How to find the perfect poker mouse!

The best builders need the very best tools — the same goes for poker players. Nobody needs their mouse sticking when they’ve just landed pocket aces. So, to make sure this doesn’t happen, we’ve taken a look at five of the best poker mouses around.

Razer Imperator

Perfect for computer gamers and poker pros

Boasting high performance at a cost effective price, the Razer Imperator is a brilliant multi-purpose mouse. Sure, it might be specifically designed for gamers, but we’re sure it’ll come in handy for poker fans too. With pin-point accuracy, you’ll no longer have those heart-in-your-mouth moments where you nearly click the fold button by mistake. It’s also a smooth running mouse, so you won’t be dragging the thing across your desk — which is always a luxury. One downside is the lack of wireless features, but at least you’ll never run out of power, which is particularly annoying when you’re on the river. At £60, the Razer Imperator is more than value for money.

The Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX

Best overall for regular use

If you’re looking for comfort, the ergonomically designed Logitech MX is your dream mouse. It wraps around you hand and, quite frankly, becomes an extension of yourself. It comes with ball-bearing control over the top, which allows you to smoothly tackle any page with absolute precision. If you find your wrist twangs with pain after long periods of play, this mouse will help alleviate any niggles you may develop. In fact, its reported that users of this mouse experience less stress, allowing them to smash the opposition — perfect if you’re ultra competitive. Amazingly, the MX can work on nearly every surface; plastic, granite, wood and even glass (perfect if you live a glass house). With a low price point of £60, its generated a lot of praise on the poker forums. Ultimately, we think its worth every penny.
