Ich habe nun schon in einigen Matches mal das Replay angeschaut und verglichen, und musste feststellen, dass in mindestens einer Runde von 5, der Gegner teilweise einfach bessere Karten aufgedeckt bekommt. da bekommen die Gegner dann einfach mehr Punkte bei gleicher Auswahl der Karten die man hält, weil die aufgedeckten Karten dann besser sind als die eigenen. Entweder Bugs, eingesetzte Bots der Entwickler selbst oder die „echten“ Gegner schummeln hier. Wie auch immer….. ganz mit Rechten Dingen scheint es hier nicht zuzugehen. ### 3/5 — Good gameplay, poor matchmaking *2025-06-19, version 1.0.6* The game, in itself, is great. Fast gameplay and is fair with dealing the same cards. The biggest drawback is for cash players. Due to the matchmaking algorithm, you can go days without getting matches. The devs really need to relax the algorithm if they want to retain players. ### 4/5 — Great reviewer *2025-06-19, version 1.0.6* This app is cool but I have not won a game yet I put five dollars into the game hopefully if I pay more I will win ### 2/5 — Bye Bye Bank Notes *2025-06-06, version 1.0.6* I’d rather go to a casino ### 2/5 — About speed not poker *2025-05-27, version 1.0.6* Not great. It’s not really a game of playing poker but more about how fast you can hit the buttons. The games take a long time to get matched to an opponent. Days sometimes. When you do get matched it’s always with the same player. Cashing out takes several days as well. ### 5/5 — fun can win money *2025-04-22, version 1.0.6* fun game to play age win some money ### 4/5 — legit game *2025-04-21, version 1.0.6* real cash game apps ### 4/5 — So far I like it *2025-04-17, version 1.0.6* Not too easy but not extremely difficult either, just started out, easy to play and fun. ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-03-30, version 1.0.6* Pretty fair and fun ### 5/5 — Video poker *2025-03-25, version 1.0.6* Im still feeling it out but, i think this is the best video poker game ive played thus far. Odds seem about right and well ive played poker for a long while in my life so i know what im doing. ### 5/5 — Game *2025-03-03, version 1.0.6* Good and fun ### 5/5 — Poker *2025-03-01, version 1.0.6* Interesting game very fast ### 5/5 — Big Al3 *2025-02-26, version 1.0.6* Great games!!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Questionable Morals *2026-03-21, version 1.0.7* The issue is not really the game developer, it is the Skillz platform behind Blackout Poker. The matchmaking feels questionable at times, and when you also have money tied up in the system, it creates a frustrating experience. A platform built around real-money competition should feel transparent and trustworthy, and Skillz has not given me that confidence here. ### 1/5 — Skillz = Scam *2025-11-07, version 1.0.7* Skillz games are all a complete scam everyone knows this. Look up all the lawsuits they have. Don’t waste your time or money ### 1/5 — Actual scam *2025-11-05, version 1.0.7* You’ll play against the same exact person 5 times in a row. ### 1/5 — Location issues *2025-10-26, version 1.0.7* Can’t play any cash games as I’m based in Australia ### 1/5 — This game is a scam *2025-09-10, version 1.0.6* They advertise bonus cash for new users, however the bonus cash is fake and they will scam you. If you spend any money on this app, it is gone. I now have to start 6 different 100 dollar chargebacks on my credit cards. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-08-06, version 1.0.6* It made me make a account then logged me out and now the money I put into the first account isn’t available and it keeps making me make a new account so I’ve just lost money not even getting to enjoy a game. It won’t let me contact support to get the money back either because it says I need to save my information but every time I think I’m saving it, it starts all over ### 1/5 — Bots are us *2024-12-25, version 1.0.6* This game is a scam. The moment that you start winning against actual players, the game chooses bots to compete with you and then you start losing. The bots are easy to spot; they do not have an avatar. Stay away, far away ### 1/5 — Trash and scam *2024-11-29, version 1.0.5* Any games runs by skiltz is a trash ### 1/5 — You have to pay it not free *2024-11-23, version 1.0.5* Anthor scam.game ### 1/5 — Gheeeeeeeyyyyy *2024-06-02, version 1.0.2* Trash ante. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good poker game *2025-12-14, version 1.0.7* I love this game ### 5/5 — 🫶🏾 *2025-09-19, version 1.0.6* Most enjoyable ### 5/5 — Me *2025-09-01, version 1.0.6* Great ### 5/5 — Mike V *2025-08-22, version 1.0.6* Fun to play for real cash against real people ### 5/5 — Esto es una aplicación buena *2025-06-09, version 1.0.6* Juego ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2025-06-06, version 1.0.6* Great competition! ### 5/5 — Good game *2025-06-01, version 1.0.6* I really enjoyed this game. I wish there were more people playing so I could have more competition. ### 5/5 — Poker 4 cash *2025-05-08, version 1.0.6* Legit no bots ### 5/5 — Man *2025-05-08, version 1.0.6* Or Woman You Admit It must be able to get a better understanding of the most important thing is that I have to go to the hospital and the other is a great way to get the best out of the office ### 5/5 — Fast fun *2025-05-06, version 1.0.6* Quick hands of video poker. Fast and fun. Good way to kill time and if your fast make a little cash. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
