someone should build a poker mini app that uses real money for chips

ok I have a rough game up and running... figured I'd build the entire game client side on web, then scaffold the mini app, then do some testing on ngrok live on FC (which I'll post the link for in case folks want to join, then move everything to a server and set up payments

I don’t know how the system works, but since my profession is poker, I’ll mention that players always doubt whether the app might manipulate the cards ( I’m referring to real money games ), In your system, is there a possibility for user side manipulation ? I mentioned the client side aspect because of that

oh yeah none of this should be handled on the client! just for testing purposes, then everything will go to a server.

the other thing is apparently using Math.random() to shuffle cards can be gamed, so I need to use the crypto.getRandomValues() instead

haha yeah definitely a lot of possibilities, can't think about that now tho!

I don’t fully know the technical side, but I know that both poker sites and players are constantly looking for ways to cheat, crazy stuff happens, and you have to play it super safe, the site is one thing, but poker players can be serious hackers, so imagine what could happen if the app had a vulnerability 😂
