This game is a massive departure from other poker games of the early 1982-84 period. Its black background, custom font and presumably machine code implementation with slick, fast-moving playing cards sets it apart from previous games, betraying the fact it is of the later 1986 era.

Likewise, the user interface is of a more simplified, "arcade-like" design. Here we don't manually type playing decisions or amounts to bet into clunky INPUT fields, but instead we cycle through a preset menu with the SPACE bar and activate our choices with ENTER. The betting structure is also fixed, meaning there is no need to directly enter numeric values anyway.

it's a good implementation of an exciting poker variant, and for "stud poker" on the speccy is recommended for card players.
