The controls are very simple. Each time your turn comes up you have the option to call (A), fold (B) or raise (Y). Holding down the right trigger while selecting your play shows confidence while the left demonstrates uncertainty, allowing you to tentatively raise your bet or slam down your cards in disgust when folding. If you already know what play you’re going to make you can pre-load it and your avatar will act as soon as its your turn. A number of chip tricks, such as making one dance across your knuckles, are unlocked as you level up and can be performed with d-pad combinations to pass the time.
