I had a chance to test out the Texas Hold em Poker game mode on the Utopia platform and here is my review. The crypto-based poker platform was easy to download and get started into, redeeming the CRP voucher was a breeze as well. After I was ready to get started, there was a bit of a wait to find players to play with. However after a while, I was able to join 2 players and play a few hands of poker.

The Highlights of Utopia Poker:

Thoughtful Timer System: One of Utopia's standout features is the default 60-second timer per player's turn. This is a generous amount that allows you enough time to carefully think out your moves. I did not feel rushed at all to make decisions against a ticking clock.

Visual Clarity: To me, Utopia does a great job in giving players a clear view of their hand's potential. As the flop, turn, and river cards are shown, the system shows you the best hand that your two cards make with the common cards. I often don't catch my hand strength with straights, flushes, full houses and it's good that the client shows you what you have. I actually ended up betting big (in my eyes) with a straight that I wouldn't have realized that I had in the first place.

0 Rake: Utopia does not take commissions for bets made in the made, which is very enticing for poker players.

Some Dislikes:

Lack of "Sit Out" Option: The biggest con I noticed about the platform was the absence of a "sit out" feature. This can be inconvenient for players who need a short break or wish to observe the game without actively participating. Sometimes when I lose a big bet or win a big bet, i want to sit out the next few hands while watching to re-think strategy. But in this case, my only option was to leave the table. The option to temporarily leave the table while staying in the poker room would be a welcome addition. It seemed like that as long as I am in the room, the dealer will continue dealing me cards, this is a problem if I am afk. So maybe some type of afk time out would be good to implement.

Play History: Once you leave a room, there is no way to revisit and review your past plays. I know that most other poker clients don't have this aswell, but since this one is built on crypto, I figured there must be some time of repository that can be accessed to have this info.

Premove Functionality: For players who like to plan their moves ahead of time, adding a premove function would be attractive, many other clients use something like this.

and I guess here is some proof of my games:

Code:

Dealer: Hand: #14851256987232512: taz wins pot (2.7734) with cards Jack, Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven
Dealer: Hand: #15149078770609258: taz wins pot (0.05)
Dealer: Hand: #15199070409180768: malcovi2 wins pot (0.05)
Dealer: Hand: #16232226200805789: malcovi2 wins pot (0.196)
Dealer: Hand: #16393894091869646: Zenp wins pot (0.196) with cards Six, Six, Ace, King, Ten
Dealer: Hand: #16693800498057489: Zenp wins pot (5.08816) with cards Queen, Jack, Ten, Nine, Eight

you are last barely visible Raybucks this is how I called you in Utopia

[wwzsocki]

I am online now, let's play some poker!

[raybucks]

I was playing poker for first time after learning it on youtube and wikihow websites, I played many card games online but this was first time i played with real people.
whom i know a bit on bitcointalk but never seen their faces,  was feeling like I am playing with my friends.
it was best experience to play on a full table of 8 players.
1.I was playing poker first time but after learning about it and everything was easy like how to make a table, what is buy ins, etc.
2. The table seems very small for  8 players and feels like we are playing on a 2d paper not on a poker table.  after seeing closely i was able to see flashlights on every table in front of every table which will be good if you make the table bigger and more like real table.
3. there was written some information about the game in corner which was visibe after seeing closely.
I think deal number may be important so make it copy able if it's important.
4. Make this gap smaller it's confusing to see which table name have how many members and buy ins.
5. Make something like a table link which we can copy and share with other players in groups or with friends, from which they can just click the link and be able to join that table,

My Review of the Utopia Poker App

To provide context I've enjoyed playing poker online numerous times but my experience with live table games is limited like participated only 2-3 times.

Anways, when OP posted he is playing poker (online) I quickly opened the Utopia app confirmed his request and got a code (uVoucher) from him to use it to play poker. It took just a few seconds to use or redeem that code.

Upon playing:
Surprisingly when I started playing there were only two players which is indicated in the lobby - OP and me if I'm mistaken in that table, but within 2-3 minutes there were eight of us at the table. Having a full table was exciting but it meant that the games took longer usually around 15 to 30 minutes. Because sometimes players would go idle or leave for no reason which slowed things down. So I really not enjoy the game because of it but it was smooth. Also managed to win 4 times out off 6 rounds.

Here's the dealer log:

Code:

Dealer: Hand: #292976904100364586: raybucks wins pot (0.147) with cards Ace, Ace, Three, Three, Queen
Dealer: Hand: #293582491258216700: xLays wins pot (1.9894) with cards Ace, Ace, Ace, Six, Six
Dealer: Hand: #293853516585167474: xLays wins pot (2.273992) with cards Eight, Eight, Jack, Ten, Six
Dealer: Hand: #294063532441535968: xLays wins pot (1.5974) with cards King, King, Ace, Ten, Five
Dealer: Hand: #294372769655367353: raybucks wins pot (4.8401024) with cards Ace, Ace, Queen, Queen, Jack
Dealer: Hand: #295330544324371724: xLays wins pot (9.614000704) with cards Ace, Ace, Nine, Nine, Five

Here's my suggestion to improve the Utopia Poker App: They should add some advanced options like even if it's not your turn you can advance your move like select FOLD, CHECK, ALL IN and CALL option. Just like many other online poker app like you can able to Call, Check, Fold & ALL IN in advance even if its not your turn.

The table design is very classic like it was a billiard table which is good for me but it looks like very small table could be stretch will look it better. Don't need to be having more design around it will kinda annoying for sure.
