Video chat has been directly integrated into the tables, which means players no longer have to open an extra video-conferencing app\/tool such as Skype or Zoom for real-time interaction, making the experience more seamless. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to that, players have full control over the voice and video functions \u2013 they can mute the mic or turn off the camera as they wish, to protect their privacy and ensure security. <\/p>\n<p>The new integrated Home Games platform also allows players to set up games that are not just limited to the local area. This means that even friends and online acquaintances based in other regions can join in on the fun, interacting with each other in real-time using the new video chat feature. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"connecting-people\">Connecting People<\/h2>\n<p>PokerStars isn\u2019t the only operator that has embarked on video-chat integration. A few others had tried this feature in the past, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.top10pokersites.net\/reviews\/888-poker\">888poker<\/a> being the most notable, having launched its PokerCam feature back in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>The pandemic has highlighted the importance of connecting people and providing them with a platform where they can virtually be together, socialize, and interact with each other face-to-face and in real-time even when they are miles apart.
