Key gameplay features include two flippers, three pop bumpers, two slingshots, seven stand-up targets, two drop targets, one spinning target, a kick-out hole, ball kicker, and ball return gate. A skill shot into the ball kicker and an end-of-ball bonus add an extra layer of challenge to the game.

The machine's design and art reflect its poker theme, with a polyurethane playfield featuring 3-digit match numbers. No designer is credited for this creation.
