With so many apps available on the market, how do you sort through the store and find the iPhone gambling app that’s right for you? You want something secure and well-designed, but do you want something that lets you play for real money, or just a game where you can hone your skills in your downtime?
Those interested in finding iPhone gambling apps that will let them play slots for real money should check out 32Red and All Slots Casino, both of which are well-established and come with the reassurance that the site will be around for a while, as these two British sites have a large number of players. Both of these apps offer more than just slots, though, and include such other popular games as roulette and blackjack. Neither of these iPhone gambling apps is available to US players, however, due largely to restrictions in place since the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act was established in 2006.
Players who want an iPhone gambling app that allows them to play poker for real money will be interested in Switch Poker and Bwin, the two leaders in iPhone poker playing. Americans are again out of luck, as there are no iPhone gambling apps that allow them to play poker yet, although they can expect some to slowly develop in the future. There are plenty of poker apps that allow players to play for virtual stakes, such as Zynga Poker, the Apple Store’s own Texas Hold’em app, and World Series of Poker Hold’em Legend. All of these apps are available to US players as well as non-US players, and they all offer a career mode that allows you to track your progress over time. Zynga offers a challenge mode that allows you to team up with your friends to complete certain goals, such as “both players will win three hands in a row,” which allows for a certain element of cooperative playing that many other iPhone gambling apps neglect. This can only be expected, of course, as Zynga is well-known for being number one in social networking games.
Players who prefer to place their real-money bets on sporting events should consider Sportsbook and Bookmaker, two sites that have been around since the early days of the internet. Both allow you to bet on a wide range of sporting events, from soccer to hockey.
Regardless of how you want to gamble, whether for real money or virtual stakes, there is an iPhone gambling app out there for you.
