Almost every time a card game is played, there is always questioning and suspicion that floats around as to whether the dealer is actually shuffling properly, but the Bold Poker app eliminates those cheating suspicions by dealing for players. Connected via iPhones and tablets, the Bold Poker app runs entirely electronically, aside from the betting part.
Players are connected to the app through the tablet in which the cards for Texas Hold’em are dealt directly to the cell phones. Players bet using real chips and the Flop is then displayed on the tablet. A special chip is also displayed on the tablet, which can be dragged at will to indicate who is the dealer. To avoid any type of unwanted tension between a friendly game, it’s probably best to leave it to the unbiased computers to do the dealing.
