PokerStars Home Games
PokerStars Home Games

PokerStars has launched a massive update to its Home Games product, making them available on the mobile app in addition to adding several new game formats.

Home Games have increased in popularity at PokerStars, as they make it possible for PokerStars’ players to create private clubs where they can run cash games and tournaments against friends, family, and anyone else who receives an invite code for the club.

Previously, Home Game players had to be at home, literally, because they were only available on the downloadable desktop PokerStars client. Now Home Games are available on the excellent mobile app, meaning players have more freedom than ever before when it comes to competing against their friends, being able to play poker on mobile as well.

It's so easy to set up a PokerStars Home Game
