 Not worth 10 pence May 18, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Installed it, played 1 hand, uninstalled it. Threw it in the bin.
You can't see what you are actually doing, there is no proper view of the actual table, which is quite remarkable really. Just cartoon people sliding about.
I stlll can't quite believe it, whoever wrote this game must be having a laugh.
Avoid this like the plague!
 Great game for less than 10 May 22, 2006

Great game, if a little frustrating in places. Practice mode gives plenty of tips not only on how to play the game, but also on how to place your bets. Controls are easy enough to understand and master, and its enjoyable to play.
Poor value March 8, 2006
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am a beginner Poker Player and bought this to practice. I thought this was very poor value for money because (1) the graphics are static caricature cartoons of people who slide into view individually one after the other - so you don't visually see the hands of all the players at the same time. (2) there is little help in learning the rules or strategy (3) you have instant entry to one casino but have to earn a minimum there of 50K to enter one of the other casinos (the others have minimums of 200K to £1 million (4) there is an incredibly annoying OTT American 'commentary' of a few short phrtases ("YIKES!")which gets very repetitive very quickly (you can turn this off though) (5)if you fold, you have to wait for the other players to finish the round. My impression is that this is a very basic and early poker game. You will get irritated and bored with this game within minutes. I have since bought Texas Hold'em 3D Championship which isn't perfect but much more satisfying than this.
