Highs and lows

The gameplay is nice. The graphics are good. The dealing of cards is especially suspect after you reach certain levels. If you don’t purchase chips, you’re not going to be able to play very long (weeks, at best) and it becomes very apparent that as you rise in rank, you lose more often. It has a lot a errors that sometimes kills your game, and at times your cards don’t “show” pre-flop. It’s just a very flustering experience the longer you stay with the App….If it weren’t for the ease of play and the graphics, this game would get zero stars.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. Please rest assured that we are a Fair Play certified game, a widely recognized independent gaming product testing laboratory, who have concluded that our shuffle and distribution is random. You can learn more about this on their website.

Game has gone to pot

This used to be a really fun game to play. Now 80% of the hands are really not playable. It also looks as though they pre-determine who will win. Way to many beats on the river and so many straights and flushes against me. I have spent over 5 million at 100,000 clips over the past week and a half and only have won little pots 4 times. Most of the pots are small now and hard to move up the ranks unless you play all day.

Total Garbage

This game is clearly rigged. I’ve sent multiple complaints to support because you can’t see your cards, you can’t fold, or you have to raise. They tried to say I was having “connection” issues. I told them my connection is just fine and when I asked if I would get my chips back, they went completely silent. I have the pictures to prove it, and I sent them, but unfortunately I can’t post them in this review. Bottom line, don’t waste your time.

Challenges and Fun

If you like Texas Holden but don’t enjoy waiting for all the other players to decide what they’re going to do, this is the game for you!! The tournaments are three players including yourself, and move quickly!Try it out and see for your self. Guaranteed to keep you happy!

One of my favorites

Pokers hard guys, if you are actually buying chips regularly then you need more practice. This is a straight up decent app and especially appreciate Omaha (the best I’ve had for that). FYI Been a member a number of years and only purchased chips once, just very careful. Hope that helps!

I wouldn’t recommend

I used to love this app. I don’t normally spend money on in app purchases but I did on this one several times because I loved playing it. Over the last few months, the app either won’t load or it will freeze in the middle of a tournament (which means I lose my buy-in). Losing a $10 million buy-in more than once is beyond frustrating. It’s not my internet or WiFi connection because none of my other apps do this. Really disappointed.

Ace

I love this game! I’m cheap and get to play for free. I’ve never paid for chips and when busted just wait for a free spin. I’ve read some reviews saying it’s unfair but it reminds me of our games with friends, real poker, Sometimes your lucky, sometimes not. And there are skilled players! Every time I work up to a $1,000,000 table I lose!!

Wait for other players

Great game. Fun to play. Sometimes I just don’t get good cards. This happens in live poker so it’s no big deal. My only problem is when I get into big money games like $250,000,000 games. I’ve waited for half an hour for other players. Is there anyway I can leave before the other 2 players show? I know if I leave I loss my buy-in. There should be a time limit to leave without losing my buy-in. Anyway you can help with this. It’s kinda frustrating wait past 15 minutes. Please help.

I’ve had the app for at least two years!

It’s free, it’s awesome, great graphics, great UI, great socialization, It doesn’t cost a ton of money to play, You get to meet new people, I’ve never suspected any cheating. I can’t find any reason to give Any complaints At All!
For those complaining about paying money: I’ve had the game for over two years and I’ve Never Spent A Single Dime!

Recent changes

App used to be great. Latest change has days of only offering slots and other games with no access to actually play poker. Also when you play tournaments it’s rare to have higher pots. If it’s random why is the ability to win larger pots not available? I’ve been playing for 2 years and never ran across a large pot especially the jackpot. With the changes and jackpot amounts, it does not feel like play/winning is random or fair. Game used to be much better, but with the recent changes, I would not recommend.

Frustrating changes

Updating my review: This game is entertaining. However, recently they've started removing Texas Holdem during the day on Saturday and not returning it until Monday morning. This has been going on for three weeks. Extremely frustrating!

This makes no logical sense to me. Whatever problem you're trying to solve by doing this, can't be worth excluding your user base for nearly two days per week. Please tell me this is a bug.

A great app ruined

I have been playing this app for more than a year and UNTIL last Sunday, April 22, 2020, I would have rated it excellent. However suddenly last Sunday the HOLDEM options were unavailable. All I could access were the slot games. The HOLDEM options reappeared a day or so latter and were available until today, April 29. Whatever changes the developers have made changed the app from excellent to TRASH. They need to fix the problem and move the slot games to another app.

Garbage

I have never played a worse game. If you don’t play everyday you have no chance of winning. The deal is not anywhere as fair as advertised, I have lost a lot to the next hand and way to often. I played a player who won with a pair of bullets 7 hands in a row. Don’t waste your time, funny how after I left this review the game got worse for me, didn’t think that was possible but I lost 3 times as fast as normal. Never got a card higher than a 6 the entire game.

This game freezes up constantly

I have been playing this game for 2 years. I play the poker and first of all I agree with a lot of the our reviews the payouts are CHEAP! My game has been freezing up either from the beginning of the game, the middle of the game, or just when the game is about finished when I have 7 million chips and the other person has 500 thousand chips, you know you would of one, but there’s nothing you can do. One time I was in a 2.5 buy in game down to 2 people and I get this square box on my screen from poker stars saying we are shutting the game down to work on the game. That’s it, in 20 seconds it shuts down. I have wrote to these people at least 10 times at least to get my chips back that I lost, but they never respond back. They only like it when you buy their chips and the money is rolling in, however giving you back chips because they were having issues, they could care less about you. They won’t respond to this review either. I promise though if they ever refund me back my chips I will reverse my review and let everyone know what they did for me. Thanks to anyone who reads my review. Also I wish there was a phone number that I could reach out to talk to them, but I can’t find one, I’m sure they wouldn’t be able to keep up with all the negative calls anyway.

Jackpot poker

I play ten hours a day usually, I have account's in most of the best site's. Jackpot is my favorite. The players are the best in the world, I am able to find any size table I want any time I want. I play at the sister site's, they're real good also, but I keep finding myself at jackpot. My advice? Download and install and have a great time.

Problems

Overall I like the app when it works, but lately I lose buy ins when the screen freezes and locks me out of the game. Very frustrating. Often I don’t even get an error message. No problems with any of my other apps, so it’s not my tablet causing the problems. I’m going to try some other poker apps. This one is starting to disappoint too often.

Very fun game

I read a lot of moments that people wrote, listen people , it’s a game ! A free game! They don’t force you to buy chips , sure everyone wants to win so you can climb the latter on poker stars . The game is real, you win, you lose, it’s called poker. Just relax , have fun with the game and stop acting like it’s a life or death situation. Go on tv if you want to win that bad.
Poker stars is a great game to play . Don’t let a few people make you not download this game because of there views or experiences with game

I fine chips go missing

One day I had like 17, and something and the next time I like 9,000 that’s messed up...... It also blows my mind with some of the cards I get they really stink and the other player from other country win a lot nothing against or country’s it makes me wonder about the creator where there from

Fun but no honesty!

Love playing people around the world. Like the way you can see your ranking, country, state or worldwide. Many times I get the same crummy cards I folded! The jackpot wheel would really generate excitement if all the winnings were actually available . But 85% of the time you get the same pot of just over what the buy in is. You see big numbers on the spin but they never happen! Bought chips, 8,000,000 disappeared . It took me 10 emails and threats from my bank to get them back and then they acted like they were doing me a favor! Love the fast pace, clean up the obviously skewed odds and get some real people that can help you at the end of a phone and you will make everyone happy!

Something is not right

I have been playing this game for approx. 10 months. This is the most watched over game by it’s inventors that I have ever seen. Besides being highly addictive(I have spent hundreds of dollars on this game) you get “cheated” with hands that rarely should come up(4 of kind, straight flush) to beat your Full House and the game sends you a message saying “Bad Beat”. BS !!! Don’t believe Superstars comments that say they follow all rules for random fair play. That is an outright lie. They also have a wireless symbol that comes up and totally halts the game when you have a great hand. When you enter individual Tournaments, the wheel that spins to decide how much you will play for rarely goes over double your investment when the wheel has at least 10 other denominations of much higher value. The average good rating(4.6) that this game shows is totally bogus. I guarantee you. Which means the owner is tampering with the reviews. To top it off, I was entered in a tournament and the game froze as I consulted with the other players to verify. I lost the 2.5m chips I entered with and Superstars would not send those back after 3 emails with them. TERRIBLE GAME GO TO ANOTHER !!!
