## What is Cardamoo?

Pull up a chair. Cardamoo is free online poker — play Texas Hold'em poker with friends, match up with players around the world, or sharpen your instincts against genuinely tough AI. There's no real money on the table — the chips are virtual, and they stay that way.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• Quick Play — pick your stakes and get seated in seconds, matched with players at your level
• Private tables — host a private poker table in seconds, share the code, and deal your friends in
• Tournaments — relaxed 4-player games, 6-player Sit-n-Go knockouts, and turbo blinds if you like it fast
• AI Arena — practice against bots powered by our in-house neural network, trained on millions of hands
• Learn poker by playing — a hands-on tutorial that teaches you at a real table, not from a wall of rules
• The Barn — card backs, seat frames, and win celebrations to unlock with your chips, plus rarer ones only your play can earn
• Make it yours — seven table themes, from classic navy-and-gold to warm Paper and hand-drawn Doodle, three of them dealing a fully illustrated deck of their own
• Share a hand — turn any replay into a link anyone can watch in their browser, no app needed
• Guest play — friends can try a table as a guest and keep their progress when they sign up
• Poker Night — scan a QR code and any spare screen, TV, tablet, or laptop browser becomes the shared card table; every phone becomes a private controller to peek at your cards, bet, and flick them onto the table to show — no login needed on the big screen
• See how every pot was won — a full showdown breakdown of who made what, split pots and side pots included
• Hand replays & coaching — review the hands you played and get honest feedback on the decisions that mattered
• Plays on any screen — phone or tablet, with a table built for the size you're on
• Friends & parties — add people by username (your real name stays private), party up, and land at the same table — even in Quick Play
• Encounters — a running record of everyone you've shared a table with: hands together, who came out ahead, and when you last met
• Ranks, stats & daily rewards — climb from Novice to Godfather, track every mode separately, and spin the wheel for bonus chips

Cardamoo plays it straight. Cards are dealt fairly, outcomes are never nudged, and the bots play the odds — they can't see your cards.

Cardamoo is free to play. If you want to support development, there's a single optional cosmetic pack, and you can choose to watch an ad for a small bonus — but chips can never be bought, and nothing for sale affects gameplay.

There's more at cardamoo.com — beginner poker guides, an FAQ, and a web version that runs in any browser.

Made by one person in Malaysia. If something breaks or you've got an idea, there's a report button right in the app, and I read every one.

Cardamoo is intended for an adult audience. It does not offer real-money gambling or any opportunity to win real money or prizes. All chips are virtual, have no real-world value, and cannot be purchased, sold, traded, gifted, or redeemed for anything of value. Success at social card games does not imply future success at real-money gambling.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.10.1 — 2026-08-17

Poker Night, refined — with fixes from player reports.

• Chips That Tell the Story — Poker Night chip piles now show how deep each stack runs at your table: a big stack and a short stack finally look the part.
• Your Turn, Unmissable — on controllers, the edge glow now stays lit for your whole turn and goes red when time runs short.
• Action Feed on Your Phone — controllers show who raised and how much, so nobody squints at the big screen.
• One Deck for the Table — Poker Night screens and controllers now always deal the classic card faces, so every player reads the same deck. Card backs stay yours — and if no Barn back is equipped, the big screen now shows your theme's own back, matching your controller.
• Bigger Table Reactions — emotes on the shared screen scale up to stay visible from the couch.
• Track Your Goal — pin any earned Barn item and your lobby progress card follows it.
• Wear What You Earn — unlocked frames, card backs or win effects you've never worn? A new lobby sheet shows off your collection and equips any of it in one tap — and the Barn card counts what's left to try on.
• Fixes — the keyboard no longer opens with a black box covering the chat; text no longer types backwards on iPad-style landscape layouts; long-pressing in the game room no longer selects text; players waiting for a Quick Play seat see everyone seated properly; and some avatars no longer clip in the profile popup.

### 1.10.0 — 2026-08-12

Poker Night is here!

• Poker Night — start from the lobby, scan a QR code, and any spare screen — a TV, a tablet, a laptop browser — becomes the shared card table. No login needed on the big screen; the table just appears.
• Your Phone Is the Controller — everyone plays from their own phone: hold to peek at your cards, feel a buzz when it's your turn, buy back in without leaving the controller, and a battery-saving idle screen between hands.
• Flick to Show — after the hand, flick your cards up to show them on the big screen, or do nothing and they slide quietly back into the deck.
• Arrange the Seats — drag seats on the big screen to match where everyone is really sitting around the room. Turn order follows.
• Table Reactions — pop an emote above your seat on the shared screen.
• Your Look, On the Table — everyone's equipped Barn card back is dealt at their seat on the big screen, and every seat shows a real chip stack: bets slide out in front of each player and sweep into the pot between streets.
• Fourteen New Achievements — for playing hands with friends, claiming daily challenges, keeping your login streak alive, spinning the Lucky Wheel, and winning big all-ins.
• Two New Frame Families — six new hand-drawn frames to earn: the Songbirds for playing with friends and the Watering Can for daily challenges — and the top Songbirds frame comes alive.
• Five New Card Backs to Earn — The Deal, Cheers, the Kept Lantern, the Pinwheel and Shoot the Moon, each earned at the tables.
• A Fresher Lobby — Tournaments and Private Table are back on the lobby, with Poker Night front and center. On desktop, the table panel gains a Center Stage button in wide layouts.

... and another round of smaller fixes and stability improvements across the app.

### 1.9.3 — 2026-08-11

Bring your friends.

• Party Quick Play — party up with two, three or four friends and sit down at the same Quick Play table together. The party leader picks the stakes, everyone lands at one table, and other players around the world fill the remaining seats.
• Encounters — every player you've ever shared a table with now has a record on their player card: how many hands you've played together, who came out ahead, and when your paths last crossed.
• A New Social Tab — Encounters gets its own tab in Social: a running list of everyone you've met at the tables, ranked by how often you've played together.
• Invite Friends to Quick Play — sitting at a Quick Play table with an open seat? Invite a friend straight in from the table menu, or share the link anywhere.
• More Time Between Hands — the pause between Quick Play hands is now 30 seconds, so you can actually read the results before the next deal. Tap Ready and the next hand still deals right away.

... and a round of smaller fixes and stability improvements across the app.

### 1.9.0 — 2026-08-06

Earn your look.

• Frames You Earn — twelve hand-drawn avatar frames that chips cannot unlock at any price: a rising sun for your first win, a full laurel wreath for your thousandth, a triple crown for tournament royalty. Six paths to climb, and the frame you wear says how far you have come.
• Rarity On Everything — every item in the Barn now shows how rare it is, from common up to mythic. Chips can take you as far as legendary; the tiers above that are earned only.
• Already Yours — everything you have already achieved has been credited. Open the Barn and the frames you earned long ago are waiting, unlocked.
• A New Set of Card Backs — eight hand-picked backs across every rarity: Cow Print, the Little Red Barn, and a shimmering Sun & Moon to unlock with chips, plus five you can only earn — a straight-flush star run, a royal-flush firefly jar, a golden halo for a five-win streak, and two mythics: the White Stag and the Milky Way. The rarest ones move.
• New Win Effects — four new ways a win can land, three of them earned only: a fairground bullseye, the pot converging on your seat with a double golden bloom, and a full-table coronation for reaching the very top. Every celebration, old and new, now plays bigger and longer.
• Stand Out at the Table — wear something heroic or mythic and the table knows: your seat carries its color, and when you win a hand, the item is named right on the winner banner.
• Feel Every Deal — your hole cards flip face-up as they reach you, and the board joins the drama: the flop snaps over, the turn takes a beat, and the river holds its breath before it lands.
• A Clearer Turn Timer — a gold ring counts down around the player who is thinking, turning red for the final seconds. One glance says how long is left — and it never covers anyone's face or frame.
• Doodle — a brand-new theme with pencil lines, crayon color, and wobbly hand-drawn frames on everything from the lobby tiles to the buttons at the table. It deals its own illustrated deck, with sketched chips to match. Find it in the Barn under Themes.
• Themes Move Into the Barn — every table theme now lives in the Barn, right alongside your card backs, seat frames, and win effects. The palette button takes you straight there.
• Your Table Look — the Barn now opens with your own seat at the table: your cards, your card back, your frame, your name and your chips, on the exact table your theme deals on. Tap the effect button to watch your win celebration play.
• The Barn Opens to Guests — playing as a guest? You can browse the whole Barn now and switch between the themes available to you.
• Preview Win Effects — see a win effect play out full-screen before you unlock it: just tap Preview in the Barn, even on the ones you are still chasing.
• A Tidier Theme List — Emerald, Amethyst and Crimson were color variations of the Vault theme, so they've been folded back into Vault itself. If you were wearing one, you're on Vault now; every other theme is untouched.
• Polish — theme tiles now preview a King, so you can see each theme's illustrated court cards at a glance. Barn item cards also take on your chosen theme properly — in Doodle they're drawn by hand like everything else — plus a round of smaller fixes across the app.

### 1.8.2 — 2026-07-29

A fresh coat of paint.

• Harbor — a brand-new theme with soft harbor blues, warm paper, and hand-drawn charm. It's the first theme that deals its own cards: a fully illustrated deck with matching chips at every table. Find it under Themes.
• Paper — warm cream, navy ink, and an engraved letterpress deck. The whole app in one calm material.
• A New Look — a warm new app icon with the splash screen to match, and a branded loading screen with a real progress bar in place of the old spinner.
• The Barn in the Lobby — the Barn now has its own tile right on the Play screen, plus a new Themes tab inside for browsing every look and applying one on the spot.
• More Games — Tournaments and Private Table now live together in one tidy spot, keeping the lobby focused on the quickest ways to play.
• Faster & Smoother — a quicker start-up, smoother screen changes, and steadier tables across the app.

Plus a round of polish and fixes.
