If you own a gaming PC or laptop, you can install the PC version of MetaTable Poker and then use Oculus Link to connect your Quest to the PC or laptop.
You can also run the Go version of MetaTable Poker on a Quest! While it simulates the Go controller which only uses one hand, you'll get 6 degrees of freedom, and be able to move around in the room.
You can find MetaTable Poker in the Go section of the Oculus Store, however you have to get there through the Oculus App from the mobile device you used to set up your headset.
The following directions should make it easier:
You will need your mobile device with the Oculus App on that you used to set up your Quest.
If you are viewing this on that device now, the link below should provide you with the option to open in the Oculus App. You can also perform this step in Chrome or Safari but you will need to log in to your Oculus account: https://www.oculus.com/experiences/go/1507202936002141/
-or- If you are not on that device, use the device with the Oculus App on it to scan the QR code below which should give you the option to open in the Oculus App. You can also perform this step in Chrome or Safari but you will need to log in to your Oculus account.
You should see the MetaTable Poker page in the Oculus App. If you do, skip to the next step. If you don't, open the Oculus App and go to the store but make sure you have Oculus Go selected since MetaTable Poker won't appear in the Quest section of the store.. search for MetaTable Poker in the Oculus Go section of the store.
Tap the Purchase button to add MetaTable Poker for Go to your library. The app is free!
Now go to your headset. The app has been purchased but not installed yet. This has to be done on the headset.
In the Quest, go to your library. On the left top corner it shows a picture of a Quest or a Go device. If it shows the Quest device select it and switch it to Go. You should see a pane for MetaTable Poker in your library. Select this and it should give you the option to install. Install it, and you're off and running!

MetaTable requires Oculus Touch. Our philosophy is that you should only use your hand grip controllers to play the game. With the exception of the Oculus Home button, the X, Y, A, and B keys do not trigger actions in MetaTable.
Here are some basic poker gameplay in MetaTable:
Checking and Calling: If you can check or call, MetaTable will place a check puck or stack of chips to the right of your cards representing the call amount. Simply grab that stack to confirm your call.
Raising: Place your hand over denomination of chips you wish to raise with. Move you hand up and down to change the bet amount. When your bet amount is displayed, grip the stack and throw it in to the center of the table.
All In: Move your hand all the way down to the bottom of your chip stack. An 'all in' text will appear. Grip the stack and throw it in to the center.
Folding: Throw your cards to the center of the table. They will catch fire!
While seated at a table, the menu puck to your left allows you to do an number of actions:

Private tables are a fun way to play games with a select group of friends.
- The organizer of the game may purchase 1, 2, or 3 hours using the lobby kiosk
- Once the purchase is made, the organizer will receive a pin that they can send to their friends. We suggest doing this through voice, text or email.
- If you receive a pin from an organizer, enter it in the private table kiosk. A valid pin will display the private table along with your friends that are already playing
- The timer for the private table begins as soon as the first friend joins, so the organizer can wait in private room alone. The timer will not begin until there are 2 players.
- Private tables do not use your MetaTable chip balance. Each player is given 10000 chips to begin play and may buy as many rounds of 10000 chips as they like. The rules on number of buy-ins can be discussed amongst the friends playing.
- Private tables are for entertainment purposes only. The chips have no value and balances will be deleted when the time runs out. Your standard MetaTable chip balance will not be affected by play at a private table.
