Topic: Chinese Poker (Pusoy) - On what crypto-gambling site can I play this? (Read 369 times)

Ok I understand you.
In reality, poker in any variant except NLH has low traffic in its pvp version in 100% crypto casinos. And yes, Chinese poker is actually quite fun and entertaining to play as a table game, the point issue and adding any monetary value adds additional excitement.

_________-

That's right, that's why I used "" in forbidden. The Chinese manages to play in China anyway, the Chinese are among the highest bettors out there. The fact of the existence of Macau and its success is due in large part to China.

Roobet doesn't have a card game like that.

It's very difficult to find a crypto-gambling site that offers that game. I think it was also difficult to find in a fiat-based online casino. The game was mostly done thru person against person.

I don't know why its presence is limited online. Gambling sites should add that game and see how popular it is globally.

I'm not a poker player but I believe Roobet offer this kind of poker game.

Almost every form if gambling is forbidden in China except their national lottery but in spite ban place on casinos and the firewall policy internet used by the Chinese government people still access crypto gambling sites.

No, I'm talking Poker in the crypto market, Chinese Poker may be popular all over the world, but not in the crypto market. As you can see, there are not many casinos in this space that allow us to bet on it. One thing is that I am more familiar with Chinese Poker, it is quite popular in my country. I usually play with my friends instead of betting on casinos.

Casinos are "forbidden" in China.

However in their backyard they have Macao, the Vegas of Asia.

Chinese Poker is originally from China but it is played all over the world, it is something like Pizza. 

There are probably crypto casinos that offer Chinese poker. I've read here that SWC used to offer this poker variant but then it was unfortunate that almost none plays it so that's probably the reason why it is taken down from the platform. But this has nothing to do with the Chinese government's take on crypto activities. Chinese poker is being played in other parts of the world. And the game is not owned by China.

Crypto gambling is not dependent on the Chinese market so there won't be any drop.

Do you believe these multi-million industry will gonna drop heavily just because of a one specific game?
I might believe you if most of the game will be restricted from playing in casinos but who gave them permission to stop using it and why would they have to restrict using chinese poker in the first place?

You are talking nonsense although, every gambling games have their own different variation so they can't just stop someone from using it because it has their name on it.

Do you think that China's ban on crypto-related activities in the near future will affect gambling activities like this? It is clear that Chinese Poker will only be popular in China and now, it is being restricted anymore, which will cause the gambling market to drop heavily. I don't think there are any non-Chinese casinos that offer Chinese poker to their customers 

I also find a list of sites offering Chinese poker but they are limited to Chinese players only and not for outside players but most probably if you like maybe VPN can help you out.This is link for them :
https://www.top10pokersites.net/top-10-chinese-poker-sites

I was unable to find any other and came to know about this poker just from your post and thanks for sharing this and if happens I would also play this variant.

I think most people who play Chinese Poker are probably Asians and mostly Filipinos because I have seen this game in a lot of gatherings and illegal gambling houses. This is probably a staple game in funerals in the Philippines.

If this is the Chinese Poker (Pusoy) that OP is referring to, then I have indeed played several games of this one in the past. This is one interesting game which is quite quick. If I am not mistaken, there is no need to draw a card or two or to even put community cards on the table. What you will receive are all the 13 cards which is dealt once and you would arrange it in such a way that the bottom 5 is the strongest. Sadly, I have never encountered this kind of poker online.

Chinese Poker or Pusoy is the most interesting four player and thirteen card game app, and is becoming popular in the Asian Community today.
I can play with my loved ones or with family and friends, and also give out unlimited free chips that will never run out of money to play, and I think Pusoy is an interesting game to fill my spare time, and initially confusing or a bit complicated and but over time it can be understood.

I like pusoy a lot and honestly, I didn't know that it was originated in China. I was just playing it with my friends and in a game app but I haven't tried playing it in Casino sites. I just hope that they would consider adding this game so other people would recognize that it's really entertaining. Other Nationalities aren't familiar with it yet so I guess that's the reason why most gambling sites don't offer this kind of game.

Same with both of you, I still see my neighbors play this game.  Very popular to our community,

As being played by locals either friends or relatives who's finding relaxations and just the same with rich people who are doing

social gatherings, not sure as well if this kind of game will include to any popular crypto gambling site unless part of the team who knows how the game works will add it up and start advertising the game.

It's probably a lot of Asians in the gambling board, most likely Filipinos who have grown and play this game, either as past time with families (similar to US, wherein families play poker), or play with someone with bets in the middle.

There are casinos that offer this as far as I know, but only few are playing like in SwC, so even if many Asians knows this game, they still prefer to play it offline.

Thanks for the detailed explanation! I played Chinese poker only once, at SwC, maybe a year ago... even back then it was hard to see players on Chinese, Stud, Pineapple,  and Short Deck tables! Today, it's probably like a mission impossible!
 

... and it's getting worse! I just opened SwC, except few Hold'em tables all others are empty! And it's terrible with tournaments too, looks like only freerolls are being played...

There are online site that has Pusoy or chinese poker available but OP's question is if there are crypto gambling site that has offering bets for this and that is the problem here.
because as i am searching for couple of days already and finding nothing at all.
Maybe as we are speaking here there are plans from other site that needs to be implemented .

It is the same poker, only that it is played for points and to each point you assign a value "$, BTC, etc", depending on the type of hand, you earn points and depending on the version that is played bonus points are assigned, e.g. how to win the three lines (base, middle and top).

You receive 13 letters that you must organize in the best way:
(Top)3 cards
(middle)5 cards
(base)5 cards

The upper value should never be better than the lower one, the trio is the best combination at the top.

That's the traditional version, which was not really very popular. And in fact it didn't even exist online.

Over time a variant of poker became popular when some of the most famous poker professionals started playing with each other, but a version called OFCP (Open Face Chinese Poker) would start to be available online.

That initial version OFCP you receive five cards, later on you receive one at a time and you must be accommodating to form the best hands that beat your opponent. Both players can see what moves your opponent is trying to make.

The game grew due to the contribution of the same professional players who added variations in the bonuses and in the rules.

Thus arises perhaps the most popular and is the one I like OFCP Pinneaple available on SWC, with this version you receive 3 cards at a time instead of one and discard one.

This version is so new that it only exists online for a few years but it has existed offline for at least 10 years (OFCP) and it is not of Chinese origin, although it is based on traditional Chinese poker.

According to wikipedia, his invention is credited to a Russian professional player, but according to gossip from hallways in poker clubs, the only thing he did was gather the contributions of different very famous professional players and credit himself for the entire value of the information provided.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_poker

The OFCP version should definitely be more popular outside of China, although whatever is played with cards the Chinese always come first.  

if it is so popular there should be some on-line opportunities to play in asian on-line casinos. I am not really familiar with the regulations and the casinos, but my assumption is that you would need to understand the local language to play? Anyway, I am interested in learning about this so keep on looking and report if you find something useful. The game itself seems know to everyone but me

Like the majority of answers , there is nothing yet offering for Pusoy in crypto betting but if you will push it together with many Filipino(in which i believe that this is popularize, because the chinese variants are different from this) so there can be possibilities that one day there will be a site that offers this to anyone.
something like that mate, i guess this must be upgraded to be familiarized for the whole world and not just asian.

I won't say that it is not popular because it is a go to game in my country when there's cards besides Tong-its in any events but mostly funeral and gatherings. It's just a matter of what game we have grown with and to say that it's unpopular isn't a valid thing.

I used to play the game before, it is prevalent in our province and it is still being played now. I mean it is entertaining to play and definitely good playing with your friends and workmates after a hard day's night. Sadly, this card game is not as popular as Texas hold'em Poker and with that this is not really talked about in the cities. So I guess the answer to your question is that there might not be a website that has this kind of game and I don't think it will be popular enough to have its gambling websites.

^ Definitely right, even in terminology, in each country they had different terminology that they used, you say (call) and also the (bet).
But why you did not find any games that something profitable than you currently failed. If I were you, just find another way and analyze that you will be paid. Nevertheless, it needs for you to study which gambling site has good to pick to us.

You are absolutely right about its name in Vietnam  It's nice that you can come up with this information just by searching. In short, this is a fairly popular game in Vietnam, however, it is not popular on betting sites, not even on any crypto casinos in Vietnam. As for the OP's needs, I think it's hard to do, unless he does a search through the source in China, since only that country has casinos that offer Chinese Poker.

It's easy to learn, the ranks are based on poker and you just need to put your best build in the lowest deck in your hand and try to arrange for other ranks in your middle and upper deck.

I have heard that is a rather complex game, not like poker which in a way is about odds and relatively well known and studied. Such a complex game would require a substantial effort in implementation and has the problem that you would need to educate a robot to play on behalf of several users until you have enough of a userbase to launch it on standalone. I guess this is only worth if there is plenty of people willing to play the game. Is this very popular in China?

I think OP is looking for something where the money is at stake and I am too because I do like to play Chinese Poker too although there's not a lot of it online since it's limited to 4 players.

havent know a crypto gambling site that offers pusoy but i know an app that you can play pusoy and other card games using real money . the app was called tongits go ,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tongitsgo.play   . after you install you need join a group because the main game are for free play only . its in the group where you can exchange your money for chips . they use chips as in game currency but you can exchange this chips back to a real money in the group that you join .

Make out some search and this do mostly Google play application.

Just verify when downloading something.

Look at this thread Is there an online casino offering Chinese Poker?, it has been asked previously several times in some other threads as well.
I suggest you to search it first before creating a new thread, otherwise it will be just repetitive thread for the same topic.
IMO, it is not really popular game in the crypto gambling industry so I doubt you'll find some sites to play the game with your crypto.

This is very true. Philippines is one of the countries in asia that plays pusoy. I've always seen neighbors playing pusoy and they even invited me to play but I'd rather not since they are playing with fiat money. When you mention pusoy in gambling site or casino, I never heard, read or know other person or people wanted to play pusoy in a gambling site or casino using cryptocurrency.

According to the website above, Chinese Poker is quite popular in Asia not just the Philippines. Each of them has their own names for that game, Sap Sam Cheung/ in Vietnam and Luosong Pai Jiu in China. In the Philippines, it is commonly known as Pusoy.

I'm not sure if this game is offered to some popular crypto-gambling website as it's not that popular in many countries. I searched on google and swcpoker only offers it and I can't find any reviews regarding that website's credibility.

No, it is not common to Chinese but it a variant of a poker and more popular in the Philippines.

And if I'm not mistaken, it is only there that this is played. It's good that SwC is offering this, however, as others have said, there is no traction amongst players because it is not well known outside of the Philippines.

On the contrary, like any other poker games and variations, it is not hard to learn the rules of this game, very simple to say the least.

It’s very rare to see a crypto casinos to have this kind of Chinese poker and seriously, I always play this one every time I visit my old friends since this has become our ultimate bonding. If you guys know where to play this one feel free to share, I’m sure some of us wants to try this online and use our crypto to gamble, Chinese poker is already part of our culture honestly.

Unfortunately I don't know of any sites offering this. It's interesting to learn about new games but it seems that this is not very popular outside of China, with no large tournaments played (according to wikipedia) since 1995/1996. It seems like a very dumbed down version of poker and I'm not sure whether it would be very entertaining. One of the hardest parts for new players in poker is learning the ordering of winning hands and you still have to do that for this version, but then a lot of the fun is sapped out of it by removing the stages and bluffing element. It should probably get a name rebranding because it seems to share little in common with the skilled version of the game and heavily relies on luck.

It's somehow similar to the regular poker game although with very variation. Chinese casino gambling sites should have this listed in their gambling options since it's only common to them. You can access their casino features if you reside in china because I believe there might be In restrictions to their gambling sites for gamblers outside china.

I also known this as a card game here in my local, though, I don't know if there are existing poker websites have this and it has the different game play than other poker as you can win in 3 different category, as I remember its the heads, body and tail (that's the term in my local). To identify real players should be known about or there's something a verification or else it will be difficult to win to bots.

We need to verify first if they were really paying gamblers who desires to bet on this kind of pusoy game. As I've known this game, it's common in native card players at my local place. It can be played by individuals even young and old can do same thing despite of the poverty they are undergoing. That's their form of past time, as well as lucky source of fortune to earn lucky winning profit. I don't know if that online gambling using this certain principle will benefit interested small time gamblers.

It also happen to me where I play poker using zynga poker app for longer time needed before I learned how to play. Later on, I play poker risking fiat money but didn't risk too much but luckily for me poker games is widely used in gambling sites. How about swc?, I even have received notification if I want to join or not.

Yup, I played Chinese poker there too but mostly play the open face, pineapple version.  It’s sad cos there’s not much traffic at SWC and it’s getting worse today..  Even at the lowest stakes.  The lowest stakes should be the first to get aggressive development in a poker economy imho.

Did the Zingplay app influence your decision to test your skills with real money? 

I'm also looking for sites that offer this game but did not find the time to really test my skills also as I'm very busy IRL.

If you can find a site and need someone to fill the slot, shoot me a pm as I'm willing to play this game with real money/crypto also.

Yes, indeed, SwC I tried like a year ago, (https://swcpoker.club/).

But I haven't come back yet, I know this is very popular to Filipinos. Maybe you can invite your friends to try it out, specially in this pandemic and see how it goes for your mate.

And I think SwC has gained enough reputation here, they have been like Poker tournaments.

I have played Chinese poker in its different variants in SWC and a site in which if I have time that I do not play coinpoker.

But the traffic is very low if not to say that it is practically zero, well if you can get someone but they will only play a few points and they disappear.

I play Chinese Poker but I have yet to encounter a crypto casino offering such game. I'm not looking for one either. I'm satisfied physically playing it every once in a while with friends. But you might want to check out https://www.betonline.ag/. There is Chinese Poker in there and cryptocurrencies are accepted. I am not sure though if your kind of Chinese Poker is exactly the kind offered on that platform. There might be variations. I've played a couple variations of Chinese Poker. They might just be local variations, though.

Does anyone know a crypto-gambling site that offers a game called Chinese Poker?

This is not your typical and usual Poker game. More information here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_poker

Want to test my skills in a gambling site, with an actual money on risk, as I only played with no-risk on some poker game apps.

- The site should be paying even it's not popular.
- Players are verified to be real and we are sure weren't against a robot.
