What a cool idea! As a poker player, I'm qualified to judge. And a little ashamed that the computer kept kicking my butt. But the layout and challenge of the game were both pretty excellent.

Cool idea, would be interesting as an online multiplayer. Manages to beat the computer with a bunch of flushes though! Great work!

I really dig this! Super easy to understand right from the start, and extremely polished! I kinda want to play this against a friend in real life now, lol. Fantastic work!

This is a fantastic idea. My brain had a delay of about one second as it just took in all the cards on the screen and how I wanted to physically mix them some more to be a nuisance. Really fun and awesome concept, will echo the call of wanting to play this online or in person now

I like the cards and animations. But too fast for people that don't play poker. Player vs Player (online) will be nice. Gret work!

Nice idea. Would love to play it online. Turn based would be better because CPU took all 'my' cards.. ha ha ha.. Had fun with this. good job.

The audio is great and the concept is quite innovative IMO. I enjoyed the stress of trying to find the cards I wanted within 10 seconds while hoping that the CPU didn't take them first (which it sometimes did). Its a great execution of a simple but fun concept which is what LD is all about. Well done!

Great execution! Everything looks very clean, the sound effects are nice, and the scatter/shuffle effect looks great. The sea of green was a bit bland--I wouldn't have minded just a bit of texture for visual interest. I don't play poker, so the CPU stomped me even on the easiest difficulty setting. Very nice!

Nicely fit into the theme. Art is not good, try harder next time. Your game is pretty fun, so please make it more next time. Inovation is what is describe this game, nice.

Haha what a fun concept! Love the idea and seeing that pile of cards being distributed was very satisfying somehow. I have to admit that even on the easiest setting I still had issues against the CPU :sweat_smile:

I kind of wish that after each hand the CPU would reveal right away so you don't have to wait until the end to see how you're doing.

I'm bad at poker so this is confusion for me, but as some feedback- the cards dealt to me in the ldjam webpage were just green with lines through them and I was so confused as to what to do.

I opened the game up on the other webpage and realized you're supposed to see the cards. So much was explained. xD

No idea why that happened - maybe cause I'm on Opera?

Regardless, the concept seems cool. Chaos is something I like and this seems to have buckets of it.

Well done. :D

The embeded version on this website is terrible, because it doesn't load the card images. Glad I gave this game another try on the main hosted site.

I really like the way the cards scatter around each deal. super cool. The sound effects are nice as well

I enjoyed the gameplay of rushing to create good enough poker hands, with the card pool dwindling each deal. It did feel like it kind of simpflied to picking a number or two and looking for matches of them in the pile. That's not good enough to beat the hard or perhaps medium ai, but I don't feel like i have time to meaningfully do anything else {except for probably going for flushes, which I suspect is actually the dominant strategy here}

Very interesting and fun concept. What I would appreciate is some graphical representation of the hand, not just a text. I have to give props for the great sound effects, I would never be able to record such clear and fitting audio. Only thing missing was some smooth jazz :D

Very fun game! After half an hour I eventually can find the strategy to beat the hard computer in 5 rounds.

@ninjacreeper47 Thanks for letting me know, looks like something changed LD side after the first week or so that prevents my assets from being loaded by Phaser. Couldn't find a fix so just removed the embedded version to avoid confusion. Thanks for playing!

For those who may not know, Blitz poker is a fast poker format that allows you to enjoy your favorite game at top speed. You no longer have to wait for the next hand to start after the cards have been dealt. Whenever you discard your cards, you immediately move to a new table along with five new players from your pool who have also just discarded cards. In my experience, the 10Cric app is the most convenient way to play. You can download it thanks to https://10cric-online.in/mobile-app/. You can install the app for free by downloading the installation files on the betting site.

I earned from betting on https://mostbet-login.in/app/. Due to the popularity of drifting, 3Racing has released a new model - Sakura D3 CS Drift. Engine location in front of the front axle, drive by 3 belts, weight distribution close to real drift cars. The advice and experience of drifters were taken into account while creating the model, and a fundamentally new vehicle was developed. The front engine location gives good weight distribution for drifting.

It's a great blitz for poker! <3

Hey there! I just wanted to say that I tried "Poker Blitz" and it's a fun and fast-paced game. I love the idea of rushing to make poker hands, it adds a new level of excitement to the classic card game. And I totally agree, playing in fullscreen does enhance the experience. By the way, speaking of online poker games, I've been using OLE777 Casino https://www.ole777th.co/ since 2022 and I've never had any issues with it. They offer a great selection of games, including different variations of poker, and the platform is super user-friendly.
