Where to Find Poker Games in RDR2?<\/h2>\n

Just like in the first game, poker in Red Dead Redemption 2 can be found in multiple locations. Essentially, there are five different locations on the map where you can play poker: Valentine, Tumbleweed, Saint-Denis, Flatneck Station and Blackwater<\/strong>. Additionally, you will sometimes be allowed to play poker with your gang members at various campsites.<\/p>\n

Poker in Valentina and Saint-Denis is available at the local saloons. To play the game at Flatneck Station, you first must complete the mission Who Is Not Without Sin<\/i>. Poker in Blackwater and Tumbleweed is only unlocked once you complete all the missions.<\/p>\n

You can play poker only when the saloons and the stations are open. If the places are closed during your visit to the locations, you will have to wait until morning.<\/p>\n

Poker is also obligatory during a mission called A Fine Night of Debauchery<\/i>. During this mission, you will get help from your friend Leopold Strauss that will signal you what to do. However, you can also choose not to have his help and beat the game on your own, which will complete one of the mission\u2019s Gold Medal Objectives<\/i>.<\/p>\n
