— Welcome to Texas Hold’em Poker on Scratch — Try your luck (and skill) against three AI opponents! If you win enough, your username and score will be shown on the High Scores page. Works on mobile devices! The “How to Play” section briefly describes how the game works and provides hand rankings. Much more detailed explanations on game mechanics and strategy can be found online. Feel free to ask questions about the game, and please report any bugs/glitches you see. I went through several trials to fix all the glitches I caught, although it's possible some still exist.
