Save yourself a load of money
Imagine that now, in the 21st century, you can actually sit down in front of your PC and learn in the space of a week what a lifelong poker player could not throughout their entire career. I will put this much to you - playing poker against someone who has spent time on this simulation would be a tough game. There is absolutely no doubt that this package will teach you all about winning and all about loosing and all you got to do is spend a couple of bucks on this title.
In short, it is a poker simulation with roughly fifteen game types to choose from with anywhere between two and two thousand players. It will teach you the drill from start to finish. You should play this game for a few years before even considering venturing down to the casino or showing up with Friday night poker with the boys. It will certainly sting less in the long run.
If it is poker training you want, then this simulation does it like a royal flush.
As a note: The graphics are not much better than Microsoft's Windows Solitaire, but looks are not really why you want this thing. Get it for the maths, chance and gaming experience. The kids never need go hungry again.
Free Music Review: Best Buy For The Money
Hit: 5 Stars
I used to play a very good DOS version of Hold 'em years ago. Since then I've searched for a good Windows game. After buying and chucking about 10 other poker "games" (Bicycle, Hoyle, etc.), I finally found a decent computer Hold 'em program.
I bought this software about a month ago, and I've played it for 40-50 hours so far. I have to say it is the best buy for the money. I really like the fact that the game is fast and challenging. You can improve your poker skills in various game formats--Cardroom, Heads Up play, one table or multi-table Satellite tournaments and the 2003 (839 players) and 2004 (2576 players) WSOP Championships.
The games have quite a few options, including the skill of the "computer players" and reviewing the other players' cards after you fold.
The Turbo Texas program is supposed to have more options and better AI than this, but I am not ready to shell out $90 until I can consistantly beat all the games on this one.
Free Music Review: Great A.I. helped me get ready for Vegas!
Hit: 5 Stars
I was one of the lucky ones to get to play an early beta of this game (and the final release). I didn't know anything about Texas Hold'em Poker other than I watched a few tourneys on TV and wanted to learn to play. I travel to Las Vegas on business quite often but was always too timid to try to get in on a table as I didn't really know the game well enough to be that confident. After playing this game on my computer for a few hours, I really have learned the ropes of the game and have gotten quite good at it! The A.I. is outstanding and it really seems to know what is in my head. The great thing about it is it STILL beats me from time to time...
Another cool feature is the tournament system that allows you to hold tournaments to your exact specifications.
Thanks for the great product!
Free Music Review: The new solitaire - a woman's perspective
Hit: 5 Stars
I originally bought this program for my husband since he watches it on TV all the time, but now he has to fight me to play it. I can spend hours playing the game and often find myself yelling at the other "players" for their cunning moves. I think the AI is pretty good and it has taught me a lot about tournament poker. No limit sure is different than the normal poker games we play at poker night. In fact, we used the clock feature to host a tournament and it was a lot of fun. Everybody had a great time. Back to practice... I love the cheat options like looking at the opponents hands. Overall, this is a great game and worth the price, especially given the hours of play you can get out of it. I call it the new solitaire because it is alot more fun, especially going all in!Free Music Review: Serious poker for an affordable price!
Hit: 5 Stars
I recently lost interest in the "cuteness" of the Hoyle Casino series of titles, and the other poker sim's on the market which seemed to have been programmed by someone with no knowledge of the game. All the poker books I've been reading suggested trying a certain series of titles which are considered to be the standard in poker simulation, but at $80+ I determined those to be out of my price range. This title offers the best of both worlds, serious poker for an affordable price, while retaining all the features of it's competitor. With the release of DD Tournament Poker Donohoe Digital has set the new standard for poker simulation.
