About Poker
Most casino games put you up against the house. Poker is different. When you sit down at a poker table — whether it's a cash game or a tournament — you're playing against other people. The house doesn't win your money directly; it takes a small rake from each pot. That fundamental shift changes everything about how you approach the game.
In Pakistan, poker has been steadily gaining a serious following over the past several years. Part of that is the global spread of poker culture through online platforms and streaming. Part of it is that Pakistani players, who already have a tradition of card games like Teen Patti and card-based family games, find the step into poker surprisingly natural. The hand rankings, the betting structure, the reading of opponents — a lot of it feels familiar once you get past the initial learning curve.
At 1xbit, we've built our poker offering specifically around what Pakistani players want. That means real PKR transactions with no currency conversion headaches, payment through JazzCash and Easypaisa that every Pakistani already knows how to use, and a table selection that ranges from low-stakes games suitable for beginners all the way up to high-roller sessions for experienced players who are serious about the game.
The platform also runs live dealer poker variants — games where a real human dealer runs the cards rather than an automated system. For players who want the atmosphere of a real casino table without leaving home, live dealer poker at 1xbit delivers exactly that. The video stream is HD, the dealers are professional, and the gameplay is smooth even on a mobile connection.
Game Types
Not all poker is the same. 1xbit offers multiple formats to suit different skill levels and playing preferences.
The world's most widely played poker variant. Two hole cards, five community cards, best five-card hand wins. Available as cash games, sit-and-go tournaments, and multi-table tournaments on 1xbit.
Four hole cards instead of two, and you must use exactly two of them. Creates bigger hands and more action than Hold'em. Preferred by players who enjoy more complex decisions per hand.
A live dealer table game version of poker where you play against the dealer rather than other players. Perfect for newcomers — simpler structure, no need to read opponents, HD stream.
Every time you fold, you're immediately moved to a new table with a new hand. No waiting through other players' decisions. Maximises the number of hands you play per hour.
Small-field tournaments that start as soon as enough players register. No fixed schedule — great for squeezing in competitive play during shorter sessions.
Larger field tournaments with scheduled start times, deep stacks, and substantial prize pools in PKR. The format where the biggest wins happen on 1xbit.
Poker Basics
New to poker? This is the one table you need to memorise before sitting down. Hands are ranked from highest (Royal Flush) to lowest (High Card).
The two players to the left of the dealer button post the small blind and big blind — forced bets that start the action. At 1xbit, these are denominated in PKR.
Every player receives two private cards face-down. A round of betting follows — you can call the big blind, raise, or fold.
Three community cards are placed face-up on the table. Another betting round. You now have five cards to work with — two hole cards plus three on the board.
A fourth card (Turn), then a fifth (River), each followed by a betting round. By the River you have seen all five community cards. The hand builds toward the showdown.
Remaining players reveal their cards. The best five-card combination using any combination of hole cards and community cards wins the pot. Winnings settle to your 1xbit wallet immediately.
As a newcomer, play tight — only enter pots with strong starting hands (pocket pairs, suited connectors, A-K, A-Q). The biggest mistake new players make is calling too many hands. Patience at the early stages of learning poker at 1xbit will save you more money than any aggressive strategy will win you.
Live Poker
There's a meaningful difference between playing an automated poker game and sitting at a live dealer table. With live poker at 1xbit, you're watching a real person deal cards from a real deck, in real time, via an HD video stream. The dealer announces the action, manages the table, and keeps the pace. It feels substantially more like being in an actual casino than any animated alternative can match.
The 1xbit live poker selection includes Casino Hold'em and Ultimate Texas Hold'em, both of which are dealer-vs-player format games — meaning you don't need to read or outplay other human opponents, which makes them ideal for players who are still building their poker skills. You're making strategic decisions about whether to continue with your hand, how much to bet, and when to fold — but you're doing it against a fixed house paytable rather than an unpredictable opponent.
For players who want genuine player-versus-player poker, 1xbit's cash game tables and tournaments provide that full competitive experience. The multi-table tournaments in particular have become popular with Pakistani players who enjoy the structure of a competition with a clear end point and a prize pool. Buy-ins are available at multiple levels so you're not forced into high-stakes play before you're ready.
One thing that sets 1xbit apart for Pakistani players specifically is the anti-collusion system. This is something that matters a lot in online poker — players coordinating at the same table via messaging apps to share hole card information is a genuine problem on some platforms. 1xbit monitors for suspicious patterns and takes action on accounts that show signs of coordinated play. The integrity of your game is protected.

The Pakistani Poker Scene
Cricket has always been the national obsession, and at 1xbit the two worlds often overlap — during PSL season, the same players who are placing cricket bets during the day might spend their evenings at the poker tables. There's a similar appeal: strategy, reading momentum, knowing when to play aggressively and when to hold back. The skills transfer more than you'd expect.
What the poker community in Pakistan has discovered, increasingly, is that online platforms remove all the logistical barriers that made live games difficult to organise. You don't need a full group of friends available at the same time. You don't need a physical space. You just need your phone, a data connection, and your 1xbit account. The table is always full because players from across the country are there.
One thing worth mentioning for players coming from a Teen Patti background: the transition to Texas Hold'em is not as big a jump as it might seem. Teen Patti is a three-card game with betting rounds and hand rankings — the basic psychological structure of reading opponents and managing bets maps directly onto poker. Most Teen Patti players who try poker on 1xbit find themselves comfortable at the table within their first few sessions.

Get Started
Create your account with your mobile number. Verification is quick and your account is ready to use within minutes.
Open the 1xbit cashier, choose your payment method, enter your PKR amount (minimum Rs 500), and confirm on your mobile wallet. Funds appear instantly.
From your 1xbit home screen, select Poker. Browse available cash tables by stake level or filter for tournaments starting soon. Pick a game that fits your bankroll.
Select your buy-in amount, take your seat, and wait for the next hand to start. Winnings are automatically added to your 1xbit wallet at the end of each hand or tournament.
Never sit down at a cash table with more than 5% of your total poker bankroll. If you have Rs 10,000 set aside for poker, your buy-in shouldn't exceed Rs 500. This gives you enough sessions to absorb variance without going broke during a bad run. At 1xbit, you can always move down in stakes — there's no ego involved in playing the right level for your current bankroll.
Poker involves real money and can be addictive. At 1xbit we offer deposit limits, session time reminders, and self-exclusion tools to help you stay in control. If you feel that poker is taking up more time or money than you intended, please visit our Responsible Gaming page for immediate support. Players must be 18 years or older to participate.
