Greetings,
I just wanted to share my experience with game that is right now on Steam daily sale.

Now, I played and liked Poker Night 1 a lot, but now that Poker Night 2 is on sale, I thought what the hell and I bought it, and I am playing it right now. While Poker Night 1 had a lot of funny comments...the ones in second one are...hurtful one might say. For example, I went all in and Sam said "I thought we are friends". To which Max replied "It is playing computer poker all by himself, he doesn't have any friends". Now I have to say I was shocked by this comment. Since when did games learn to be rude to us? I have to say I lost all my games after first one, because comments like these simply threw me off my game.

Not saying I took them to my heart or anything, but you just don't expect it. Except from nice new approach to commentaries what else to say? You get nice Texas Hold Em poker simulator for few bucks, with unlockables for both Borderlands 2 and TF2 (I am definitely NOT saying you should buy it just because of this, but I bet there are quite few loonies out there who are planning on buying this, or already did just because of this).

The game itself has unlockables as well, for example new playing decks, tables, even different kinds of chips.

tl;dr - Buy this game, play it, enjoy it, get hurt or amused by comments of your fellow players.

The truth hurts, doesn't it ? :P
That's Max for you
Be prepared to not be able to skip dialogue and listen to the 3 bad lines that they've written for Glados anytime you press anything, over and over again. Or hear the same reaction to an all in. Or have an unintuitive and slow menu.

It's a pretty cool game with some fun dialogue, but boy does it have some serious annoyances.

I already bought it when I preordered the game.
The best poker in the one in Red Dead Redemption, where you can shoot everyone if you lose.
There's also video poker in God Hand, but I don't trust anything Gene can't Dragon Kick.
I had to laugh at the commentary in Portal 2 - "Can someone please put Momo back together? Again?". Frankly at first I was like, "Whaaa?" but then it got fairly hilarious since I am so terrible. I started deliberately making stupid mistakes just to see what comment I'd get next and so much hilarity ensued that my husband came in to see what was making me laugh so riotously.

I feel always amused by comments in this game "Player lost due to lack of funds...and intelligence" "80% of you will lose tonight, and 100% of you will die eventually...math is fun...dont you think?"

It is indeed! Whenever I'm tempted to complain about some ache or pain, I realize that the alternative is so much worse ;-)
I got the first Poker Night in the last Humble Bundle, maybe I'll play it after I'll finish Puzzle Quest which I bought 5 years ago to only play it for 3 hours. It's a bore, but I'm already over 30 hours in the game, so I need to get it out of the way.
If I bought it, I'd probably lose the poker face that not knowing the rules to poker gives.
Right now I am in -120 000 dollars....well...crap...
At first I thought there was a long-awaited sequel to this game, which I still own on CD.

Obviously not!
