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.

Entered through the PC in home games, the mobile phone does not play. All the same home games can not be played on a mobile device, nor how. And this is what I have found remains to. The new feature that will probably get the most thumbs-up is the addition of Home Game on the PokerStars mobile app. I am still a PC guy myself, but nowadays many people don’t like having to sit.

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.

In perhaps its biggest upgrade in a decade, PokerStars is rolling out an overhaul to its Home Games product that allows players to play in and administer their own private tournaments and cash games.

The updates will come in stages. As of today, admins can create the ever-popular progressive knockout tournaments for their home game. They can also spread “total PKOs,” where the entire prize pool is distributed in bounties.

Soon, PRO understands, many other game types will be available for tournaments, including many of the operator’s unique novelty formats released in the last couple of years: 5- and 6-card Omaha, the latter of which only launched in February; 6+ Hold’em, which debuted last year; and Showtime, Split, the very recent Swap Hold’em and Fusion, which are only made available in public cash games and tournaments for limited times.

The process of setting up a new game has also improved, the operator has stated, promising a more intuitive configuration screen. Tweaks have been made to the offer of game types and speeds, with four options (hyper, turbo, regular and slow) available. Late registration is also now enabled for all home games tournaments.

But perhaps the biggest upgrade, certainly long-overdue, is the support for Home Games on mobile devices. It is currently being deployed on all Android devices that have installed the app directly, the company stated; it will roll out to Play Store installs soon.
