It's five card poker and I've got to say it's pretty well programmed, the guy who wrote this clearly knew poker and it's fundamentals. It has the terminology right, the players know to go for a flush if possible and it all plays pretty realistically, although it can be pretty boring as well. I did the easy difficulty of 5000 chips and I have to say it feels like a drag because the bets are usually so small, although I did a no limit game and there were occasions were the players would raise over each other constantly like it was an auction. You also don't know how many chips the computer players have left, as if it doesn't matter and the game continues until you run out of money, and when they run out they play on anyway? I haven't played enough to find out for sure but I hope I am wrong with that, otherwise it defeats the purpose of being a poker game because you can't win. I feel playing it on hard is the real game because you only start with 500 chips and you would have to be cautious about your hands more so that you don't lose too much. But for what it is I am very impressed with how it plays, I'm really enjoying it and I will be saving this current game to return to later.
