Fizz Poker: Free No-Login Online Poker With Friends

Fizz Poker lets you play No-Limit Texas Hold'em in your browser with friends, free of charge. There is no download, no signup and no real money involved. Simply deal a private table, pick between 2 and 9 seats and choose a blind speed, then share the link. Friends tap it and sit down, no app or account required.

Games play out as tournament-style freezeouts. Everyone starts with the same stack, and the blinds rise every 3, 5, 10 or 15 minutes, depending on the host's choice. The last player holding chips wins. Tables for 2 to 4 players, with up to one bot, need no account at all. A free account unlocks tables of up to 9 players, more bots and post-game statistics, with no payment or card required.

Bots are available for practice or when a group is a player short. Hosts can seat one bot without signing in, while signed-in hosts can fill empty seats with bots at five skill levels. Chips have no cash value, and there are no prizes, payouts or cash-outs.

After each game, the Fizz Score reviews every decision a signed-in player made against game-theory (GTO) models. Each move is labelled acceptable, inaccuracy, mistake or blunder. It appears only after the hand, never at the table, and serves as an advisory second opinion. Fizz Poker is a hobby project built by its creator, who says it is free because it is not a source of income.
