You're in Las Vegas to make a name for yourself and to win as much money and fame as possible! Arriving flat broke and virtually unknown, you must earn your way off the streets and into increasingly luxurious and challenging casinos that offer Five Card Draw, Texas Holdem and Blackjack. Discover items along the way that provide bonuses and add variations to every game - mixing game rules like No-Limit, Pineapple, Crazy Pineapple, Lowball, Royale, No-River, Hi-Lo, Double-Draw, 3 card Holdem and lots more. This is essentially a poker game with RPG and MMORPG elements, and includes both extensive singleplayer and/or multiplayer based progression - play how you like!

*************

Game Features include:

**NEW 6/10** Multiplayer (open beta):

* Multiplayer includes 6 multi-wing Five Card Draw venues, weekly progression, items that enable house rules (like Lowball, Hi-Lo, Jackpots, Double-Draw etc), ELO rating, and lots more.

Singleplayer game:

* 17 different Five Card Draw poker venues and

* 14 Texas Holdem venues that increase in difficulty and rewards

* 3 venues offering Blackjack and Double Blackjack

* 180+ unique characters with individual AI, play-styles, stats and special moves (Note: A few characters appear dependent on what gender you play as and time of year)

* Win consumable items after every game. Consume these items for a temporary bonus in your next game(s). These bonuses stack so you can either use them immediately for a small bonus, or stockpile the items and use them all at once for larger bonuses.

* Regular Items drop off certain opponents after you defeat them. You can equip or consume these items for a special effect or sell them for cash. Unlike consumables, these regular items have different effects while equipped (examples are the Insurance Card which rewards you with 10% of your buy-in back if you lose a game, and the Hunter's Cap which ensures that opponents with a bounty will always show up).

* Earn luxury items that you can equip to change the game up. Examples of this are a monocle that turns all Texas Holdem venues from No-Limit to Limit, a Golden-Deck that gives you gold cards and allows you to choose how many decks to play with in Five Card Draw, the Badhand which turns all Hold'em venues into Lowball venues, and lots more!

* Meld items from different games together, for example the Gold Ring (which awards 50% more fame in Five Card Draw games) and the Platinum Ring (awarding 50% more fame in Texas Holdem) can be melded together to produce the Stardust Ring (awarding 100% more fame in both games).

* Loanshark Tino offers loans (but make sure to pay your debts on time!) and luxury items.

* Generate fame by defeating players (lose fame by being defeated, dependent on what order you go out)

This game started as a homework assignment (just an algorithm for evaluating poker hands) and it ballooned over the last several years as I am continually adding new content. The initial game released with only 8 Five Card Draw venues and just a handful of opponents, and overtime I added more venues, blackjack, texas holdem, items, new opponents and AI to match all the potential house rule combinations, the bar and pawnshop, multiplayer, the website etc.. so if you ever get bored please check back later!
