partypoker completely overhauled is mobile poker app on November 25th, adding new features and switching play to portrait mode, the latter designed to make it easier for player to play one-handed, which is how the vast majority of people use a mobile phone.

Players no longer have to turn their phone on its side to play on the partypoker mobile app thanks to the new portrait mode complete with better, more vibrant graphics, easy to reach and use buttons, and a completely new bet slider that is easy to control with an upwards swipe of a finger.

Other features include a vastly improved hand replayer, also in portrait orientation, all-in equity in Texas Hold’em games, and an easy to navigate SPINS lobby.

This first stage of the new partypoker mobile app rollout only applies to SPINS, partypoker’s jackpot sit & go tournaments. All the other partypoker games are still available in the app, but they do not have the new design or the portrait mode available. Next to receive the update, in early 2020, is fastforward, cash games and multi-table tournaments.

Introducing the Social Currency Known As Diamonds

Perhaps the most striking new feature is the introduction of the social currency partypoker is calling Diamonds. Players earn Diamonds by simply playing on the mobile app. Full details are yet to be released but we would expect players to be able to earn Diamonds by completing tasks or missions such as playing a specific number of hands on the app, or being dealt certain holdings, which is not too dissimilar to the missions already available at partypoker and other sites such as Unibet Poker.

Players can spend their Diamonds to enhance their playing experience and to ramp up the fun levels. One of the new mobile app’s features allows players to throw items at their opponents, such as eggs and tomatoes; it is also possible to blow kisses at them. Throwing an object at an opponent costs one Diamond and the item thrown has its own unique animation and sounds.

While egging an opponent who has just won a pot from you is fun, you may want to save some Diamonds for another new feature called Rabbit. Named after the term rabbit hunting, Rabbit gives players the chance to see the remaining cards not dealt in the hand. Did you make a fold on the turn with a straight draw and wondered if you would have hit your draw? Spend some Diamonds to see what would have happened had you made the call.

Initially, it will cost three Diamonds to Rabbit on the flop, two Diamonds when you’re on the turn and one Diamond on the river.

Other plans for Diamonds include new themes and perhaps special emojis and avatars.

The gamification won’t be to everyone’s liking but should prove to be a hit with the more recreational and casual poker players at partypoker, a large number of whom prefer to use their mobile phone or tablet to play online poker instead of a computer or laptop.

Matthias Eibinger took down the partypoker High Roller Big Game and banked $63,216. Eibinger’s prize would have been a shade under $74,000 but he struck a heads-up deal with Finland’s Samuel Vousden.

Vousden’s runner-up finish weighed in at $57,568, $10,000 more than the advertised prize.

All but two of the nine finalists netted a five-figure prize, thanks in part to 116-players buying in for $2,600 each. Niklas Astedt and Steve O’Dwyer were the first two players to dust off their chips; they walked away with $8,117 and $9,789 respectively.

Christopher Putz and two-time WSOP bracelet winner Yuri Dzvielevski were the next pair out of the door before Shawn Daniels and the Netherlands’ Daan Mulders fell by the wayside, the latter reeling in a $22,943 haul.

Brazilian superstar Bruno Volkmann’s elimination in third netted him $32,447, leaving Vousden and Eibinger to strike a deal and conclude this week’s High Roller Big Game.
