Cool New Poker Site

TheBlueMonster · #1 09-05-2005, 03:57 AM

I heard a rumor that there will be a new poker site coming out soon. From what I understand it perfectly mimics a brick and mortar casino.
Some features:
1. Mis-deals and accidentally mucked hands will occur.
2. You can order virtual drink; the more drinks you order the worse the resolution of the cards will be. Games will be halted when the virtual drink is accidentally knocked over onto the table.
3. You can buy an attatchment to your computer that will actually allow you to smell the other people at the table.
4. You can actually beat up people that piss you off over the course of the game in the virtual parking lot (your fight rating will fluctuate based on the number of drinks you've had)
5. You deposit 'gas money' into your account; this will not be refundable and there is no way of getting it back except by winning.

As long as the games are comparably soft in stakes to B&M, i'm in.

Do I have to tip the virtual dealer? And if so, do I tip the same as in a B&M? Less? ...More?

If I am not mistaken http://www.jetsetpoker.com/ has some similar features, like changing your character's face representing your current mood and splashing the pot.

Great potential but the execution is a little lacking.

I gotta give it a bogey.

I thought this part was good, the rest was lacking. You really needed to work fecal matter in, could have saved it.

Absolute and Paradise already do this. That's why I only drink lemonade there.

I smirked a couple of times. Not great, but I have seen MUCH worse. I give it a C/C+
