Creating a table: the game and game modes

The “+” button in the lobby → Create Table: poker games, arcade games, Events and templates. Then the Ring Game, SNG or MTT format, seats and game modes.

Club lobby → “+” → Create Table → NLH

Tables are created by the owner and managers. In the club lobby tap the round “+” button at the bottom right to open Create Table with the list of games. A table has a lot of settings, so we’ve split them into pages by screen block: this one covers the game and modes, then come the main settings, advanced options, SNG and MTT.

For a first table pick NLH, Ring Game — cash hold’em players can join and leave at any time. It’s the easiest way to check blinds, buy-in and rake before opening the rest of your games.

Save a good setup with the Save button at the bottom of the settings screen — it appears in Table Templates, and your next tables take seconds to create from it.

  • The NLH variant: Regular, 3-1 or 6+ (Short Deck).
  • Jackpot — the table is part of the club jackpot, with a jackpot fee (turning on the jackpot).
  • Stand Up Game — elimination: the last player who hasn’t won a pot loses.
  • Sushi Game — a special mode with extra payouts (rules in “?”).
  • Ante Up — raised antes for action; Double Board — two boards, the pot is split between them.
  • Bomb Pot — periodic hands where everyone antes and play starts on the flop.
  • Pot Fold — a pot fold mode (rules in “?”); Seven-Deuce — a bonus from every player for winning a pot with 7-2.
For a first table keep all Game Modes off — plain cash is easiest for players. Each mode’s exact rules are in the app’s “?” hints.
