### 3/5 — Too much buying ads in your face

*2026-07-21, version 71.50.0*

Nice game, but at every turn it will ask you to buy useless chit.  I’d pay 5 bucks to turn these ads off.

### 2/5 — Pop ups

*2026-05-26, version 71.50.0*

Loaded with pop up ads

### 3/5 — Concept of Playing

*2025-05-19, version 64.16.1*

Even with the “Short Explanation”, I still feel like the interaction with other players has been less than when provided “The How Too’s”

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2025-03-03, version 64.16.1*

Not really playable. All the ai bots take forever to make their moves and are never wrong. Go play WSOP app. At they pretend to be fair

### 1/5 — Crash city

*2024-12-24, version 64.16.1*

This is a slow site often crashes, no fold button

### 1/5 — Rigged for players with money! EVEN SCAMMERS ARE IN IT!

*2024-10-07*

First, I thought that other players complaining about this game being rigged was false until I found myself in position where the app realized that I have money to spend all the crazy normal that happened back to back during insanity short period of time! Almost 10 hands I flopped top-set and full house and it made sure I lose to a runner runner! Mathematically cards that had 2% of hitting kept showing up! They’re greedy and set up their algorithms in a way that ensures people with money to end up losing so they’d keep purchasing more chips!! There are many better apps like PokerStars and others than this one!! also there are many scammers with photos of females that start conversation and ask for your phone number, etc. etc.

### 3/5 — Absolutely rigged

*2024-10-01, version 64.16.1*

This game was fun at first.. I mainly only play blackjack.. I truly enjoyed it and spent hours playing it.. then I bought chips with REAL money and that’s when I noticed a huge change.. the dealer wins about 90% of the time now.. I started with 120 mil chips and went down to 5mil within an hour or so of playing .. stopped playing until the next day now I have 900,000. The dealer almost always wins. It’s just truly upsetting especially since I put real money into it. Definitely thinking about uninstalling.

### 1/5 — Used to be similar to live poker. Now it is shamelessly manipulated like the other poker Apps.

*2024-09-12, version 62.15.0*

This app seems to now function like the larger poker apps that everyone knows are manipulated.

This app used to highly resemble live play.

They have over corrected. The simplest straightline odds of losing 7 consecutive hands in heads up is 1:128 
I’ve had that happen 5 or 6 times in the last week.
 
This isn’t getting out played, I’m taking about losing to “chip and a chair people” heads up, while holding pocket pairs, suited face cards, etc that you simply don’t fold heads up, especially with a 25x or higher lead.
I’ve been playing live in Nevada card rooms for nearly 30 years, and have never lost heads up with a 20x or higher chip lead. I’m not saying it’s impossible, luck is always a factor in poker. What I am describing is not luck, it is shameless manipulation. 

Why would anyone lose over and over and come to the conclusion, they want to make a purchase?

### 1/5 — Another Kama Game Scam

*2024-08-20, version 62.15.0*

This app is operated by Kama Games which has another app called Pokerist. Pokerist is the biggest scam in the Apple Store! They control players accounts to make sure they lose in order for them to have to buy. Pokerist has hundreds of thousands of complaints, yet Apple Corporate has done nothing about this app scamming customers and has allowed this to continue for 14yrs because they make money off them every time a player makes a purchase! The think because they are based in Ireland that they are untouchable to any legal action against them. When is apple corporate going to start protecting their customers from being scammed by Pokerist?? As a player of pokerist for 6 yrs playing over 1.4 million hands take it from me don’t ever make the same mistake I did Don’t waste your time downloading this app! It truly is the biggest scam in the Apple Store! They made over 130 million dollars of real money for fake money and they are controlling players accounts which is totally illegal in the gambling app industry!! Go on utube and watch the videos of how they have been busted cheating!

### 1/5 — SOS

*2024-08-12, version 62.15.0*

Just another greedy poker app.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2024-07-03, version 62.15.0*

That is trash only player win every hands need to do better

### 1/5 — Rigged.

*2024-04-10, version 58.26.1*

Poker Nights does not follow the rules of poker and has hidden rules designed to take earned items from you without notice. Don’t waste your time.

### 2/5 — Fun, but the play is odd…

*2024-03-21, version 58.26.1*

Fun game and time killer. Played poker in person and on other platforms though, and the insanity of some of the hands you see on a regular basis is odd. Lots of flushes, straights, etc. Also, it seems like the hands are good when you spend money, but when you stop spending everything dries up significantly.

Got no proof, but it all seems odd. Maybe the consistent high hands are to raise the excitement and then a little “pay to play” action going on in regards to spending. I mean I get it, got to make money and keep people engaged. 

Again, fun game though. The high hands bring excitement to it. However, when I play for money on other sites - the cards play different.

### 1/5 — Joke

*2024-03-20, version 58.26.1*

How many people go on and they have no skill and they just keep all kinds of coins they don’t care they make it not poker. No skill needed. If you like to play cards with no skills it’s probably a good website. It’s a joke.

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2024-03-19, version 58.26.1*

This game is beyond rigged. There’s a huge advantage to players who pay for chips. The rarest hands are a regular occurrence on every table. Don’t bother wasting your time. The app developers know exactly what they’re doing. Completely unfair game to those trying to play fairly.

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2024-03-19, version 58.26.1*

This game is beyond rigged. It gives players who pay for their chips an advantage over those trying to win fairly. I am so disappointed in this game after years of trying. I have never left a review in my life but I enjoyed playing this game and I will unlikely return and will never recommend this to anyone. Don't waste any money or time on this game. The app developers should re-evaluate their shameful strategy.

### 1/5 — sound doesnt work

*2024-02-27, version 58.26.1*

tech no help

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Total BS

*2026-08-10, version 71.50.0*

One of, if not the worse, “free” poker sites.  Donkey play where any Ace is worth an all-in.  But then it’s probably a good all-in bet considering an Ace seems to hit the flop over 50% of the time.

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2025-12-06, version 69.42.0*

App is absolutely rigged especially if you know how to play. They make you lose so you purchase chips

### 1/5 — Too many offers

*2025-11-27, version 69.42.0*

Way too many pop up offers when you get into the game. Have to wade thru them all to get to play. Deleted after 1 day.

### 1/5 — No support team

*2025-10-25, version 69.38.0*

They send you a lot of daily messages to watch an add to get free chips but when you try to collect your chips you get a message that says “No Offers Available. Try again later.”  What a waste of time.

### 1/5 — This game is rigged

*2025-09-08, version 68.43.0*

They have bits on different tables. Sometimes you see people have played less than 100 games and they have over 1trillion in chips. How?
And then they bots set you up and you lose chips. A lot of chip trading in the backend is happening. If you are winking they target you and you lose all the chips. This games is very manipulative and created by some psychos. 
This should be banned. Totally unfair platform

### 1/5 — Complete GARBAGE!

*2025-08-09, version 65.45.5*

Waste of time, completely rigged. Pointless customer support, nothing but excuses…. Too bad can’t give 0 stars,
Horrid!

### 1/5 — Money In Trash Out

*2025-07-20, version 65.45.5*

Other reviewers are accurate. New players and players paying for fake money win at first then immediately lose. Long shot hands win more often than not. Simple math and statistics show the DevOps team and management has no integrity, though this doesn’t matter bc of advertising, endorsements, and fake positive reviews.

### 1/5 — This is rigged and a scam

*2025-05-31, version 65.45.5*

This site is unbelievably unfair you lose to some hands no one would go all in with. 7 4 off suit for 12k

### 1/5 — Fair play NOT guaranteed

*2025-05-23, version 64.16.1*

Algorithm not random, so if you play correctly you lose. If it was random cards it would be fair, but they expect beginners to not know the difference and the odds of different hands happening. Let's say you have AK vs 88 heads up. That's roughly 50% chance to win. You cannot lose 30 hands in a row with those odds because the numbers have to average out at least 10-15 hands you would get lucky and win. This app constantly skews the odds so a hand like A4 beats AK like 50% of the time based on factors the program tracks. Everyone goes broke and gets frustrated eventually. Apparently the rigged game gets ppl to pay $ for chips, which is all they care about. App is
Rarely updated, glitchy, often servers overloaded and game crashes, but chat has been impossible for decades. It has never been fixed. they have to track your keystrokes so chat delay is always mistyped, misspelled. They just want u to burn through chips and no real prizes or incentives. Its sad. They can't even find advertisers because they are too lazy to make the platform better. Sell the app to someone that cares enough to care for customers. How selfish.

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2025-01-07, version 64.16.1*

At least so far it’s not a poker based lottery, I can raise pre-flop and people will fold.  Nothing like Zynga or WSOP.

### 5/5 — All the same look, bleh!!!

*2024-10-02, version 64.16.1*

Same program many poker sites same look, bleh boring now switch it up with the design

### 5/5 — Suspended Account

*2024-07-21, version 62.15.0*

Good day,

I had my account suspended because I shared chips with a friend. I had no idea this was against the pokerist rules. 

I have been a member of Poker Night in America App for more than 4 yrs. I play every day and have friends that I chat with every day.

Could you please look past my error and reinstate my account? The account information is as follows:
