Software – New Features

Play poker online with our award-winning software

Así de fácil. Intuitive. Plenty of personalization and customization options. Our desktop and mobile clients offer an easy way to find any kind of online poker you may want to play. And there"s always a seat open.

Read on to take a look at our poker software in detail, or download it to get started.

Crear la cuenta

Once you've downloaded the desktop client and/or mobile app, you'll need to create a Stars Account. This includes the screen name that will be displayed when you play, so choose carefully. You'll be prompted to create your account the first time you launch the software, so simply follow the on-screen instructions to set up your account.

You don’t need to deposit any money to create an account, and will be able to play a huge range of free-to-play poker games using Play Money Chips. Si estás preparado para jugar con dinero real, no te olvides de echar un vistazo a nuestra increíble oferta por primer depósito.

The Poker Table

You can personalize your playing experience in any number of ways (see the ‘Features ’ menu below for more), but all poker table layouts contain the same features. In addition to a virtual table where cards are dealt and chips placed, buttons and sliders allow you to easily select the actions you wish to take (e.g. 'check', 'call', 'fold') or how much you wish to raise.

The Lobby

Click the ‘All Games’ tab to explore the Lobby and find the exact game you want to play, any time of day or night. Tools, Settings and more can be found along the right-hand side, while the tabs along the top help you find the type of poker game you want to play.

Quick Seat

This gives you easy access to our most popular games without having to spend time choosing which table to play at. Simply click the Quick Seat tab and select the style of poker you want to play. Pick your buy-in and then you'll go directly to a table with an available seat.

Jugar gratis

You can download the game software and start playing Texas Hold’em and other games for free right now. We have more free-to-play tables than any other site, so you can try out everything we have to offer for free. To start playing now, download the game software and select the ‘Play Money’ option.

Ingreso de fondos en tu cuenta

Visit the Cashier in either the desktop software or the mobile app to deposit or withdraw funds from your Stars Account. You can also buy Play Money Chips, manage currencies, view your transaction history and more from within the Cashier.

Reglas

Learn the rules of poker, as well as the hierarchy of poker hands that applies to most forms of poker. You’ll also find tips to improve your strategy and details of our free Poker School, giving you an even bigger edge on the competition.

Partidas regulares

Cash games, also known as ring games, are available in many different poker variations, from Texas Hold 'em to Omaha, Stud, Draw and many more. Join any time. Play as long as you like. Leave at any point. Different tables have different minimum/maximum buy-in amounts, depending on the size of the blinds.

Zoom

This fast-paced format - available in ring games and tournaments - is the quickest online poker experience anywhere online. When you play Zoom poker, you'll join a pool of players, each switching between tables after every hand. ¿No te gustan tus cartas? Just click ‘Fast Fold’ and you’ll be dealt another straight away, at a different table with different players.

Torneos programados

These tournaments start at a fixed time, although often have a period of ‘late registration’ when you can register to play after they’ve begun. Muchos torneos programados tienen un premio acumulado garantizado (como el US$1.000.000 garantizado del Sunday Million), que te da una idea de cuánto podrías ganar.

Unlike Cash Games, in a tournament each player buys in for a set amount of money and plays until they are eliminated from the tournament. The players who last the longest end up with the biggest prizes, with the winner usually scooping the biggest prize of all. Read more about Tournaments, or find a tourney to play.

Other Tournament Types

We offer a huge range of different tournament types.

Sit & Go’s begin as soon as the required number of players have registered, whether that’s 6, 9, 18, 100 or more, rather than at a scheduled time.

Los torneos Spin & Go son torneos Sit & Go rápidos de tres jugadores, en los que el ganador se lo lleva todo. With a randomized prize pool, you can win anything from 2-10,000 times your buy-in.

KO Poker tournaments have a regular prize pool as well as a bounty on each player’s head, which can only be won by knocking them out.

Explore our client to find even more fun ways to play. Whatever you’re in the mood for, our huge player base and wide choice of tournament types means you won’t be waiting long for a great tournament to start.

Home Games

Who's the best poker player among your friends and family? Set up your own private poker club with Home Games and find out. Free-to-use and available for both play chips and real money, Home Games lets you create your own tournament schedules, set up cash games, and challenge those closest to you on customizable Leader Boards.

Multimesa

Playing on multiple tables is easy with our software (explore 'Options, Features and Customization' below for tips on multi-tabling screen layouts). No obstante, los jugadores que decidan participar en varias mesas de partidas regulares a la vez deberán limitar la cantidad de mesas en las que juegan a un número que les permita actuar sin cometer errores en un período razonable de tiempo. While some poker decisions take longer than others, as a matter of courtesy it is inappropriate to frequently keep others waiting due to attention being focused elsewhere.

Es posible que aquellos jugadores que tardan más tiempo del debido en actuar reciban una solicitud para que aumenten la velocidad de juego. If slow play continues, they may be limited to playing fewer tables concurrently.  Table limits may be increased again by acting sufficiently faster over a month-long period.

A la inversa, a aquellos jugadores que de forma frecuente jueguen el número máximo permitido de mesas y actúen significativamente más rápido de lo normal, se les permitirá jugar en más mesas al mismo tiempo.

Todos los aumentos y reducciones del número de mesas se realizarán basándose en estadísticas que calculan el promedio de tiempo que tarda en actuar un jugador durante un período de tiempo de un mes. Table limits are not increased due to player requests.

Opciones de sesión

Easily manage all your tables at once with our Session Options. Verás un pequeño ícono en cada una de tus mesas que te permite acceder fácilmente al menú de "Opciones de sesión". From there you can make decisions that impact all open tables at once. For example, you can sit out, sit out the next big blind, resume play, or even to end your session gracefully by sitting out the next big blind on all tables, then closing them.

Obligaciones de la entrada

La implementación de esta función pretende reducir el número de jugadores que abandonan una mesa y evitar que cambien de lugar constantemente. Esto permitirá a los jugadores concentrarse en jugar al poker, más que en buscar de forma constante nuevas mesas y contrincantes.

La mayoría de los jugadores nunca se verán afectados por las obligaciones de la entrada. Están destinadas a un pequeño porcentaje de jugadores de partidas regulares y Zoom que frecuentemente a) compran la entrada por un monto menor al máximo, b) juegan algunas manos, c) abandonan la mesa con una pila mayor de la que trajeron a la mesa, y d) se sientan en una mesa similar con una pila más pequeña de la que tenían cuando abandonaron la mesa anterior.

Los jugadores que se comporten de esta manera más de ocho veces en un período de 20 horas (cuatro veces en partidas Zoom) deberán comprar una entrada por un mínimo más alto (generalmente del tamaño de la pila que tenían en la mesa en la que estuvieron anteriormente). When your minimum buy-in is modified by an obligation for a Zoom pool, you will only be allowed to buy in to one entry at a time, but you will be able to buy-in as many times as you normally would.

Esto de ningún modo impide que los jugadores compren la entrada mínima en la cantidad de mesas que deseen, en caso de que no tengan obligaciones activas. Además, las obligaciones nunca exigirán que compres la entrada por un monto superior a la entrada máxima predeterminada para la mesa a la que te estás uniendo.

Using Filters

Use filters in our software to instantly find exactly what you're looking for. Partidas regulares. Zoom. Torneos. All these can be filtered by game type or buy-in/stakes, while tournaments may also be filtered by game speed or variant (such as rebuy, satellite, etc). You can search all tournaments by typing keywords into a search box. You can also 'Hide Full Tables' to only view games with seats open, or preface a keyword with a minus (-) sign to hide them from search results. For example, to hide Turbo events, simply type '-Turbo'.

Filters can be saved in our desktop software, so your preferences will be remembered next time you log-in.

Customize Your Layout

Create your perfect online poker environment with our customizable layouts. In the desktop client, visit the 'Settings' menu to choose between filter/tab controls, adjust the font and font size of text in the client, and even set your own color-coding for tournament types.

The 'Settings' menus in the desktop software also allow for fine tuning of your gaming experience. Tweak everything from the overall table theme (there are 17 from which to choose) to backgrounds, card backs, animations, seat preferences, hotkeys and bet slider options. Right-click on the table itself to change the felt color. You can change your settings whenever you like, so feel free to experiment and find your ideal set-up. You can also choose a player avatar within the 'Settings' menus. Pick an image from the image gallery, or upload your own through the 'Custom Image' option.

To re-size a table window in the desktop client, simply click-and-drag the edge of the window as you would any other window on your screen. The maximum size of the table window is 1.6 times the default size for that theme, while the smallest size is dictated by the limitations of graphics to keep information such as player names, chips, etc, readable on-screen.

When playing on multiple tables you may choose how your tables are arranged, as follows:

Tile Tables: tiles all open tables at the maximum possible size without any overlap (unless there are more tables open than your monitor can support without overlap).

Cascade Tables: cascades all open tables at an offset equivalent to the Windows title bar (usually 32 pixels).

Stack Tables: stacks all open tables on top of one another, with no overlap.

Go to 'Settings' in the desktop software to customize and save your table display settings.

Teclas de acceso rápido

Create your own shortcuts and make multi-tabling an easier experience with Hotkeys. You can configure your mouse or keyboard to make split-second decisions, such as fold, check and raise, via the ‘Settings’ menus in the desktop lobby. You can even change the borders of each table to highlight which one you need to act on next.

Estadísticas

You may track your statistics in scheduled tournaments, cash games and Sit & Go’s. Use the ‘Stats’ tab in the table’s chat box to see real-time statistics for that table, including the number of times you’ve been dealt in, how many times you’ve played your hand in various positions, and the number of pots won with or without a showdown.

Detailed cash game statistics can be requested to be sent to your email address. Click here to send a request. Statistics are broken down by game type, then by heads-up and multi-player games.

Las estadísticas de los torneos (si están disponibles) no figuran junto con las estadísticas de las partidas regulares. Click here to request a tournament history via email. During tournament play you may also track your progress via the dynamic Chip Graph in the Tournament Lobby of the desktop software. Stats for up to the last 2,000 hands may also be requested via the ‘Tools’ menu in the desktop software.

Ten en cuenta que no archivamos el historial de manos de los torneos de dinero ficticio ni de los freerolls, por lo que no están disponibles las estadísticas para estos juegos.

Keeping Notes

Keep track of other players’ tendencies and playing styles when playing on the desktop client by choosing the ‘Notes’ tab in the table’s chat box. Double-click on a player’s avatar to bring up a text field where you may make notes.

You can also select a player by clicking on the arrow at the top right of the chat box. This will drop down a list of all the players at the table.

The next time you are at a table with the same player, all you need to do is select the ‘Notes’ tab, double-click on the player, and all your previous observations will be shown right in the dialog box. These notes are stored only on your computer, so no one else will have access to them, and will be available to you every time you play this opponent.

Hand Replayer and Instant Hand History

El reproductor de manos te permite ver tus manos anteriores de forma inmediata haciendo clic en el ícono del reproductor que verás junto al número de ID de mano de cualquier mesa de poker. You can also view your hand histories from the current session in text form in the ‘Instant Hand History’ dialog, which you can open by clicking the hand ID number on the table, or by pressing Ctrl-I.

You can also share your baddest beats, biggest wins and most memorable hands instantly. Upload any hand and share it online with just a click.

Auto Buy-in for Ring Games

Auto Buy-In allows you to instantly buy in after sitting at a ring game table. Simply set up your buy-in preferences once, and the next time you sit at a table you will automatically buy-in. Auto Buy-In options can be explored in the 'Settings' menu of the desktop client.

You can choose the number of ‘big bets’ you want to buy-in for on all Fixed Limit tables, and the number of ‘big blinds’ to buy-in for on various types of No Limit, Pot Limit and Mixed Limit tables. To manually choose your buy-in amount, simply right-click 'Seat Open' and the traditional buy-in dialog will appear.

Jugarla dos veces

"Jugarla dos veces" es una opción que solo puede darse con aquellos pozos de partidas regulares en los que ya no es posible seguir apostando. Players may choose to deal all remaining community cards over two separate boards; the total pot is split between the winners of each board, awarding the two halves of the pot separately according to each board’s result.

If all remaining players in the pot have activated this option, the two boards will be run automatically when the betting is complete before the river. To opt-in to Run It Twice, go to the ‘Settings’ > ‘Gameplay’ menu in the desktop lobby.

Mesas Stealth

Certain cash game and Zoom tables may be designated as Stealth Tables. Such tables will be clearly marked in the lobby with the Stealth Tables symbol.

Los jugadores de las mesas Stealth, incluyéndote, estarán identificados solamente con seudónimos únicos que genera el sistema y avatares genéricos (solo tú podrás ver tu nombre de usuario y tu avatar). Se generará un nuevo seudónimo para cada mesa o grupo de Zoom al que te unas, que se mantendrá durante cuatro horas después de que abandones la mesa; si vuelves a unirte a una mesa dentro de ese período de cuatro horas, aparecerá el mismo seudónimo que tenías cuando te retiraste.

Los nombres de usuario reales estarán disponibles para ver en los historiales de manos descargables 24 horas después de que haya terminado la mano de una mesa Stealth.
