Some gambling sites provide solo poker games, like BlackJack, 3 Card Poker even TX hold'em.
Would you spend your time on them?
Do you only play with other players?
Or you just don't play poker online?

i think i will try tx hold'em although i am not good to play poker, just my curious to see how to play the games. actually in the past when i am playing poker, usually i am playing with other players in online. i remember that i am playing poker in facebook games but i have no chance to win because i can not play with good.

I do play video poker or blackjack in solo sometimes.Just curious, I never saw tx holdem has the solo version ?  :o

i play a little online blackjack from time to time

How do I say this, its not that I don't want to play solo poker online but I don't trust my "luck" if I'm going against the casino itself. There's always a looming thought that if I play solo against the casino, I will always lose even if my hand is good. I think I will always play poker against some players. With that, it will become luck and skill-based game where my odds of winning is higher. Just a thought. I'm not good at gambling and these are just my thoughts.

I have been playing these solo games on 777coin from years and haven't stopped yet . Its fun , whenever I am bored of these texas holdem with other players I go there and spend some time , haven't won big but have made some profits here and there.

The solo poker games or the video poker thing is complete shit IMO. It's very boring and takes out the skill from the poker. I have played some poker with other players online, but there are very few places where you can find these lobbies and on top of that the players are also very less.

I think solo poker games suitable for casual playing.For gambling, we always want to beat others, more strategy, and more fun.

Logically what you said is correct because if one gambling for fun then it is good to play with others instead of playing with a computer built in game. Anyway, I'm still very beginner to poker so not yet really gambled with anyone still learning this game.

If you can stay away playing this do it mate gambling have no good benefits to everyone, once you got addicted with it will a first step to wreck your life and not only your life also your family. Playing poker is one of the best gambling game ive play but now i starting to quit gambling i just want to give all my free time to my family than to play gambling.

If you get used to play poker face to face with other player then no wonder you feel boring.
But if you looking for a temporary entertainment i think it is worth to play those kind games.
Indeed i am also not really love to play it , but sometimes feel better to try every single game available.

I play poker on the net

I like play poker and I love play alone, never play with other players online.Many texas holdem sites use bots, eventually you still play with yourself.

The bot tries to simulate what the real world poker player would do and so i don't see anything wrong so long as you have an opponent whether a bot or human you can always learn something and improve your game.

I live TX hold'em poker I'm addicted to it even with facebook games, I spent some money just to have a lot of chips together with my friends.


Yes I would love to play alone as there's no disturbance with some people behind me that will be teaching me how to play.


I'm very flexible, I can play alone and I can play with group.


I do.  :)

I do not like to play online poker, i prefer to play in offline with my friends because in online it is system generated we do not know if the dev set the system to loose all the capital of the players since it is online we do mot have control on the cards they shown to us.

When we do play physically it is really frustrating on those times on where there are people behind you try to teach you on what you gonna do.This is what i dont like on playing with other players when there spectators but i totally love on playing against other players physically than on playing alone online which you can really test out on how good you are on poker.

yes i would like to play it and i was playing TX hold'em poker several times it was very fun although my results doesn't so good moreover playing blackjack is one of my favourite game but difficult to win when we playing poker surrounding the players which controlled by the owner because they are sometimes cheating us and eventually we always be lost

I like to play them all as long as they are trustable and the bet has not have any intention for being scam.
It's fun to play with friend especially when using bitcoin, unlike other fiat, betting with cryptocurrency provide more challengging

solo games are like always -EV , you can't make money mastering these games so they may be fun but you won't make profits in the long run
while multi player poker is both fun and profitable if you are good , so why focusing on these games when you can play a game that you have a chance to make money playing it ?!

that's my opinion of course , some people tend to play more -EV games than playing profitable games
sometimes I do play these games , but my main volume is playing normal poker

I played Caribbean Poker a lot before, that is amazing fame for me. First time ever I played this game on betcoin.tm that is an old site, I don't know do they still exist but I spent hours in playing Caribbean Poker there. I played solo and it was online for bitcoins,  but I would really like to try live Caribbean Poker in some live casino, it was interesting to play online but in live casino feeling would be amazing I believe. In my town there isn't this game, most of then didn't even hears about this kind of poker.

I like to play alone with texas hold'em poker. Playing alone is like I'm depending on myself and I like that more often since people that are gambling with me aren't helping that much when I'm in times of trouble about my cards so that's decided.

Thank you all !  ;)
Your opinions are very valuable!
Thank you

Yeah I hate that feeling when you are in an open place playing poker and there are people who are just passing by and meddling with your strategy as if they think they are better than us. I hate that feeling so I love to stay at home when I feel that I have to gamble and play poker online. Sometimes if I have a big loss for the day, I'm only playing with those poker apps that I can play for free.

and when we play solo poker., we have our own satisfaction when we get the victory,. and it will be different if we hear feedback from others once a close friend or family

but I advise not to involve anyone when you gamble .. because gambling requires calm so that we can think clearly, when we gamble and surrounded by many friends, there will be many pressures that enter and make us a little shaky,.

That’s why I don’t play those games. I’ve tried them in crypto sites to see how they work but I get small regular income from playing multi player poker online, so I prefer playing the kind of poker that brings me profits. However, I understand that for many people they are an enjoyable way to pass the time, as well as other casino games.

I would play solo, no problem at all.
Actually that's how I only play with btc.

This is quite a point! Like the games we offer(solo poker as you mentioned), even with a very low house edge, it is still not possible set EV above 100%.
it's depending on which kind of player you belong to.

Hmm. I never knew about hold'em being a solo game, honestly I haven't encountered such a game yet. I'll probably research about it next time I want to play poker. However, I don't think it would be fun since I think poker is a social game where you interact with players you are playing with, however for the loners out there this is their chance at playing a game by themselves.

Yes satisfaction for playing solo poker is there but everyone when playing does have their satisfactory level. Victory or not we have to reach that limit before being satisfied. I don't want to hear also some feedback coming from my close friend or even my family about the way I play with poker, it's out of their league and it's my business though.

I occasionally play poker online. But only fake money. All because I'm a bad poker player. Play for entertainment. ;D

I've played poker before but I don't play it regularly because I know I won't do well on these type of games. If a casino started offering promotions to make it slightly profitable then I might be interested to play poker again.

You should visit Nitrogensports. They have a lot of poker tournaments and an hourly freeroll if you can't afford to spend money.

Before when i was just studying poker, i prefer to play alone most of the time with ai. Though when you've experienced the feeling of excitement playing with other playes, then i believe most would shift to pvp poker rather than playing alone

Yeah,I played poker in online it is one of the popular games on gambling but i am always supposed to lose in poker so i decided to quit pokers maybe i am not playing well in card games.But now i play predicting games it is highly luck based so no skills needed just believe your fortune and win in some instances but it is fun to play the predicting games.

I love video poker and have the impression, that I loose slower as on other games, even make some profits sometimes.

You'll learn in time. The more you play the better you become.

I used to like playing BJ online because playing against AI is basically the same as playing with a live dealer. The game is just too easy you either have decent cards or not.
I prefer to play poker with people because it gives you higher chance of winning even if you don't see their faces.

I have never played online. But if I had enough bitcoin, I would have given it a try. I would not be wasting my time playing tho. I would just try it out to see if I would be capable of winning or not. That is not a good reason, I know. Actually, I am into real life gambling.

It is riskier and it really drives you crazy when you are against tough opponents. I highly recommend playing with real people. You will learn many things, believe me.

Playing poker alone sounds good, playing with your own bitcoin and you have your own decision for it. And whatever happens whether you lose or not that's fine since the bitcoin you are gambling is yours and you won't think how to repay if you just borrowed it.

I like to play poker but I like to play it with other players, because I can used my skill to play,if solo poker it's like playing with luck so it will just the same with the other game and it is more exciting to play with group, we can chat while playing

Haha! It seems that you are both a player and the cleverest in the house as well. You are using fake money for the purpose of playing poker that is not productive in terms of winning money at all. You can keep up with the activity because it is a sort of fun for you indeed.

I would like you to visit the online sites that help you to play poker in solo so that you can get the skills in your head before you go for the actual casino where the  psychological pressure is much high.

I wouldn't, the house edge on those poker games isn't too great and I don't find it fun to play against AI opponents.

Poker is fun just because you can play it against other players and you have an edge over them if you're better at the game, you just don't have that if you're playing against the house.
Plus you don't really know in what way the game is rigged against you.

Playing solo poker games is just like you are playing casino where no calculation works only luck works, but when you are playing poker against the real player, their strategy and other ideas work.

You should play at least micro stakes its way more fun to actually play for some money and you risk very little play penny stakes.  The players are just as bad at these levels and top level play money games.

Without having proper knowledge and experience playing a poker game with real money is risky. Because we can't predict who will be our opponents. If they are experienced then surely we will lose our money. I also not have the full knowledge I am still learning.

but I think that kind of action is not necessary because it will only spend your time,
and you will lose money with a continuous amount of cock.
you should first learn to gamble to the professional gamblers,
and learn the tricks and with it you will not get into real gambling foolishly

It was a game of mind and you needed to focus about it, that's why playing against the house is a more challenging situations to do. The more you are to read determine the moves of an opponent fun and pressure combined, which mainly created a certain scenario that will eventually made you decide for a quick try that will also help you solve the current game plans. Well, the chance of playing better might not be so easy for the main time you played it for short period of time, but as long as you stayed long you will be better player that anybody connected to the game.

I do not mind if I play against an AI or against a player, it would be easier to win against AI once we figured out the pattern on how the program behave.  Unlike playing agaist other player, their judgement always varies and it is hard to tell the pattern of their games.  With against AI once we get familiar to the game and AI tendencies, it would be easier to book a winning unless the game is rigged.

I don't usually play poker online or in land based casino but I did tried it I like playing with other people than playing solo, its boring if you play by yourself and with the banker unlike if you play with other people you get to chat with others and sometimes you meet new friends.

Even there is certain pattern when you play against artificial intelligence or something like that you won't be able to make it profitable.
There is house edge and it makes the pattern changes periodically depends on the situation.
That is what i am feeling whenever i found a pattern on a lolo poker , it won't remain the same for long time.

Right. And one factor gping for poker among many gamblers is that you get a chance to pit your skills with other players and that makes it a lot more fun. If you're playing solo, there are many gambling games meant for solo players like dice.

I think it will be waste of time and sources if any bitcoin casino decides to add solo poker like you call it. Poker is great when you play with many people, you can try to learn others psychology and make gambling more profitable + entertain.
However there aren't casinos (or maybe there are 1-2) which offers poker, that's sad fact for me as a poker player who likes tournires and etc. Hope gambling website owners will consider my proposal.

Play with bots which are owned by the casinos?
No way.
I would rather wait for other players than doing that.
Just thinking that you are playing with bots will get you bored anytime.
Maybe it will just take me 3 games then I might stand and go.

I've played all types of the poker. I have actually started with the 5 draw poker and after that, I have learned a texas hold em. After some time I have discovered online poker and registered on almost every site that was offered. Then it came time to try the solo version of the poker and that was the very annoying experience. My entertainment was off and in most cases that I should win and when I had the winning hand, at least I thought so, I lost. I think that some casinos have placed a counter bots that are dealing cards in for the casino's favor. Solo poker can attract you with a starter winnings but the more time you spend playing the odds will be more and more against you.

I will. I've played poker on my pc but with no monetary betting. Solo poker online is nice but sometimes its like controlled by the system. I think the chances of winning is lesser than the usual poker with many opponents. Solo poker maybe programmed. I think its more fun to play poker with many. But if for beginners maybe solo poker helps for practice purposes.

I play poker online sometimes.

Some variations of poker are actually solved. Just like blackjack there is always a move you can do that is technically best. One of these variations are headsup sit and gos with high blinds and short stacks. You can just ply push/fold at that point.

I prefer to play with other players, I cannot really entrust my funds to video poker/blackjack games but seeing other players at the same time as me
would be more difficult to scam all of us at once.

Yes actually I play all kind of games in casino, I like to play different and unique games, only for poker game I prefer to play it with other people, but PvP game got high risk of cheating and sometimes need to wait for other people then we can continue to play, so I never play pvp online, I play it in casino

I don't want to play solo because i want the high profit from others guy too not 1:1. Even it's more risky than 1:1

play solo poker online which mean i have to playing games against the bots and that's difficult thing because obviously my games results will be lost but yes i used to play it sometimes but only for fun with use small amount of money however actually card games is my favourite too but very unfortunate that the results was pretty bad

I generally do not like playing this kind of games. I think it is scary and risky. I'm afraid of losing all my money, as it happens in the casino) First, you're lucky and you're playing more and more, you bet big bets and then, you lose sharply. And here is the most difficult thing to stop! Therefore, I prefer not to risk money. Maybe I'm old-fashioned and boring ;D

Yea, I play solo all the time.
The site where I bet, has big minimum bids for real tables.

Well people has a other perspective regarding with gambling. Though youve said that if lossing streaks came then it is difficult to stop that is because you are really greedy to get your losses and cant stop because thinking that if you bet more and bet bigger you will get it instantly but lossing, i think there are few people that can control their self on that situation. Though i salute you also because you will not risk your money in gambling but i would advise you that just try it so that you are not ignorant on it .

Poker is also gambling, just there name is different and names are not concerned here, here the aim is money for people. One should play a game if he is skillful in it and expect that he can easily win in it and should start with less amount of money because loosing great amount is very hard but a small amount can be tolerated and I think one shouldn’t get addicted to it because it is a cure it will make you lose all of your money.

I think if losing streak comes, one becomes more conscious about his gambling and stops gambling because it is giving him loss day by day instead of making him unstoppable. People stop to play gamble when they are losing because they don’t want to lose money more. If they will fail to win coming games, they think they would be depending upon debts to meet their basic life needs and I appreciate their thinking.

Yes, especially when I don't have time to visit a casino due to loaded schedule. As an occasional, I a lot a day for my visit though there are times that I can't so I do play poker online. Even though it's quite boring since I don't have the chance to meet new people but I do still enjoy my game.


I'd love if I could see other players, it's more exciting and thrilling. Though I'm not against playing online, If that's the only available way for me to play poker then It's fine me. If I were to chose it would still be playing with other players not live via online but in person.

I will play them but still i prefer playing games with other people. Conversation with another human actually makes a difference. Also playing online sometimes is boring.

I've tried playing online but what I felt was only boredom, I would more prefer playing in actual it felt good talking and laughing with your co player. It felt more intense or thrilled when I saw my opponent's reactions and what makes it more exciting when they pay you with fiat/physical money (if you win) and if not better luck next time.

basically i dont play poker online i dont experience fun and excitement in playing poker online than playing poker on others because i feel excitement when i see my oponent face when they lose.ahahah

 I'm not sure if I have this correct is that your only play for yourself and with the dealer? Or just play alone and no other friends are with you? I haven't played online poker but I have experience it in real life and some of my friends are into it too so we play together. It's not always happening so it's just a way to play for raining money.

Although I do play solo from time to time but I prefer tournaments with hundreds of entrants to solo. The thing is when you win $20 in solo you deprive someone of $20, and if you win the same amount in a tournament with 200 participants the entree fee for the tournament could be as low as $0.25. Idk, maybe this is a twisted logic, because to take a winning place in a tournament you have to "deprive" dozens of their entree fee, but anyway I like to play with many people much more than with only one person.

I guess these solo poker games might only be good for people who are trying their luck or learn more and try strategies, or it might be good if you  take these gambling games way to seriously and want to make a real profit out of it, but i guess poker games are only fun if you are facing other people and it feels more satisfying to win against a player rather than a machine, so if you are in it just for the fun like i do you would only play against real players.

I normally play online against house with doge coin as it is really cheap and I'm always able to satisfy my profit requirement playing against players is actually more fun because they tend to make silly mistakes and we can also take advantage but against house even though it might be fair it's harder for us to win

It's great that you have managed to win a lot of money and that satisfied your requirement. That's a good thing because you are setting limits for yourself and trust me, I have experienced many losses and I will regret those that made me too greedy. Taking advantage of that yourself is great especially if it would make you richer.

More fun if you play with your friends, so you can exchange to tell each card each one we have. And we'll know when we fold or raise bet the game and that's easier. Well I often play with some of my friends maybe at least 1 day a week.

I always try to play against players and doesn't matter if its good player ( who doesn't make silly mistakes ) because you can read the players but you can read the system and you will always end up loosing if you try to constantly win against the system :) and yeah its more fun when you win against real players.

I also agree with your strategy because if you play with other players who could increase her chances and it is for sure there's a winning chance because a player could make mistakes or someone like that. It would be helpful because you know that you are against a human being. I agree with your strategy and I hope you profit.

Well it is the skill based game and really require you to have some sharp memory and calculations skills to have some advantage over others. It is yes not everybody's game as winning would not be easy and luck may not be the favor in winning this game.

I play my own online gambling poker, not with friends or even cheats like having multiple accounts, I gamble to fill my spare time and get rid of fatigue in the head, so gambling is not my main priority, because I am a worker with a gambling habit to relieve stress or amuse themselves while relying on luck.

I does not know why maybe its just me that find online gambling to be unsafe. Online gambling is behind a computer and we cannot ensure a foul play by them, although people might say that even offline gambling can also have foul play but i assume the foul play percentage in offline will be lower. To answer your question i am quite sure i am not very confident and most probably will not play.

although I don't know much about poker game, I think it's not fun if we are only play solo poker online because we only compete with the bots. it is better to ask our friends to join with us so we can enjoy the games and we can have fun with them. I do not like to play alone and so far, if I want to play games, I will ask my friends and I think we can play together and it's not about the money at all.

If we are playing in online means we are not playing with bots we can compete with the real players online from everywhere,I like to play online pokers because I don't have much time to spend for going to the poker clubs.And many people are addicted to play pokers but they don't have enough time at the bust works so online poker can be a gift for them.

I have been play poker at Texas Holdem Poker, it's the first poker site I play. I always play with other people, very boring if playing solo poker. There is no challenge if only play with solo poker, but if I play with other people the challenge is true and thoroughness because it always spurred to win. Chat room always makes me laugh while other people bet with a lot and he lost.
