Free poker online in Johannesburg, with real people at the table: Anubis City runs in your phone’s browser, so there is no app to install and no store account to set up. Texas Hold’em is dealt in the Temple of Fortune for debens, free coins that never turn into rand. Blackjack, roulette, a 75-ball bingo hall and three slot machines are a short walk away in the same pixel city.
Egoli, the city of gold, spends a lot of its day on the road — on the Gautrain, in a minibus taxi, in traffic on the M1 — and the game is built for the passenger seat. Each poker move has 15 seconds on the clock, the bet slider has Min, ½ pot, ¾, Pot and Max for one-thumb play, and if the signal drops your seat is held for 30 seconds. “Quick game” finds a free seat; stand up after any hand and your chips go back to your purse.
Johannesburg is South Africa’s biggest city, but the City of the Week race doesn’t reward size: a city scores the experience of its ten best players over the week. That makes it a fair fight with Pretoria and with East Rand neighbours like Benoni and Tembisa. Choose Johannesburg under My city to play for it. The game is in English, Russian and Ukrainian; isiZulu isn’t available yet.

No. Anubis City runs no tournaments or live events; its poker is played at open tables you can join and leave at any time.
Who are the AI players?
