Worth a go

I can’t believe the **** that write reviews. I don’t think anyone should write reviews about a product they know doesn’t interest them or they know they don’t like. It will just end up being twisted to try and make people think your own way and will more than likely have no constructive criticism and will be completely useless to everyone.

One of the reviews below by thisisthisone makes out like he knows about poker but saying the game needs better graphics and sounds so you can hear or see if they are bluffing. What’s that all about, in my experience it is only complete amateurs that have tells like scratching their ear or tapping their fingers when they’re bluffing. Most of the game is knowing your hand rank, knowing how to calculate pot odds, your table position and how you and other people bet which you could work out if all the people were replaced by stick men that never moved.

I have played this game for a short while now and think that it is pretty good and worth a go. I think the AI is quite good and I also like the way you have to build up from nothing so it gives you just that bit more reason to keep playing for. The graphics probably could be made better but not for the reasons above (this is not an essential and I don’t think it would improve the game play). I still don’t think that it compensates for real cash** games between you and your mates or on a proper poker room on the net as you can notice how different you and your mates play when there is real cash** on it but if your low on cash, get easily addicted to things or not very good at poker but like it then stick to this. You cant go far wrong.

** Anything wrote about real cash games is of my own opinion and can not be used as a reason or an excuse for any one else to take part in any real cash games. If you have a problem with gambling then please seek professional help.
