How to play poker: a free tutorial is coming

30 October 2026

Never played poker?

The free tutorial lands on Monday 2 November, and a full learning guide follows on the site.

The in-game tutorial: Monday 2 November

  • It arrives in our next release, on Monday 2 November.
  • You don't need to know anything first. It deals you a real game of Texas Hold'em and talks you through it as you play.
  • It explains your cards, when it is your turn, what each button does, and who won and why.
  • It is free, and there is nothing to read before you start.

A learning guide on how to play poker

  • We're also adding a learning section to the site, separate from this blog.
  • It is a step-by-step course on how to play poker, for people who would rather read and learn before they sit down.
  • It covers the rules of Texas Hold'em, the order of hands, how betting works, and tips for your first games.
  • We don't have a date for it yet. We'll announce it here.

Until then

  • Stay tuned. The tutorial drops on Monday.
