This project was unfortunately "started" by a scam team, which was only built on lies.
"The situation is sad, however, the idea is very interesting and something I have always wanted to try and build.
That's why I have taken over this project and will over the next months try to build what was promised the investors.
I am not giving any guarantees and can not give any dates. What I can give however is my 100%, and that's what I will do."

"I was very glad when I saw Kevin wanted to take over this project. As this project is something I can actually see a future in.
I felt it was my duty to help out with what I can. Which is design, marketing and some experience with managing a community.
That's why I wanted to help Kevin with taking the job as community manager. We had a couple good talks on Skype and came to an agreement,
so I am now the official community manager of this project."

To build a poker client based on blockchain technology. Making it more secure and way cheaper to use than any other centralized poker clients out there.
Around 95% of poker players end up losing money when playign poker online, and yes, a big reason is because there is some really good and calm players out there that take much of the profit.
However, the biggest reason is the enourmous fee (rake) that these centralized services take. You as the player need to win with big percent over time to go in the green.
Therefore I believe (or no, I know) that this product will be a huge success if I am able to build it and that it works 100% as it should.
But, I am in the very early stage of development and can not promise that I will accomplish this succesfully. I respect the people in here to much to give out a false promise.
To build a own currency around the poker client, but also let people use Bitcoin.
If I was to start this from scratch, the chances of me even using a own currency is low. However, considering the situation it is obvious that I need to do so.
Not that big of deal really, it comes with some advantages as well as disadvantages.
What I do enjoy is the community it creates and the possibility to reward those that help me out and believes in me.
This is the end goal, or something like it. When I get to that point, community will be involved when deciding different options.
