This game was so quick and so much fun we played it a bunch of times in one sitting! Not having a poker background, I found it extremely useful to have people talk out loud about what the current 'trending' combos were.
The game itself is fantastic. I wanted something that my kids could play individually and it definitely does the trick. The game arrived damaged, not because of board game bliss, but damaged prior to packaging. The manufacturer has yet to get back to me unfortunately.
