Report an issuePlay Texas Hold'em with your friends on a beautiful 3D poker table. Completely free and no internet required.
Sparkling Poker is a new poker experience coming to your iPhone and iPad. Use your iPad as the poker table, and iPhones or iPods as the cards. No need to be online, just play with your friends. Watch as you put your cards and chips on the animated 3D poker table.
Sparkling Poker uses bluetooth to realize a unique way of playing poker. You don't need to be connected to the internet, just use an iPad as a poker table, and hold your iPhone or iPod in your hand, just like you would hold your cards.
See your chips move from your device onto the table, see your cards be revealed. All the tension of regular poker, where you can look your opponents in the eye. But all the score keeping, rules and dealing are being handled for you by your devices.
The table can be run on an iPad or an iPhone. You can also run Airplay on the iPad and Apple tv, making for a unique experience of sitting on the couch in front of the television and all playing the game with individual devices.
Sparkling Poker is fun to play, completely free, and can be played anywhere.
How to play:
1. Make sure bluetooth is enabled on all player devices 2. Use one device, preferably an iPad, as Poker table: Select "Cash Game" or "Tournament Game" from the menu and select "Start Game" 3. Select "Join Table" on the other devices and start playing. 4. You can set a bet by dragging on a chip stack from top to bottom.
NOTE: Sparkling Poker is a game for 2-5 players. It needs to be downloaded on at least three devices in order to play. One device will work as a dedicated poker table.
IMPORTANT: Bluetooth must be on!!

8 of 15I have played more poker games in my devices but all these were need to play against software but with this game I can now play real poker. I got this game more realestic than any other pokers.
Sparkling poker is amazingly a cool game to have in iOS devices. This game surely deserve a 5 Star rating because of freindly interfaces and also for high quality graphics. Very much lovely game.
fix bugs guys!! i need to play poker!!! the iphone app works but the ipad app crashs!!! fix bugs fixbugs fix bugs!!!!
No matter what I do I can't get cards dealt. The table goes around and around and that's all!
Would have been nice to know you have to buy chips Teaser $500.00 gone. Now I have a useless app
Wow! in a word one of the best 3D game I ever seen. I also like this game becuase of multiplayer system which will help me to check my poker skill with my friends. I am always waiting for this kind of game. Really great game to have in my devices.
I was sceptical but this really works amazingly well. It's a lot of fun and impressive to all play together with their own device. Can't believe it's free.
entirely unplayable. I don't even think I understand the intention of the developers. you need 3 devices to get two people playing? also a visual eyesore. don't even waste your time downloading this.
