It’s hard enough to have a proper game of poker here with the bingo players on most every level to 10,000 chip buy-in, but add in recent changes to how the cards are shuffled - there are visible and oft repeated card patterns - make the experience feel like the game is anything but luck and skill. Feeling this manipulated in a game is not how I want to spend any more time. ### 2/5 — . *2026-02-24, version 3.88.41* . ### 1/5 — Bs *2026-02-21, version 3.88.41* All you do is loose to bad beats ### 3/5 — . . . *2026-02-21, version 3.88.41* GL ### 1/5 — Rigged RNG *2026-02-20, version 3.88.41* The RNG on this site is 199% rigged. It caters to high stacks in cash games and bounty tourneys … reason being it creates rebuys / rake which make money for site . It gets worse the longer the tourny runs .. also is bad before rebuy ends . Watch how many times in an all in situation that the high stack in the hand hits a 4-12% out on the river … it’s not a bad beat or coincidence ..the RNG cheats and manipulates the cards Just witnessed blatant cheating / or site bot ### 1/5 — Wanted my entire SSN *2026-02-19, version 3.88.40* I’ve played on every other real money PA casino available. Never had an issue with the verification process. This app asked me to send my entire ssn. But why? You only need the last 4 and I’m pretty sure I entered it correctly multiple times. I’m good on all that. No real time chat available and the craziest part is the 3rd party verification confirm - identity verified. Then I got a pop up requesting to scan my ID and something with my full SSN. Nope. ### 1/5 — Blatant scamming. *2026-02-17, version 3.88.40* RTP based site. Not real RNG. Our government is the absolute worst for allowing these terrorist into the country. SHAME ON YOU POKERSTARS ### 1/5 — Login in issues on signing up *2026-02-15, version 3.88.40* Besides having to chat with customer service I am prompted with a pin everytime I sign in via email… normal sites keep you signed in for 10-14 days without putting a pin in. ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2026-02-15, version 3.88.40* Every deposit results in a security check. So frustrating ### 1/5 — Wish *2026-02-12, version 3.88.40* No wins ever ### 1/5 — Horrible programming *2026-02-12, version 3.88.40* I’ve played poker on every online site for years now. PokerStars is by far the worst of them. Yesterday I played a tournament and went all in three hands in a row after the turn and got called. I had an 89% or higher chance to win the hand each time. All three times the other person hit their card on the river. Three hands in a row! Incredible BS. Today I was playing a game and four people all moved all in after the flop. Three diamonds on the flop and I got KQ of diamonds so I call. We all had two diamonds in our hands and a fourth diamond came on the river. 12/13 possible diamonds were all in play in the same hand with only 6 players at the table! I could go on for hours about other terrible encroaching on impossible beats that I’ve gotten from this terrible site but you should get the idea from those. The programming is so bad I’m convinced that there’s no way they aren’t rigging it for certain players. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2026-02-10, version 3.88.40* I’ve played thousands of spins on every app available in Mi. Without a doubt, they are all rigged. But this app is by far the most obvious. Thousands and thousands of slot spins, never ONCE a big win. Every other site you snag a win here and there. Not here. And when I did finally get a little win, go figure, there was a problem wit my withdrawal. Not to mention there’s NEVER anyone playing poker here. Avoid this app at all costs. You’d be better off setting your money on fire. Update. I tried 2000 more spins. Nothing. I put $25 into every single online casino. This is the only one that gave me nothing. And like I said, when I tried to withdraw $50 there was a problem. Couldn’t do it. This site is a rip off. Don’t trust them. Go somewhere else. ### 1/5 — Rigged inflated RNG *2026-02-06, version 3.88.40* This site is by far the biggest rigged online PA poker site there is. I’ve played over 1,000,000 hands and the RNG gets worse by the day. It’s all formatted to make the site money ( rake and rebuys) there is nothing independent or random about this shuffle which the developer will say and that it was tested and rated “ fair and random” lol… Watch how many times the underdog high stack hits a 2-3 outter on the river. I just lost to “ high stacks during all ins my last 5 bounty tourneys with a 88% -92% win % going into river and lost each time . Cash games and tourneys) it’s fixed and rigged .. do not rebuy … and if you cash out they screw you repeatedly after for awhile.. ( variance) ### 1/5 — Immediately suspended my account *2026-02-02, version 3.88.40* Visiting a friend in Michigan, so I decided to download the app made an account, verified my information and it even let me make a deposit. then immediately suspended my account and saying I was self excluded, even though I never did that. This made me unable to play or even withdraw the money the account took in with no problem. Clearly just a way to have people deposit money with no intention of letting them use it or get it back. ### 1/5 — Nope *2026-02-01, version 3.88.40* 100s of dollars a day and haven't won nothing. Nothing at all. Sad but true ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t play here *2026-03-13, version 3.88.41* This is a scam site ### 1/5 — BLATANT SCAM *2026-03-10, version 3.88.41* DO NOT PLAY HERE THESE PEOPLE ARE CRIMINALS AND IT IS VERY OBVIOUS ### 1/5 — Keep track of the math! About as random as the sunrise *2026-03-06, version 3.88.41* First thing i have to say is that the developer responses are as big of a joke as pokerstars itself. If developers need to tell their customers how fair and random their game is, it’s probably because their game is not fair and random. Your customers are telling you what the biggest issue is with your site based on their experience, it’s that the poker on your site plays nothing like actual poker. It seems manipulated to keep money flowing more evenly between good and bad players. The last review i read the player said that in over 4000 tournaments Aa’s had a win rate of under 50%. That seems to be right in line with the experience i have had on this site. I have been keeping track with a pen and paper of how ofter 2,3,4,5,6,7, & 8 outers hit on the turn and river. How often when two players share a card the worst of it wins. How often a pair loses to any two cards that are not a pair. And most importantly how often the bad play gets rewarded. I have been tracking these stats for a while now and i will say that the math is not even close to actual poker math. If you just track how often in heads up play a three outer hits on the river(1 in 15 is close to the actual math), you’ll likely find that is two to three times that rate. Do your own research and see what you find. I would suggest playing spins games because you will see the most hands in a short span and most heads up play, so tracking these stats is easy to do. You can also play for a dollar, so you won’t lose anything substantial while you decide if the poker on this site play like actual poker. Keep track of how often Aa’s lose in heads up play. At a minimum AA’s are an 80% favorite preflop. See if they win at an 80% rate. Track it until you get to 1000 and see what the win rate is, because that is a pretty descent sample size. I have formed my own opinion based of my own research and it is that if this game was actually random that math would be much different. ### 1/5 — RIGGED RNG *2026-03-05, version 3.88.41* The site and its RNG are frauds . The PGCb should be ashamed that they didn’t stop this blatant cheating … ### 1/5 — Fraud *2026-03-01, version 3.88.41* Bought into a tournament got to the final table pay out and they kicked me out of the game. I was robbed of my chance of winning and my account banned. Account reinstated a month later saying they were at fault but refused to give me winnings. Cannot trust this site for professional poker playing. ### 1/5 — Rewards *2026-02-28, version 3.88.41* Don’t give back enough rewards or play money for as much as I lose ### 1/5 — Completely rigged *2026-02-26, version 3.88.41* It doesn’t matter if you limp in, raise or 3 bet they will always have it and 1up you hand including kicker. Mostly bots or algorithms emptying peoples account all back to mount airy casino. Hands are dealt back to back the same and so are the flops. Multiple flops in a row hitting a pair and a random 3rd card. Don’t waste your hard earned money on this scam. ### 1/5 — Actual thieves ! *2026-02-23, version 3.88.41* They will hold your money and not give it to you stay away from This app they should be in jail! ### 1/5 — Realistic *2026-02-21, version 3.88.41* The bad beats are so horrible and it seems like the site rewards stupid play. Rewardadonkey.com ### 1/5 — Screw job *2026-02-21, version 3.88.41* Veterans players get fed ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Screw this site *2026-03-14, version 3.88.41* This site sucks don’t play it.
