Poker 99 PC Game Review
Poker stars Steve Woods and Annie Duke are set to star in a new video poker game, Poker 99. This online poker game is the pre-sequel to Poker: The Game of Kings, which was a well-received online poker game. If you have played the original, you know that it isometric, meaning that it is random in nature. With Poker 99, however, the odds will be a little more in your favor. For example, players will now have a certain amount of chips that they start out with. This will be their starting bankroll. After winning a hand, they can then use this money to buy additional chips. So, if they win a hand and then use the money they initially started with to buy some more chips, they can double their initial bankroll. In fact, players who have spent time playing the game can now purchase a virtual card table - the first one in the game. In addition, this game will feature a number of upgrades from the original release of Poker: The Game of Kings. These include two brand new game modes - Texas Holdem Cash Game. In these games, players will be able to adjust the game's rules to suite their own skill set and style. For example, in Holdem Cash Games, there is an option for opponents to face off in an "American style" poker tournament. For those players who prefer to play the game using more than one table, this option will let them do that. Also included in the package is a tutorial that explains how to play Poker 99. In addition, players will be able to take advantage of the various upgrades that are available, including High Stakes and Low Stakes. Although most online poker sites offer this kind of upgrade, not all of them do. Therefore, players should always check before making any purchase. Most of these tutorial videos will give you a good overview of what the game has to offer, so players can decide if it is right for them. However, players who wish to learn how to play the game right from the start should consider downloading the Poker 99 PC installer. This will allow you to play the game right away. If you have never played the game before, this will give you the best chance of succeeding. Moreover, the instructions in the game guides you through the different points so you can maximize your chances of success. Overall, Poker 99 is a great game for players of any level. Its exciting action, a wide array of challenges and options make it something interesting to play. Furthermore, if you are one of those people who do not want to waste their time trying to improve their skills by learning from scratch, downloading the poker game to your computer and getting the software is definitely a good idea. It is also a lot more convenient than going to a poker class.
Hey guys, Ive been planning to do this for quite some time, because I want this game to succeed and the best way to do that is give feedback of course. I didnt just want to talk out of my ass, so I decided to play the game until I thought I could actually give useful feedback. I got into the beta with the very last wave of players, so I havent been playing that long, yesterday however I reached Immortal rank so I feel like I played the game enough for my opinion to have some weight and it had enough time to develop properly. In general Im very positive on A2 and have quite a few bad things to say about A1, but I will try to give reasons for everything I say and also give positive and negative feedback. So my way of starting the game was, I played the campaign all of the mssions except the hunger ones and hero draft until I had a full collection and then waited a little more until I reached Ancient rank so I could experiment in constructed without losing ranks. So I basically got the new player experience the way it was intended, even though of course Im not a new player really, because I played A1 and Im an experienced card game player. I will still give my opinion on this system. So here we go. The campaign: Playing the campaign didnt really scratch too much of an itch. A lot of the missions were super easy and therefore not fun to play at all. Thats kinda expected from beginner missions, but as a lot of other people already pointed out it also didnt really do a good job of explaining the game. Now I know that a proper tutorial is planned, but if thats the case maybe making the first mission a little bit more difficult might be a good idea so they dont feel like a complete waste of time. The later missions like the meepo one were well designed and fun to play, but we need more of those if campaign is gonna be a thing in A2. Also on another note: I actually had a good idea to complement the new tutorial. I didnt see any other game do it, but I think its a good idea and might be downright needed for a complex game like A2. You could have a menu in the main menu thats called rulebook or something, that you can open where you can read about all the game mechanics and keywords. I think this would help newer players a lot since often times you cant remember everything just because you played it in a tutorial once and playing the tutorial again is not fun at all. So having a place thats easy to navigate where you can read up on stuff you forgot would be super helpful. Hero Draft: When I didnt have access to the game yet I was kinda sold on the idea of hero draft. Now after playing it, Im a bit more sceptical. It looks like a fun concept on paper, and as a casual game mode it totally is, but it has several problems that Im gonna point out. First of all as many players pointed out, playing hero draft until you have a full collection in general is not a good experience, because on the way there you really get excited to play other modes. In general the mode does a good job of showcasing the mechanics of A2 and why they are great and what you can do in theory, but once youve realized that, you actually wanna start DOING these things instead of just theorizing about them. So basically you grow out of hero draft at some point, and for experienced card gamers that doesnt take long. Now whether thats a problem or not depends on whether there is a grind for cards in the full game ( which Im expecting there is), because that basically locks constructed away. Even if the matchmaking takes into consideration the card pools of the players, people are just not interested in playing constructed with limited card pools, and I wasnt either. This concept doesnt work, because if players like the concept of playing around and managing limitations, then phantom draft is likely where they wanna go. So I guess it all depends on at what point phantom draft will be available for new players. So the problem with hero draft and why it wont be a permanent game mode for most people is, that it lacks competitive integrity, and I think the crowd this game will attract will mostly be competitive people. I have a few suggestions that can help mitigate this problem, but I feel like hero draft just cant get to a point where people will respect this game mode and therefore it probably shouldnt be a ranked game mode. The first thing you can do is to improve the random decks created. I still remember having some really shitty decks and the game should generally make efforts to create a useful deck. I still remember one game where I played mono blue and my hand was complete garbage, to a point where I overdrew and had to struggle to get rid of cards in my hand to get to my items and newly drawn cards, because all the cards that were sitting in my hand were useless. Of course this is also kind of a balance problem, but if the variance in deck strength in general is too high the mode kinda becomes coinflip simulator instead of a deep strategy game. So this could definitely use some improvement. The other thing is the card pool. Currently the game uses a combined card pool of both players, but that gives the more experienced player an unfair advantage, on top of the fact that he already has an advantage because hes more experienced. This game mode matched me with a lot of players that had way bigger card pools than me and I assume this will stay this way for full release since people will leave this game mode fairly quickly and the ques wont be populated that much. Therefore Im suggesting that you change the card pool to only using cards that are in both players collection. This shouldnt be a problem because the starting card pool is big enough to play this mode, and it actually has benefits for both groups of players. The newbies dont get needlessly disadvantaged when playing against more experienced players, since they are already likely to lose, but this could actually help make these games less stompy and feel more like meaningful games. On top of that the experienced players that will likely only come to this mode for casual games, get a different experience from their play-with-full-card-pool-games, they get in the other game modes, depending on who they are facing and how progressed their collection is at this time. So that might make the game mode more interesting for them as well. Constructed: Im not gonna say too much about constructed, because in general I feel constructed is great in this game. Im mainly a constructed player, I played constructed only after reaching Ancient rank with hero draft, and I got Immortal rank in it yesterday. The quality of constructed mainly comes down to the game mechanics and card balance. I think the game mechanics were pretty much made for constructed play and Im also very pleased that you take card balance so seriously. Theres something for everyone, great ways to come up with creative decks that noone plays except you and have success, but also the "Im gonna netdeck an already optimized deck and play with it"-experience, that a lot of people seek. The good thing is that playing the game has a really high skill ceiling, which makes netdecking in this game not op, because you have to learn how to play the deck properly if you want to have success. Last thing I wanna say is that I hope you guys nail phantom draft as much as constructed, so theres a home for every type of player in Artifact. Mechanics that were changed from A1, and why those were good changes: In the next paragraph Im gonna go over things that changed from A1, and why these changes made the game better, because a lot of people still demand that specific mechanics go back to the way they were in A1, however I dont think there is a single change they made over A1 that is not an improvement, so Im gonna explain myself.
Lets start with the elephant in the room. The mana system in A2 imo is pretty good, even though it could still use some tweaks and Im gonna adress that a little later. But whats more important is, to realize why the A1 mana system was deeply flawed and imo the main reason why A1 failed, from the gameplay side of things. Imagine there was a card in Hearthstone, that read: "Destroy 1 minion your opponent controlled and burn 3 of their mana" and costs 7 mana. Would that be balanced? Maybe, Im not a HS expert. Would that be fun to play against? Hell no! What I just decribed to you Is what the average assassinate in A1 would do. You can say a lot about modern card games, and how most of them are dumb as hell, and I would mostly agree with you. But the thing is the card game industry figured some things out over the past couple decades. And one of those things is: Which mechanics are unfun, and therefore shouldnt be in our game. Mana burn is actually one of them (funny thing is mana burn does exist in A2, but is far from a competitive concept, so I guess we are in the clear for now). The mechanics of A1 are designed in a way, that the whole game revolves around this concept, a concept that is deemed unfun by the vast majority of the card game industry, and for good reason I want to add. It has always been an unwritten rule of card games that, if you can prevent your opponent from playing the game at all, then that will always be a winning strategy. I used to play a lot of old school Yu-gi-oh! back in the day. And back then cards existed in the game like " The Forceful Sentry", "Confiscation" and "Trap Dustshoot", that had the effect that you could look at your opponents hand and then take away one of their cards. All of these cards are still banned to this day in modern Yu-gi-oh! and the reason is simple: Looking at your opponents hand and taking away one of their cards is such a powerful concept, that it will decide games on the spot way too often and create an unfun experience in the process. And from my understanding, card game developers understood this, because this mechanic simply doesnt exist anymore in modern card games ( sure there probably are some exceptions, and funny enough Imperia in A2 is one of them, but you get the idea). And this is where A1 went wrong and why A2 is doomed to fail again if the developers should ever go back to the old mana system: The fact that you can deny a big chunk of your opponents mana pool by clearing all the heroes from a lane. As long as this is a thing, the game will always revolve around this mechanic, because the concept of denying your opponent actions is just too powerful of a concept to not use if its available. Sure you could design your cards in a way that this is not easily achievable, but why would you limit your design space this much, when the answer is simple: Just dont have your game have mana burn as a major mechanic because its not fun! Sure disruption is still a concept that exists in card games and its always gonna be powerful, because its simply impossible to design a game without having at least unintended interaction, that limit plays for the opponent. But it is from my point of view a consensus that the card game industry came to, that games are generally more fun if both players get to do what they want and noone gets shut out of the game. This of course is a utopia, not every single game can be a back and forth, but this is also an utopia that is worth working towards, and in my humble opinion A2 does a great job at that. And A1 just didnt respect this at all. A1 to me always felt more about shutting the opponent out of the game and therefore preventing them from executing their strategy at all, rather than letting the strategies of both players clash head on. And that is why I think A1's gameplay was incredibly unfun for the vast majority of players, and the mana system is to blame imo.
The deployment phase I think we all agree on is a straight up improvement from A1. Flops could be super frustrating and downright game deciding in A1 and A2 didnt completely eliminate this problem, but made some improvements to mitigate snowballing from the flop and those are very welcome. Deploying heroes after the flop also just got way better. No more random position for heroes, which I think a lot of people wanted, and rightfully so, because more player agency also means more room for skill expression.
Removing the random arrow was very important in my opinion, because this was just a source of needless frustration. Yes you could influence the arrows in A1, but a) this concept was not nearly prominent enough in the game to fight the bullshit rng that came from the random arrows, and b) even if you do have quite a lot of ways to influence arrows, it would still be randomly decided whether you needed to use that limited resource or not, which is still not ok. I dont think you would be cool with havin a random chance to discard your cheapest card and burn one of your mana at the start of your turn in A2, would you? I could go on my rng rant right here, but I will save that for later so lets move on.
So the shop is an interesting one. I already said, that I think it is an improvement over the old shop. But this is for me the mechanic, that still needs the most tweaks. But I will have a seperate section on how I would change the shop. This is about whats wrong with the A1 shop and why it needed to change. The obvious one are the consumables. People have complained about TP scroll randomness for ages and for good reason. Having one consumable that shows up at random and is like 10 times more impactful that the other consumables on top of also being cheaper is just straight up bad design. But also the item deck was very flawed. Not only that you could get crazy strong items on turn 2 or 3 if you highroll with an econ deck and decide the game then and there, you could also never really put high cost items into non-econ decks because they could show up at random and block you for the turn, which led to this really stale item meta especially in draft. The A2 shop improves on that by giving the player some agency over which items show up and therefore eliminate the problem of items blocking you like that, on top of the fact that they always allow you to run high cost items and then decide during the game that its not worth upgrading the shop because youre not gonna be able to afford pricey items. Also im not a big fan of the secret shop either, but ill go into that a bit later. The A2 shop still needs improvement for sure, but its already a sizeable improvement over the A1 shop, which was a complete dumpster fire imo.
The hero designs in A2 are so much better. Interesting cards are very important for a game to be succesful and A1 had way too few of them, which led to this super solved meta/tier list, mostly because the game didnt give a lot of reasonable alternatives. Now this is also a balance issue, but having simple cards also pushes this kind of development. Because the simpler a card is, the easier it is to evaluate its power level, on top of the fact that simple cards are also more boring to play with. If it was for me, I would probably have given every hero1 passive and 1 active, but Im fine with the way things are currently on the hero front. More complex heroes = more room for experimentation = more stuff for Timmies to do, which cannot be understated for a card game that wants to be succesful. But this also raises the skill ceiling, which is something that a Spike can appreciate as well.
The overdraw pile is also quite controversial, I still like it better than having no hand limit at all though. Havin no hand limit promotes this do-nothing-and-accumulate-cards-playstyle, that Im not a big fan of. For the same reasons items and abilities now cost money and I like that as well. I think having too many cards in a card game needs to be punished, because if it isnt, this will create unhealthy playstyles. The funny thing is, as bad as the overdraw pile feels sometimes, I even like this solution more that the standard cards-get-discarded-if-you-have-too-many-approach. Because artifact has items unlike most of these games, and your hand needs to be able to contain them. But I still stand by the stance that no hand limit is unhealthy for games, and this imo even apllies to items. Players SHOULD get punished for not playing cards imo, this also changes the flow of the game towards more proactivity, which is a good thing imo. The one thing that needs to change about the overdraw pile though is, that you need to see which cards are in it and in what order, but Im sure this will be a thing at some point.
For the last one Im gonna talk about a change thats fairly underrrated imo and therefore needs some attention, because it shows to me, that the devs DO KNOW their stuff about card games and are able to identify problems with the design, that dont get circlejerked in the community. Lets talk about why the armor changes are a nice improvement. One thing that the hero/item system in artifact brings with it is, that heroes over the course of the game can become unkillable behemoths, which feels really bad if youre on the other side of the board from that. This is still a thing in A2 by the way, which is for example why I think a card like Lady Anshu is somewhat problematic. The armor changes are a step in the right direction though. In A1 it felt like games were frequently coming to a point where instakill cards like Coup de Grace, Annihilation or Assassinate would become a neccesity, because key heroes couldnt be killed in other ways anymore, which is really bad for card balance. The armor changes are not the most important change in A2, but they are a step in the right direction. It always feels bad, and this still applies to A2, if you look at a hero and think to yourself "I will never kill this hero...", because it is either not possible or simply not worth the effort it would take to do so. This for example is my main problem with Tidehunter atm in A2. He is way too hard to kill for how annoying he is on the board, and that makes it pretty unfun to play against him.
Things that you should/could change about A2:
Lets start with the mana system again. I think the mana system of having one mana pool for all the lanes is good and needs to stay. I also think that items and actives costing mana is a good change, because these chages reduce the stalling, but also create meaningful decision, because mana is a limited resource and you cant do everything you want in a turn, so you have to evaluate, which action is the best to take out of your options. Its still a common opinion here that people want to take more actions a turn and that high cost cards should have more impact in general. A solution or maybe its more fitting to say improvement for this that I would at least try is: Remove the courier and start the game with 4 mana. This can improve a couple of problems at once. First of all it is widely known that the current iteration of the courier is a bandaid and that it will be changed in some way in the future. But even if the courier becomes a standard game mechanic in the future and not a card, is that really good for the game? The courier as is, is a pretty confusing mechanic for players new to the game. I doubt that it would be more clear if the courier is not a card anymore, it will likely be even more confusing even if there is a visual indicator for it. Removing the courier and starting at 4 mana would be in net the same as having the courier and playing an item every turn, which from my experience you do not. So this change would not only mean that you remove confusion from the game, players would also have a little more mana to spend and they would get earlier into the turns where they can play high cost cards. So it at least adresses some of the problems the players are having currently. I think its worth a try.
The shop is a pretty hard one to solve and still has many flaws. Im gonna focus on the one that is the most prominent to me for now. This also ties back to why I think the secret shop was a dumb concept in A1. I know this is probably a controversial statement, but I think the shop still has too much RNG. Having random items pop up in the shop, when theres so many items that are straight up hard counters for certain strategies is just unfun in general and should never decide any games. In my perfect vision of the shop, the shop becomes a toolbox for you to have at your disposal, where you can put items that complement your strategy or disrupt the opponents strategy, IF and only IF, you have identified that you need answers to that strategy. So what I think is, that a player should be able to design their entire item deck if they wish to do so, and further doing this should be mandatory at least in official tournaments. Now this would never be a good addition to be mandatory in regular ladder play, because it would just create an inconvenience for players to add items to tiers they know they wont be using. So autofilling the items deck still needs to be a thing, especially in draft because you wont have enough items, but the item deck should not be random if the player piloting a constructed deck doesnt want it to be and on top of that all the items in the opponents and your deck should show up in the deck tracker even if they were generated randomly, so that you dont get blindsided by a hard counter that just happened to be in the opponents item deck without you knowing. Easy examples for that would be hooked net for creep based strategies, jasper daggers for decks with lots of crowd control or demagicking maul for tower enchantment based strategies. You should never lose to a randomly created counter in your opponents item without at least knowing its in there and you should not be able to counter anything in tournaments unless you decided you want to counter this specific strategy, thats a tleast my opinion. Now I know this is basically a debate about rng in card games, which is obviously needed, but even then the shop will still have rng over which items show up, just then all the items that could show up were chosen by you, and theres still draw rng and in draft your deck is also rng, I dont really think this rng is needed at all. Managing rng is an interesting concept, and A1 wanted to be that kind of game, but I dont think theres a place for that in the current market, and even if there was A1 just didnt execute this concept well enough to be succesful. Hearthstone and autobattlers are somewhat successful in that genre, but the harsh truth is, none of these games will ever get close to the behemoth that is Texas Holdem Poker. Truly the king of all rng management games, it offers benfits to lovers of this type of gameplay that even Hearthstone can only dream of. It offers way more money to you for being succesful in it, while also giving you a way bigger edge over your opponents, if youre good at it, while also being quite fun. Its hard to compete with THP for any of these games, when its just the obvious go to for rng-lovers. And I always hear this argument "But when we remove all the rng out of card games they will just become chess!", and I have to say, that is such a dumb argument its not even funny. Chess is a full information, almost all-skill-game. A card game could never hope to get anywhere close to that! The only rng in chess is the coinflip at the start of the game, thats it. In card games there will always be draw rng, which already puts like a 1000 times more rng in a card game then in chess, there will almost always be the fact that you cant see whats in your opponents hand, and in Artifact, even with the shop changes I suggested, there will always be shop rng. The compasison between A2, which reduced the rng significantly from A1, and chess is so far fetched, you need to be a complete moron to think thats even somewhat close to being accurate. The only thing this achieves is, that it gets further away from being a slot machine, which is a good thing at least for me. Im not a chess player personally, because its a bit too boring for my taste, but I would probably play chess if you could choose your own pieces out of like 50 different options, because thats basically what card games feel like to me, and why I like them in the first place. If they are executed well, they feel like some customizable version of chess with rng sprinkled in, these are the ones I want to play, the bad ones feel like slot machines, and those are the ones I stay away from. Whether you lean more towards the Chess or the THP side is a matter of personal taste, both are excellent games. What we need to understand though is, for a card game to be successful, it needs to have some legitimacy when compared to these games, because at the end of the day card games are in the same overall genre of strategy games. So the best case scenario is, that you position yourself somewhere in between those two, because no game can become successful by being a shitty ripoff of any of those two games ( except Hearthstone I guess, because they were the first digital card game with a masive IP behind them...). And I understand, that a lot of you are afraid that A2 will become a shitty version of chess, which I think we are still quite far away from, but I couldnt help but feel, that A1 already was a shitty version of THP, which made me not wanna play it.
OK, this is all I can think of for now. I probably forgot some things and I will edit them if I think they are important, but this needs to do for now. I hope this is some useful feedback, and I will of course be here and in other threads for discussion in the future. I hope this game becomes a success, even though the road there is still long and rocky. Devs keep up the good work!
I walked in and was immediately awestruck by the ornate interior of the best casino in the world, The Barterer’s Lounge. Some players were walking around with suits and escorts while other people looked like they had not eaten for days. My cohorts? Adam, Bart, Carl, David, and Erin. We decided to have a seat at a “Texas Holdem” table with someone waiting to play. This guy looked like he had just snorted cocaine, after a 2 day bender on whiskey, but hey, “When in Rome” right? Weird thing is, this guy was in a suit and had five escorts. Five! Judging by the sheer boredom of his lady friends, this dude clearly hasn't left this table in over eight hours. The table seats six and the rules are very clear. At a new table: The only buy-in is allowed once at the beginning of the game. But you don’t have to pay the fifteen dollar entry fee in cash or otherwise until the end of the game. If you go out, only then do you have to pay the cash. We already knew this and we had plenty of cash for a trip to the casino. Woo! Adam had been saving for, jeez, over a decade? Adam’s been family friends since as long as I can remember. Who knows how old the guy is but he’s Bart’s dad and I love them both. Carl lives next door and we do some work from home but mostly sit at home playing some consoles drinking some beer and doing neighborhood poker with David and Erin. They’re an awesome pair. We all looked at one another and visually confirmed that we had exactly fifteen dollars in cash ready for the game because once you sit down, there is no turning back. Security has a person watching every individual one to one while sitting at a table. It is kinda creepy to have someone watching over you, but hey, I know the rules. Carl and I were already doing a visual check on this guy and figured he’s too whacked out to be a smart player in this poker game. But he can obviously afford the buy-in so we were very happy to have a few more chips to pass around between the five of us at the end of the game. “Frank, you ready?” Carl asks. “Yeah, let’s rock,” I replied. We all sat down together and the player at the table eagerly agreed to play a game with us. Once we all agreed to play together, one of the security guards powered up the dealer. The automaton started whirring up and a few sparks flew from faulty wiring that obviously hadn’t been maintained in years. But if it works for the house, it works for me. “Sir, this is a casino,” the robot said. I replied, “Duh,” and the dealer dealt our first two private cards each. Our extra player says “Hold on a sec, I want to make a side wager. I want to put a chip in saying that the old fart loses all his money on this first hand.” The dealer mechanically screeches “This is a side wager separate from the game’s pot.” We all looked at each other dumbfounded. “Does this guy even know the rules of Texas Holdem?” I thought. I looked at Carl and I knew that is exactly what he was thinking too. “Yea, I’ll call that for a chip.” We all threw a chip in. But not Adam. Why would he? He still has all his chips and as long as he doesn’t do anything stupid, or even bet at all, Kevin loses that bet. Our extra player was turning out to be a real go-getter, so I wanted to do some small-talk to bring him off the game. “Hey, My name’s Frank. Yours?” “Kevin,” he says abruptly between the twitches of his eyelids. “Hey Kevin, nice to play with ya dude,” I reply. Kevin immediately says, “Hold on, I’ll bet another chip that the old man goes under this hand.” Easiest call of my life. Everyone throws another chip in because old man Adam ain’t no fool when it comes to poker. All he has to do is not wager “all-in” on a losing hand and we all get a few extra chips at the end of the hand. We all toss in that chip. “Alright let’s get on with it,” Kevin barks at the dealer. The first three cards are shown and immediately Kevin wants to do another chip that Adam goes under this hand. We all call. I ask him, “So what do you do, Kevin?” He says with a straight face, “Well if I’m not here I’m on my jet going between my five mansions.You know what, let’s put in another chip that Ole Yeller flops on this hand.” I knew this guy was off his rocker and we didn’t care because everyone knows we’re all good for the money or else the “barter rules” come into effect. We all had visually checked our cash before we sat down. Well I don’t actually know about Kevin but I figure he’s good for it considering his escorts had all bought themselves Wendy’s chicken tenders from the food court on Kevin’s credit card. Play resumes and Kevin puts a few chips on the actual game of poker this time. Adam does nothing, no surprise there. But the rest of us call Kevin’s position. Who knows what each other’s dealt hands are. I only know mine. “So five mansions huh? Nice,” I say. “You do anything else for fun?” Kevin looks at me like he wasn’t expecting such filth to speak and disgustedly replies, “Well, I like my yacht. It’s got its own docking port for a smaller yacht. So you could say I’m into water sports.” After realizing he spent even a few seconds humoring me, Kevin shouts, “Let’s do three more chips in another side pot that the old man actually literally dies during the game.” We all chuckled pretty good at that one and threw our three chips in each. “Let’s play.” Kevin demanded. “Show the next card,” he snarled. As the card lands on the table, Kevin bets ten more chips that Adam goes all-in on a losing hand. Seeing as this is the first round of the game and we all had the same chips at buy-in, it’s a no brainer match position for 10 chips. Meanwhile Adam is stone-cold poker face and hasn’t actually put any chips in on the opening three. “Alright 15 chips on the play,” Kevin absent-mindendly said without even looking at the card. I noticed that he hadn’t even looked at his hand because his two cards were strewn out in front of him in the original place the dealer placed them. Everyone but Adam plays Kevin’s bet and the showdown resumes. Well, almost resumes. “And I’ll put half of my remaining chips on my initial bet that pops loses all his chips this hand,” Kevin states. And guess what we all did? We called the bet because we’re all keeping track of how many chips were initially given out and this was a no-brainer that we were all on the same pace of losing chips. Except Adam of course because he hadn’t placed any bets so far. He was ready for a few actual full games of poker. I know he had more than only the fifteen dollar pay-out fee for a single game if he lost. “And I’ll put the rest on my other bet that the boomer literally dies during this game.” We all blankly looked at each other and threw our remaining chips on that bet. But not Adam, why would he? He’s got all his chips from not even Adam’s old but he’s not on death’s door by any means. He lifted weights professionally in his earlier years and still does cardio daily. Naturally, he doesn’t look a day over fifty. “We have an ‘all-in’ at the table” the junkbot for a dealer said and an extra set of lights flicked on at our table. They were so bright I was getting a terrible glare from an heirloom ring I had on my finger. I rotated the rock to the inside of my finger and made a fist so the glare wouldn’t blind me. The robot dealer plays out the last card but it doesn’t matter to Kevin or anyone else because we’re all-in. “The player who placed the initial bet shows their hand,” says the dealer. And we all waited patiently. We sat together in silence for what seemed like forever. Until Kevin’s casino-assigned agent realized that Kevin was too coked out to do it himself. “A two of hearts and a seven of clubs from the initial bet maker.” The dealer continues, “There are no additional plays on the field for the bet maker. The player with the best hand wins.” I only had a pair of three of hearts and a four of diamonds in my hand. Carl immediately turns his cards over. “A pair of sixes with another on the table. That’s three of a kind.” We all split the earnings of the initial side bet amongst ourselves minus Adam. And since Adam still had a pulse we all split the second pot too. “This game is closed. All players must pay their cash fee for the round. If any players do not have the cash initially agreed upon to enter the game, barter rules come into effect,” the dealer said. We all reached into our pockets and put the fifteen bucks on the table. Kevin reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a ten dollar bill and a half eaten chicken tender. Kevin frantically searches his other pockets for any cash on his person. “Oh shit,” Kevin muttered as his face turned pale. “I must have spent my cash last night when I was more drunk.” I perk up a bit because I had no idea that there was even a chance to trigger the barter rule with this guy. The dealer asks, “Do you accept the remaining payment of meat to cover the remaining five dollars of this player’s entry fee?” “Hell no!” I shouted. “I want a million bucks, and one of your houses.” Bart finally chimes in and says, “Me too. Oh yea and I want your jet.” Carl agrees and adds “And the yacht!” David says, “Don’t forget the mini-yacht too.” Erin says, “I know you have a nice car, We’ll take that too.” Kevin slumps into his chair as the dealer asks, “Are there any other terms to this agreement?” We all looked at each other and Adam added, “And an order of tendies all around. But not for Kevin.” That was a bad move, Kevin.

What Is the Most Popular Card Games on Poker Sites?
CE Meh QQ has become one of the most popular chat rooms on the Internet. You may also have heard of it by its former name, Chateau Prague. The team behind this amazing online poker room has put in a lot of hard work and dedication to bring you great cemen qq software that will allow you to play poker online at your level, and improve your game. When you join any cemen a room, you are given a small code to enter into your online poker account, which then allows you to play against many other players at the same skill level as yourself. It is actually very easy to get started and make money from cemen Quay. If you are familiar with basic poker rules, all you need to do is click on the search button and type in "ceme qq". The results will be over 50 pages worth of different poker sites where you can choose from. If you are new to playing poker, I highly recommend you start off with one of the beginner poker rooms. These sites offer great beginner poker strategies that will help you learn the ins and outs of the game. When you first start learning to play, you should probably concentrate on learning the most basic hands or those that deal with both flops and hands. There are usually a lot of experienced players on these smaller tables so you won't have to worry about losing money unless someone makes a huge bet and there aren't many other good players. Once you've mastered the basics of cemen you can then focus on getting a better understanding of the actual game of poker by studying the correct playing techniques. That's where a lot of the fun comes in for me. There are three game variations of cemen poker. The full tilt game is the fastest paced of the three. There you must be able to decide whether it is in your best interest to fold, raise, or bluff your way to a win. Full Tilt is a lot of fun to play and the action can get really fast. The downside is that you must be able to manage your time well if you want to be successful at playing this version of the game. The slow paced Full Tilt style is much more relaxed. You will spend a lot more time watching the other people play than you will playing. This slower paced game requires you to be observant and also to have some idea of how the pot will break down. I prefer playing slow and medium paced full tilt games as it allows me to better determine when to make the right plays. I will also generally fold when I have already committed to the bet and I have a feeling I will lose money if I stay in. You can also find other variations of the game such as the mini-play or the Texas Holdem. Mini-plays are a great way to learn how to play without spending any money until you feel comfortable enough to move up to more challenging poker games. The rules for these are usually the same as regular full tilt games, but you may end up taking more risks because the stakes are smaller. Texas Holdem games are also a lot of fun to play and often a good venue to develop a poker chip collection!
Texas Holdem Poker Hands - the last round of betting, after which the players show their cards and the winner is determined. If two or more players have the same combination, then the player whose combination contains the second highest card (Kicker) wins. If no one has such a card (Kicker), then the bank is divided between these players. Texas Holdem Poker Hands: Royal Flush - five cards of the same suit from ace to ten - A ♥ K ♥ Q ♥ J ♥ 10 ♥ Straight Flush - five cards of the same suit in order - 9 ♣ 8 ♣ 7 ♣ 6 ♣ 5 ♣ Four of a kind - four matching offsuit cards - Q ♣ Q ♥ Q ♦ Q ♠ 7 ♣ Full House - three identical + two identical cards - J ♣ J ♥ J ♠ 8 ♦ 8 ♥ Flush - any five cards of the same suit - A ♠ J ♠ 8 ♠ 5 ♠ 2 ♠ Straight - five cards in order - Q ♣ J ♦ 10 ♥ 9 ♠ 8 ♦ Set - three identical cards - 8 ♣ 8 ♠ 8 ♦ K ♣ 4 ♥ Two pairs - two identical cards + two identical cards - A ♠ A ♣ J ♦ J ♣ 7 ♠ One pair - two identical cards - 10 ♥ 10 ♣ 9 ♥ 4 ♦ 2 ♦ Highest Card - five different cards A ♣ J ♦ 10 ♠ 5 ♣ 2 ♥ Learning Hold'em begins by understanding how hands are dealt and the order of play as described above. Of course, learning the rules of Texas Hold'em is just the beginning, as the next step is to learn a strategy that involves understanding what constitutes good starting hand selection, the odds and probabilities associated with the game, the value of position, and getting the last action during those betting rounds. postflop and many other aspects of the game.

For example, they don’t need a few dozen dealers to run a tournament with 2,000+ entries. They also don’t need to reserve a vast amount of space for such an event. Since it all happens in the virtual setting, once they have good software, they just need stable servers that can handle the traffic. For these reasons, rake alone can be a great income generator for online poker rooms and casinos. Even without players wondering off to blackjack and roulette tables, they can earn more than enough to pay for the operation and still make a profit. 섯다 Of course, this does require enough player traffic as the rake is only generated when there is an action at the tables. Lately, however, many online operators have also started to incorporate the land-based model, where they’ll offer some casino games right in the poker lobby. Nowadays, with many online poker clients, players are just a click away from firing up slots or jumping over to a table game like blackjack or baccarat. How to play online blackjack: Strategies There are plenty of different strategies for winning at online poker, but the best advice is to be patient. It might seem rather boring to continually fold hands, and Texas holdem can be a grind at times, but impatience is rarely rewarded, and it’s a good idea to wait for ‘Top 10’ hands. Eventually, you’ll learn about suited connectors (cards of the same suit in numerical succession), or just suited cards in general, which can be good starting hole cards. In addition, sometimes you will hit a set – or three of a kind – on the flop with cards which aren’t necessarily great hole cards initially. You’ll learn the nuances of the game as you gain more experience. For intermediate or advanced players, this is all common knowledge, but for beginners just learning the game, patience is a virtue. While various tables can have players of very different skill levels, and you do not want to play ‘tight’, or too close to the vest, using less risky play initially will mitigate big losses early on and keep your interest as you continue to learn. Eventually, you’ll also learn how to bluff, which by a series of strong wagers, can trick other players into believing your hand is stronger than it might really be.
I’ve been numb for the last 2 1/2 weeks and need help getting my life back....This is my first post so please excuse the length but I need support. I started like most, home game Texas holdem when I was 17. Nothing crazy, 20$ buyin. When I finally hit 21, I went to the casino for a weekend trip for my birthday. I was down $400 the first Two days and on the morning I was checking out I hit big playing 3 card poker and won my money back. What would have been a learning experience of losing, turned into chasing your loses can get you even. I went back 3 more times in 4 months and was up $3700. Shit this was easy money, WRONG! I spent the next 6 years of my life going to the casino maybe 4-5 times a year. I went with money I was okay to lose but always quit if I was up. We once drove 2 hours, sat on a machine hit for 550$ in the first 5 spins on a .25 machine, got dinner and drove 2 hours home. Over the last year as my income increased, so did my bet size and risk. I started to bet higher and would go to the ATM if I lost quick. I probably lost around 10,000 last year. At the end of the year I saw that and said to myself, you should cut back on the gambling and invest that money. So 2020 starts off well, money is coming in and Covid hits us all. I had money in accounts and made about 17,000 as the market climbed back up. The problem was at the same time, we were all in lockdown and I said f*** it let’s gamble at home. I have adhd, ocd and deal with bad anxiety and sometimes depression. All of which don’t go well with gambling. I started out playing slots and sports betting. Up and down small bets nothing to write home about. I started to play blackjack after a friend told me about it and the winning started. I was up close to 7,000 and couldn’t stop playing. I would play on breaks at work, walking the dog, cooking dinner, none stop it was on my mind. I started increasing my bets and would lose the first 1,000 quick and would chase until I was even or up, sometimes up to 6-7,000. I was playing on winning for a while until one night I snapped. I turned 5,000 into 16,000 and hit withdrawal. That night I couldn’t sleep, I kept getting the urge and finally caved. I was playing irrationally and lost all 16,000. I became numb, I could do so much for my family with that money and I f**kin blew it! Ever since that day I have chased. On two occasions I was down close to 10,000 of my money and got even to then give it all back. What the hell is wrong with me?!? I was back to a good point but couldn’t stop. There were sleepless nights, screaming at myself on the car rides to work, punching myself in the arms and legs. Then came the worst day, which led to the worst two weeks of my life. I again was up 5,000 in a session withdrawal button selected and reversed it. I would go on a binge and lose close to 35,000 chasing loses that never turned around. I have had suicidal thoughts and can’t come to tell my wife what I have done. I look back now and can’t believe I didn’t see the craziness that was going on. I couldn’t go more than a couple hours without at least logging on Nd playing a couple hands. I have a baby under a year old at home and they are my world. I feel like I have wronged them and have so much guilt. We have been together since high school and she has trusted me with our finances. I have contacted an addiction counselor and my evaluation is this Friday. I still have the urge but can not do anymore harm to my family. I can’t sleep and just keep playing over in my head all the things I could have provided for my family with that money. She can tell something is off but I’ve just told her work is stressing me. Can anyone give me guidance on how to tell my wife about my gambling addiction?
Questions for a poker variant where your guess is your hand
Hello there, I thought about playing a game of poker with my friends but instead of using a card set you guess the answer which is your "hand". I learned of the game from a german tv show (Duell um die geld https://www.prosieben.de/tv/das-duell-um-die-geld/die-regeln IT'S WRITTEN IN GERMAN!!!) The point of this post is you need questions to play it which are quite hard to come up with in the quantity and quality you need them to be. So I decided to bring it on askreddit to see if any of you have any good ideas :> In the following I will explain the game(since most of you don't understand german :p) You play after the rules of texas holdem poker with a slight difference. You don't get any cards but instead there are quiz questions( the answer is always a number ). Every player is writing his guess on a piece of paper . This is his "hand " for the round. First round the players start to bet or fold depending on how strong they rate there bet. Instead of cards being revealed every round you are given hints to the correct answer so you can assess the strength of your guess. Just like in poker there are three betting rounds but in this case they are hint 1, hint 2 and then the answer. Now an example: Gamemaster: How often do you have to fold a piece of paper (0, 099mm thick) so it's as thick as the Milky Way? Players write down guess: your guess 97 Now the players start with their bets Hint 1: if you fold the piece of paper 51 times it's as thick as the distance between the sun and the earth (220 million kilometers) 97 doesn't seem that bad you raise since you are confident (others bet as well) Hint 2: if you fold the piece of paper 103 times it's thicker than the visible universe (estimated to be around 93 billion Light years or 8,79e+23 km) You still believe that you guessed better than the others so all in Answer: 84 times You win (cause the others were way of ) Next round :> If you have any idea it would make me very happy if you post them (use reliable sources like Wikipedia ;)) and remember you need a question, 2 hints and an answer :3 Sorry for any mistakes and have a nice day
I've been playing cards for well over a decade now and I've been beating the game regularly for years. My father introduced me to the game when I was young and when I turned eighteen I hit the road traveling while working for a construction company. I'd play whenever and wherever I could all over the country. Been to every major casino from Foxwoods to Hard Rock and all throughout the west coast where I've called home for a while now. It's all the same everywhere I've gone though. Live poker players are TERRIBLE. One of the best parts about it is the fact that a lot of them will openly acknowledge that what they're doing is going to lose them money in the long run and they still do it. Often gambling for hundreds of dollars with only a 30% chance of winning the hand. That means in that specific situation you're winning 7 out of 10 times. And that's where I come in. If you put me in a position where I can be there when this happens then I can make us both a decent amount of money. For those who don't know, the most important part of being a professional poker player who makes a living playing the game is bankroll management. You can be the best player in the world but if you don't have enough money to withstand the downswings then you will go broke. Even Vegas doesn't win 100% of the time. This has always been what has kept me from playing the game for a living and taking it seriously. I've never had the proper bankroll or bankroll management because I didn't need it and it's led to some crazy situations. There was one stretch of time when if I won at 1/3 with $300 at risk I'd go play 2/5 with $1000 at risk. If I'd win at 2/5 I'd play 5/10 with $2000 at risk. This of course is a recipe for eventual disaster but it did provide me with a good amount of insight into the variety of players at different stakes. Surprisingly enough I didn't really see too much of a difference between people gambling for $100 or people gambling for $5000. It's all relative and there was always still at least one player at the table making MASSIVE mistakes. So I'm really hoping I can find some bored rich person with money laying around doing nothing. Or better yet, someone who is actually familiar with the game who might have their own stable in the Houston area. If you're the former then the way this would work is, you would give me the money to go play in whatever game you're comfortable staking me in and whatever profits I make are divided evenly between the two of us. I'm even willing to start at a better rate for you, maybe something like 60/40. The games can range from $300 up to whatever you can imagine. Mostly in the range of $500, $1000 and $5000. The higher the stakes, the more money we make. This is gambling, so the profits we make will vary widely over a short period of time but as long as we continue to make correct decisions while others are making the wrong decisions then our profit margins will begin to level out at a sustainable positive win rate. The following applies to Texas Holdem. Omaha winrates are substantially higher but the variance is overwhelmingly high. With $300 at stake my winrate is roughly $30 an hour. With $500 at stake my winrate is roughly $50 an hour. With $1000 at stake my winrate is roughly $70 an hour. That means that if you put me in a $500 game 40 hours a week I can generate $8,000 a month in profit that we can split and have a nice extra bit of change in our pockets. Luckily for us, there are plenty of games in Houston and there is plenty of action just waiting for us. This isn't even considering poker tournaments this could lead us to where 1st place is hundreds of thousands of dollars. I know for a fact I can crush these games man, it's honestly laughable how easy it is to beat live poker. All I need is the stake so let's do this! -Roy Edit: I guess I should clarify, I'm not looking for some quick Cashapp/PayPal transaction. I'm looking to find someone and build a relationship with them to the point where they are 100% comfortable with whatever arrangement we come up with. I really don't even care what it is. You wanna come over and hang out, have some BBQ with me and my family? Fuck it. I realize the ever looming absurdity in this sort of proposition which is why I'm willing to make sure you're comfortable and I also realize how much of a long shot this is but fuck it. Lifes short.
[Q] How to "test" an online poker game? - What data to collect quickly during play to check?
So for the last 3 weeks or so I have been playing "World Poker Club" I have never really played poker and esp Texas Holdem. I have not paid for the ap or made any in ap purchases - and that is the root of my suspicion. For about 2 weeks, play seemed pretty balanced - some days up, some down. into the 2nd week I was "improving" with a ranking score increasing and winning bonus chips. After hitting a running pot of about 1.5M ( play money fo sure) --- it seems like the win percentage is now way off. It seems that my first 2 (Hole) cards have a very low percentage of face cards ( again perception), and my pot started taking a beating. For example it is common to have 3 -4 total players, and I frequently go 10 to 12 hands without a winning hand ( even a small win -by looking at my cards vs the winner - even when folded). I understand that is more complicated than that depending on who folds - etc. So as a basic test to my theory I tried to record the Hole cards only for 100 hands ( so this is 200 card samples) - I was surprised to get an average 7.62 vs the deck is 8 - so pretty close ( values are face value with J=11...A=14). The game play is pretty quick, and trying to capture the Hole cards, ( & try to make a note if suited ) - as well as some data on actual outcomes was difficult. Not to mention you need a few sec to analyze the data to have any chance to play. ( part of the reason I wanted to test the hole cards first). Of course - and also, the non-payers - like me could be playing straight up so the stats from a cards dealt in the hole is correct, and the new players and paying player get a slight ( or more than slight!) advantage. So -- what would be a good methodology to test / prove that the game is favoring paying players?

This was hard for me to write I will include the Drive link to anyone who wants to read it there I'm 25 I live in PA here's my story.
I have my google drive if anyone would want that by any means just let me know ill shoot it over to you so you can have the DOC. also set to CONTROVERSIAL. Death to who you think you are Chapter one: The briefing If we want to get the feeling of the beginning we have to start from the real beginning. I don’t remember the real age but I was very young. We shall say somewhere from one to two. I got to spend time with my real father and that leads down a bad path. From what I was told, being older that is. I had gotten soap in my eye and I cried nonstop and my dad hit me in the face. Now, this wasn’t some normal hit or love tap of being out of order. This was a young baby with now a fractured skull and an innocent child that now will start his journey in life on the wrong foot. My mother took my real father out to court over custody and needless to say he did not show and my mother had taken me home safe from something every happening again. We can kind of fast forward from this point to about the age of four to five. My life consists of my mother, my grandfather and my grandmother. My mom at this point had brought me around a lot of people and for me being a kid I didn’t know a lot, but we never went around someone I shouldn’t be around. But then my mother brought this guy around. We shall call him Lewis. he was a cool guy we got along well with and with me not having that father figure around it was cherished in a way that not a lot of people will get. Towards the end of me being my five-year-old self, my mother had gotten married to Lewis. It was a beautiful wedding and my mom was herself, everything just seemed right as a child, happiness is simple when you are that age I guess. We had lived in a small town in a house that my mother had purchased around the same time as the wedding, also along with that was a few brand new cars. Life was good as a child at least that’s what it looked like. The next few years flew past I had a new father and my mother was happy just everything was right. Now first thing’s first I was not a super poor child or I mostly got what I wanted being an only child. But as little as I knew things were going to change and I had no idea. Around the age of ten is when things started to fall out of place and was a downward spiral until I started my new journey. My mother never had a good record with health but that goes for most of us in the family. She had suffered from numerous strokes and back issues due to a car accident that changed her life. Many hospitals and doctors’ offices had been visited with the journey I’ve taken with my mother. But we shall also get deeper into that. At this time in life, my mother was going through changes that I did not understand. She was sick and also trying to have a baby some time went on and things seemed well with my mother but something inside as a kid told me things were only starting and boy was I right. Around this time of me being nine to ten my mother had lost over ten miscarriages, I mostly don’t know the real reasons why that was but I’m sure if I wasn’t told correctly it was to make it seem like everything will be okay in the end. But many times I knew about having a sibling and sometimes it was just oh the stork or something didn’t make it, you know the things we were all fed as kids so we just didn’t ask questions. Finally, a miracle for my mother and Lewis happened. They got pregnant with my younger sister. That was a long 9 months with my mother for sure. But once my sister was born there were problems that I didn’t understand fully. She had been put on a machine that was attached to her heart, as a kid, this was terrifying to see someone you love in that situation because as myself-going through something life-changing likes that. At this age is when I started getting “Stuck in my head”. My grandfather raised me showing me to always be observant and have your back to a corner so no one can come up from behind you. At a young age, I was taught a lot in a short time. Because on top of my mother having issues and my grandmother was also sick at the same time with this thing called cancer that I had no idea what it was or how harsh of a thing it was. But at that age, I realized something was wrong. Wrong… I started spending time with my grandparents more and more and I wouldn’t leave their side. That’s when I had realized these are my parents and my haven. Now don’t get me wrong my mother is my mother and I will love that woman no matter what I say or do. But she also knows what I mean by this statement and as for most of you know that’s just how having grandparents is. At this time I committed my time to my grandmother though. Like I had friends and stuff in school but nothing meant more to me than going to see her after school or on the weekend just honestly any time. I was learning so much from her how to cook, clean, do laundry or even just something like gardening. I was learning so much at such a fast pace I was blinded to the fact that this woman, my haven, my grandmother was dying and I had not the slightest clue. In this short time of ten to about twelve is where I learned how to become an adult very early. I was on a mission and I had no idea. Page 1 Chapter two: The blindfolded truth In the time of me being around my grandmother, I have seen things people will never see in their lifetime and things that you couldn’t even process in your head. This section will be about my Grandmother and just my journey with a woman who was the purest person you could ever meet. The time of realizing my grandmother was sick I picked up even harder on being there making sure she knew I loved her. Around when I did start to notice was when she started losing her hair. To me, she was still a beautiful woman no matter how she looked because her soul was so pure you could just feel it in the atmosphere around you. You can see the sickness in her eyes, you can see the thoughts, the worry and the pain. But she never broke character; she never let us know how much it bothered her. Until one afternoon she had gone into the bathroom. She had collapsed and I had heard it. I ran to that door as fast as I could but it was locked. I had no response from her but I knew I needed to get in here. I knew this was not good. Soon my mother and grandfather came to help. We got that door open and we had many smelling salts planted around the house and this was a time we had to use one. As my grandmother laid there hopeless, unconscious and looking lifeless my heart dropped emptiness grew inside my head and my heart and my soul started to feel like it was being torn out of me. I had to have been around the age of ten to eleven when this had happened. It was all like a daze, something that wouldn’t go away as the EMS got there and they had stabilized her enough to get her to the hospital. Across this time frame this was very normal she lived at chemo or the hospital or doctors. The chemo at this rate had been burning her because of how often and strong the treatments were. My grandmother used to sit there and not be coherent or not know who she was or sometimes the grandkids or her husband. We all understood though. We all knew this was going to be a long ride or this was going to end soon and none of us wanted that to happen. She was progressively getting sicker and there was nothing I could do about it. We moved forward and did all the things we needed to do for her and as a family we were one of the strongest families around no questions asked. One day she had gotten a call or was at the hospital or something along with that nature and she was told that the doctor that had done her test reading had read it wrong and she was given the wrong treatments of chemo. (Leukemia lymphoma) Fill with info!). So for that time of around 2 years of treatments they were treating her wrong and with that kind of treatment being wrong they were just put here in a microwave and frying her. By this time there wasn’t very much to do. There was only one shining light of hope and it was this amazing doctor from Pittsburgh that took care of my grandmother. She trusted this man to save her life, as did we all. All within a month, we had to film a documentary with the attorney that was handling the case with my grandmother and that’s when we all kind of knew this wasn’t going to end well. After all the filming and stuff was done it had started to run into the holidays and man they just were not the same and you could tell. She had been in Pittsburgh at this time staying in a hotel room right across the hospital where it was filtered air and just everything was super clean. Her prepping had come to an end and it was time. The family gathered at west Penn before the surgery. The drive was quiet but I knew everyone was just in their thoughts as was I. I had hoped due to the percent that she had told us of making it through it all. Which to us kids was around 80 percent; you know something to make it easier on the grandkids to understand. We all gathered in this waiting room and the room filled with silence for a bit you can just feel the tension in the room and that’s not what my grandmother wanted. She wanted us to be ourselves, talk and be a family and we did it just to break the ice. We all know my grandmother was the one to break that ice. We all talked and the time we had seemed so short but all said and done it was time to go. My mother and I wanted to stay just in case we needed to be here. But my grandfather was not having it he wanted everyone to go home and relax for the night. Remind you if something happens we are an hour plus away. Well, Lewis had calmed my mother down to the point where we all went home. The night grew old and sitting in my room thinking she will be okay I'll just call her tomorrow. Now, this is where the nightmare became a reality. I had woken up early to dead silence, my stomach turning and head spinning, it felt like a movie a haze filling the room but not just the feeling there is. I walked downstairs to my mother making coffee and I just remember looking at her and I said I don’t feel right something is wrong, she also had the same feelings. Shortly after the phone rang, it was like a horror movie. She raced to pick up the phone and it was my grandfather. Mostly all that was said to me was we needed to get the whole family there as quickly as possible. We scattered and collected the family and drove my mother to make it there in around a half-hour to forty-five minutes. We pulled in and I had my great grandmother in a wheelchair. We rushed to where we needed to be in no time. As we got to the final stretch to see her my heart was racing hands shaking. My heart slows as we approach The room. I see these women in this bed that I had no idea who she was. I had thought maybe I had the wrong room or something. I just remember looking at the nurse and saying that isn’t my grandmother. She had gained a massive amount of water weight and she was attached to this machine with all these clear tubes running a tank and in that tank was the blood that was being cycled out and back in because her body couldn’t do it by itself. We were told she can hear but she cannot respond or open her eyes. A large part of me died in a matter of minutes. A cold shiver went up my spine rapidly into my brain and everything lost colors and feelings and it got really cold. We were pulled into another room to talk to the doctor about what was going on and what had happened and you can tell a lot of hate and anger went right to him in the room. But as we were explained she crashed the percent we were all told was indeed super low the real percent was only five and she had made it through that five percent chance. The issue was cancer got so bad it had taken over and this is where a choice changed the lives of many. One thing I will never wish someone has to do is to choose someone if they live or die. The switch of never seeing someone again, seeing their smile or feel the love from someone again. While they made this decision I got to spend a few last moments with her to where she could hear me. Things no one has ever heard but us two. Those things didn't let anyone forget her. I was sorry if I didn’t say I loved you enough and that I’ll take care of grandpa. I just don’t want you to go but it will be okay and if you can’t do it by yourself it is okay to let go someday we'll all understand. At that moment she squeezed my hand with all she had in her and a tear fell from her eye. I knew it was time I knew this was the goodbye that I had nightmares about sleepless nights. Shortly my mother returned and we talked to her some more and then the rest of the family had said their goodbyes. As I sat there in my chair in the waiting room I waited and waited and then the real meaning of empty had filled me, a ring in my ear it had felt like I watched my heart and mind get sliced in half before me. The room filled with silence again and the ringing stopped… She was gone but she had let go before the machine had been turned off and you could tell. Peace had filled the air for just a brief minute knowing she had never had to deal with the pain and suffering. But the anger and hate grew with the pain and my head was spinning and I just couldn’t believe it, I didn’t want to believe it. What seemed like maybe a half hour I was with my grandfather helping him collect her things and her from the apartment they were staying at once we had all of the things we had left. The drive had felt like hours and hours had gone by not much was said not many tears were shed either. We all had finally gathered at their house. Blank faces across the room, silent tears running slowly down everyone's faces. No one knew what to say. You can tell everyone wanted to comfort one another but you just couldn’t find the words to speak. Some of what happened is just a blur to me. The next thing I know we arrived at the funeral. Smelled of overpowering perfume, you can feel that certain people did not belong here. You can tell my mom was losing a grip on reality; she hadn’t eaten much, slept or even showered much. She wanted my grandmother’s funeral to be perfect and it was as perfect as it could have been. The day went on and it was our times to say our final goodbyes. The effect was kicking in at this rate the women, my mother, my grandmother, and my hero was gone. She would never get to see me grow up, graduate or even get married and have kids someday. MY life had felt like nothing but over. I don’t remember much at the time of burying her. I mostly stayed in the car. We had stuck around my grandfathers for a while every day in and out eventually he had won the lawsuit against the hospital and the doctor that had made the mistake of his life. I don’t remember the exact numbers but the set amount was a million dollars after taxes, lawyer fees and all that he still has a decent amount left. My mother and her two brothers received a good chunk of money out of this from my grandfather. Everyone did something good with it and did well with the money for the most part. But there was another turning point in life that we didn’t know was about to happen. Chapter Three: The distraction My grandfather is a hell of a man. That man would give you the skin off his back. He has also taught me about life and god and hunting just all the things a father would teach their child. My grandfather was in a car accident when I was very young. He was bedridden for some time; he worked down at the steel mill; he was one of the big guys down there. He claims to me that I was the reason he wanted to make it through the pain and suffering to live. He says I saved his life and I see that but little does he know he is what kept me alive all these years as a person. He was the father I never had. That man put his life into me and I’ve also done the same as best as I can. But when my grandmother had passed away he had felt an empty feeling that I will never understand and neither will anyone else in this world. It was his wife, his partner, his everything and she was just gone. He always had a good poker face but little does he know he taught me to be so observant that I can feel things in a matter of seconds I can feel things by looking into people’s eyes. But his poker face became a part of his life. He had gone to Vegas numerous times to play Texas Holdem and slots. He had gambled his pain away and no money in the world can ever take that pain away. You can’t replace that feeling no matter how hard you try. At this time I was trying to be around and be his grandson but I also was failing myself. I gave up on myself. So instead I started a new thing. I took my pain and turned it into healing others since I knew I understood people more than they thought I could do this. Well, an incident happened where I forgot my grandfather was in Vegas for weeks. We had talked briefly and he had some scrap in the back. I was going to clean up the house so when he returned it had some life back in and we got to make a few bucks because he didn’t want the scrap money. When I had gotten out back the door was inched open I had told my friend to go out to the front just to make sure they didn't run out the front if there was someone there. I searched everywhere I could and no one was found. His girlfriend he now had which was only like 8 months after my grandmother’s death. Which we will cover that soon also. But anyway she had walked in and had asked why I was there and I explained myself and everything went bat shit crazy my mother showed up, mind you she hated this lady. Some arguments happened and my grandfather called in the middle of everything and he wanted all the keys back whoever had one and none of us were to step foot on the property. A while went on and I and he hadn’t spoken. But one night I and Lewis got into a very heated argument and I had packed my shit and went to the haven I thought I had. Only to get there and have him look me in my eyes and tell me I’m not welcome there. At that point, I hadn’t had anything. I was failing out of school. My mother wouldn’t leave her bed. Lewis was out cheating on my mother because of how mentally unstable my mother was. Now at this time frame, I had been running around with the wrong crew. People who stole didn’t have a home. I was around fifteen to sixteen getting drunk and smoking weed and just not giving a care in the world what happened to me. 2009 is when I knew I had been around the wrong people. One night I had gone to a party just for a birthday with some food and a fire. Towards the end of the night, some kid had flipped the table and knocked everything off the table well when I had gone to leave I had picked up all the stuff being respectful and one of the items was a wallet. Well, I had turned it over to the owner of the home and went on my way. Several days later I had been with my girlfriend at the time and I had received a phone call from a cousin. Asking how I was and what I was up to. Now my mother had just gotten off the phone with me and had told me to come straight home. When my cousin had asked I hesitated a while and asked where. Well, she had said the school is only 100 yards from my front door. So we went… As we pulled in there were people flooded in the parking lot and the jungle gym all familiar faces. As the car came to a stop we started a conversation. The names of these men will not be named for this. They know who they are. I was asked if I had seen a wallet and I had stated yes because I did. I told him what it looked like but I did not open it. I had handed it to the owner of the home and he was there. He looked at me and said listen he’s telling the truth I told you leave him alone. Something was screamed in the background and after that it was black. I remember thinking to myself I was dead there was no way I was getting out of this. Eventually, I had come to and all I have seen was my girlfriend over my body and she was getting hit over and over and over again it had been over 45 minutes and the worst part about it is. I had a whole text written to my mom to come over to the school and call the police but as I was hitting send it when I got hit in my face. Eventually, we had gotten away and driven. I couldn’t move. I felt super drunk but I just kept hearing he’s dead. I just closed my eyes and next I was being helped out of the car. This burst of energy exploded in me when I saw she was hurt. I also ran in the house and went right for the shotgun that was always in the closet. But it wasn’t there. It was already loaded in the back of Lewis’s car shortly after my grandfather had rolled into the parking area. I had gone to sit in the back of his car and he had all of his guns with him also. Shortly after that, the police had shown up with 2 of the men who had assaulted me. The anger I had I told that cop and them you had 1 minute to get off the property or id kill all 3 of them and not think twice of it. He had gone to turn them in and an EMS had shown up shortly after that. I wasn’t worried about myself. I knew I’d walk away. I was more worried about my girlfriend at the time. Which ended up being a total joke? I had over 10 blunt traumas to the head, slightly torn iris; I developed TMJ in the jaw neck and back problems due to how much I was beaten. But something in me wouldn’t let it be about me. I just couldn’t let it be about me. That’s not how I was raised. Well, I never returned to school because all of them went to the same school and having to deal with 46 individuals in a small area was not ideal for me. Also yes 46 people now 3 days after that had happened to me. The person who had stolen the wallet returned it to the owner of it. So now something that happened to me was pointless I had almost gotten killed over some paperwork for the military and around 10 dollars in weed. Needless to say, the people who deserved what they got did get what they had coming to them. My grandfather and I started spending time together again slowly and it was something that I needed but also was just me masking my real feelings towards my life and the situations I was in. Chapter Four: Meeting darkness At this point in my life, I had slowly figured out how to deal with depression and what I can do to make time pass. I accepted that I meant nothing. So I focused on everyone around me. I tried to help fix my mother, my grandfather also looked over my siblings in the mix. I had a girlfriend different one this time. I was around 23 to 25 at this point. She helped with the things wrong in my head and she created this weird feeling in my chest like you swallowed a napkin which sounds stupid but it’s a good thing. She was beautiful no matter what with makeup, without it didn’t matter this girl was smoking hot to me. Her eyes and smile were pretty weird too but it just fit with me. It felt like I met the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. But here was the major problem with that. My stupid ass didn’t realize I was just getting worse by bottling up my feelings and not expressing myself because let’s face the hard truth of this world. We Men Aren't the Way We Should Be. It’s called being the stableman and the men that grow up without a real father have to be the man of the house for their mothers. But anyway sorry about that rant just if you’re a dude reading this I get it and believe me express those feelings it draws people closer. So anyway I drained this girl she tried so hard to help me and I knew she loved me but when I felt she was trying to step into an area that no one was allowed my walls came right up. So I didn’t trust her. I began to not care anymore. I pushed her away like I had done to everyone in my life at this point. But when I realized in reality I was losing her, I panicked and tried everything in my will to get this girl back. But needless to say, she was gone. The pain grew and my brain felt too big for my head, like if I didn’t talk to someone or do something I was going to explode. This next part is a hard one for me to write down on paper let alone put out there for someone to read so bear with me while I try to explain some things. There are a few times I had almost taken my life 3 to be exact. The first one was after this stunt I had pulled on probably the best thing that had ever happened to me. I sat there one-night drunk. I had around 2 bottles of Smirnoff 100 proof vodka blue cap clear bottles. I was down at the dam around my house. I was in my lifted piece of shit jeep just existing. All I could think about was I mean nothing. I have no one, my family fell apart, my girl left, I didn’t have a job, I didn’t live. I lay in the water and went under holding my breath hoping to just fall asleep. Something weirdly pulled me, it felt like the tide had tugged me, it felt like hey you can’t do this get outta here. I sat on that beach for 4 hours and cried my night away. I knew this darkness in my head was getting worse. I knew I had lost control. Several days had gone by and things got better again for a little while. I didn’t want to die but no one wants to die. We just feel that way. Days grew to months which led to me getting a job working at FedEx. Now at this time I was doing pretty good and had money for a car and a job. It was all falling into place where I wanted it to be. As I spent while at FedEx I loved the job and just hated who I worked for with the contractor there. I just bought a brand new car. 2019 Civic sport with all blacked out everything SI wheels the whole nine-man…I felt on top of the world. My grandfather was in my life everyday. My mom was doing good. She had moved and was living in Florida with this new guy who wasn’t so bad. Dude just needs to open up to her but that’s none of my business I guess, whatever mom. Anyway, life was making sense. I just struggled with the fact that my grandmother was not there to see all the progress I had made. Also, I wish the girl who had left me was there to see all the steps I made to make my life better. Now notice that the last part of the sentence I made my life better not myself. I tricked my head once again into thinking everything was okay. Well, the girl had come back into my life shortly but again disappeared which hurt just as bad as the first time. This leads me into round 2 the time I thought my life was going to end. The same spot I go at the lake to go into my head I was there just thinking about I was just sitting there and over and over again in my head I said if I’m gone all the problems tied to me go away. Mind you I never told anyone where I was but somehow a friend showed up and talked to me and realized how hard I was crashing and falling. I owe that man my life debt I can never pay but oddly he related to me and understood some of the pain. So once again we are back on this train of I think I’m fixing myself but little did I know this was only me getting right back into the mix. Several months have passed and I have gotten a new job. Working with driving again and tires now. Easy job I loved , boss , was awesome, worked with a friend and coworkers was awesome, so once again I thought I was on track again mentally and physically. Now I have a new girlfriend, a sparky character. I think I was more into the feeling of having someone than anything because I thought I loved this girl. But one night I was down bowling with my grandfather and I had stumbled over and caught myself feeling hot and dizzy . I felt like I was going to just drop dead. But I dragged myself to my car and tried my hardest to make it look like I was okay truth be I couldn’t see anything driving to the hospital I just kept saying I’m dying kind of laughed with my sense of humor like really dude stroke while bowling’s going to take my ass out like this is how I go out? Fuck me right now I haven’t touched this subject because it’s still hard to deal with on a small scale but that’s strokes I have had 4 in total by the age of 25. Also on top, I’ve had 2 mini heart attacks. The time I’m speaking of is the 3rd one I’ve had. So I get to the hospital walk-in and check-in, I wait about 10 minutes for someone to see me and tell her with half of my body working I think I’m having a stroke. I said to that lady I’m one of those people who aren’t in a rush when it comes to my problems, shortly after I fell to the ground. I opened my eyes and I was in a room with a laptop and the man was talking to me about some pill he wanted to give me. I thought I was dreaming or hallucinating. I just remember him running simple tests of lifting my left leg and left arm. My face was sagging and I just can only help to remember thinking all these times I wished I was dead and I tried to fix them and this is it for me. I can hear the man in front of me but it was kind of like the faint echo of a voice. He said something along the lines of whatever this pill was to clean the clothes in my brain but if they were not in my head there was a small chance I would die on the table in 15 to 20 minutes. I rejected and took a deep breath. I leaned back and I tape played in my head from when I was little playing in the kitchen with my shadow to the moment laying in this bed that smelled like death and after 6 days I had returned to work. Now the reason I think I had the stroke is kind of selfish but is the only thing that makes sense is the most recent ex, not the one who left me because I was fucked in the head but one more after her. I was so stressed out I had lost her and I was losing my job and just once again just my whole life crashed and folded on top of me. I felt like fucking have died over and over again one day after the next the problems pile the bills stack the car gets repo’d I have a room a bed and a computer. I was in my prison and I had no way out even though the door was unlocked. It was like I was drowning in air and no matter how hard I breathed in I was running out of time. I had one friend by my side and that was my choice. I had pushed everyone away. I started smoking cigarettes again pack or 2 a day depending on the days I was smoking weed again but sadly that was my way out. I spent 4 months high every day from the time I rolled out of bed till I closed my eyes but see I was mellow I was happy I found a form of an inner peace that let me talk to my ego and sort something’s out of course I started small on the list of things I wasn’t so much worried about like a job and a car and all that those things come over time and work and right now I need to work on myself. So I was in this haze for these months and I learned a lot about myself and things I didn’t know I could do. I was getting my creativity back and my head was clearing and I just enjoyed who I was again. But this was the beginning of feeling good and happy and just flipping my world because the journey has only begun.

The only difference is, of course, that your friends aren’t really seated across the table from you. Instead, they are viewing the same virtual poker table on the screen of their own chosen device. Fairness: The cards are randomly shuffled and dealt by a random number generator, or RNG. The RNG ensures that the cards are randomized just as well as a physical deck shuffled by a mechanical shuffling machine, setting the scene for an utterly unpredictable game. Yes, it is possible for a programmer to create an app with a ‘stacked-deck’, so to speak, but rest assured, all of the platforms listed on this website are RNG-certified for fairness. Game Play: Each player views their own cards, just as they would in a real life setting. A variety of game play options are available at the tap of a mouse or finger, including all playing and betting options (Fold, Check, Bet, and Raise). It’s all pretty self-explanatory once you get seated at a table. So long as you are familiar with the rules of the game you’re playing, you should have no problems progressing through a hand. Interaction: Communicating with your opponents during an online multiplayer poker game is always an option; although how you do it will be determined by the app/website you choose to play on. Some are far more advanced than others. On the lowest level, you’ll have to type your conversation in a chat box. At the higher end of the scale, you may have microphone audio, or even video chat capabilities. Just remember that the greater the communication quality, the greater quality device you may need to play on. Real Money: Most players are content to play poker with friends for fun, using play-money chips, but not everyone. If you want to play for real money, your options will be more limited. First of all, you must live in a country like Canada, where online gambling is not prohibited by law. Second, you must choose a real money pppoker app. The detailed list of poker apps below will designate, among other things, whether real-money is an option or not. Multi-Player Poker Apps The following is just the beginning of what will soon become an exhaustive list of multi-player poker sites and mobile apps. I intend to add more on a daily basis (Mon-Fri), so bear with me and check back often for updates. Each of the items below comes with a personal review. I’d like to say that they are unbiased, but that may not be the right term for this. It might be more appropriate to say that they are honest. If I feel one is superior to another, I’m going to say so, and I’ll tell you why I came to that conclusion, because each player’s favoritism for a particular site or app will and should be based on their own personal circumstance. Some of you want real-money apps. Some are looking for iPhone or iPad compatibility. Maybe you want to play high-end video-enabled poker tables. That’s what these reviews, and the categorical check-lists for each, are meant to provide – a quick and easy confirmation of whether each item will meet your needs and desires. So, without further ado, here they are, in no particular order except the order in which I test and review them. Disclaimer: I touched on this already, but please – please! – if you intend to play real money multiplayer poker, make sure that you aren’t breaking any laws by doing so. It all depends on where you live. Canadian online gambling laws are very different from US laws, Australian laws, European laws, etc. Know the laws where you live and abide by them. I take no responsibility for your actions beyond this point. Table of Contents Use the following table to jump to a specific poker platform, or continue scrolling. If one of the platforms listed in this table is not linked, I have not yet reviewed it, but I intend to. Feel free to check it out on your own, or come back soon for updates. Frankly, it’s the online poker operator I know the most about. I’ve been playing here for years. It’s been in operation since 2002, but in those days, the company was known as Pacific Poker. Now, 888 is among the largest internet poker operators in the entire world, and one of the few brands approved to operate in the limited number of US states where iGaming is legal – a fact that speaks volumes to their integrity.Players can enjoy 888Poker from virtually any device. PC, Mac and Linux computers; iOS, Android, and Windows smartphones and tablets; if you can access the internet with it, you can play 888Poker on it. Android and iOS apps are available, and the browser platform is built in HTML5 for omni-optimization. You’ll find 888poker.com is geared primarily towards real money play. They accept Visa, MasterCard, Interac Online, InstaDebit, and other convenient ways to move money in and out of an account. There is a play money version at 888Poker.net, but this review is primarily for the real-money edition. What I like most is the simplicity. They offer a lot of variety, but not so much that the lobby becomes convoluted. Cash games on offer include Texas Holdem, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, and 7 Card Stud Hi-Lo. A full schedule of multi-table tournaments is available with major weekly and monthly guarantees, and the SNG menu is constantly bustling. 888Poker also offers its signature SNAP and BLAST Poker games, for those looking for a bit more flare. As a real-money poker experience, you can expect a lot of promotions to bulk up your bankroll, starting with a free no-deposit bonus when you register a new account. Other promos are always available thereafter, with regular deposit bonuses and cash back awards topping the list.
