ThwartPoker Inc. brings an exciting extension of poker to the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. Become a better thinker, strategist and poker player while sharing hours of fun and enjoyment with friends playing Hold’em Battle or No-betting Hold’em Blitz.
Player card selection now replaces random dealing. This adds a third dimension to the betting and bluffing of traditional poker to enrich the multiplayer experience. These apps are for the casual gamer or serious poker player. They are easy-to-learn, yet hard-to-master and can be played in minutes or for hours.
In poker, as with hundreds of other card games, cards are first shuffled and then randomly dealt. However, in our game each player first privately selects a card from the same face up, randomly generated deck of cards. Then any player in a conflict situation is dealt a No-value THWART card. Otherwise, a player is dealt his/her selection.
Card selection now becomes a major component of gameplay. With it one can try to either improve one’s own hand or block another player…or both.
