Poker? Any News on What kind or when availible?

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I was just curious if anyone new anything about when Poker would be possibly availible with in the Interiors of our ships?

I see a poker table there will it be used anytime soon? Then I ask what kind of poker will it be?

Im very excited for this subject personally. I hope they put extra effort into the quality of it. Id like to see the character's sit around the table in some regard.


It would be really awsome if they could get in good with one of the Poker game making companies and hhave them work with Cryptic in some way temporarily.

Will poker be texas holdem style/ 7 card stud? Possibly able to switch to different poker types? Maybe make it a C Store Item. Let say you buy a Poker Style and then you can invite your friends to your ship for that particular style of cards?

    I don't have any news on when we will be getting it, but I am just as excited or more so than you. I'll definitely be holding weekly games on my ship. Texas Hold'em only though. It's "The Cadillac of Poker" after all. LOL.

    Assuming of course we get a choice of poker styles :)

    I'd like to think that even if we don't have a choice, the only option will be Texas Hold'em. It is the most popular style.

    Fair enough assumption I'm sure, I doubt they would choose the most obscure version, but at the same time never bothering to pay attention to the episodes with them playing, did they play Texas Holdem or was it more just regular poker?

    i would prefer Five card draw or like, seven card stud or something. I am not a big Texas hold em fan, But I would be happy with anything.

    *tries to envision Klingon Poker* *ponder* are there any Klingon games that don't involve knives, headbutting, or disruptor play?

    Not sure about any card games, but their version of Chess (Klin'Zha) should most assuredly be added! There is a thread already talking about it which can be found here.

    I have to admit i'm pretty stoked to see this. I can't wait until I can invite people onto my ship to play a friendly round of poker.

    Texas Hold-Em sometime after Season 2.

    I believe that the TNG crew mostly played seven card stud. Really, I'm a poker player in RL so any version will do. I love them all.
