Holdem or Foldem: Texas Poker

Why I cannot update ?

I have been playing this game for over a year. Lately, the game will load but after approximately 40 seconds, the game shuts down and I has to reload it. For a while, the game shut down would only happen one time and then you could reload and play without it repeating. For the last week, it shuts down after 40 seconds every single time you load it. I’ve made sure my software is up to date, I’ve downloaded the most recent version of the game, and my internet has been stable. I’ve paid for upgraded game play and now it’s unusable. The only help I’ve received from their tech support is suggesting all the things I’ve already done - and told them I’d already done them. If you haven’t started playing this game, don’t start now.

Edit: I quit spending any money on the game and the percentages are getting worse. I now have recorded several thousand hands (large sample size) and I’m below 30% win rate on hands where I’m at least a 50% favorite. Edit: tonight I actually got back to back pocket aces. Went all in preflop. Lost both hands. Edit: So found another glitch. When you’re down to two people, and someone is all in, if you can still use emojis and chat words, then it won’t be the last hand so the person all in is going to win the hand. Only when you can use those functions will it be the last hand. For example, I had my opponent all in and before the flop came I used “good game” and although I was favored to win, I lost three straight. Only when I couldn’t use those features did I know it was the last hand. EDIT: With more than 1500 heads up hands, I have a better winning percentage when the games odds were less than 50% than I do with odds greater than 70%. You read that right. When I was a 70% lead to win, I’ve lost a greater percentage of those heads up than when I was less than 50% to win. I continue to play to kill time. I am not paying ANY money for chips or anything else while the game is such a fluke. I’d read a lot of reviews about bad beats and bots so I decided I’d do my own testing. Anytime I was heads ups all in or against all in, I’d take a screenshot to capture the “win percentage”. I’m assuming since that’s basic math, the win percentages are accurate. I then put it into a spreadsheet for calculating. I have several hundred hands now recorded with screenshots for win percentage and logged outcomes. Let me give you an example of the outcomes. I have about 100 hands where the win percentage for me was 70%-90% (average in those hands is 83%). In these hands I’m just under 50% in actual winning outcome. In a small sample size that can happen but in a sample size of 100, the likelihood of being below 50% is incredibly small. In hands I was 90% or greater to win, my actual win percentage is in the low 60% range. I’m continuing the record keeping, but I have enough hands recorded now to be able to say the algorithm they’re using for the cards and draws in WAY off. I’m happy to provide my documentation should the developers request. EDIT: In hands played this week, percentages still about the same. Right around 50% won on hands with winning % between 70-90. EDIT: Since I wrote my review, they’ve made a change where the percentages aren’t shown as quickly so making

Great

They will set the game up so that you give them real money and get fake money so they can make you use it so that you give them real money more than the fake money they give you.….be careful, you will get last carded so that you lose big bets.

If u You play they will make sure u lose until you buy more money.

A lot of fun whether it’s realistic or not. I know they have stated having way too many ads.

I play it all the time…

This game is broken every time you split a pot with another player you lose money. I just split a pot and went negative 4 million and I messaged their team. There response was there was not enough money in the pot so that is why I lost 4 million. That is not even possible. They really have no clue what they are doing and their system is broken. I deleted the app and wrote this review to save you all time from downloading and playing a garbage game with idiots that run it that have no idea how to play poker.

fun game play it all the time and great for people to learn poker for free and start understanding strategy
