

Too many exciting features in one game – That’s what we can say about the Pokerbaazi game software. Newbies will fall in love with the game as they can interact with their opponents with many cool and fun emojis. Professionals will love the Player Stats and Player Info features that allow them to analyze the skill levels of their opponents.

Pokerbaazi App

RATING: 4.8/5

The app is definitely one of the best-looking poker apps in India. The app is filled with lots of exciting features like emojis, player stats, avatars, etc. The colourful, interactive Pokerbaazi app is one of the best poker apps available in the gaming market.

How to Download the Pokerbaazi App?

Pokerbaazi android app and Pokerbaazi iOS app are available for download on Pokerbaazi.com. You can download the app by following the steps below:

Step 1: Visit www.pokerbaazi.com on your mobile browser.

Step 2: Tap on the “Download Now” button.

Step 3: Open the Pokerbaazi apk file and tap on the “Install” button.

Step 4:  Once the Pokerbaazi poker app is installed, tap on the “Open” button.

If you face issues while installing the Pokerbaazi apk, allow ‘Unknown Sources’ in the security settings of your phone.

Pokerbaazi Mobile App Lobby

The lobby is as innovative as the game tables. The visually appealing Pokerbaazi mobile lobby is not in a tabular format. The tables are displayed in a unique way that is much easier to sort Baazi Poker games. The cheapest tables in the industry, with Re. 0.5/1 blinds, are available in the lobby. You can select the types of games you wish to play – Cash, Tourney, OFC or Free Entry Tournament. Also, you can choose the PLO or Holdem tab in the lobby to play Texas Holdem Poker or Pot Limit Omaha games.

Pokerbaazi App Key Features

Portrait Mode: This unique feature stands out than the rest. In most of the poker apps, you need to turn your phone 90 degrees to play. However, in the Pokerbaazi apk, you don’t need to turn your phone as the game tables work in the portrait mode. This innovative table design is as spacious as the game tables played in the landscape mode.

Player Stats: You can view the buy-ins and winnings of all the players at the table. This gives you a general idea about the winning and losing players at the table. You can also strategize on how to play against such players.

Player Info: This feature tells a lot about your opponents. Tap on the profile phone of your opponents, and it will display what kind of a player he is at Pokerbaazi live games – Amateur, Semi-pro, Pro, World Class, Legendary or Baazigar. You start from amateur and progress to higher classes as you play more games. Also, you can colour code your opponent and even add notes.

Hand History: Like most of the poker games, you can also view all the Hand History played at the tables. You can review your hands and analyze what went wrong or right in your previous games during the current gaming session.

Straddle: Pokerbaazi app allows you to straddle in the cash games. If you select the Straddle option, an extra bet (2X Big Blind) will be placed before the cards are dealt.

My Stats: Tap on your profile pic and select the MY STATS option. This will show all the hands played, hands won in a showdown and before a showdown, Flops seen in SB, BB and others in a graph.

Reward Points:  You can view the live score of your reward points as you play cash games. This is a better and transparent approach to checking your reward points.

Emojis: This is probably the favourite feature of all players. Cute and funny emojis are a great way to interact with your opponents. You can tease, laugh, cry, punch, etc., with the emojis.

Avatars: Pokerbaazi app has some of the best avatars in the market. Popular avatars like Angry Bird, Deadpool, Kungfu Panda, Mr. Bean, etc., are some of the fan favourites.

Web Browser Games

Pokerbaazi doesn’t have a different web browser version. If you click on the Play Now button on the website, the same Pokerbaazi app version will appear. The size of the game window is rectangular like the way it looks on the mobile. It is quite difficult to play in this mode on your computer. If you wish to play on your desktop, we recommend you to download the desktop client app to play on your Pokerbaazi games on your computer.

Desktop Client

Most of the features are similar to the Pokerbaazi mobile app version.  The lobby is designed in a very user-friendly way for players. You can use the filter and select the blinds to sort your desired tables. You can also view the players and their stack sizes of a particular table before taking a seat. OFC games are not available in the desktop client version. However, you can play them by switching to the web browser mode.

The hand history feature in the Pokerbaazi app is modified as Replayer in the desktop client. This feature lets you view all the hands you have played during the session. You can click on the Replayer icon next to the emoji icon to load all the hands played during the session.

Poker Variations on Pokerbaazi

There are 3 poker variations available on Pokerbaazi Games.

No-Limit Texas Holdem Poker: Without a question, No-Limit Texas Holdem Poker is the most played variation on the site. Almost all the Holdem tables are full in the lobby section.

Pot Limit Omaha: Pokerbaazi online site offers Pot Limit Omaha variations as well. You need to make the best 5 card combination by using 2 of your 4 hole cards dealt along with the 3 of the 5 community cards.

Open Face Chinese Poker: This relatively new game is slowing gaining popularity among players on Baazi Poker. You can learn by the game by visiting its tutorial section.

Pokerbaazi Registration Process

RATING: 3.9/5

The site follows a very strict registration process where you need to verify both phone number and email address. This might be too much for new players who are just looking to play a game. The site might lose a lot of new player registrations due to this double verification process.
