CasinoTables ⭐ Real Poker, Blackjack & Ludo Tables Built In The World ⭐ Physical Chips ⭐ 1.21-26.2

Texas Hold'em, Blackjack and Ludo played on tables that actually exist in the world — not in a chat window, not in an inventory GUI. Every table is a physical arena in its own void world: seats, a dealer, pressure-plate buttons, floating card displays, and chips you pick up and place with your hands.

When a table closes it tears itself down and restores every player's inventory, position, gamemode, health and effects exactly as they were.

The three games

Texas Hold'em — 1–6 real players, empty seats filled by bots. You bet by taking chips out of your hotbar and dropping them into the 3×3 zone in front of your seat; how many you drop is your bet. Buttons at the seat handle call-fill, confirm, reclaim, all-in and fold. Hole cards are shown only to their owner through per-player holograms — nobody reads your hand over your shoulder.

Blackjack — 1–6 players, each playing the dealer, so a single player is still a full game. Hit, stand, double down, split up to four hands, insurance. Dealer stands on soft 17, blackjack pays 3:2. No rake at all: the dealer's rule advantage is the house edge.

Ludo — 2–4 players, 2/3/4 sheep pieces each, a full 48-square board with colour-coded jumps, a centre leap, capture-and-send-home and roll-a-six-to-go-again.

Chips are real items

Diamond block 1000 · Gold block 200 · Emerald block 50 · Redstone block 15 · Iron block 5 · Copper block 1

Right-click a chip in the air to break it into smaller ones, sneak right-click to merge back up. At the start of each betting round the plugin recalculates a sensible spread, so you always hold change small enough to call with.

Money

Chips are Vault currency, one to one. Players buy in for min(balance, carry limit), withdrawn when they sit down and paid back when they leave.

Rake is configurable and defaults to 0.5% of contested pots only. Chips that come back to you uncalled are never raked — that holds whether the hand ended at showdown or because everyone folded.

If a payout ever fails (economy plugin hiccup, player offline) the amount is written to a pending file and retried automatically. Money is never silently dropped.

Bots

Empty Hold'em seats are filled by six archetypes, assigned randomly per table:

• Hothead (novice) — plays almost anything, raises on impulse
• Calling Station (novice) — rarely raises, rarely folds
• The Rock (regular) — only good hands, but plays them softly
• Maniac (regular) — extremely aggressive, reads hands poorly
• The Assassin (pro) — tight-aggressive, folds and pressures correctly
• Old Fox (pro) — reads accurately and bluffs at the right moments

Skill is not cosmetic. It scales the Monte-Carlo sample count, adds a hand-strength misread margin, and weights how strictly the bot respects pot odds — a novice genuinely misjudges hands rather than merely betting differently.

Bots run entirely locally: no AI service, no network calls. Their chips never touch Vault. When a real player joins, a random bot is bumped rather than always the first seat.

Language

Every player-facing string lives in a language file — there is no hardcoded text anywhere. English and Chinese both ship, and both are written to plugins/CasinoTables/lang/ on first start, so you can read or edit either without unzipping the jar.

Set language: in config.yml to pick one. Your edits survive updates, and any key you delete falls back to the copy inside the jar — an update never wipes your wording and never leaves a blank message either. Adding a language means dropping a new file into that folder.

Hand histories store the message key rather than the finished sentence, so switching language re-renders the whole archive instead of leaving it half in the old one.

Requirements

• Paper 1.21 – 26.2, or Purpur. Not Spigot — the plugin uses Paper's world-creation and Adventure text APIs. Not Folia.
• The Vault API plus any economy plugin. Either the original Vault or VaultUnlocked works.
• Java 21 or newer.

Every release is boot-tested on all 14 Paper versions in that range before it ships. Paper published no build for 1.21.2 or 26.1, so those two point releases are not claimed.

Install

1. Drop the jar into plugins/
2. Start the server — three arena worlds and plugins/CasinoTables/ are created automatically
3. Run /casino
