Ads before and after rounds. Look somewhere else.

So. Let’s get the good out of the way first. Don’t worry it won’t take that long— Interesting production values for a cheap little app. It’s “Free” there are generous features for letting you play nominally cheap, and it can serve as a fantastic endurance tool. As poker is actually a fairly slow game outside of online experiences and requires extended periods of concentration and focus—something the game is good at simulating. And now for the problems. First off, and this is the big one. The game out and out cheats. Now. That’s a claim that often raises an eyebrow. Especially for otherwise experienced poker players or just the average savvy consumer. I myself doubted that when I first came across reviews alleging much the same. But that was a year back, when I was new to poker. Having transitioned to other actually live experiences I can contextualize this more effectively: Poker is an information game. You watch your opponents for where and how they bluff, you take them to a reveal of their hands—or let other people call them down and do the same and you establish “ranges” otherwise defined as the list of hands a player is comfortable playing from and is likely to bluff or fall with. And if you have any basic interest in following through on that you will quickly find that opponents have duplicate suited hands. Sometimes of hands YOU HAVE. You’ll find that a given npc’s range is based on their position in the current tournament or game you’re playing and will switch randomly out of nowhere. You’ll notice that certain hands and arrangements play more often. (Play long enough and you’ll notice you’re significantly more likely to land a full house than a flush by a wide margin.) And I really could go on, but instead I’ll simply point towards the fact that there is an insufferable amount of ads and options meant to get you to buy in. Playing this game like a poker player worth their salt will leave you needing to hit the cash shop. And playing the game like it wants you to will turn you into a bonafide fish. It’s such a shame too. Because this could have been a good introduction to poker for so many people. Instead, I can only recommend you run—not walk—away from this product for greener pastures if you’re new. And if you’re an older player you already ran screaming the other way . Genuinely the only people I could recommend this too would be people in the bejeweled or Tetris mold. People who don’t mind playing a few levels and throwing a few dolla

Just like the rest of the online games

Was fun but once u get to level 13, in order to get to level 14 you must pay to keep on playing. Also as soon as you learn how the a.i. plays, its ez to win every tournament.

game is unbelievably rigged against you. you’ll fold with a 2 and a 7 and the AI will deal a flop that would’ve given you a full house. Then, you’ll call with pocket aces and get beat by someone who gets three of a kind.

First this game looks and feels a lot like the WSOP app and it plays really well. The worst part about this app is I have seen more outlandish hands won by the computer than I’ve had pairs. The opponents clearly know what the outcome of the hand is going to be and will stay in far longer than a real opponent would. You’ll see either an outlandish raise prior to the flop, in which case your call, even with the best hand, will end up with the river beating you or you have to check until the river beats you so you don’t lose your seat. There’s no slow playing the computer either, if you check they won’t bet at all. Essentially if they’re consistently betting, they have something. If they’re checking, they want to trap you. It would be fair if you could trap them but there’s scant chance of pulling that off as they know your hand. Too many of the computer’shands do the following: 1st round of bets: If any comp raises more than 1/3 of their stack everyone folds, small raise weeds out weaker hands but only for computers, if you do the same they stay in) *Flop 2nd round of bets: If BB checks, the table checks; usually the winning hand is a low/mid pair or a hand that should have produced a value bet on the river. Should any player bet after a check, they have the winning hand. It’s one thing to get bad beats on the river, it’s another thing for computers to raise with hands like 10 | 3, or 2 | 9, or K | 4 all off suit when nothing landed until the river and all community cards showed higher draws / them drawing dead only to watch the river somehow give them exactly what they need to win with a exactly what they needed to take it. I’m talking having a 5D/A(s) only for no Aces or fives on the flop but the grab 2&8[D], miss in the turn but raise, they somehow magically hit. For example, I had a flush draw on the flop [7|2|K] , I bet half the pot **call. My opponent had a [7|4]off Next card [7]off, same bet **call. At this point it’s a 3 of a kind vs flush. Next card [J]off, I bet, **call. THREE OF A KIND VS what I’m representing A MADE FLUSH and the math is not on their side. They’re effectively drawing dead. Last card [7] and they complete the 4OAK. But no one in their right mind would call with a with a pair of 7’s vs a Flush draw on the flop and stay in it that long. In short, the computer is very predictable, it’s easy to know when they have a made hand and they only way for you to win at a full table is to play aggressively but only with good cards, or if you’

I can’t play more than 5 minutes of this game without getting a 2 minute add

The game starts off great but to progress past Atlantic City or do much of anything without paying you have to get past the high blinded AC tournament where the computer players will win with any two cards. You can see the where the developers set the choke point to try and get you to pay for imaginary chips. Nice try Diddy.
