Poker Room offer Hi/low games, Omaha,
Tournaments, and Progressive Jackpots?
The first version of The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room is just one of many to come
and is designed to fulfill the demand
of our Hold'em and Seven Card Stud enthusiasts.
With the help of our expert adviser The
bubbascasino.com Poker Room will continue
building the site not to become the biggest
poker room on the internet, but rather
the finest in quality, security, reliability
and community activity.
Not only do we plan to provide a tournament
platform, special progressive jackpot
programs and more games, but also we will
continue to aggressively expand The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room with new innovative ideas and
game products. We have a lot coming to
The bubbascasino.com Poker Room!
What kind of computer
do I need?
We recommend a Pentium 133 MHz with a
minimum of 25 MB available on your hard
drive and 64 MB RAM (internal memory).
Operating system: Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP.

running.

screen setting?
To enjoy the full impact of the The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room environment we recommend a
minimum screen resolution of 800 X 600
and 256 colors. If you play on a lower
resolution screen such as 640x480 pixels
you will have to scroll to use the game.
Does your software
support Macintosh?
No, Macintosh is not supported at this
moment, we are in the process of developing
a Macintosh version of the software however.
Stay tuned for more.
I have a 21-inch display.
Can I get the casino in full screen size?
Yes, you can select the full screen mode
from the options menu in the The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room lobby.
Can I see what the
game looks like before I join or deposit
any money?
Absolutely! In fact you can even play
for FREE!
Simply download the free software and
set up an account. You do not need to
deposit any money in order to observe
or join our beta practice games. However,
you are asked to provide the correct information
in your account.
You only have to deposit money when you
want to play the games for real money.
After you have created your account, you
will be able to look around the lobby
area and go to tables.
Will I be secure playing
at The bubbascasino.com Poker Room?
It is important that you are protected
from undesirable player tactics such as
team play (collusion) or any other sort
of undesirable activity. The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room uses reliable security features
that were developed specifically for poker,
and we are committed to do everything
we can to protect your play. Although
we continually monitor games both with
automatic systems and live support personnel,
you can help by contacting us (support@bubbascasino.com)
if at any time you suspect that one or
more players is colluding or otherwise
violating site rules.
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
provided by Boss Media AB, one of the
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 shareholders. Additionally,
TST of Australia, one of the top independent
test firms in the gaming industry, has
tested the platform that the The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room was built on.
Lastly, Boss Media clients hold 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.
Is this legal in my
area?
You MUST be 18 year of age or older to
play with The bubbascasino.com Poker Room.
Please beware, playing poker online may
or may not be legal in your jurisdiction.
You should check the laws of the area
in which you live before playing poker
online.

How do I change my
nickname, username, and password, address
information?
You are free to change your personal information
anytime you wish. To change any personal
information, click on Personal Information
from the The bubbascasino.com Poker Room
lobby. Change the desired information.
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.
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.
Can I request a seat
change?
We are sorry, but it is not possible to
request a seat change.
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.
What happens if I
get disconnected?
The bubbascasino.com Poker Room 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.
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 The bubbascasino.com
Poker Room 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 one (1) all-in protections
per 24 hours, we will consider resetting
your protection back if warranted. Simply
contact support@bubbascasino.com for consideration.
However, if The bubbascasino.com Poker
Room 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.
How do I minimize
the software or screen?
The bubbascasino.com Poker Room 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.
