Fun game, great graphics!
The only problem I have with this game is that I am somewhat clueless as to some of the rules, and what those chips with the letters on them are for, and how to redeem them, and for what purpose do I redeem them? I also don’t understand what “blinds” are. Other than that, I am thoroughly enjoying this game! Since I’m a jazz aficionado, I enjoy the music, too. I still don’t think I’m ready for the big time on TV just yet...

Glad you’re back
I loaded this on to my iPod Touch years ago and absolutely loved this game. Great graphics, good card action and betting. Then the Touch gave way to other brands of phones until finally I bought the iPhone 7. I hunted through the offline poker section of the App Store. Only found a handful of apps. I didn’t want to sign in to the world poker tour app and have to buy chips.

Then one day I found this version. Christmas arrived early this year. Thanks for bringing this back. It’s a straightforward yet engaging way to play.

Great game but i still hate you Apple
I hate you for taking it away in the first place! What was the point of that?! My game progress all gone... Can you tell I’m still bitter about it?! There hasn’t been a better poker game since and I tried many of them!

Good game horrible algorithm
I really enjoy the game but the algorithm is horrible. Very little reality in the game almost to the point you can anticipate what is going to happen. Example: player will move all for 50k only leaving 3k behind...when this happens push all in and the bot will fold. Another example: The bots will also call an all in with no draw and no pairs only to runner runner 2 pair. Once again, it’s a good game but would be better if more realistic algorithm was applied. If you can’t win at this game you have no reason playing poker at all. You can anticipate the moves of the bots. Went from 0 to 110 million +. I’ll keep playing until I get to 1 billion. Maybe another level after Macau would be good!

BUG FIX NEEDED.
Before I get into my review, if you’re a VoiceOver user there is a small bug that if you choose fold at the end of a round it’ll crash the app, for some reason the option for fold is still available even at the end of a round.

Review:
A fantastic, little addictive, great little time waster when you got a spare few minutes you can knock out a few rounds and over time you’ll amass a fortune - if you’re lucky.

I love how Apple have designed this app in such a way that you can use it with VoiceOver without making a special navigation method just for screen reader users which is my biggest complaint about “blind games” which don’t close the gap between sighted and blind players, this app does exactly what’s needed, and I’m very curious in the technologies used to make it accessible if Apple would be willing to reply and let me know - I’d love to spend some time in Xcode and learn how to make something myself.

Great set of locations each with their own visuals and sound, all the AI players have their own little quirks and I’ve still not figured any one of them out yet, sometimes the rolls are a little crazy, but you are against AI instead of real players.

Would love a Game Center multiplayer mode.

Looks fantastic on the iPhone XS MAx and it’s certainly going to to stay installed on my phone. Thanks a massive bunch for a great litle game.

What’s the point?
You only released 1 of the old classic games like really what’s the point of it you should release all of the old classic games again very disappointed that there wasn’t more of the games besides this game. Feels like lack of focus and lack of development to not put out all of them again.

Nonsense
While it may look good , the single player game only shows you the detail of hands whilst you participate .
For any other hands only the final result is shown. This is idiotic - no ability to observe the progress of bidding prevents any understanding of players’ MO.
It’s a pain in the backside
