Free poker online for players in Berlin

Want a game of free poker online in Berlin tonight? Open Anubis City in your browser, walk into the Temple of Fortune and take a seat at a No-Limit Hold’em table with real people. The chips are debens, the game’s own coins: you get a pile when you arrive, you can’t buy more, and none of them ever turn into euros. When the cards go cold, bingo, roulette and blackjack are a short walk across the same pixel city.

Berlin talks to the world in English, and so does a good part of this game. There is no German version yet — Anubis City runs in English, Russian and Ukrainian — so the table chat is often a mix of all three, and the player raising you might be sitting in Kyiv, London or Almaty. Empty seats get computer players with an “AI” tag, so a table never waits for a ninth person.

Timing is easy from here. At 9 p.m. in Berlin it is 8 p.m. in London and 10 p.m. in Kyiv, so your evening sits right in the middle of everyone else’s. Pick Berlin under My city and your hands start adding to the city’s score in the weekly City of the Week race, which is the experience of its ten best players. Hamburg and Munich are counting too; the rest of the country is on the Germany page.
