Can any of you help me find the patent for this particular feature...? There may not be one based on my one search that took one second

Thanks. https://patents.justia.com/patent/10540852 may be of interest.
(There is still a lot to sift through.)
May the cards fall in your favor.

Which feature are you specifically interested in seeing the patent for? Games with tournaments and leaderboards have been around a long time and are probably no longer protectable.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

specifically the power deal feature and how it gets around generating the hand that is more beneficial to the player

i think i know how it works as i have already posted a patent in the past... and now that im re reading the ad its actually quite clear how it works and i may not even need the patent for this particular feature which actually melds well with the previous patent that i am talking about

but in the picture above - what i think is happening - is that they generate the hands like they normally would - randomly - but they generate multiple hands and pick the one with the highest outcome and present it to the player
