CAN YOU PLAY MOBILE IN AUSTRALIA?
The Australian government have introduced a raft of new anti-gambling legislation that has forced major poker rooms like PartyPoker and PokerStars to exit Australia. As a result, you poker players from places like Melbourne and Sydney can no longer play mobile poker at these sites. Thankfully there are still a few options available so we've put together this guide to iPhone and Android poker in Australia.
The growing popularity in mobile gaming should not come as a huge surprise to many. Portable devices such as the Sony Xperia or Google Nexus enable players to take their game on the road for the first time. I've spoken to many players who have found it almost impossible to revert to the mouse and keyboard after using the far more intuitive touchscreen controls that smartphones and tablet computers now offer. Initially gameplay was hampered a little by the smaller screen sizes but the arrival of devices such as the Samsung Galaxy Note, with its extra large Super AMOLED screen has won over even the most ardent of critics. The super crisp graphics that these handsets offer makes for a truly immersive gaming experience that would simply not be possible on a conventional desktop monitor. Thanks to the incredible processing power of the current generation of mobile computing chips, it is little wonder that even Xbox and PlayStation fans are ditching their large black boxes in favor of iOS and Android tablets and phones.

The Android operating system is an open software platform which makes it the ideal choice for real money gamblers in many countries, as its users are not restricted to whatever apps are available from Google Play. iPhone and iPad owners will be aware that real money casino and Texas Hold'em apps are only available in a very limited number of countries because of Apple's tight controls over the iTunes App Store.

Many online poker rooms have chosen not to develop real money poker apps for the US market due to its restrictive and complex anti-online gambling laws. Thankfully that all looks set to change in 2014 thanks to advances in
HTML5, which makes is far easier to create feature-rich web-based poker applications that are platform independent so they can be played on any device, including the BlackBerry Z10, Nokia Lumia, Samsung Galaxy Z10 or iPhone 5S. Carbon Poker have already released this impressive U.S. friendly app and many more look set to follow their lead over the coming months. This new cross platform technology drastically reduces the cost of developing games, finally making it commercially viable for U.S. facing poker networks to develop their open applications for the first time. We've created this list of the top U.S. poker apps that offer cash games and tournaments so check back regularly for updates.
Online poker has had quiet a chequered past in the United States. Full Tilt released their Rush Poker Mobile app way back in November 2010. Following the events of Black Friday in April 2011, both Full Tilt and PokerStars were forced to shut their doors and the app was subsequently removed from the Android Market (as it was called back then). With the big online poker rooms now out of the picture, the remaining U.S. facing poker networks simply didn't have the resources necessary to develop a poker client for tablets and smartphones. Astonishingly it took another 3 years until Carbon would develop an Android and iOS compatible Texas Hold'em cash game that welcomed U.S. citizens.
