Hi,
I've developed my first game that I've called Pokerrrat. I went through a bunch of iterations to get the math to work. It's a poker game with the betting mechanics of baccarat. All the info and demo is here: pokerrrat dot com

Please tell me what you think!

Is there a reason there are three consecutive Rs in the domain name?

Also, attempts to "download the game bible" just show the same page.

Yes, that's the name of the game. I wanted one that could be trademarked but maybe it's a bad name. Thanks for pointing out the issue with the link.

So this is AcKc vs QcQs drawing to 5 faceup cards (a board) and player has the ability to bet on AK or QQ.

Did you consider defining the two queens to be suits that don't diminish the chance of AK making a flush?

Gotta say this: I'm afraid that I find this game a bit boring.

So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

Thanks for sharing your game. I want to encourage anyone who tries to get into the difficult world of casino game invention.

I didn't feel like reading the 20-page "bible" more than I had to since I felt like it was near 100%-AI-Generated, I understand the game though.

The side bet pay tables look pretty ideal so great job on that.

Queens and Big Slick are stupid names (sorry). Especially since Queen is a rank... that makes it confusing.

Making three slightly different rule sets could confuse dealers and players.

Having no player decisions will make the game quick which is good - it's okay in real life if the smart people in this forum don't appreciate mindless table games that lack strategy.

3% commission would be a pain in the ass to implement irl. 5% is already hard enough for dealers.

Hope this helps, good luck. I like the concept but it could use a little work. I made a demo for a game like this for a YouTuber a few months ago. I'm not sure the strategy-keen poker loving crowd will intersect much with the Baccarat-liking crowd. That being said, Baccarat-players seem to like Niu-Niu in Asia so maybe it's not that unimaginable that they would like this game.

Okay I guess Big Slick is a poker term that I had never heard of, but I would recommend Player and Banker or Red and Blue or something like that. Something which implies it's a near coin flip, which wouldn't be otherwise obvious to players irl.

Just to clarify: there are no rounds of betting after the flop or the turn; the game would be the same if all five cards on the board are turned over at the same time, or one at a time - correct?
