around 1.6 billion people worldwide gamble, What about a poker gamefi??

[mocayyyyy]

According to the data.ai used to be Annie App, Zynga app has been downloaded 80,692,457 times on Andriod and 55,130,766 times on IOS till the end of 2021. there are more apps like WSOP, Mega Hit, GOP3 and etc.

This just a non-real cash poker app. However, there are real cash poker apps such as pokerstars, 888poker, GGpoker, partypoker and etc.

As of July 2020, there were 7,791 poker tables world-widely.

further more, World gambling statistics show that around 26% of the population gamble. That means around 1.6 billion people worldwide gamble and 4.2 billion gamble at least once every year.

We have seen so many types of GameFi, but none of them is focused on the game which means it is not entertained. I think poker is a good start point to enter the gamefi area in the future.

There's a lot of poker website already available that accepts cryptocurrency if you are asking for that. Most of them are regular casino that has a house poker games which is available to everyone. I don't see the point for looking a specific project focus on poker while it's available on most of the crypto casino nowadays? 

I just so this cool crypto poker site while browsing the web for this subject matter. https://blockchain.poker/#/?table=700723

Most of the poker site using cryptocurrencies to solve the problem of moving money (deposit and withdrawal), but there are several technologies to solve the problem of trust. The shuffling system and etc.

Well people did already mention the source and at the same time I think the article was self explanatory, poker essentially is becoming more and more famous online because in my stead I think it combines the traditional poker with the new Digital market which again is something that is very important for any kind of game and this is something that is enjoyed by both old people and young adults.

Right now with the emerging live poker players like the emersive experience a lot as well, they are key areas where a gambler focuses on during the pandemic, which again makes it a much sought after game.

Rest ! Please post your source to make it more credible!

Based on our study, there are over 1.3 billion Poker Players world-wide. The poker market will grow from $70.01 billion by the end of 2021 to $112.09 billion by 2025. The compound annual growth rate of 12% demonstrates exceptional growth and potential. The average number of daily active users of some of the leading online poker games are around 40 million.

We have seen so many types of GameFi, but none of them is focused on the game which means it is not entertained. I think poker is a good start point to enter the gamefi area in the future.

As the other user say, please mention the articles before to do your post. Anyway, about poker, yes surely it is a good sector with large grow margin for the next years. But poker isn't so appreciated from every casino

because it is really hard to manage poker room, check players, ecc. and have in change only the rake, that's why they prefer classic casino game.

From my understanding, poker is a game of skill, though it still require some level of luck to win, but focusing on the skill part, i think this could be one of the reasons why it seems like not very many people pay attention to poker mostly in online casinos, i myself for example gamble most times, but ive never looked the poker way because i dont have any knowledge or the skill required to stand a chance of winning, and i believe it could be this same story for several others out there.

And to what the OP said which i quote below-

There is no way online casinos will focus on a game not too many people pay attention to or know hoe to play, running a casino is like someone doing a business, the product which your customers demand for more is the product you buy more of so you dont run out of it, casinos pay more attention to games their customers and potential customers want to spend their money on playing, maybe if more people begin to find playing online poker more interesting than the other classic games, then casinos will begin giving poker a much more attention.

@Op, Another reminder to quote the source of your post, for the safety of your account as everyone else have said.

You are suggesting this at the wrong time op. The entire market is sinking like crazy and most play to earn crypto games are screwed due to their respective token prices falling drastically in value.

Also, poker isn't really the hottest crypto game out there. You usually get matched with bots due to the unavailability of human players in crypto gambling sites.

The population of the world is projected to increase by 98,830,797 people in 2022 and reach 8,046,949,318 in the end of the year.

Source - https://countrymeters.info/en/World#:~:text=The%20population%20of%20the%20world,the%20end%20of%20the%20year.

So 10% of the world population is into poker?! I guess it's far from that! Maybe this can be like 1.3 billion people who played poker at least once, or like they know about the game but they never played!

I agree with Haunebu:

Poker is far from the hottest crypto game, sad but true! I played in many places, and we even had some tries with Bitcointalk poker games, but sooner or later people just stop playing... there are not enough people in crypto who are serious about poker! It's how I see it!

And yes, times are crazy currently, so like others I am not sure about this idea! Maybe in the future when things change!

You're right. In fact, I find it hard to believe such a statement.

OP doesn't specify what study he refers to and where such data comes from. According to the article linked by yahoo, there are approximately 120 million online poker players worldwide. That is actually ten times less than the 1.3 billion mentioned by the OP, and that is a much more realistic figure in my opinion.

^ Based on my understanding, this gamefi most likely for the game feature that has play-to-earn games which is I don't think will suit to a poker game.
There should be a way of earning through the game or boosting their earning through leveling their account or if there is a character that has a stage progress through playing by other users. So how does this work on Poker?
Axie infinity considering gamefi game which I think they have also a game that well-entertaioned players.

Include the necessary links at your first post, edit and put the links there.

I agree, it's not the best time to have that idea since the market is tanking and you look at the other p2e games and you'll see them down like 99% of their total value from their ATH.

Also, I don't think that there's any need for poker to have it as gamefi. It's good as the normal poker game that we have right now, whether it's on fiat poker tables and online and as well as with crypto.

Poker is world wide famous. It is a game that is very simple to learn but it takes a life and lots of practice to master, and if you want to live professionally of poker you are looking at many hours of work, plenty of ready, lots of machine playing, etc. In a way it has become something like chess in a way, except that you have many chanpionships and there are many people who manage to live of it as a profession.

If you do really want to make a living from this game, you will dedicate a lot of your time to enhance your skills.
But for some poker players, this is already their bread and butter, it means, they are full time players on this game.
I am surprised that there are millions and millions of poker players already, it means, this business is getting billions of dollars of revenue.
This will entail full dedication if you do really want to make a living out of this game.

The downloads are a guide,  gross total, but the players online are really very few and from experience I would say that the daily, weekly, monthly traffic entering all the Fiat and crypto poker casinos, is really the number that interests any player.

So, player traffic certain cash tables is vital and if you want to win sometimes you must look in the 24 hour range where the profit of bb/100 is more profitable for your game, the point is that if a casino "x" it has 1billion registered players it doesn't help me much, it helps me how many players are connected at certain times, so traffic it so is really  important data.

That there are 1 billion players...ok, let me know of an acceptable traffic and in what place, but in reality the players who play real money are very few in relation to those numbers that you mention.

[keyscore44]

World gambling statistics show that around 26% of the population gamble.

I am afraid these statistics do not represent the true proportion of how many people actually gamble.
In many countries, gambling is completely forbidden and in others it is simply not possible.
These 26% may also include people who simply buy lottery tickets, which, depending on the regulator, is considered a gamble or not.
I think these statistics are simply untrue, or at least very inaccurate.

This is the first time I read this Pokerfi I did a research about this Pokerfi and I found a good article explaining this

https://www.bsc.news/post/pokerfi-online-poker-and-cryptocurrency-combined

Why Play on PokerFi?
We are developing a platform of good playability with a premier rakeback offer. As the concentration of the company’s profits is on the transactions of the currency that will be used as a means of payment, we can provide high-quality freerolls for the same reason and we will give utility to the money of cryptocurrency investors

it's worth promoting and discussing this as many poker players are not aware of this, although you show data of huge poker players, in the future, we could have a platform for this if developers are dedicated to launching one since the market to target is huge.

[Wexnident]

Gamefi is that p2e kind of stuff right? I'm pretty sure NFT's have been integrated into some casinos so that it gives gamblers some sort of Rakeback or advantages, rollbit has it afaik and there are probably a few more out there that have it. There's also been an NFT slots idea iirc? Outside of that, I don't think you can turn Gamefi anymore without breaking the luck factor involved. It also doesn't really suit the model of gambling imo, not unless casinos are able to create a new game outside of the usual ones we have.

On a side note, download count only says one side of the story, maybe add daily user count if possible?
