Description

Video Poker was developed by Ron McRae. Ron lives together with his family in Illinois / USA and worked with RCX/NXT since 4 years. He is well known as the builder of the amazing slot machines - and one of them was the “Best Mindstorms Machine” at Brickfair in Washington DC in summer 2008.
