This thread is not about PVP poker, it's about video poker, which is a very different thing.
This thread proves that there are still some people who cant differentiate between Video Poker and pvp Poker. Some people still think/understand that Video Poker = Poker (pvp). Perhaps it is due to lack of experiences or lack of knowledge about Video Poker.
Yes, I've noticed it too. Although it is not necessarily play the games to know how they work, it's still preferable to do, nevertheless. I encourage anyone, who don't know the difference to spend 1-2 hours of their spare time on playing these games. After that, it wouldn't be so hard to see the difference: Video Poker is very much like slot games, and pvp poker is very different.
Well, I can't blame them since I was one of them till Nov 2019. Thanks to MintDice boss who gave the correct answer.

How about the kind of "poker" that is similar to slots? I don't know what it called though...

The game was like pull the lever, and you receive five random cards. If the player gets a pair, triple, four a kind, flush, etc., he will get x payouts, just like slot games.

Maybe this way you could attract both slots and poker enthusiast.

This is called Video Poker. This is a fundamentally completely different game than what we have been talking about, but yes, this game could in theory be put onto a website and be made provably fair with relatively little difficulty. However, we have no intention to add this game to our website at any point on our roadmap, yet.


Yep, it's similar, but still I don't consider myself as a self-proclaimed video poker expert because it's more difficult. You have to think which cards to keep and which to redraw. There's guilt when you made the wrong decision, unlike slots when I barely feel any guilt even if I lose.
