Title: did pre-release of bitcoin source code really have virtual poker game? Post by: DougM on July 26, 2020, 12:48:05 AM I read this article and I was curious. Does the pre-release code really includes a virtual poker game?

If the references weren't edited, then it's true. It's also available in this repo which is a copy of old bitcoin code from this relevant thread: Code: https://github.com/benjyz/bitcoinArchive/blob/master/bitcoin0.1/src/uibase.cpp#L1573 (https://github.com/benjyz/bitcoinArchive/blob/master/bitcoin0.1/src/uibase.cpp#L1573) From this thread: Re: Bitcoin source from November 2008.

Thank you nc50lc ---the original article you pointed out is much more interesting and informative than what is currently available. If the references weren't edited, then it's true.
