Before you pull up a chair
- Can I learn if I’ve never played?
- Yes. Try the optional beginner lessons or start a coached hand to understand the rules, your cards, and the options available on your turn.
- Are the chips worth real money?
- No. Online play uses practice chips with no monetary value.
- What’s the difference between Play as guest and Play with saved progress?
- Both are free and play against computer opponents. Play with saved progress uses your account to save your profile, chips, XP and rank so you can pick up where you left off. Play as guest needs no account and earns no account XP or ranks; your browser may keep a local save. Neither requires a host code; that’s only for private game-night reservations.
