OLD-SCHOOL COMPUTER POKER
06.05.09If you’re a degenerate gambler spawned from the Lascivious virtual concubines of online poker, you’ll appreciate this early EARLY version of what amazingly does pass as computer poker. It’s a post from the wonderfully nerdy vlog Chronogamer breaking down the game “Las Vegas Blackjack & Poker” from Intellivision. It hit the market in 1980, which makes the game older than many of you reading this.
Even as I can appreciate the work that goes into programming any sort of poker game, the sound design for the deal might be my favorite part. Too bad they didn’t take Neteller in those days.

the sad thing is is that I’m old enough to remember playing this on Intellivision back in the very early 80′s
I had that dealer at the Rio in Vegas earlier this year. He’s a bloody cheat.

I also had this game on the Intellevision when I was six.

I was a swimmer in the old man’s nutbag.
Wow you guys are losers. You were 10 in 1980, that makes you like 70. Im so glad I have my youth.
