Video Poker Trainer
Great for learning basic strategy while providing some entertainment value with incentives
Latest update a bust
Update: Developer is very responsive. He gave back all hints and also implemented pvp and a farming aspect to deal with negative EV. Game is totally worth the 10/mo now. Really enjoying playing.
UPDATE: went for 4.5 to 2 star. Game is great and beautiful and strategy and EV calculators are awesome BUT…Most recent update took away hints…the only thing worth buying. I had couple hundred bought and they took it away and gave me nothing for it. It was replaced with extra time which is useless. If I don’t know the correct play, having an extra minute or two to stare at the damn screen does nothing. There are teams and leaderboards but now without hints, no reason to buy things to try and stay high on them. Playing games with house edge means you’ll always eventually lose all your coins…no way to purchase them ensures that trying to level up your team(which requires coins) or hit top leaderboards will always be futile unless you’re lucky enough to hit some big hands early. Download it to learn basic strategy for a variety of games but don’t subscribe monthly or yearly like I did. Waste of time and money.

Response from developer
Thanks for taking the time to write this honestly — feedback like yours is how the app gets better. You're right: removing hints was a mistake on my part. They're back in the latest update, and I sent 50 hints, 50 gems, and 500 gold to your mailbox to help cover what you'd already bought. I also hear you on the coin grind. We just rolled out VP Floor — machines you can level up that produce a steady flow of gold per hour — plus player raids, both aimed at making progression feel possible. I hope you'll give it another look.
Love this app!
Great app for learning video poker strategies. Instead of a list of hands, you get to learn through practice on your phone, in my free time. Love the app and the folks who made it. Found this app through their video poker youtube channel!!
Cool
Cool way to learn the game.
Best trainer
This is without a doubt the best VP trainer I’ve ever used. It’s like using flash cards for me. I am hoping that more variants of the game come out for purchase, I know JoB strategy can essentially be applied to BP or BP deluxe without much EV loss but still those small nuances can make the difference. Great app!
