01
Sit down, with a coach at your side
Six-player No-Limit Hold'em sit-and-go tournaments with rising blinds. The coach can explain each decision in plain English and estimate your chance to win from the cards you can see.
“This is a premium starting hand. Re-raising builds the pot while you are likely ahead.”
- Large readable cards, with a four-colour deck option
- A raise slider with minimum, half-pot, pot and all-in presets, and a confirmation before any all-in
- A table lesson for newcomers, and the coach can be switched off any time
-
02
Every showdown explained
Showdowns reveal the hands and highlight the winning five cards, so you always see why a pot went where it went.
“You win 970 with Flush, ace high. Your best five cards are highlighted.”
- Side pots, split pots and proper minimum raises, played correctly every hand
- Clear pot and call amounts at every street
- Resume any event exactly where you left it
-
03
The Velvet Circuit
Three venues at launch: the Velvet Lounge, the Midnight Terrace and the Grand Salon. Finish in the top three to earn a venue's passport and open the next door.
- Each venue has its own light, materials, music, host and roster of rivals
- The Lounge and the Terrace are free to enter and award Campaign Credits for placing
- More venues are in design and will arrive in updates, never as paid “coming soon” rooms
-
04
Twelve original rivals
Every opponent is a computer-controlled character with a style of its own: tight, loose and aggressive, balanced, deceptive, survivor, pressure.
- Rivals decide using only their own cards and what is on the table, never yours
- Difficulty changes how well they play, never the deck
- The Grand Salon is the championship: a six-player sit-and-go with 2,000 chips each
-
05
Practice, free and unlimited
The lobby opens onto the Circuit, free practice tables, the table lesson with hand rankings, and your progress.
- Practice tables are free, unlimited and have nothing at stake
- Tournament chips exist only inside one event; everyone starts with the same stack
- No timers, no energy, and no purchase prompts during a hand
-
06
Progress you can see
Hands played, pots won, titles, each venue's passport and 16 achievements, from your first deal to a championship.
- Works fully offline, with no account
- Separate volume controls for effects, music and the host's voice, with subtitles
- Large text, high contrast, reduced motion and left-handed controls
