Read the table, play your odds.

A calm poker table above the clouds, with company. Every computer player has a name, a face and one habit that gives their hand away, if you watch the showdowns. All-ins play out card by card with each player's chances on screen, chips fly and bounce into the pot, and a coach rates each of your decisions in plain words. Replay any hand step by step. It's play chips only, no real money, and every game starts with a fresh stack for free.

FAQ

Questions

Is BreakHold gambling?

No. It's play chips only, no real money. You can't buy chips, win prizes or cash out, and every game starts with a fresh stack for free.

What are the rules?

No-limit Texas hold'em: two cards each, five shared, best five-card hand wins. Fourfold deals four cards and you must use exactly two, with raises up to the pot. Sixes Up removes the twos to fives, so A-6-7-8-9 is a straight and a flush beats a full house.

What is a tell?

A habit that gives a hand away. Each computer player has one, like humming with a strong hand or tapping the chips with a weak one. Hard players hide theirs more often. When a tell shows, the hint says how often it has been right at showdowns so far.

How does the coach work?

After each decision the coach compares what you did with how often your hand wins and the price you were offered, then says in plain words whether it was a good play, a close one or a leak. Open the history to replay any hand with those notes.

Is BreakHold free?

Yes. No ads, no account and nothing to buy.

Do I need to download anything?

No. BreakHold runs in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer. It is also part of the Break Casino app for iPhone, iPad and Android, coming soon.
