Join Play Money games

In order to start playing with Play Money, simply follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your Stars Account.
  2. Make sure you are in the Play Money section and look for the Cash tab/button.
    • On Mobile, you can also tap Lobby (iOS) or the menu icon (Android) and then Poker to select your table options.
  3. Select a table of your liking from the list to be taken there without being seated automatically.
    You can also use the Play Now option after selecting the desired table to be seated automatically.
  4. After opening a table click on an empty seat if you haven't been seated automatically.
  5. A pop-up window will display the buy-in amount and additional buy-in options.
  6. Make your choices, press OK, and you're ready to start having fun at the table!

TIP: If you are using the computer version, and don't see the Play Now option this means the table is full. In this case, you can wait for a seat by clicking on Join Waiting List on the right-hand panel or look for a similar table by selecting Play at a Similar Table which is located there as well. In order to avoid full tables, you can tick the Hide Full Tables option located below the Stakes section in the Cash Games lobby (under the Cash tab).

You can get up to 3,000 free chips every hour. Once your chips balance goes below 1,000, you can refill in Play Money cash games, tournaments, and in the Cashier (if the 'Play Money' tab is available). Just look for the Collect or Free Chips button.

If you are already seated in a Play Money cash game, you can get more chips by either clicking on the chip tray or on Options at the top of the table, depending on your table theme. Then click on Add Chips or simply right-click on your own seat, which will bring up the rebuy menu.
