Great game, very fun. Cannot seem to add friends who I know have the app, can only seem to add people your playing against as friends. It would be nice to add my buddies. Other than that thumbs up. Update, I later discovered you have to link it to your Facebook account to add personal friends in the game. Update; December 2020. Occasionally ad's pop up interrupting you in the middle of game play, often forcing you to fold. Very frustrating. Typically only once early on once you begin playing.

Unrealistic hands to make the game more interesting and intense. Edit: Reinstalled to see if it had gotten any better. Don't waste your time! Impossible odds that rarely occur in real poker every other hand. System is rigged to make you buy chips. If it sees that you have won a lot it makes the river land cards that are just not realistic the keep your win percentage down. Don't play this game unless you want to be disappointed!

This game got terrible when it added advertisements. HINT for those that hate the ads. Close the game immediately that the ad starts. Restart the game so you don't have to watch the ad. This game has gotten worse over time. I used to be able to play at lower table limits that they no longer offer. I'm beginning to hate this game enough I might delete it.

Nice to kill time. Too hard to navigate. Too many bells and whistles. After using for hours, an update. The length of the ads is beyond ridiculous and it freezes often during the ads. Requires force stopping the app and reopening. Because of this and being too difficult to access and figure out the bells and whistles I've cut back to 2 stars. Use the KISS principal. I just want to play poker. Why can't we just play in realistic amounts? Why millions??? Hundreds far more realistic.

The new update is OK, however, there are 2 things I absolutely HATE! When sitting at a table, if you are still playing the hand and go to enter a typed comment while others are playing and then it comes your turn about the time that you hit "enter" to send your comment, it raises the wager even if you didn't want to or wanted to fold. I've lost BILLIONS of chips to this. Also, I DON'T want to see the last 1,000 players I've played with when I'm looking for a person I was just playing with....I cannot find them easily and when I do, it shows they left quite some time ago. GO BACK to only showing the last 100 players.

It was good until the automatic ads before and after games. Also, for some very STRANGE reason, it doesn't show everyone's hand when it should. Also, the game screen goes blank periodically, forcing me to restart the app. The screen goes white/grayish, but sometimes I can still see chips move. Otherwise, the graphics are one of the nicest among poker apps.

It's just not fun anymore with all the bugs. Three times now I have built up huge bank rolls, only to lose them when the game bugs out. Somehow the system still knows my profile (avatar, rankings, etc.), but my chips are gone and I have to start again building up from zero. Add to that the glitchiness during play (delays that cause accidental folds, bets from other players being displayed before their turn, etc.), and it's just not fun anymore. Went back and forth with CS , but no resolution.

Great interface and works flawlessly. However, winning doesn't rely on luck or skill, cards aren't dealt randomly which absolutely ruins the game. You either keep winning or losing, with rare exceptions here and there. If you're in a losing streak, even if you get an exceptional hand someone else will have same or better. Becomes very obvious if you play for long enough. There's a setup and it should be removed. Needs to be a natural game. I'll edit or remove review if anything changes.

I thought this was a fair app at first. Once you've played it for a while you realize that the app chooses the winners to suit the house(Zynga). No matter how well you play you will eventually lose your entire bank. I bet a lot of people purchase chips at that point and then of course win until the app decides it's time for you to lose again. I've never seen so many bs unlikely wins or losses than I have on this app. The ads are rediculous and often long and you can't exit out of them.

You will always lose to the stupidest calls. If you have trip aces on the flop someone will call with a 7 and 2 off suit and beat you with a full house. Dumb luck dictates wins not skill 90% of the time. Hasn't gotten any better over time either. I downloaded it again and it's the same thing. Absolute garbage. Don't waste your time with this app. Edit: downloaded about a year later, still garbage and now they've added adds. Bad app.

Yea it's fun to play. There are some things that could be better, like in sit & go games the wheel 95% of the time lands on the minimum payout amount. No way that could happen that often unless fixed that way. One other thing, when you win your second ring you should give the option to get the other color. In the watch series promo's there is never enough time given to win it, they change to fast!! Thanks for listening. Banana

I've been playing this for a long time and love the game. That being said this last update was trash! I can't hardly play the game anymore constantly just stops loading and blinks and its gone. Have gotten kicked out several times from the app closing for no apparent reason and on top of that you guys felt the need to significantly cut back our prize from the spin wheel.

No problems when I downloaded it about 2 months ago. Now it crashes all the time. I uninstalled it and installed again and it still crashes. Very annoying. Giving up! It's too bad, because I like to play on the app. Update: 9-22-21 Tried again and still doing it! Unplayable right now. Refuses to connect to game and support is non-existent. Looks like the game developers took a vacation!

It's amazing how many players go all in on every deal.... that's no fun. Also, I've noticed my total chips changes even when I haven't played. Not sure where they go but they don't seem to find their way back to me. Last, I haven't been able to open any of the free chip gifts in emails for over a month... the emails open but it doesn't recognize me clicking on the link. Very frustrating!

Once in awhile you lose all your money because you are taken to an extremely high stakes table, unwittingly. It's because you didn't click exactly in this tiny little rectangle space that allows you to adjust the antes. So that's one issue. And the other issue is somehow the icon for Zynga disappeared from my home screen page and my apps. The app is still on my phone, but there's no icon for it. So even after uninstalling it twice and reinstalling it, I'm unable to see the icon for it.

The design and gameplay are neat and fluent. The algorithms used to deal cards, however, are as crooked as it gets. You can do everything by the book but you'll end up losing to one of the many bots in the game on either the turn or river, even if you have the best hand. If you need validation for this argument, just jump on Google and read the reviews people leave on different review websites. The odds of receiving these hands in real life that you receive in this game are miniscule.

The mechanics of the game are great. Easy controls, easy betting. The only problem is there is no double security feature on entering a tournament especially a shootout. If I accidentally hit it I'm committed to play and the chips are gone. Other then that I think it's a great poker site. I really enjoy the RPG style of obtaining levels through gaining experience. Even allowing you to show off trophies won.

Latest update is horrible!!! Game keeps crashing mid-hand. Loses connection and then kicks me out of table. I have to close the app and restart. Also runs ads EVERY time you go to the lobby and takes a long time to load these. Sometimes the ads freeze up the app. Often the ads are run in portrait so you can't access the close button so the only option is to close the app and restart. If one of your challenges is to "place first in a spin and win" it won't give tickets when you accomplish.

Card algorithms do not follow statistics. You can easily lose 30 hands in a row and only see a winning hand after you fold. It seems more geared toward pushing the purchase of chips rather than earning them. Because of this inflation no one cares and high bets/all-in is most of the hands. They just implemented a new ad system that makes you get an ad for the same thing 3 times in a row. That's on top of all the new flashy pop-ups they force players through. GG uninstall

Very enjoyable! I would like to see some improvements with things other than the playing of poker, things that allow you to better enjoy the the little things that have been put into the game a bit more. I would definitely like to see the option of getting to choose what table/stakes you would like to play Before you are just sat at a table and delt cards at a set amount you did not wish to play at!
