How can I be sure your card shuffling and random number generator is truly random?

We would like you to know that we cannot alter the outcome of the gaming as the software is hard-coded.

Also, we will kindly point out that our software is produced by Boss Media AB, one of a leading software suppliers to the online gaming industry since 1997.

As a publicly held company listed on the Stockholm Exchange, Boss Media must adhere to all regulations of the exchange and be held accountable to its shareholders. Additionally, TST of Australia, one of the top independent test firms in the gaming industry, has tested the platform that the CelebPoker was built on.
Lastly, Boss Media holds gaming licenses in Curacao, Kahnawake, Antigua, Isle of Man and Gibraltar. This would further indicate that the software platform and random number generator is truly random and secure, as it had to pass five (5) governments gaming boards. The Isle of Man is well known to be the strictest board in the industry.

How do I join a game and begin to play?

Before you can play, you need to choose a game and table. This is found in our lobby. After you have selected which game you would like to play, simply highlight the table selection and click "go to table".

You are automatically taken to the game table. Once you arrive at the table, you will have to choose which seat you would like to play in. Simply click "join" and you will be seated. You will then be asked how many chips you'd like to buy-into the table with. The minimum amount will be posted and you have the choice to take all or only a portion of your bankroll as long as it meets the minimum.

<--top-->

How do I know how much is in the pot?

You can move your mouse over the pot and a pop-up box will display the exact figure.

<--top-->

Can I request a seat change?

We are sorry, but it is not possible to request a seat change.

<--top-->

How do I get a history of the hands I have played?

You can request a history of your hand by selecting the "request hand history" option right at the table! We will present this information immediately following the conclusion of the game and we display the last five hands that you have played.

<--top-->

What happens if I get disconnected?

CelebPoker has gone to considerable lengths to ensure a poker environment which you can feel comfortable in knowing you are protected just in case you loose connection to the game server while playing. If this happens, you will be treated as being all-in, meaning that your investment into the pot to that point WILL BE PROTECTED and you will still be eligible for your share of the pot if you are to hold the best cards.

<--top-->

What about your all-in policy, how does that work? How many all-ins will be allowed?

All-in protection is designed to protect your investment into a pot when you run out of money during a hand, do not act in time, or get disconnected for any reason. We allow each player at CelebPoker two (2) all-in protections per 24 hours. Please read the end of this section for important information.

Going all-in when you do not have enough money to continue:

If you run out of money during a hand, by no means do you have to fold the hand. You may go all-in. This means that you cannot be forced out of a hand if you do not have enough money to complete the hand that you started. When you run out of money or only have enough to call a portion of the wager, you can go all-in to contend for the money in a pot that you have contributed to. All other action of remaining "active" players goes into a "side pot" to be fought for by them. The reason we allow a player to go all-in is because all poker rooms play for "table stakes". This is defined as: all money that a player has at the beginning of a hand will play during that hand.

Going all-in when failing to act in time:
If in the event you fail to act on your hand in time (10 seconds), the system will assume you have become unavailable to complete the hand. As such, placing you all-in will protect your investment into the pot to that point in the game. The system will track and record all of your cards and show them to all players during the showdown. If you win, your account will be credited accordingly. You may request a hand history at the table to review the entire hand for verification of the outcome.

Going all-in when disconnected:
We understand that gaming on the Internet can be unstable from time to time and that a player can get disconnected from the game server. Regardless of the reason for the disconnection, we will protect your investment to that point by placing you all-in. The system will track and record all of your cards and show them to all players during the showdown. If you win, your account will be credited accordingly. You may request a hand history at the table to review the entire hand for verification of the outcome.

***Important information to know***
If at anytime your all-in status is zero (0) you are playing at your own risk. This simply means that you do not have all-in protection and you are disconnected or fail to act in time, YOUR HAND WILL BE FOLDED AND YOUR INVESTMENT WILL BE LOST without any recourse whatsoever.

Although we allot you two (2) all-in protections per 24 hours, we will consider resetting your protection back to two if warranted. Simply contact
celebpoker@pokerresponse.com for consideration. However, if CelebPoker suspects abuse of the all-in protection feature, this may result in loss of membership or denied reset request.

Lastly, sending a request or receiving approval notification does not imply that you have all-in protection; you do not have all-in protection until you see this in your account.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

How do I leave a game or table?

When you decide you wish to leave the table, just click on the "Exit Game" button. If a hand in which you are playing is currently in progress, then we suggest you check "sit out" to allow you to leave the table when the hand is complete. Of course, if you fold your hand, you may leave the game at that time as well.

<--top-->

How do I minimize the software or screen?

CelebPoker was built and best viewed with a minimum screen resolution setting of 800 x 600 pixels. This will give you a "full screen" view and is what you are most likely set to now. However, in some cases this setting may not allow you to pull up other programs while playing.

To reduce the image to a "normal" view, you will need to set your screen display to 1024 X 768 to allow you the use other programs while playing. To change your current settings, you may do the following:

  • Click on the Windows Start menu button on your desktop
  • Select Settings
  • Click on Control Panel
  • Select Display from the available menu
  • The Display Properties window will come up
  • Select Settings
  • At the bottom right of the window you will see a section called Screen Area displaying an arrow-like symbol with Less and More on each side.
  • Point with the mouse on the arrow, and change your screen resolution to "1024x 768" pixels.
  • Once you have selected the desired resolution, click on Apply and then OK.
  • Windows will give you a preview of the new settings and will prompt you to agree with the new settings by clicking on OK (You will have approximately 15 seconds to choose before Windows will restore the original settings)


If you are unable to select a resolution higher than "800 x 600" pixels, you will have to contact your manufacturer and request to upgrade your graphic card.

Finally you may need to reboot your computer to ensure that the new settings have been successfully put in place.

Do the Celebrities really play?

Yes. All of our Celebrities are contracted to play exclusively at celebpoker.com.

We regularly check that the Celebrities are actually playing themselves, and if they are found to be not actually playing themselves they are subject to possible termination of their contract. We are currently looking to setup an independent auditor to check the authenticity of the Celebrities playing.

If you have not found what you were looking for, please feel free to contact us at our 24-hour support center.

Can I play if I live in the US ?

No. Celebpoker cannot accept US based players. Webdollar will reject any payments that they identify as originating from the US and any account used from a US IP address will be locked.
