Poker coming to stake.com in the near future !

[DoublerHunter]

I have seen the best trusted publications for the stake.com site , what if I could be Excited to be quite honest is that they can put a game Function to play pvp , there is no other way that might interest me, because I have entered many casino sites and the poker they offer is the same, only they change the way they Present it, but that is something that has not Changed at all , there are no Live tournaments , there are no indications that it is Another way of playing, the only casino that i have seen that has this feature is betnomi and it is full of people on the Forum.

^Dont forget that Stake.com has its own forum too, that s probably a potential that there will be more players in live poker.
This is good news and I really like poker games since then, probably I will try to play there and open an account if this will happen. Player to player game in poker is a good one not against on the house edge. I hope this is not only a rumor and Eddie will launch the poker game as soon as possible.

Stakes is more known with sports betting but additional games would be more entertaining especially for gamblers who usually jumps from one game to another. In such case, they won't need to move to other platform just to play poker. I hope other gambling games as well will be added. But I cannot blame those  stake players who'd still play with other poker sites 'coz there are differences and for an instance bonuses and rewards unless stake will offer likewise. Good platforms would adapt with fellow competitors for sure in order to sustain their 'position' or reputation in this industry as one of the most popular ones.

^Yes, because it is important to consider the reputation and reliability of the platforms they choose. Established and reputable platforms often adapt and grow to stay competitive in this industry. They understand the importance of meeting players' expectations and offering enticing incentives to maintain their position and attract new users. Platforms like Stake can indeed strive to introduce similar bonuses and rewards to well-compete with their competitors. By keeping an eye on the trends and preferences of the gambling community, they can make adjustments to their offerings, ensuring that players feel rewarded and valued.

This is good news in a way since this is coming from one of the most popular and reputable casinos we have around and also let's see how the development will go and how interesting the game will be at stake, but I am sure we are going to have some good time having poker on stake.

And I am also looking forward to seeing when the casino will arrange one of the biggest tournaments in the games, seeing how popular some casinos have become through the help of such competitions.

I am not good in poker at all, I prefer games like roulettes which are very easy to play with big odds. But I have noticed one thing about poker, that it is not common at all on crypto gambling sites. I will doubt it to be certain if I have noticed it on crypto gambling site before, but I do not think so. Or can you mention me one crypto casino that has poker. What I am just saying is that poker is not common on crypto casino sites for now. If Stake brings it, it is a good thing.

[ryzaadit]

Let's see then.

I also want these, I hope they build a good system like "Evolution Games" or maybe doing some partnership with 'Evo' using their technology and platform. Rather than waiting so long for build these.

Looking forward.

Poker is unpopular but still, it is a very good game for tournaments most especially in a round where players battle against each other to win the prize, and we have a few cryptocurrency casinos that offer poker games, and one popular one among them is Betnomi, because, in time past, betnomi is the only casino that has organized poker tournaments here is the forum.

They have done that once or twice giving forum member the chance to battle for the prize and each time yahoo62278 have been their organizer, if I am not mistaken.

[kotajikikox]

On yesterday's stream Eddie said Poker should and will be coming to stake some time soon.
He didn't mention a specific time though.

This should be happened many years ago , because stake already proven to be successful and trusted site for crypto gamblers so having Poker? and will conduct event and competition?cannot wait to see this coming soon.

Let's see then.

I also want these, I hope they build a good system like "Evolution Games" or maybe doing some partnership with 'Evo' using their technology and platform. Rather than waiting so long for build these.

Whatever comes since this is stake that we are talking? we can be sure that this is best and better for all gamblers .

The poker series started out on SwC and was 1st organized by efialtis. After SwC series we ended up moving to Betnomi where I organized 2 series and icopress organized a 3rd.

I wouldn't say poker is unpopular as much as I would say most on here are not experienced enough to put their money into it.

Maybe it will be great for their business if they can have their own network and try to attract poker players from the other existing network.

Well building an entire ecosystem of poker network is pretty much the same as building an entire casino from the scratch. Aside from that, its going to cost them fortune to actually do that so I dont think Stake is willing to do that much on a market that has been controlled by several top poker network. At best they will cooperate with an existing poker network then launched poker in Stake, pretty much that

Exactly, but there is a possibility they will create their own network if we look at the fact Stake was also created from the scratch while basically they can modify/improve Primedice but they decided to create/build a new casino. Cooperating with existing network has a big benefit as well because there is at least player base already in the existing network. Lets see how it goes. However what I'm afraid is that if Stake add the poker in their current website, it will make the site become slower unless they also do a big upgrade in the current website.

This will be an amazing idea if they will partner on evolution gaming since it will be in live poker table and dealer while we are playing virtually at home. The only problem was evolution gaming doesn’t have any games offered that is pure PVP skill based game. They have poker but it’s always player against the house.

But if Stake manage to provide a live poker table which player can play against each other with live dealer on table then this is the best poker table so far on online casino since it gives the experience of playing on real table.

[slapper]

Absolutely, this is smashing news! Adding poker to Stake is definitely gonna spice things up and could bring in more punters. Plus, let's not forget the tidy sum the company could net from the raked pots. You made a cracking point about whether Stake will build its own poker software or hook up with an existing network. Doing it themselves means they hold all the cards on game mechanics, rake policies, and crucially, they can stick to their current KYC standards. But this could also pile pressure on their development team and might mean fewer players around in quieter hours.

On the other hand, if they buddy up with a well-established poker network, Stake could instantly tap into a wider bunch of players and a battle-hardened software solution. But this could also mean stricter KYC checks, which might scare off some users. It's a real balancing act, for sure. And I'm totally with you on game variety. More options could make Stake a lot more engaging and could cater to the different abilities and tastes of players. Here's hoping they take players' feedback onboard!

Do not get your hopes up too high... Eddie promise new features and new gambling sites to people in restricted countries, every streaming session ...and it seldom happens.

He is creating content and these things might be in the planning phases, but nowhere ready for implementation. He even laugh at himself, when he makes promises like this... but let's see what happens.

Most of their budget goes into marketing and not into development of new features.... just look at the time that a new original game were last, launched. 

I think there is a difference between a new game and a new feature.
A new original game doesn't bring new players, a new feature like poker would 100% do.

Besides poker and casino, poker would be the 3rd leg of the site. Other than the costs for development and hosting there is also no risk of losses in this area. Lean back and collect rake.

Also, he didn't laugh or whatever when he spoke about it. He actually sounded pretty serious.

Of course it does. Original game is new in the eye of the gamblers so they will get curious to try it and who knows? They might like it and it can now be one of their favorite games. Poker is not a feature but it's called a game. One example of feature is the chatbox or the notification bell. A new feature can excite a gambler and it can enhance their existing experience so it is helpful too if the casino will came up with it.

Stake is a big casino so don't worry about the development and hosting fees. They can surely afford these. It seems clear to me that this was a stand alone poker game or category, just like sports betting. It made sense since I know there are already several poker games on Stake.

On yesterday's stream Eddie said Poker should and will be coming to stake some time soon.
He didn't mention a specific time though.

If the news is true then that would be a really nice addition. There are no good poker games in world of crypto gambling and we only have the casino games and some other games that purely are for the lucky ones. If poker is added and basically a poker game similar to "Governor of Poker," then that would make the site more attractive. I will surely join it if the game looks and works similar to GOP because that would be more entertaining and not only gambling but a way of enjoyment as well.

There are some live poker games on some gambling sites, but I feel those aren't well-suited for every poker player. The sites does offer the live version and some people play poker in that style, but for me that takes away the control from the gambler and leaves it in the hands of the one who is arranging that live poker game.

I think that's a great idea. They basically get risk free money through collecting the rake. Having a super big player base this would be a HUGE opportunity for stake and for their players.

For people with skill at poker that might become a lucrative site. Many degen gamblers that just lost with casino games and sports might "try their luck" at poker, fishing time. 

Question is though, will they make their own poker software/network where only stake players will be able to play or will they join a network like ipoker, ggpoker, 888 and so on.
My best guess that they will keep it in house because KYC is not mandatory. Some abusers might want to run up some amounts on sports/casino and the chip dump it to somebody on a different site through shared network.

Anyway, I think it's a nice idea. Poker with crypto still is WAY too small.
Let's hope they can create a fun and safe environment with a lot of different poker variations like NLH, PLO, Stud games, Chinese Poker and so on.

Hopefully they are asking the players for their input when creating this! And please, make some moderate rake. 

Poker is not equal poker. What kind of poker variants will there be? I assume Texas Hold'em will be offered, naturally. Omaha Hold'em and Chinese poker would be nice additions as well. I wonder why crypto poker is so relatively small compared to other games? You would think it would be bigger, especially since it is relatively popular in every other non-crypto casino, especially physical location casinos.

As far as skill with poker goes, I think most of it lies in the ability to read someone elses bluff. Which used to be a skill since it was/is a face-to-face game but its almost impossible over the internet. So I would wager its more a luck game than anything, now.

-snip-

Yes correct.

Especially for like Player vs Player things, the main problem are the player. Partnership with Stake x Evo should no need to looking a player again since Stake have a lot user almost 20,000 online at the same time + Evo is favorite live-games.

It's nice, If they can build that.

How is Poker unpopular? Poker is one of the most popular and widely played gambling games in the world, the top three most popular casino games are Slots, BlackJack, and Poker. So it is not really unpopular, it is just that some people might not like playing poker which basically has to do with them not being skilled in the game.

I myself am not a fan of Poker since I never played it and I don't understand it very well, even if I get to know how it is played, I won't be very skillful and will probably lose every game I participate in.

I really want to play poker on crypto casino, I chase it and still don't know any popular and trustworthy casino that has Poker in their game list. Btw it will be more fun if they join the network but I agree with you, they will be able to do on their own too.

    -  I also noticed that there are really only a few poker games in the field of crypto, only a few of them actually exist. I've been hearing about poker for a long time but I don't know how to play it, but I have a cousin who competes nationwide here in my country and he has a manager who handles him.

But even so, I still didn't have an interest in something that I probably just didn't like to play. But when you say that there is rake that returns to the player, isn't it if there is a large amount of rake that comes back, it means that the amount used to play cryptop gambling is also a large amount.

It would be great if the Stake team could evolve this way, but it would be difficult for them to compete with networks like GG, WPN, 888, Pokerstars, etc. Personally, I would prefer to see daily multi-table tournaments from Stake, as well as regular series with BTC prize pools.
As for the statement that poker is a luck game, I don't agree with that. Luck can matter in a certain hand, but only skill is a decisive factor in the long run. Just look at the list of the richest poker players. Some of them have already won over $40-60 million. I highly doubt that any of these players are capable of winning tournaments on a regular basis relying only on luck.

SWC and Betnomi, I think these 2 are the most reliable places if you wanna play pvp poker game with crypto.
I was very active poker players years ago but when I was still playing in fiat poker sites.
When I started to gamble in crypto casinos, I do not play poker much but I always try whenever there is a new poker site in this crypto gambling industry.
With the current situation of Stake where they have huge player base, I think it will be a great movement from Stake to expand their business and gain more profit.

However what I'm afraid is that if Stake add the poker in their current website, it will make the site become slower unless they also do a big upgrade in the current website.

Well, Stake has resources... but are they willing to spend a nice amount to get into poker more seriously or not time will tell. I guess it would be great to see a crypto poker place that can come closer to 888, Poker Stars, and some others.
