What is new in the game: updates, rule changes and upcoming events.

Update

Hall shares: income from the system halls every day

You can now become a co-owner of the system halls without buying a whole hall. A share costs 100 coins. Every day, part of the commission from the system hold'em and video poker halls is split among shareholders. A share earns 1 to 10 coins a day, and the minimum is guaranteed even on a quiet day. The number of shares is limited, and one player can hold up to 20. The payout arrives in your cash box after midnight and is kept for three days — so drop by at least once every three days. You can sell a share back for 80 coins. The card is in the lobby, in the bottom row next to "Game Halls".

Update

Dealer shift: take a break and earn a salary

Tired of playing? Take a dealer shift — you can even leave the game — and come back in 10 minutes to collect your pay: 5 coins at level 1, up to 10 coins at level 6 and above. Sometimes a bronze letter for your collection comes along with it. Collected your pay? Start the next shift right away. While you play hold’em or video poker, the shift is paused — no double income. The shift card is in the lobby, where “Game Halls” used to be; the halls moved to the bottom row.

Update

What else is new

— A "?" icon next to the titles of tournaments, halls, clubs and the wheel explains how everything works. Read it and close it — it won't show up again. — On phones, the side menu opens with a swipe from the screen edge and closes with a swipe or the "Back" button. — Video poker tournaments got an "All" tab: regular and system tournaments in one list. — "Clubs" in the menu now shows the number of join requests, and the club screen updates by itself. — Video poker history now shows "Beat the card" steps and correctly marks a win when you go straight to the next hand. — Fixed: a lost connection during the draw no longer locks the "Next" button, and email sign-up once again tells you why it didn't go through.

Update

Get to know the game with Coach

New players no longer have to figure everything out alone: our mentor Coach will show you around in a couple of minutes. He'll teach you how to load the machine and play a hand of video poker, and show you where the hold'em halls and tables, tournaments and the wheel are. The right spot on the screen lights up as you go. Finish the whole tour and get 50 coins. Left the screen in the middle of the tour? You can continue from where you stopped. You can also restart it anytime from your profile.

Update

What else is new

— You can now brag in chat about silver, gold and items won on the wheel, too. — News moved to the game's side menu, with a dot marking anything unread. — The video poker payout table now explains the deck: it's shuffled once per hand and never rearranged until the hand is over. — The hold'em and tournament lobbies now explain what the room fee is and how room bonus programs work. — The "Game" menu item is now called "Lobby". The "Back" button in the lobby and at the table asks whether you really want to leave. — Came in through Telegram or a game portal? You can now link a real email in your account. — Fixed the wheel of fortune and sound on iPhone.

Change

Promo codes

The game now has promo codes — they give coins, wheel tickets and other useful things. Look for them in our posts, emails and on the game's catalog pages. Enter a code in your account, on the "Game profile" tab, in the "Promo code" block. If a code came as a link, just open it — the code fills itself in, and all that's left is to press "Redeem".

Change

A new way to double up — "Beat the card"

Video poker has a second way to double your win. The dealer's card is face up with four face-down cards next to it — you turn one over. Higher than the dealer's card and your win doubles; lower and it's gone. Ace is high, but a two beats an ace. Equal ranks are a tie: your stake stays, and you decide whether to double again or collect. Switch it on in the gear menu above the cards, under "Double-up". "Red or black" is still there — pick whichever you like. Both ways are equally fair: your chance to win a step equals your chance to lose it. In the new mode, "Check yourself" shows the whole next step — the dealer's card and all four face-down cards.

Change

Video poker now plays from a machine

Video poker coins now go into a machine. Load it from your balance — 100, 500, 1000 coins, everything at once or an amount of your own — and your bets come out of the machine, while winnings drop back into it. Above the cards you can see how much is in the machine and how much you're up or down since the last load. The coins in the machine are yours: leave the game and they'll wait for you. You can cash them out to your balance any time a hand is over — tap the purse icon above the cards. The coin top-up is only handed out when the machine is empty: if your balance is zero but the machine isn't, cash out first. None of this touches tournaments — they still use their own chips.

Update

Wheel of fortune: silver, gold and items you can't buy

The wheel now has rare prizes — silver and gold, plus a card back and an avatar that aren't sold anywhere: they can only be won. Tap "Prizes" next to the ticket counter to see what the wheel gives and which items are up for grabs. If you already own an item, you get coins instead. One more thing: on a phone you can now move video poker lower, closer to your thumb — the gear above the cards, "Game position".

Update

What Else Changed Recently

— A payout table now appears on the video poker screen, and completing a full double-up chain earns a separate bonus. — A video poker tournament can now be started in any open room, not just your own. — A hold'em tournament can now be started by more than just the room owner. — Sending a gift is now a two-step flow — easier to pick the recipient and the occasion. — If an invite code didn't work, you'll see that right away. — You can now invite a friend through the Telegram bot with your own invite link. — Tournaments now survive a server restart more reliably — ones waiting to start no longer get cancelled early. — Coach and the FAQ now explain the chip economy in more detail.

Update

The Game Has a New Look

We refreshed the look of the table, cards, and chips.

Update

Peek at the Double-Up Card

Cashed out in video poker and wondering if you sold yourself short? The result screen now has a "Check yourself" button — it shows the card that would have come up next in the double-up. That card was already set at the moment of the deal, so the peek changes nothing in the game — it just answers the "what if" question. Uses one charge; a pack of five is in the shop.

Update

Collect a Word, Get a Reward

Every hand you play in video poker or hold'em can drop a letter — bronze, silver, or gold. Collect the letters of one metal to spell a word and trade it in for a reward: the rarer the metal, the bigger the prize. Check your letters and trade in a finished word on the new "Letters" tab in your account.

Update

Out of coins? Answer a few questions

An empty balance is no longer a dead end. The "Get Coins" tab in the coins section hands out a fresh stack for correctly answering questions about poker — rules, hand rankings, simple spots at the table. A wrong answer locks nothing: you are shown the right one and given another question. The more often you come back for a payout in a row, the more questions it takes.

Update

Gifts between players

You can now buy a gift for coins and send it to any player — from their profile card or from the "gifts" tab in your account. A short note can go with it, and the gift can be sent anonymously. The gift stays on the recipient's shelf and is visible to everyone who opens their card. Anything unwanted can be taken off the shelf, and a sender can be blocked from sending more.

Update

Pick an avatar

Your account can now show a picture instead of the first letter of your nickname. Avatars are bought for coins on the "shop" tab in your account settings, and you can change the one you wear whenever you like. Some of them are unique: once someone buys such an avatar, it leaves the catalogue for everyone else.
