Free poker games for Birmingham, online

Poker games in Birmingham usually mean a casino table or a game across town. Anubis City offers a free alternative: Texas Hold’em online, around the clock, in a pixel-art Egyptian city that opens in your browser. You play with free debens, there is nothing to buy, and no win or loss ever turns into money. When a seat is empty, a computer player marked “AI” sits in, so a hand starts even at two in the morning after a late shift.

Search “poker Birmingham” and half the results come from Alabama. In the game that can’t happen: in your profile you choose the United Kingdom first, then the city, so only one Birmingham is on the list. Sutton Coldfield and Solihull have entries of their own — pick Birmingham if you want your hands to count for this page.

Birmingham and Manchester have argued for years over which is Britain’s second city. The City of the Week race gives that argument a weekly scoreboard: each city’s score is the experience of its ten best players over the past seven days, so a handful of regulars can lift Birmingham above Manchester and even London. Students from the University of Birmingham and Aston who play between lectures count exactly as much as anyone else.
