• The amount of times I've seen three of the four people end with like a full house. That doesn't happen in poker.
• That's probably its biggest weak point for me is that it it almost feels like there should be a a cutoff point where you can't use that swirl symbol anymore and say, "What's your hand?"
• The game feels a little ultimately it's a great idea that feels ill-fitting at any given moment along its trajectory.
• This kind of strips away a lot of that stuff, which I think will strip away too much for a lot of people.
