PS4
There is no campaign to finish: alternate between tournament wins, special items that appear unexpectedly and trophies for specific hands. Start with a Hard win to get the only difficulty requirement out of the way. Then use normal tournaments to build up unlocks and watch for opponents putting a special item on the table instead of their usual chips.
The 2026 Skunkape Games PS4 remaster of Telltale’s first Poker Night. Poker Night 2 on PS3 is a different game and has no platinum.
- List: 21 trophies, including the platinum.
- Mode: Play against the computer; no online opponent required.
- Difficulty: One tournament win on Hard is enough.
Win one tournament on Hard
Set the difficulty to Hard before starting the tournament. Do not confuse winning a hand with winning the tournament: you need to eliminate the table. When the board gives everyone a strong combination, consider whether your hole cards improve it before committing much of your stack. Once the trophy unlocks, switch back to Normal for the remaining goals.
- Check Win a Game, Hard at the end of the tournament.
Stack wins for decks and tables
Set the buy-in to the lowest value, 1,000 in-game dollars, for shorter tournaments. Tournament wins progressively unlock tables, and every third win earns a deck while any remain. Check Unlocks between tournaments. If you already have the table trophy, keep winning: the final decks can require more games.
- Count first-place tournament finishes, not pots won.
Personally eliminate the player who bought in with an item
Sometimes Max, Strong Bad, The Heavy or Tycho announces that he is buying in with his item. You must personally eliminate that character in that tournament. If another player takes his final chips, winning the tournament does not recover the item: watch for low stacks and try to face the target when you can cover his wager.
- Track the four items you have earned and prioritise the offers you still need.
Finish the hand and showdown trophies
Straights, flushes and full houses must win the hand; making one while the pot goes elsewhere does not count. For Slow Play, try checking on the river with a made hand such as a straight, flush or full house when nobody has bet ahead of you. For Kicker Trouble, look for a shared pair and reach showdown with a higher kicker. The 6-and-9 trophy needs both as hole cards.
- Save focused cleanup for a high-card showdown win, three kings and the 6-and-9 starting hand.
Attempt pot streaks and all-ins when the board gives you a chance
Rushing requires three pots in a row in a single tournament: track the streak and start counting again when it breaks. Down to the Green takes two consecutive all-in wins, while Triple Through needs at least two opponents in the pot when you go all-in. Treat them as separate goals: a large multiway pot is not automatically the start of a winning streak.
- After winning an all-in, check the streak before changing games.
Trophies to watch
Win a Game, Hard
Win a tournament on hard difficulty.
Set Hard before the tournament; one tournament win is enough.
Deck Builder
Unlock all card decks.
Check Unlocks every three tournament wins, even after finishing the tables.
Kicker Trouble
Win a showdown where you and an opponent have same hand (pair or better) and you have a better kicker.
A shared pair and a higher kicker in your hand make a useful showdown target.
Triple Through
Win a pot with two or more opponents when you are all in.
Look for at least two opponents staying in the pot while you commit all your chips.
Special Item: Tycho
Knock out Tycho after he's bought in with his special item.
Wait for Tycho to buy in with his item, then make sure you take his last chips yourself.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need online play or real money?
No. The game controls the opponents and the buy-in uses tournament currency.
Can I still earn the item if someone else eliminates its owner?
Not in that tournament. Wait for it to be offered in another game and perform the knockout yourself.
Does this apply to Poker Night 2?
No. This guide covers the first game’s PS4 remaster; Poker Night 2 has a PS3 list without a platinum.
