Small Rockets Poker

Try your hand at four different Poker games.

Paul Rowlingson, vnunet.com 01 Mar 2002

Poker has long been the gambler's favourite card game, relying as much on skill as it does on luck of the draw.

Small Rockets Poker lets you play the game on your PC, without the worry of keeping a 'poker face' or losing loads of real money.

You start each game with $5,000 - more than most could afford to play with. You can choose from five different game types (5 Card Draw, 7 Card Stud, Texas Hold'em & Omaha), each of which varies the rules slightly.

Choose between three table types: standard, casino and traditional. The first is a standard felt-covered table, the second an emulation of a casino table, and the third is a common or garden wooden table.

Games can be played either against the computer, or for a more interesting game, against real opponents over the internet. In the latter case you can host a game or join a game already in progress.

Wild cards are available, with a choice between deuces, aces and one-eyed jacks.

Be warned, however, that the playing area is a little small, and some table types don't use the best viewing angle.
