A few small fixes.

  • Fixed: Tidier guides. The Texas Hold'em and Speed guides keep their quick answers together in one place.

Hold'em you can read on a phone.

  • Updated: Everyone across the table. Hold your phone upright and the other players sit in a row facing you, each with their name, chips, cards and what they just did. Past three opponents, a second row stands behind. The shared cards and your hand are bigger, and the red chip circles are gone: your stack says YOU and the middle says POT.
  • New: See what won. When a hand ends, a green bar swoops in with the winner, their two cards and the name of the hand, and the shared cards that made it light up. If you were still in, it also tells you what you had.
  • Fixed: Keys that fit. On a computer, the keys shown at the start of a game stay on screen: Hold'em's list no longer spills out of its box, and Shellbound's long row wraps on smaller windows.

Smoother cards. Clearer tables.

  • Updated: Settle into Texas Hold’em. Follow the pot, dealer and blinds in a clearer layout. Adjust raises with an egg slider, check the hand rankings and play with a new lounge soundtrack.

Two new games at the card table.

  • New: Classic Texas Hold’em. Play with two to six friends or three solo bots. Two private cards, five community cards, and free table chips for checking, calling, raising and folding. Table chips are separate from Shellings and have no cash value.

A clearer seat at the card table.

  • Updated: One familiar table. The three card games now put you and your rivals in the same places, with your cards and next action together at the bottom. The table stays clear of extra title and status overlays.
