HD Poker News

HD Poker prides itself on being a fair and trusted gaming platform.

HD Poker has received official certification for Card Shuffler / RNG via one of the most prestigious independent testing laboratories, Gaming Laboratories International, LLC (GLI). This means that the card shuffler used in HD Poker meets the highest possible standards for Random Number Generation (RNG), which is the same standard used in Real Money.

In a game like Poker, the order in which the cards are dealt is critical. The RNG algorithm used determines the sequence in which cards are drawn from the deck. By using a certified RNG algorithm, HD Poker guarantees that this sequence is random and thus, the outcome of the game is random and does not follow any pattern.

Ensuring an authentic poker experience is of the utmost importance to our team. Official certification of our RNG to ensure fair dealing is just one of the many steps that we are taking to provide the best poker gameplay experience possible.
