Great achievement list for a Poker game. Will require players to do some of the more risky techniques. Big risk = achievements apparently!.

 

I just hope that many of the 'win this showdown by doing this or that' achievements don't require you to be playing in a multiplayer game. Now, don't get me wrong, I will be playing this title almost exclusively for the multiplayer. But opportunities to get achievements like: "Get all remaining opponents to fold on the river with three or more diamonds on the board." are likely to present themselves, however if everyone is looking for them, it will be harder to achieve. Whereas the AI should be fairly easy to bluff via High % situation win conditions like above.

 

Glad to see they put together a solid achievement list. Really excited for this now. Any idea of release date?

You can get it now from the Canadian marketplace but the servers are down so you cant play it :(

sorry for going off topic

 

That's excellent! Shouldn't be long now. Mine own fault for asking an off topic question in my own thread :/

 

And back on topic:

 

My vote for hardest achievement goes to:

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2579/-9cxzw==.jpgDown the Toilet: Lose a Showdown with a flush.

 

or

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2579/UPhjBew=.jpgNaval Battle: Win a Showdown in which more than one player reveals a full house.

 

 

Even if the flush or full house are on the table, it's still luck of the draw who has the better combo.

If those are the 2 hardest achievements then we got very lucky with this list. Both of those should come easily enough in normal play. There doesn't seem to be anything as time consuming as the 'Win with 10 4-of-a-kinds' from the last game.

 

After perusing the full list I can't see anything that will pose too much of a problem (unless you always fold 7 2 offsuit every time you get it - personally, I always like to see the flop unless there's a big pre-flop raise).

 

The only one that could be a hassle is the 'Earn level 100' one depending on how slow the levelling up process is. But even that shouldn't be a problem for a poker fan - hence the name of the achievement, I guess.

Play at all three table locations in Caesars Palace, Harrah's New Orleans, and the Amazon Room.

 

This achievement is glitched for me.... :(

I indeed played in all of 3 locations, but it not unlocked

 

Unlocked for me when playing one of the last Pro Takedown's that opened up the Amazon level.

Your right. Sooner or later all achievement opportunities will present themselves.

The leveling system seems fair, however for people playing more for achievements then true poker fans, the grind might be a chore.

 

I'm against anyone playing public games to boost, but this is an achievement website, so maybe someone will come up with a technique to boost XP in a private multiplayer game.

 

 

Another tough one for poker newbies is Chair Glue. Maybe it's because we are still in beta, so it takes a little bit to get a game going. But competition is solid out there at the moment and winning 1st in 10 games of 9 people will take some determination.

 

 

In other news I posted an achievement guide here: link

Been on the site for 5 years, about time I start contributing. Feel free to share any tips or suggestions.

Is it locked to single player or pro takedowns? I've also played ranked tournaments in all 3 locations but it did not unlock for me either.

Do pro takedowns to unlock the casinos then just play anything in each area until you have played every table. Most people don't seem to understand there are at least 3 tables for each casino and they are random. Just keep playing. Don't try the same thing over and over. ;)

All the tables look the same. What's different about them?

It's quite hard to see a difference in table locations. I have the achievement and its still isn't obvious.

 

All i know is that wether your playing single player or multiplayer - there are at least 3 tables per "Venue" for example the amazon room - will have 3 table locations in itself.

 

So technically you have to sit @ 9 tables. = 3 in each across the 3 venues.

 

i would recomend starting on amazon room - playing 10 1vs1 ring games against computer then doing same for harrah's. You more than like have all locations done for caesers palace before you got the hump and looked on here for the answer :)

I've got a question about Nice Quads. How does it work if you buy back in? Like if the buy in is 500 and you've bought back in once, do you need to make 2000 or 4000?

 

Doesn't matter how many times you re-load, if you're in a 500 chip table, having 2000 chips should earn you the achievement.

Caesars Palace:

  • Escalators behind dealer

  • Dealer facing a pool

  • Dealer facing a spiral staircase

 

Harrah's New Orleans: (Level 10)

  • Slots to the left and right of dealer

  • Two Jester displays in front of and to the left of the dealer

  • Three TV screens behind the dealer (the same jester displays from the previous one can also be seen from this table)

 

Amazon Room: (Level 20)

  • Table roped off

  • Red barriers surround table

  • Gold bracelets behind dealer

 

One other note: This would not unlock for me by using multiplayer games to get the casinos I hadn't unlocked, but it unlocked as soon as I played the Amazon tables in single player (previously played the other 6 in single player).
