Live casino developers are finding new ways to bring slot-style excitement to traditional table games, and ICONIC21’s latest release takes that trend to the poker table. Launched on 22 October 2026, Gravity Poker combines Texas Hold’em-style dealer play with multipliers of up to 1,000x, adding a high-variance twist to a familiar card-game format.
The game becomes the fifth addition to ICONIC21’s Gravity Series, following titles built around blackjack, roulette, Sic Bo and a wheel game. Across the collection, the defining feature is a multiplier applied to a qualifying outcome in every round, rather than a separate bonus feature that players must wait to trigger.
Gravity Poker keeps the basic structure of Texas Hold’em but pits players against the dealer instead of other players. Each hand starts with two hole cards, followed by five community cards that can be used to form the strongest five-card hand.
After the flop, players decide whether to call or fold. That decision gives the game a familiar point of strategy, while the multiplier mechanic introduces another variable before the hand is settled.
The multiplier is selected randomly before each round and ranges from 10x to 1,000x. When a player’s qualifying side-bet combination matches the selected outcome and wins, the assigned multiplier boosts the payout. That puts the prospect of a large return into the regular flow of play, without requiring a separate bonus round.
Of course, the top multiplier is a potential outcome, not a typical result or a guaranteed payout. The game’s rules and paytable determine which combinations qualify and how winning bets are settled.
Players can also place two optional side bets, AA+ and The Pocket, which are settled independently of the main hand.
AA+ assesses the player’s hole cards alongside the flop, while The Pocket focuses exclusively on the two cards dealt at the start. Qualifying Pocket combinations include pairs and blackjack, defined here as an ace paired with a ten-value card.
Both bets can be placed before the hand develops, giving players another way to pursue a payout before the main game reaches its decision point. They also mean additional wagers can be placed beyond the core game, so understanding the individual rules and payouts matters before playing.
For ICONIC21, Gravity Poker extends a format built around keeping multipliers in play from round to round. Chief Product Officer Edvardas Sadovskis said the release brings the series’ established approach to one of the world’s most recognizable card games, broadening its reach beyond the formats already in the lineup.
The game is available to operator partners on desktop and mobile. ICONIC21 distributes its live casino portfolio through aggregators including BlueOcean Gaming and NuxGame, as well as direct operator agreements with brands such as Novibet and Winpot MX. The company did not announce any exclusive operator arrangements for Gravity Poker at launch.
