Would be curious to hear about what sites you use, and what problems you may have faced when using them.
Me and some friends have been working on http://lipoker.io which lets you play with no download, no signups, and has a video chat integration.
Would love to get some feedback on it from any casual poker players out there!
I've been playing a ton since COVID-19 started, almost every night! My group uses the Pokerrrr 2 app. I've actually been thinking that someone should build something better.
Thoughts:
Etc. I could go on forever.
If you're looking for a mentor/advisor, I'm pretty interested in this space!
Wow thanks for this extremely detailed feedback!
That's interesting, we initially assumed that people would mostly be on desktop because they'd want video chat, and why would they want to play in their small phone screen instead of their desktop?
Turns out about half of our traffic is from mobile users.
I can see how video calling every day would get tiring haha. We do have in-game chat, though it could probably use some UI improvements.
Yeah I think group features would make our site more valuable. People have also been asking for things like group tournaments.
Definitely coming soon.
Our focus is on groups of friends playing games for real money, and we have a leaderboard that helps with that. Currently working on an equivalent "settle up" functionality to show payouts.
We were also trying to be especially beginner friendly to get people who might not normally play poker, or more casual players, by including things like easily accessible hand rankings.
Yeah we've been thinking about how much features we need before we start pushing the site out. I think right now we're at a baseline where we can get people from certain other poker sites that have similar functionality to us but a worse UI.
This is a hard one since no matter what we say, people can choose not to believe us. Maybe open sourcing might be a good solution to this. In the meantime we'll definitely be adding information about our random algorithm.
Definitely a work in progress. Thanks for that feedback.
There's a lot of customization that can be done. The challenge with that is since there's so much that could be done, we have to carefully prioritize which to do first. And I could see a point where having 100 different options might make usability hard. Of course, there's probably a good way to design that.
Thanks for offering to help! We're not sure how far we want to go with the project just yet, but I'll let you know if we're interested in going deeper with it, in which case you'd be a valuable mentor.
I would look at other businesses that operate in low-trust sectors, e.g. used car sales. They've probably got really marketing playbooks for how to establish a brand that people trust and believe has their best interests in mind.
That said, this def isn't an urgent priority.
My friends and I are also exploring ideas about online multiplayer card games, we would really like to listen more of your thoughts about online poker!
For several years now, my friends and I have been playing poker. We have professional equipment, so we can invite outsiders to the game and play for money. I have grown to love the game and have started playing it as soon as possible. My friends noticed that I started winning very often and suggested I try my hand at an online casino. I was very hesitant about it, as the live game is very different from online, but I decided to try my hand at https://1win-ozbekiston.com/ . I started earning good money from the first games, and now I plan to earn so constantly.
Every Friday we get together with friends and play poker for money. Many of us are engaged in professional poker and earn money from it. I've been playing crypto online poker for nine years and managed to earn a house, two cars and a cottage. To start earning money playing poker, you need to develop mathematics, psychology and restraint. In this sphere, there's a lot of money and to take it for yourself, you need to deceive your opponent, or your opponent will deceive you. This game is very interesting, helps to develop mental abilities and earn money. By the way here is the site where we play poker: https://swcpoker.eu
