### 4/5 — Amazing

*2026-06-25, version 3.5.14*

Fun and awesome

### 2/5 — Bots take your money on river every time you get ahead.

*2026-05-29, version 3.5.10*

Certified?  Bots will beat you on the river every time. Supposed to be fair!?! lol. Fun to play until you get a big hand and some bot calls you with garbage and rivers a full house 🤣

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2026-05-03, version 3.5.10*

When you play at a lower amount bracket, vs your coin amount they rail you and you lose every hand lol but when you go to a table with your average coin total amount the app all the sudden makes u win a bunch none of its poker it’s just smoke n mirrors

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-05-02, version 3.5.10*

Don’t bother wasting your time with this garbage. I’ve gone close to 100 deals without a playable hand. I went close to 50 deals without seeing an ace. And it’s typical that you’ll get sucked out on the river when you’re a 80%+ favorite to win.

### 3/5 — Not convinced yet….

*2026-05-01, version 3.5.10*

I have doubts about the fairness and advertising of it.

### 1/5 — Rigged Rigged Rigged

*2026-04-24, version 3.5.10*

You win great! You feel great! All this happens when you first start playing. After a couple of weeks of really making money…. then you go downhill. The last 2 days I played very  conservative. Lost everything. Getting constant low hands. Rigged Rigged Rigged. Oh but if you spend a little money. Your hands start looking better.

### 1/5 — To many bots

*2026-04-20, version 3.5.10*

This game is a rip off. It does not play fair it set you up to lose 99% of the time. U can only win  if you don’t raise. If you do raise you will lose every time.

### 1/5 — Garyswond

*2026-04-15, version 3.5.10*

Usual online BS. Just the usual where the worst hand somehow wins on the river. Don’t know if it uses bots or what but like almost all online sites it’s a joke.
Probably best to stay off this one.
Don’t waste your money plenty of bots
Why Apple lets these sites be bought is amazing to me

### 2/5 — Rigged

*2026-03-22, version 3.5.10*

I don’t care what anyone says. I play poker for over 25 years! This game is rigged.!!! No way someone can hit a card and beat you at the end as many times as it does on this game!!

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-03-21, version 3.5.10*

If you like being frustrated? This game is definitely for you. This game is rigged to f..k.

### 1/5 — Buggy, slow, and Can’t Be Truly Random

*2026-03-18, version 3.5.10*

I can’t count the number of times I want a game and it didn’t give me my winnings. Their race conditions where you get hung waiting for something to happen but nothing ever does. And it’s so slow to play. There are far too many bad beats in this game for it to be truly random. I suspect they’ve programmed it to deal specific cards to make it “more exciting“, but it just makes it totally exasperating.

### 1/5 — Cheat players

*2026-03-17, version 3.5.10*

Clearly this game is rigged and other players see your hole cards. When playing higher stakes whenever you have face cards no action then when you have trash they raise. Also the Blackjack is the same. STAY AWAY DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

### 1/5 — Ignore “Fair Dealing”

*2026-03-16, version 3.5.10*

Whoever awarded the “Fair Dealing Certificate” is a joke. 

The unexpected river is so commonplace on this app that it should be expected. 

The excitement here comes from you being 98.5% on to win a hand with only the river to draw and you actually win it.

I’m not joking. I’ve played this app for years. It’s quite fun but absolutely rigged. It’s run by cheats who don’t deserve your money.

### 3/5 — Fair

*2026-03-12, version 3.5.10*

I get tired of games that last and are ad full. This game is middle of the road

### 3/5 — Best poker app out there

*2026-03-11, version 3.5.10*

Only issue is there is morons who you don’t know poker, so they play like maniacs because there is no real life consequence to betting like that. But I played this a lot on steam and you can find good tables with people just trying to practice. Gotta just hop around till you find it. Literally every other app I’ve tried is clearly rigged. This app is as well. I’ve done a lot of testing and discovered there is an algorithm to screw the accounts that take too much of the free money. It’s a free app there is no way they don’t have it set up to force players to buy in game currency. The game seems to punish those who take too much freebies, like IRL casinos funny enough. And if you do not accept a dime and actually grind for your money it seems to treat you more fairly

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — This app is Rigged!

*2026-08-18, version 3.5.14*

It is not random at all! Certain, high ranking players are always winning even with low probability hands… kind of like they know. It’s not worth the time! 
They claim to be random certified which the last time they were “certified” was in 2018!
They also double charge on purchases!  They are scamming people!

### 1/5 — A setup for failure

*2026-08-04, version 3.5.14*

Rigged deals that in REAL poker would be an easy all in bet, but also deals one better hand to opponent just to force larger bets… happens with nearly every hand, so bluffing is of no help. Frankly, games really suck as sooner or later it drains you in hopes you’ll pay them for more chips. Also, they claim random deals, but any 5th grader could figure out that it’s statistically impossible

### 1/5 — Worst game ever

*2026-08-04, version 3.5.14*

Terrible game. Says hands are dealt fairly. Not true. They assume every player will catch a winning card every hand. The absolute worst poker app available. Was good for a time but now it’s bogus

### 1/5 — Surprised

*2026-07-31, version 3.5.14*

Surprised that apple even it allows it as an app to get

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2026-07-28, version 3.5.14*

It is plainly obvious that this is rigged. 

I’ve played live poker and never seen this amount of one-outers hit or runner-runner bad beats or 4 suited cards on the board to make a flush or the number straights that occur…I could go on and on…

To prove my point that this is rigged…if you ever get to a final table in a tournament and two people are all in…before the cards are even dealt…check the place standing in the upper left of the screen and you could see the loser’s pic before the play is even over. 

It’s not even satisfying when you win that way, cause you know it’s rigged.

### 1/5 — Even Pokerstar is better than this site

*2026-06-19, version 3.5.14*

Bof !

### 1/5 — Sleepers suck

*2026-06-07, version 3.5.14*

Timeout the sleepers after two missed rounds.

### 1/5 — Bots bots bots.

*2026-06-07, version 3.5.14*

Don’t believe for a second this game isn’t rigged to get you to spend money. Watch some “guest” river out on you every time. I definitely made em mad. My algorithm won’t let me win a hand. Crazy how they preach a fair deal lol

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-05-11, version 3.5.10*

Scam. Do not believe those that say this is fair. All lies. I really wish this company take down their fair authentic fake seals. Bunch of thugs run this scam to get your money.

### 1/5 — Authenticity

*2026-05-10, version 3.5.10*

Your site is the absolutely the most orchestrated game available. You are worse than World Series Poker and that is saying something. To claim fair dealing on this site is fraudulent on your part. You should be ashamed of yourself but you don’t care. It is just the money.👁️the evil eye.

### 5/5 — LeBron

*2026-08-09, version 3.5.14*

All the people who say the game is rigged are just bad at poker personally I think it is not rigged at all

### 5/5 — So much fun

*2026-07-24, version 3.5.14*

This is my go to app on a daily basis, tons of opportunities for free chips, challenges for free gems and decorations to help increase your odds of winning hands. My wife and I and obsessed. I hope you guys come out with like 3 card poker, Omaha, and others! Your apps are top tier!

### 5/5 — great in 2026

### 5/5 — Lost account

### 5/5 — Mr

*2026-01-03, version 3.5.10*

Fun cards

### 5/5 — The best design ever

*2025-11-03, version 3.5.4*

Have experienced other sites. They do not have the superb graphics and features this site has. It is SO GOOD. LADBROKES for example is truly rubbish in comparison.

### 5/5 — Relaxed betting

*2025-11-01, version 3.5.4*

Even though this game has been around for a while. Nothing compares to the relaxing game atmosphere. A must for a gambler who doesn’t want to lose real money.
