Sin City Holdem offers lobbies of games (roughly 5,000 active players at review time) broken down by minimum bet. Games start at $400k buy-ins and go up to $12 billion for a chance to get in on the action. Tournament-style play is also offered, requiring registration to compete.

Achievements are in place, as is a screen where players can view their wins with specific hands and other statistics. A section called “My Items” and an in-game store have icons present, but are not yet implimented.
Social features at present include friend invites and gifting of chips to friends. The game also has a friends leaderboard and real-time online friends list.Sin City Holdem is monetized through the use of Facebook Credits to purchase additional chips.
