CakePoker Mobile Review
CakePoker is one the top poker room and allows US based players. CakePoker’s Mobile Client has just been recently lanuched and currently in BETA stage and only supports Windows Mobile 5 and 6 based phones. HTC Touch Diamond with Windows Mobile 6 was used to review.
I used HTC Touch Diamond with Windows Mobile 6.1 OS and internet connection through GPRS for reviewing.
To start off you can directly download the app CakePoker Mobile using your Pocket IE. Download size is 857kb and takes around 1100kb after installation.
You need to register before you can start playing for fun or real money which you can either do through your PC or you can register using the application as well. But you will PC access to transact funds. Enter Signup Code TB while signing up and get maximum bonus (110% up to $600)
Before you can start playing you need to set options for table selection. Only Texas Holdem game is available with Pot Limit, No Limit and Limit varients.
Talking about Graphics and Interface I was really very disappointed. When you are playing on Windows Mobile you expect better stuff but it appeared worst than usual Java. Screenshots you see may appear a bit messed up than the official ones but thats how it was showing up at my end. But it does provide a playable experience. Action buttons on screen are a bit small and it gets a bit irritating and a wrong stroke can execute a wrong call, So it’s a good idea to use Phone buttons instead of touch screen
