It helped me "get a handle" on the game. Thought it was very well laid out and well-written. Summary: Casino Ready? 2009-01-18

This game is entertaining for a while. It is a good way to practice the basic skills of the game, and get used to the basic rules. The game displays the various odds of winning with your two cards at every step of the game, pre-flop, flop, turn and river, and this is useful. I say it is not realistic because the AI that you play against is predictable and I quickly learned how to beat it every time...It is definitely unrealistic because in just my first few games I beat like 2000 simulated players to win the simulated world series, twice. Bringing my winnings up to a few million in just my first few simulated "tournaments". Now as much as I would like to believe that I am a poker prodigy, I think it is more likely that the games AI is seriously flawed if a beginner like me can win the simulated tournaments so easily... overall I would recommend it to beginners, just to learn the basics and get familiar with the odds of various starting hands etc...It is fun for the first week that you play it. to get real poker skill I believe you need to play real people, for real money. As one of the other reviewers said it is true that playing online against people for play money is completely useless and unrealistic. Summary: entertaining, but not realistic 2007-08-22

This came of no-limit Texas hold-em poker sucks big time. First some positive things about it: It can be fun for awhile. It has lots of options. 2003 and 2004 World series tournaments are here(pitting you against 800+ and 2500+ opponets respectively). It installs easily. Now the bad things: Gameplay sucks. The only way to really improve your play is to play for REAL, for REAL MONEY. Playing other fools online in virtual rooms with "play money" is a joke, because no one using his/her own cash, with the chance of losing it, would , say, re-raise all in with 9/3 off-suit hole cards. Might as well go home now. but in these no real cash games, people do it all the time. Oh, I busted out? OK, just re-enter another table and keep playing. Now, why does the gameplay suck? Because the program cheats. Ever watch Hold-em tournies on tv?How often do players hit the "miracle card on 4th street or the river" and pull out the win? Not often, say about 20%. In this game, you hit the miracle about 15%; computer opponets hit it about 75%. Also, you tend to lose to opponets with the same primary, but a kicker usually 1 card higher- your hand is J/Q, you lose to a J/K. also, have AA starting hands? You'll lose to a flush/straight/3 of a kind about 95% of the time. What's the worst starting hand in Texas hold-em- it's 7/2 off-suit; you get this, you toss it. I have then seen the flop come either 77x,22x,72x,or 722 or 772, which, if I stayed in, would have won me the hand. It rewards you for playing laughingstock hands. NONSENSE! Play like that in a real money tournament, you'll bust out before you've even gotten to warm up your seat. My advice, avoid this like the plague. don't get fooled by its cheap price tag. Here, you buy cheap, you DO get cheap. Summary: ATTENTION!!! STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME!!! 2006-06-16

Loads of fun - challenging - as close to a live tournament as possible for this price! Summary: "Like a live game" 2006-02-24

This program sure beats playing in the play money rooms online. I always finish in the top 3 at party poker online. Imagine my shock when I lost on the beginning level. Ive been playin for about a year and have read tons of books. I read a previous reviewers thread where he states he beat this program the first time he played and it was on the highest level. Liar Liar pants on Fire!!! The opponents in this program become better and better as you get to the last table. The last 5 or 6 opponents are extemely good. Better than anything your gonna get online. I highly recommend this program. Summary: Terrific Way to Improve your Game 2005-09-10
