Rigged!

Been playing live NLH for 15 years and the things that I’ve seen on this site are out of any imagination. On my last game i was doing a tourney and for an hour I have given bad hand and literally no points on the flop. And the blinds and antes were draining my bankroll. So i took a deck of cards and I recreated the same session while playing online, guess what happened lol. If you have to scam people at least make it less obvious.

Response from developer

We are sorry that you feel that way. Our software uses an independently verified random number generator. It produces a random shuffle before each hand. We use a static shuffle to copy real-life poker as much as possible. This means that the deck isn't reshuffled during the deal. The cards that come out are completely independent of the action at the table. The order of the cards is predetermined, which is why our software can't predict moves or favor any players. As a result, we can't generate so-called 'action flops' or biased rivers. You can read more about the measures we take to keep the game fair by visiting the Responsible Gaming > Security section of our website.

Worst customer service

I downloaded the app for the first time to play home games with my friends. You cannot join a club or even find a club on the iPhone app I’ve searched. I’ve waited on customer service for more than two hours, and I basically just left the card group because I cannot function on the app.

Suspicious

I’ve been playing on PokerStars enough times now, and while I enjoy the convenience and variety of games, the platform feels increasingly suspicious. The frequency of bad beats—where strong hands lose to highly unlikely outcomes—seems unnaturally high, especially in critical moments like all-ins.

It’s hard not to question the fairness of the algorithm when improbable scenarios play out so often. While I understand that variance is a part of poker, the pattern here feels more than coincidental.

If you’re considering playing, proceed with caution and set strict limits to avoid frustration. The lack of transparency in how hands are dealt raises questions about whether it’s truly random or designed to favor action-heavy outcomes.

I don’t trust it. And neither should you

How do you know if this is legit? The days of blindly trusting these apps are over. Especially when money is involved and they show nothing to prove it is.

Worst App I’ve ever downloaded

Just an absolute terrible process for withdrawals. Will take your money with no issue but when I want to withdrawal there are forms to fill out with documentation that you need to jump through hoops to find. I’ve been on hold for over 2 hours with there support team to get this resolved. Can’t wait to get my money and close my account off this app! If I could I’d give it 0 stars

Scam

Very easy to deposit money through e-transfer and other methods, but as soon as I want to withdraw they need account verification? The summary page of bank info containing all the information they want doesn’t exist for many banks. Incredibly fishy that no such verification is needed to deposit; they make it difficult to withdraw on purpose hoping you let it go.

Garbage designed to steal your money

1) will not verify payment method to withdraw winnings
2) dead ends when contacting support
3) live casino will randomly disappear and become inaccessible

Scam

This app is a scam

Response from developer

Hello there. Our software is analysed by Gaming Laboratories International, 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.

something is off

I decided to try this app with a $100 deposit. I did find it strange how frequently you see full houses and straight flushes and hands where it’s almost designed to instigate high. I have seen full houses falling to bigger full houses etc beyond the probability odds. I do feel their algorithm is tampered with in a subtle way to maximize their rake profits. Offcourse this is very hard to prove but I didn’t like what I saw and won’t be back.
