Yup that's why in a way its a skill based game like poker. 

This is a luck based game, 99% luck, clearly written on the site and there is no skill needed just to press on the cashout button so it is not the same like poker games  Smiley

Well if you put it like that there's also no skill with poker.  You just need to bet all in and wait to see if you'll win.

Why I think it's like poker.  There's certainly that bluffing aspect of the game.  The showdown.  You're trying to get other players to go all in first and then you bet and get all the bonus.  Or you keep staring each other down and then you both die.  And there's also the constant calculation of the EV.  If you know someone's going to wait a long time, you could go early and you have a better chance of getting the bonus.
