Social Gaming
Social gaming is becoming more and more popular with every passing month, so it’s only natural  for all the major companies to release iPhone versions of their Facebook poker apps to appeal to an even broader range of customers. Contrary to popular belief, those apps aren’t simply free play-locked version of their real money counterparts, as they focus more on allowing players to interact with each other and creating an atmosphere of friendly rivalry, which is reflected in the ubiquitous leaderboards and virtual items or other status indicators, which can be purchased using in-game currency.

This makes those apps a perfect environment for poker beginners to learn the basic rules of the game and work on implementing basic strategies at the tables – and even if you’re an intermediate or experienced player, you might want to simply seat back and relax without putting your hard earned money on the line. Finding a game isn’t all that hard since some of those social poker networks actually have more traffic than the major real money sites. As you’d expect, Texas Hold’em is the most popular variant of the game – but that doesn’t mean you won’t find any Omaha action if you look hard enough. This article has been written to provide you with a list of top five iPhone free poker sites and give you some idea as to what to expect at the virtual tables they host.

Zynga Poker (Free) - Available on iOS, Android and Facebook

Any compilation of free iPhone poker sites would be incomplete without Zynga Poker, which is currently the most popular social poker room available on the web with over six million unique visitors every day. The unique features of this app include full support for Texas Hold’em tournaments in both Shootout and Sit & Go format, an exclusive Jump Poker game with fast paced action and absolutely no waiting times and as well as extensive social networking functionality, which allows you to chat with other players, create buddy lists and invite your friends to play at private tables. As you’d expect from a well-developed social poker app, players can gain fame by topping the Zynga leaderboards or even surprise their opponents by buying a round of virtual drinks for everyone at the table. Running out of chips is no reason to worry, as players are free to transfer their play money to other people’s accounts and the Lucky Bonus slot game allows you to win additional virtual currency. Given how successful this app turned out to be, it shouldn’t really surprise anyone that Zynga has recently expanded its offer with a real money poker room, which is named Zynga Plus Poker and which is currently available for the residents of United Kingdom.

Texas Hold'em Poker Delux (Free) - Available on iOS, Android and Facebook

Texas HoldEm Poker Deluxe is pretty much the number two on the iPhone social poker market and prides itself in being the fastest growing poker app on Facebook. The player pool is composed of about 16 million users, which puts it on par with many real money poker rooms. Finding opponents isn’t an issue, which is really nice since the available Hold’em variants include full ring games as well as Sit & Go and Shootout tournaments. Texas HoldEm Poker Deluxe comes with beautiful, cartoonish graphics with a neat luxury theme. Player profiles are fully personalized with plenty of virtual items like gifts, snacks and drinks to share with your rivals. The in-game chat and an extensive set of emoticons serve to liven up the game, while the well-designed lobby and buddy list make it easy to navigate the tables and meet up with your friends.

PokerStars.net (Free) - Available on iOS and Android

PokerStars is pretty much the face of real-money online poker industry, but this particular app focuses solely on social gaming and comes with a competent package of social networking features. What makes PokerStars.net different from other free iPhone poker apps is the sheer amount of poker variants available here; whether you want to play No Limit Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha or Omaha Hi/Lo, you’re going to find plenty of crowded tables at any time of the day. What’s more, PokerStars.net allows you to check out the free play version of fast-fold Zoom poker, which is quite different from standard ring games and makes for an extremely aggressive and fast-paced gameplay experience. In the end, the only downside to this app is that visuals might seem somewhat austere, at least for social poker standards – but if you more for the games than for eye candy, you definitely can’t go wrong with PokerStars.net.

Texas Holdem Poker - Available on iOS, Android & Windows Phone
