Too many bots, RIGGED

After seeing other reviews, I thought they were sore losers. However, I just sat for 2 hours and a bot won EVERY single hand in Omaha. I was curious and experimenting, but witnessing it became frustrating. Bots come in and force you ‘All In’ and win. Seriously, more flush wins than I can count, four of a kind, and the least was a three of a kind. You get a flush; they have a flush with higher card. It’s ridiculous.

Texas hold ‘em has a lot of these issues too. While it’s late at night and there may not be online players, filling the table with AI brainiac players is ridiculous. They say that there is a random generator, but I’m a developer by trade, there is no possible way it’s randomly generated. Black jack, for example, has MULTIPLE face cards in the same round during tables. It’s figuratively impossible to have 5+ straight hands with face cards.

This needs serious work.

Algorithm off

I’ve been playing this game for some months now. I enjoy the game for the most part but the algorithm in the card games, (mostly noticed in BlackJack) are way off. Obviously it’s not real money but it would be nice to play with a real shuffled 52 card deck.

Gameplay

The bad beats are ridiculous at this point. I can’t even play for an hour without at least ten bad beats. Not even worth trying anymore.

Worst game ever

I have tried a lot of poker games, this is the worst one, save yourself some time and don’t play this.

They have bugs that make the payouts cheat you

Many times on ultimate hold ‘em offline I’m playing out here where I don’t get WiFi on my property and I have higher pair than the dealer yet they take my chips away from me! 2 stars this is all whacked off. A couple times they did it with WiFi too.

Bots and oxygen thieves

As per the title. full of bots that the creators have put into the game to make numbers and don’t care enough to give them different usernames which are so obscure it’s impossible!
I get that it’s not real money and supposed to be fun but most players make it unbearable

Terrible game

Your Pokerist game is one of the worst poker apps. It’s no win situation. I can go for months without winning which is unrealistic. For whet I pay
apple for apple one you would think that you would allow the program to have players win without waiting months of losing. It gives me a hand which I should stay in with only to get beat on the last card which happens over and over until all the chips i have build up from playing for a few weeks are are gone. And it won’t allow me to win for months after that. I dont understand the point of aggravating players with a program that doesn’t allow winning more than losing

Response from developer

Hello! We are very sorry that you have experienced negative emotions in our games. We use a random number generator to deal cards, mix decks, drop roulette balls, and form combinations in slots. Our RNG algorithms have been certified by an independent test lab, and all game algorithms comply fully with generally accepted standards.

Unlikely hands.

The game is fun, and I’ve been enjoying it but it perpetually gives other players the same unlikely or slightly better rare hand that you have, making you buy in more than you should. For example, if you have a straight, it’ll also give 3 of the other players at the table the same straight.

Bad luck? It happens. We aren't lucky all the time either. The truth is, when the Random Number Generator works properly (and ours does - we had it tested by an independent company), it can be the worst kind of troll. Just try to be a little more patient. Sooner or later, you'll hit your jackpot.

Star Tournament - Video Poker- bugged

I don’t care about the chips I did not receive but I wish the support would stop gaslighting as my balance did NOT change after winning the Star Tournament in Joker Poker... The first time I won I questioned, the second time I won I paid more attention, stopped immediately, and reported it. Stay clear of the star tournament until they fix. (Support team has not resolved the issue)

Glad it’s ad free, but to say this is fair play is…

a huge stretch, you only need visit the blackjack tables to experience this. If the dealer starts out with a face card, the next card will give the dealer 20 or blackjack roughly 7-8 times out of 10, it’s very noticeable. In addition, the star tournaments are killing gameplay. Players join a table then run down the clock to the last second, then every card turn do the same. A round of for example Ultimate Holdem that should take a minute or less, can last 2-3 minutes due to players hoping the star reward hits. People,myself included will leave money on the table and just leave due to all the stalling. This could be a great game, but fair it is not, at least not right now. I’m a developer by trade & coming up with a completely fair play algorithm just isn’t that difficult, good luck.

We've done everything possible to create an algorithm that ensures fair conditions for everyone. We've employed testing specialists to make sure it really works. We wouldn't have released our game onto the market without the proper certification.

亲爱的请增加老虎机和体育竞猜。

老虎机和体育竞猜是很棒的游戏模式,在另一个app很火,可惜这里玩不到,如果体积过大是否可以考虑删除一些没人玩的比如电子扑克等

Total Scam

Total scam. Totally rigged.

Just like a real casino

The house always wins!! This is a fun poker and blackjack app, but it is very heavily rigged in favor of the house. In Blackjack the dealer has a face card 19 times out of 20. And blah blah blah from the developer about their “certified algorithm and RNG”… the game is still rigged.

The game outright cheats.

I will screen-record this the next time I play, to verify this. But several times, playing Ultimate Poker (I stay away from the online-only games, after reading several reviews), my winning hand has “lost”) to the game’s inferior hand. This most often happens when getting pairs (I just had a pair of 5s, dealer had 2s, yet they “won”), but it has happened when I’ve had two pairs to dealer’s one. Knowing this, there’s no way I’d play online, for actual money.

Лучший онлайн покер, в который я играл

Response from developer

Спасибо за ваш отзыв! Удачи за столом!

Decent game…however

Connection issues galore. Constantly reconnecting to their server/network. Otherwise decent game. Offline the game works good. Too bad one needs to be online for the desirable games.

UPDATE: Congrats guys you have fixed something that wasn’t broken. With your “UPDATE” my avatar got trashed. Thankfully that appears to be the only issue discovered. Gameplay may be quicker…ooh ahh hold me back. +1 Star for effort.

Rigged against real players. Don’t waste your time or money.

Full of bots. Black jack is unplayable due to the house always winning by one. Texas holdem regular tables and tournaments are full of bots and “all in” boosters. Customer support does nothing but gas light you and will only respond with “our algorithm is fair. See this link that certifies it as fair.” Garbage game. Over a year played and every win I get is met with 10+ losses. Outcomes are not inky improbable, but statistically impossible. Apple should take this game off of the App Store. It’s an outright scam.

アルゴリズム変わった?

他のアプリと比べてちゃんとランダムで楽しく遊べていたがここ数日急にひどいハンドが100ハンドくらい続いて辞めようかと思った
なんかシステム変わりました?
あと、相手は全員人間?CPUも居るの?

Fun ish. But

I like the games overall. Just gets a bit much when you lose 40-50 games in a row. In black jack just now, I lost 10 hands in a row. Had 20 a few times but the dealer miraculously gets 5-6 card 21's over and over. Doesn't matter the game you play when you win big you will lose it all soon after. Had 800 million then went on a losing streak for days. No matter what game or how much I bet. Just seems silly, like all the other comments about winning and losing.
