### 2/5 — Joker Wild doesn’t work.

*2025-12-12, version 2.35*

I created a pay table for Joker wild. The Info says that Flushes are possible when holding cards of different suites

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2022-03-31, version 2.32*

See below:

### 5/5 — Excellent tool to improve your play

*2019-08-11*

A very good app to learn the video poker games you like to play.
     App can fine tune your play to as close to perfect play as possible which is what you want if you play at casinos for real money.  And gives what your errors would have cost you over the long haul if playing at a casino.
     App does allow you to set pay tables to any amount you like or play the preset pay tables which are I believe full pay tables for the different video poker games out there.
     You get a lot for just $10.   Simple graphics, but with app correcting your mistakes on holds makes it worth it. Especially being able to select specific cards in a hand to see what correct hold would have been if dealt that specific hand.
     They do need to allow app to adjust sound as I use it on mute due to volume being only on high.
     Other than them updating the sound volume they might consider updating the app for different sounds on such as hitting quads.  In Double Double Bonus & Triple Double Bonus quad 2s, 3s, 4s, & Aces(and with kickers) in a real casino sound different compared to others.

### 5/5 — What happened to WinPoker HD?

*2019-08-04, version 2.32*

It disappeared from the App Store a few years ago. 

Please bring it back!

### 4/5 — Perfect, except . . . . . .

*2019-07-04, version 2.32*

Please update the app for use with the iPad.  Thanks.

### 5/5 — Really changed my video poker game

*2019-06-10, version 2.32*

Great strategy trainer. I thought I knew the best way to play most hands but this app has improved my play for sure.

### 5/5 — Great Video Poker trainer.  Well worth the price.

*2019-06-02, version 2.32*

The best Video Poker trainer.  Thanks for the recent update.  Great program!!!

### 5/5 — WinPoker!

*2019-05-30, version 2.32*

Outstanding video poker training app! Allows users to add specific game pay tables. With no frills, it’s worth the $10 price tag.

### 5/5 — Great video poker training app

*2019-05-29, version 2.32*

Want to learn to maximize your odds at video poker? This is the best app out there. Very responsive developer as well!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2019-05-29*

I’ve had this app for many years. Great training tool and a great way to warm up before hitting the casino floor. Pays for itself in less than a minute at the casino.

### 4/5 — IOS 12.2 problem with WinPoker 2.1

*2019-03-31*

After updating to IOS 12.2 I am unable to SET CASH on the WinPoker game on both my iPhone and iPad. I have been using the app for several years and really enjoy it.

### 4/5 — Very educational!

*2019-03-14*

I just purchased this app yesterday, so have not used it a lot yet.  I thought I was a pretty good VP player, but just from playing a short time, I can tell that I will learn a lot from this app!  I like that it has all my favorite poker games, and that you can play them multi-hand too.  My only ‘complaint’ would be that it is an iPhone app, and I mostly play on my iPad.  There is a button in the top left hand corner apparently to enlarge it on an iPad, but the button doesn’t work!  So its kind of a bummer that I have to play it when its phone sized on my iPad.  Would be nice to get that button fixed, or offer it as an iPad app.

### 4/5 — Old app, but good trainer

*2018-12-15*

So this is an older app, not being updated for four years, but it is a great training tool for multiple poker variations. Very helpful! Cons: The graphics and interface are clunky, and the app volume cannot be controlled by the phone.

### 5/5 — Best App by far!

*2018-02-23*

Love this app....so worth the money. I really like the fact that so many different video poker games are available to play . Best teaching tool to learn video poker.

### 1/5 — Switch to Video Poker Magician

*2026-01-06, version 2.35*

Video Poker Magician is 100% accurate and it’s now the single best video poker app in the store.

### 1/5 — Change pay table

*2025-07-06, version 2.35*

Can’t change the pay table on any of the built in games.  No instructions that make any sense. Can someone please explain what to do.

### 1/5 — Used to be good till the update.

*2024-08-20, version 2.35*

Was a great game till they hired a 9 year old to update it. Now it’s GARBAGE. BTW they don’t respond to emails and questions. Save your money.

### 1/5 — Switch to Video Poker Magician

*2024-01-06, version 2.35*

Way better than the inaccurate win poker…

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2023-12-02, version 2.35*

Now it thinks everything is a flush when I play jokers wild.  Super annoying - wish I never updated!

### 1/5 — Can’t change games after update

*2023-11-03, version 2.34*

The Latest update forgot to add a button to confirm to change a game, ie, from Jacks or better to joker poker. I will change my rating once that’s fixed. Otherwise it has been a great app.

### 1/5 — A mess since iOS 10.0.2 update

*2016-10-21, version 2.1*

Ever since the update I can only set the cash for $100 so I am playing $500 a hand and I can only add to the cash in $10,000 increments, so unrealistic. I emailed Zamzow for help when it first happened and they have not responded. This was a 5 star game but it is now a 1 star.

### 1/5 — I used to love it

*2014-07-17, version 2.0*

This was my favorite casino game until one day I opened it and my $300k was gone. That took me a long time to build up and I don't want to start all over, so goodbye old friend.

### 1/5 — V2.0 build 8901 - Can't Analyze Hands

*2014-06-03, version 2.0*

After updating to this version the analyze hand feature is useless.

### 1/5 — RNG And strategy are off

*2013-08-01, version 1.8*

For DDB bonus the strategy is off. It's cost me money. Also the RNG is skewed and does not provide truly random results.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-04-04*

I recently found this poker training app and I must say this app is helping me to become a better video poker player.   Can this app be enhanced , yes.  I am willing to pay little extra for enhanced version.

### 5/5 — Best App to learn the game

*2024-03-24*

This app is absolutely great. It allows you to create other versions of popular games in all casinos that offer these games. Has changed my gaming in casinos all over the country. Every advantage player should be using this app to become proficient in video poker. When your edge against the casino is reduced to a few percentage points, the wins will pile up for the player. It’s has changed my gambling habits and has generated more wins than I could have imagined.  The only issue is that it doesn’t have some of the newer games like Ultimate X but I assume those variations are trademarked to some extent. Single hand games have a higher payout for players in the end without the exposure to large up front costs with multiple hands with multipliers that cost extra.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2022-04-01*

Just bought this for my iPhone.  It’s a wonderful app.  Very well designed and fun to use.  My only question is if it uses the same random number generator as the casino machines.  I play the 9/6 Jacks or Better game and seem to do extremely well.  I’m not sure if this is just good luck or if the program is written to be more generous than the casino games.  I have emailed the Zamzow to ask about this.  Hope to hear back from them.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2022-03-02*

This is the best app if your primary goal is to improve your play. The graphic is basic but that’s not as important as the training and analysis function this app
Offers.

### 5/5 — The first and still the best

*2021-09-13, version 2.32*

Win Poker is simply the best.  I do miss the Ipad version, though, and hope it is reintroduced.

### 5/5 — Winner Winner!

*2021-06-20, version 2.32*

Amazing.. this app has taught me well and gives me an edge in video poker in Atlantic City.  Worth the $9.99!

### 5/5 — Love It

*2020-11-02, version 2.32*

I love WinPoker!

Is there any chance of getting the iPad version working again?

I’d easily pay $20 for a landscape iPad version.  I can even get you the sounds.

### 5/5 — Excellent Tool

*2020-05-25, version 2.32*

I have used this app for many years. It is great for practicing and learning correct game strategies, and it is also invaluable in a real casino where you can enter any hand and see the correct cards to hold. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2020-03-28*

I’ve had this app for years and have definitely been able to improve my gameplay at the casino. Highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-08-11*

I have been using this app for years and years. Being able to play any game I find in a casino or enter custom pay tables is very useful. The analyze a hand feature helps when you forget an obscure strategy
