What is Poker Duel?
Poker Duel is a poker-inspired strategy game built around five two-card hole sets instead of one traditional poker hand. Each player starts with five possible hole sets, chooses one set per round, and tries to make the strongest five-card poker hand using the shared community cards. The result is a faster duel format where timing, set selection, hand reading, and risk management matter every round.
The web version is focused on desktop play and basic phone compatibility. Mobile browser support is intentionally simple while a dedicated mobile app can be built later. That means the table, controls, points, lobby, shop, and help pages stay readable without relying on complicated phone-only overlays.
How matches work
Choose match points, set round points, deal the flop, select one unused hole set, reveal the turn, optionally use a hand swap or card swap, and reveal the river. The round then scores automatically. After all five sets are used, the match ends and remaining table points return to your available play points.
Virtual coins only
Play points are free entertainment counters for gameplay and cosmetics. They are not sold, have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money, cannot be transferred, cannot be redeemed for prizes, and do not represent a financial product.
Fair play focus
Online rooms use server-controlled decks and game state so players cannot choose cards locally. Refreshing or leaving an unfinished match can clear table-point progress to reduce abuse. Clean wins are intended to count only when the full match is completed.
