This must have been the last strip poker game for the Commodore 64 (Strip-Tease Ventti is from the same year, but it is blackjack, not poker), and it was never finished. There's only a preview version with a single opponent, Traci Adell, Playboy Playmate for July 1994. It was an ambitious project for the Commodore 64, but it does show that this platform could display color photographs in a, well, decent way. Had it been finished, it would have outshone Artworx Strip Poker and would have been at least on par with Hollywood Poker Pro.

Traci Adell

Traci Adell, the sole opponent in Decent Strip Poker, was Playboy Playmate for July 1994. She was 25 years old at the time. She was born in New Orleans but moved to L.A., where she found her home. She had a few small roles in movies, starting with Dumb & Dumber in 1994. In 1996, she stopped working for Playboy, but continued acting for a while. Her last role was as Julia in the low-budget action movie Deadly Currency, 1999. She now works for UCLA as a coordinator and instructor of mathematics professional development institutes for elementary school teachers in the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Michal Bačík, the programmer of Decent Strip Poker, has been around since at least 1988, when he wrote the platformer Powers of Gloom: In Hood to Prohibit. Between 1992 and 1997, he wrote at least half a dozen C64 games for German publishers. Later he was lead programmer for Hidden & Dangerous, perhaps the first widely successful Czech Windows game. Finally he founded Lonely Cat Games, a company that originally developed games for the PC and various portable platforms, but meanwhile specializes in applications for mobile devices.
