Bo0ba's Poker
Imagine sitting at a virtual poker table inside Minecraft, seeing your hole cards and the community flop, turn, and river displayed in a clean graphical menu — all without typing a single command. That is exactly what Bo0ba's Poker delivers. This lightweight yet powerful plugin transforms your Spigot, Paper, or Purpur server into a fully functional Texas Hold'em casino, complete with automatic money handling, side pot calculations, and even rage-quit protection. Whether you want to host friendly card nights or add a competitive edge to your survival world, Bo0ba's Poker makes it effortless.
What Makes Bo0ba's Poker Stand Out?
Unlike older poker plugins that rely on chat commands and confusing text-based interfaces, Bo0ba's Poker puts the entire experience into an interactive GUI. Players can see their hand, the board, and their chip stack at a glance. The plugin also integrates deeply with Vault, so every blind, raise, and all-in automatically pulls from and deposits into the player's economy balance. No manual bookkeeping required.
Fully Visual GUI
The heart of Bo0ba's Poker is its optimized menu system. When you join a table, a custom inventory screen opens, showing your two private cards and the shared community cards as recognizable Minecraft items. The design is so intuitive that you never need a texture pack or resource pack — everything works out of the box. This visual approach makes the game accessible even to players who have never tried poker before.
Vault Economy Integration
Bo0ba's Poker for Minecraft hooks directly into any Vault-compatible economy plugin, such as EssentialsX. Blinds are collected automatically at the start of each hand, and players can raise, call, or go all-in with simple clicks. The plugin tracks every bet in real time, ensuring that the pot reflects exactly what is on the table. When a hand ends, winnings are instantly credited to the victor's account.
Advanced Side Pot Calculations
One of the most impressive technical feats is the flawless side pot math. When a player goes all-in with fewer chips than the current bet, Bo0ba's Poker automatically creates a side pot for the remaining active players. In the event of a tie, the split pot is distributed fairly down to the last decimal. This level of precision guarantees that every game feels like a real poker room, not a buggy mini-game.
Rage-Quit Protection
Nothing ruins a poker night faster than a player disconnecting mid-hand and freezing the entire table. Bo0ba's Poker solves this with built-in rage-quit protection. If someone logs out during the betting phase, the system instantly folds their hand or skips their turn, allowing the game to continue smoothly. This keeps the action flowing and prevents frustration for the remaining players.
Leaderboard and Multi-Language Support
Competition breeds excitement. The plugin includes a top winnings leaderboard that displays the five richest poker players on the server, giving everyone a goal to chase. Additionally, Bo0ba's Poker comes ready in both English and Polish, with all messages fully customizable in the config.yml file. Switching languages is as simple as changing one line, making it a perfect fit for international communities.
Commands at Your Fingertips
Thanks to a built-in tab-completer, players can navigate all commands effortlessly by pressing the TAB key. Here are the essential commands you will use:
- /poker help – Displays a list of all available commands.
- /poker join – Takes a seat at the poker table.
- /poker start – Begins the game (requires at least 2 players).
- /poker open – Reopens the GUI if you accidentally close it during your turn.
- /poker raise <amount> – Raises the current bet by the specified amount.
- /poker allin – Puts all your remaining balance into the pot.
- /poker top – Shows the TOP 5 players with the highest poker winnings.
How to Install Bo0ba's Poker for Minecraft
Getting started is straightforward, but you must meet a few requirements. First, your server needs to run on Spigot, Paper, or Purpur version 1.20 or newer with Java 17 or higher.
