If you like bad beats this is your game!

There is no way the AI in this game is not rigged against the player. Statistically I’ve gotten more bad beats than is probable. Not just bad beats HORRIBLE BEATS - Computer Will have something like 7-2 off and will go all in against my pocket aces . Surprise surprise the computer pulls off the win on the river. The computer will flop 7-7-2 or something completely outrageous and beat you. you could have the best of it throughout until the river card hits and gives them either a straight, a flush or full house.

I agree with others who have posted that this is just a scam game to get you to buy chips. It’s just not possible to lose this much on a game. I mistakenly paid for it and I’m paying the price. I hope you read this and don’t make the same mistake.

Don’t trust the AI

As others have pointed out the other robot players play suspiciously. I also think the game rigs the deals. When I first started with the evaluation version I was seeing 4-of-a-kinds a lot. Then the game bleeds you dry trying to get you to buy chips. I’d like a legit game to learn to play with in a fun setting but this isn’t it.

EDIT: reinstalled recently to give it another go, omg the game is so obviously rigged in the last round. I guess rather than make the AI smarter they elected to fix hands more. Opponents had FOUR 4-of-a kinds during a 2-day stretch when I had great hands. And, two were in the same game!

Jokes on them I’m not paying for chips.

Bugs

I enjoy playing the game a lot but I’m getting really frustrated with the game freezing. It forces me to leave the table sometimes because it won’t continue and it’s been getting stuck on the loading screen. Without these issues, I would absolutely love it.

Nowhere near as good as his Poker World

Looking for offline poker games and found Poker World and it was perfect! Player faces and personalities, good poker, options (head to head, tournaments to progress, ranked players to move up the ranks, etc. I played it for a long,long time and recently won the world championship. Looking for something new and decided to try this since same developer. But this is a disaster. Everything is WAY too small in the tournaments, hats instead of faces remove all personality, lots of “stuff”’that really doesn’t add to the poker, etc. The tiny cards and table make it more a drudge to play. Would love and would pay for a Poker World 2.

Crashed but good

I’ve been playing this game a lot lately. It is a fun poker game. There is just enough non-poker stuff to keep it fun. The reason for three stars is it crashed today while playing it and after closing it, it won’t reopen. I deleted the app and fired it up again, nothing. Even a great game is worthless if it is unplayable. I’ll try again for a few days. If it doesn’t come back, I’ll delete the app.

Very disappointed

I notice several times that I had a winning hand and the pot was given to a losing hand. I thought okay I’ll keep playing since it’s free but then I conquered Amarillo and the coal mine and now if I want to play any further I have to pay. I don’t mind paying once for the app but they want me to pay for every city that I go to sorry but I am out I’m deleting this app I only gave it a one star because it was fun while it was free.

Fun game with issues

This game is fun but it has issues. Tournaments cost too much to get into and if you win one the payoffs are low. Buildings are too expensive and the rents are low after you buy them. Cash games are played like tournaments because you can’t buy in again. I guess this is the way the developers get you spend real $$.

Check on it

First off I like the game but there has been a few hands that the better had hand has lost an 8 out of 10 pocket pairs the others fold on like they know or can see just awful funny that it happens so often mean it’s just a game not real money but seem a little off and like I said there’s been a few hands that the better hand has lost somehow or another

Cheats?

Thought I must have seen the hands incorrectly at first, but sure enough I’ve caught three or five hands that should have won but didn’t, or that won but didn’t pay out - I should have placed first in a tournament when the other player went all in (at around $1k) and I won the hand. Instead, I was given less than $200 for the winning hand and the other player was given back the rest of their money and allowed to keep playing!! Zero sense. I paid for the app and don’t mind supporting and paying for games I enjoy, but not when they’re designed to cheat and scam. Also, I’ve NEVER had the same level of HORRIBLE luck/hands in real life that I’m constantly being dealt in this game. This would be a phenomenal and insanely popular game if they would play by the rules and/or work out these “bugs.”

A joke

I find this game no different than any other.
The basic function of the game is to sell.
Sell maps and sell chips.
When a game allows fare play to come before selling then it would be worth sharing with friends . Phone cost enough on my monthly budget , will not spend any extra on games . So I must look for games that are fare and entertaining , and don’t require additional monies to play. This one won’t work . I’ll get tiered of it soon and delete it , being I can only play in limited area.

To fast after the win

I wish there was more time to see what the winning hand is before the next deal. And, says how they won - flush, two of a kind, etc.

Good for Novice

Fun distraction while getting over my covid booster. Fun for a beginner. Love that you can slow down the plays in settings, easily pull up the rankings chart, & hit the info button to see how a hand was won. Ads covering up buttons is annoying. No idea how realistic AI is bc I’m a novice. Wish there was a TX holdem version.

Scams

Starts of seeming pretty fair with real world odd for any given card. Then once you’ve played and progressed long enough the odds per card drastically change. I’ve lost all of my last 43 games and tournament’s. Struggling even to win one hand. The government seriously needs to regulate these apps as they are essentially scams. I despise these software engineers and companies. They should be classified as thieves and criminals.

I want it to be good

Decent play, fun premise. However it’s glitchy. I won a tournament then had it lock up and not given me credit. Worse yet, I can’t play the tournament again now (game must think I won) so I can’t proceed further in the game (which I paid for…). This is just the worst example but there were many other small examples.

App hasn’t had a version update in three years so assume these type of glitches are permanent and go find a better poker game.

Gov of Poker 1

I enjoy playing this version but i really wish it would have an option to stop the play after the last card so one could actually see what the other players cards were. That might help to figure out if they were bluffing or had the best hand.

If there are more than 3 players it is almost impossible to scan the others cards before they are collected and a new hand is dealt.

With that extra feature it would be a great poker training game for someone that wanted to practice before heading to Las Vegas.

Well done lots of fun

It takes a lot to get me excited but I can’t wait to get off work and play this one. I’ve only been playing it for a few days and have not gotten it down pat yet, but that’s okay. This game is easy to figure out even if your not a avid gamer or card player. It’s simple, it’s fun and it helps you build your card playing skills. Most places you would have to pay for that. So I say GOOD JOB, keep it up. Sincerely, Charles Blalock

Sneaky trick to get more of your real $

UPDATED : developers responded promptly to my concerns and made things right. For that, I’ve change my rating to 5 stars.

There are lots of IAPs in this game. But the only place that you will learn that you have to buy a specific IAP to play past the first city is at the BOTTOM of the App Store description. Nothing inside the game warns you. In fact, the IAP you need to buy says “to unlock ALL the cities”. I didn’t need to unlock all the cities. I won a tournament, was given a horse, told I could go to the next city, which is basically saying “you’ve unlocked the next city”. Turns out I COULDN’T unless I purchased the specific IAP. (Why am I particularly upset? Because I actually purchased the first time-limited special IAP that was offered to me, which was just more chips. It wasn’t to unlock the game, which I would have done!)

Buggy money sucking app

The bugs and game freezes drove me away.
This is the first review I have ever written, that’s how upset I am with this app...
Several times would be in the final three people at a table and the entire game would freeze. I would have to back out of app and come back in and start the poker game over completely, with no credit for chips.
K with their support would say sorry...
It was fun until the problems started showing up, then it became frustrating and annoying. Waste of time and money...

Ai poker with profits in mind

I’ve played this game on the pc, much better and no real money needed. The problem with this type of game is that it is in their best interest that you lose, so that you may pay real money for chips. First town is ok, to get you hooked. Then you pay for the game which is reasonable. After that the gameplay is fraudulent and fixed. You will lose winning hands. You will lose to astronomical odds, and often. In order to really keep playing you will need t spend real money to buy chips. Once you realize that they want you to lose and they are totally in control of that, you know that it is rigged. Stick with real player poker games and pass on this one.

Great Offline 1 Player Texas Hold’em

If you’re looking for a poker game without playing with other online players, this is a good choice.
This game allows you to play and resume at your will. Don’t quite care for the in game story line but it’s not annoying. Buy all the house at each stage to collect rent and this will minimize your losses on the day you ain’t so lucky.
