Set currency preferences and check the lobby
Follow the process in order, then check the room's current lobby and cashier terms before committing funds.
- 1
Check your preferred currency
Open Menu > Settings > Profile. The Preferred Currency control chooses your main coin and appears on your public profile. The client says challenge rewards use it unless otherwise stated, and rake-race rewards also use it. This setting does not convert every balance.
- 2
Check whether Auto Swap is enabled
Open Settings > Gameplay. Auto Swap can convert from your preferred currency, or your highest balance, when you sit at a table. Leave it off if you want to manage conversions yourself. The public controls do not establish a fixed exchange fee or rate. Check the available quote and balance before a conversion.
- 3
Filter the lobby before choosing stakes
Open Lobby > Cash Games. Check All currencies, Heads Up and Custom Games to understand which tables are included. Read the currency and blinds together, then the Players column. For example, 0/6 means no player is seated at that six-seat table. Use the separate Sit & Go's and Tournaments tabs for their buy-ins and start times.
- 4
Check table controls before playing
Settings > Gameplay has Pop-out Windows and Prompt Buy In controls. Pop-out Windows opens separate windows for tables. Prompt Buy In lets you specify how many chips to take to a cash game. Confirm the coin and chip units; the same number can mean different values in different currencies.
Currency units and client limits
- Settings and lobby controls were checked in the official client on September 27, 2026. The operator’s September 26 currency announcement is linked above.
- Use native coin units when comparing tables. A dollar equivalent can change with the exchange rate.
- Set a password to retain your automatic account. Keep access and verification questions on the account and cashier pages.
- Built-in table stacking and an officially supported HUD are not available. Pot-Limit Omaha cash tables were open in the lobby on 12 October 2026, so use the lobby's Variant column to pick between NLHE and PLO.
