Poker

[matt]

Short explanation (in notes):
- A game of poker
- Player run or not Player run
- Or some form of jackpot

Detailed description (why should it become added/...): Well recently when looking at what was actually in the perpheads content packs i noticed this

Spoiler: pokertable

and after question XQ about it he said he made it ages ago, way back in 2013, and I thought there could be a purpose for it, as it looks great in game, and not like the whole roll below a certain number thing that was stupid but easy money, this could be player run, or run by an NPC, in a jackpot or casino way, really it's just the fact that not everyone knows how to play poker, a jackpot is pretty self explanatory. This would be pretty fun and keep the community excited for a while. The funds from the money made if player owned would go to the player, if not it would just go to the NPC, so basically removed completely, or I don't know maybe the city funds could get it.



Optional additions:
- Casino Building
- Poker Chips
- Poker Chips exchange for money

Do you actually play poker you need to understand how long it can take.

There are two main kinds of poker Texas Holdem and 5 cards, Each are different and have different play styles but on the same principle. I have played both and while I have considered posting the same suggestion the game can take a very long time if played right. Im going to stay neutral on this as it seems you have limited knowledge in poker.

There's probably a reason it was removed.

Could you please be more specific regarding your suggestion, you've essentially just thrown "poker table, poker, building, figure it out" in the lap of the developers. You should be explaining your suggestion in depth with details. The devs have enough to do already, they shouldn't have to look through the I&S sub forum and see sketches of suggestions like this.

A legit / good game of poker can take a very long time depending on how quickly the big blind goes up and how much the buy in is. Unless people are that dedicated to finish it I don't really want to set up a good poker game for it to then end in 5 minutes because inexperienced people think going in with 2 doubles is a good idea.

I would kill to play poker on perpheads though, maybe add a casino design like TDU 2. Don't think this will be re-added though as it's seems very excessive and probably wont work out
