5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely a challenge, 14 Mar 2006
Really love this. My first sitting was 7.5 hrs! I've played a bit of Poker for real and therefore thought the Easy level would be erm.... easy. How wrong I was. I'm obviously not a very good player but with the help of this game I should be able to develop a bit of structure to my game and improve. Lot's of different types of poker in the game but Texas Hold Em is my bag.
My biggest problem was playing too many weak hands but with the help of the in game tips as well as the rather useful estimated chance of win guide I've managed to stop throwing money away. The next challenge is to learn when to Fold on a strong hand instead of believing everyone else is always bluffing! The AI of the opposing players seems to be very good. I've been trounced pretty often when trying to bluff and had them running a mile when I've had a strong hand but until I've developed some decent structure, strategy and good decision making to my game then I wont be entirely sure.
There's also an excellent guide to Poker Maths. Probabilities and all that. Did that sort of thing at University so it's not too hard to follow but I reckon if you've half a brain and that way inclined you can sort it out.
All in all a very enjoyable game and I am sure I will win more at the for real games I play at. Just didn't realise how bad I was before!

2.0 out of 5 stars Old game, 5 Jul 2007
Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
Stats are reduced, you can't analyse your play like you would wish. Poker math and tips are basic stuff in line with whatever you can read in the first poker book you buy (apparently usefull for some players anyway).
Profils of opponents are varied enough and on average playing dessent poker. Though, some situation are outrageous (IA folding in the river after having bet the whole hand with a 10 to 1 pot odds!) and the endgame is very easy to win.
Deigns are old as well and after some weeks you should be able to win all you want at any level of difficulty (if not, well, stick playing poker against your computer is my best advise!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, 17 May 2006
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Although the graphics look a bit childish, the advice given by T J Cloutier is excellant. Without doubt I am now a much better poker player. If you play either live or on line buy this and you won't go wrong.
