How to Add Friends on Zynga Poker?
Playing Zynga Poker can be more fun when you have friends to play with. If you meet someone at a table and want to play with them again, you can add that player to your Poker Buddies list. You can then find your friends more easily and join them when they are playing.
If you are wondering how to add friends on Zynga Poker, the process is quite simple. The steps can be a little different depending on the type of account you use.
How to Add a Friend While Playing?
One of the easiest ways to add someone is directly from a poker table. If you are playing with another person and want to add them, you can open that player’s profile.
Follow these simple steps:
- Open Zynga Poker and join a table.
- Find the player you want to add.
- Click or tap on the player’s profile.
- Look for the option to add the player to your Poker Buddies.
- Select Add to Poker Buddies.
Once the request is sent, the player can be added to your Poker Buddies list. Zynga’s current help information also says that players can send a buddy request to someone they recently played with.
Add Someone You Recently Played With
Sometimes you may forget to add a player while you are at the table. You can still find players you have played with recently.
Open the Recently Played With section and look for the player you want to add. Open their profile and select the option to add them to your Poker Buddies.
This is useful when you meet a good player during a game but do not have time to send a request right away.
What Happens With Facebook Friends?
If your Zynga Poker account is connected to Facebook, the process can be even easier. According to Zynga’s help center, Facebook friends who also play Zynga Poker can automatically appear in your Buddy list.
This means you may not need to add every Facebook friend manually. Once they are playing Zynga Poker and your account is connected, eligible friends can appear in your list.
How to Play With Your Friends
Adding someone to your Buddy list is only the first step. You can also join a friend’s table when they are playing.
Zynga’s current instructions say you can open the Buddies option from the lobby and use the Social Center to see available friends. If a friend is playing and there is an available option to join, you can select Join next to their name.
You can also invite a Buddy to your table. When you are already playing, selecting an empty seat can bring up the Buddies list, where you can choose a friend to invite.
Why Add Friends on Zynga Poker?
Adding friends makes it easier to find people you know and play together. Instead of trying to find the same player again, you can keep them in your Buddy list.
It can also make it easier to join a friend’s table or invite them to your own table when they are available.
If You Cannot Find Your Friend
If a friend does not appear in your list, check that you are using the correct account and that the person is playing Zynga Poker. If you use a Facebook connected account, make sure the Facebook connection is active.
You can also try looking through your recently played players if you have already played with that person.
Final Thoughts
Adding friends on Zynga Poker does not have to be difficult. You can add players directly from a table or from your recently played list. Facebook connected accounts may also automatically show Facebook friends who play the game.
Once someone is added to your Poker Buddies, you can use the Buddies and Social Center options to see available friends, join their tables, or invite them to yours.
