Hi, I've recently installed a poker app for my 4s. If I'm playing games via 3G I'm wondering how many packets of data is flowing through to use up my 500 meg limit per month?... is it very minimal?.. theres hardly any graphics being downloaded.
"""Once you're in a game, you can expect an average 10K download and 5K upload per minute. These amounts may vary with the speed of the game.
If you play one table for an hour, you will likely use a bit less than 1MB download and 500KB upload."""
... so If I have 500 meg per month thats on average about 2 meg per hour (safe count) so thats 250 hours play.... I could play for 8 hours a day for a month. is that sum about right?

I'm sure you can download an app to keep track of your usage
I played BFpoker on a mobile connection tethered to my PC for a few weeks and can confirm it used very little internet. Not sure if all sites are the same. Damage was done when I surfed other sites.
If you're not on a contract I would urge you to move to giffgaff.com, they give truly unlimited internet for £10 a month. I moved there 6 months ago and now have the whole family on the network. They run off the O2 network so if you've strong O2 coverage then you'll get the same on giffgaff. I download a lot of podcasts and listen to internet radio - last month I used over 4GB of data. Really can't commend the network enough.

As for giffgaff.. I'm kickign myself for upgrading to 4s and extending my contract!. 500 meg limit should be more than enough though.. 1 meg per hour usage so that gives me atleast 10 hours a day for the whole month... if i dont surf much.

Just discovered this software (from the worlds biggest poker site.) They have an I-Pad, I-Phone and Android real cash app. None of this Zynga junk and it doesn't require flash which prevented me from playing the old FT software on my mobile.
It says it's unavailable in NI but I'm currently playing a $1.50 6 seat Limit STT. I would be wary about registering for a quick game, it would be very easy registering for a $150 STT if you made the wrong choice. Knowing how quick STT's fill up it would be easy to do.
On the small screen of my phone it's pretty slick but don't think you could play any more than 1 table at a time. That's fine anyway as it's not meant as a replacement for your PC. It would be handy if they stored notes on the server (like they do on BF) that way they would be available on the app. Not sure how HEM will integrate with this (don't mean the HUD, just hand histories transferred to HEM)
I'd like to move up a star and this could surely help me, I can see myself playing this a lot.
I just hope this works when I switch my WIFI off.
I'm playing on a San Francisco Phone.

Cards could be a bit bigger but I can still see them, there may be an option for a larger version. 4 tabling without any notes or HUD when the tables are stacked would be suicidal. I can't see my battery level when playing, something which would need to be addressed. Colour coding as well as notes would also help.
It would be worth investing in a spare battery :)

I'm ok there.. I have ot plugged into the pc at work while I play ;) I agree the players cards could be slightly larger but generally the software is flawless and a true benchmark for this whole online industry.

wow. played a game on my tablet and they really have it working well.
pre game navigation is a bit awkward but they say they havent optimised it for tablets yet so hopefully wont bee too far off the pc client lobby.
