I've finally managed to release version 2. The delay was mostly due to fear of upsetting the user base with breaking changes.

Version 2 includes:

- Frictionless accounts: added registration so you can save progress but no personal info or email.

- Deep play stats: Track lifetime RTP (Return to player), max win/loss streaks, winning hand counts and more.

- Leaderboards & Cash out: Cash out wins above the free play level, feeding into leaderboards for bank balance, RTP% (after 50 hands of play), and leaderboards that reward grinders

- Mobile stability - I've completely rewritten the communications routines both on server/client side. Mobile can be flaky, so the client handles silent auto-retries in the background without interrupting gameplay.

- Updated UI: New crisp graphics for playing cards

Obligatory tech stack info: serverside PHP / MySQL & client is coded in Godot 3.5.

I'd love to hear your feedback & I hope you all enjoy the new version!
