I do not understand why or how you can't have 888poker on an android tablet!?
I also have an Asus tablet with android and 888poker works like a charm! I know they had an software update on their mobile app, maybe you need an update of the app?

If you want to play serious poker in more than one table, tablets arent that good unless you can play with mouse. And once more, my question here, why you bought a device thats practically useless? You cant even do what you like.

Well i played on my phone on pokerstars , though all other sites as well support it I think, like ipoker network for tablet and so on. Full tilt played just one day and stop playing there and focus mainly on poker stars right now!
But if you play on iphone there is not a chance in hell you will be able to use hud and the hands you played will need to be retrieved by email, so it is a pain in the arse if you used to play with hud, but if you are a recreational player like me. Then go ahead and play with your phone!
Just use a remote desktop app that connects to your PC. Now you can play all sites on your tablet, and even get any HUD or other software you might use.
I do this when finishing an MTT, that is running late, and I want to go to bed. I have the tablet suspended about 20 cm in front of my face, fixed to the bed's headboard...

Does anyone actually use tablets beyond fucking about? They seems very impractical and liable to make mistakes as swiping a finger or touching a screen isnt as accurate as clicking.
That's awesome lol I did an update an 888 works now an they gave me some couple bucks an some tickets to 5,000 tournament 2 of them thank you.. don't know y I never thought of that before haha Thank you I'm happy man now lol,,,,
------------ I never seem to have a problem. Just tap lol just like clicking, an u can set up your tablet So u can tap it instead of using a slider... its sucks if your trying to do something an play poker The screen changes as soon as its your turn,, so if you go to push the play button on a song an your Turn comes at the same time you just might push the wrong button,, lol an yes I've done this a couple times I accedently call someone all in with a 7-3 off suit but ended up winning still think I should a lost that but hey a wins a with s right,,lol.

Pressing the wrong button is so frustrating, or even pressing the right button wrongly, is probably worse. You do have to be super careful on mobile set ups with multitasking or it could cost you your stack. My approach is concentrate on the game you are paying.

pokerstars is really tablet friendly. no really, tablet players seem to hit even the most ridiculous things there, with 2 outer runner runner flushes/straight being their fav
That's actually why I wanted to try a different poker site then pokerstars, but 888 is just doing the same crap. I keep losing my three of a kind an my straight on the flop to a flush or full house on the river. An they had nothing to call with, seems funny almost like they already know what the cards are gonna be
