Awesome poker game and very fun gameplay with intuitive control. Download this today. This poker has become one of the best poker around with the recently added Sit'N'Go Tournament ! Whats more ? Free and awesome online poker gaming with tons of feature in game with cinematic smooth graphic. My most played game of all time and thanks dev for keep updating this game.
The friends invite and chat is so awesome that just simply the best social chat with gaming i ever used. Hundreds of poker app in AppStore , tried most of them but not a single can match this app in term of connectivity , function , social , UI and user base. I personally think its illegal to get this app for FREE , because its just too good to be true. I think i am going to be fired soon since most of the time playing this game in my office. Addictive !

Great Poker Game

This is undoubtedly one of the better poker game on the app store. A word of warning before you press the buy button: this is an ONLINE poker game, which means you will need an itnernet connection to be able to play it. You can use Facebook to identify yourself online or GameCentre if you are picky about releaasing too much personal information. There is also a build in registration in the app itself to help you set up a personal account I can go on raving about how many hours i have poured into it, but I think a better approach would be for me to break my review down into pros and cons.

Pros
1. Realistic presentation and great ambient background music and effects to set the mood
2. Free chips provided on a daily basis.
3. Stable connection
4. Intuitive chat system
5. Good support from the development team
6. User account customization
7. Social netoworking integration (facebook!)
8. Newbie friendly. Even a newbie can jump on baord and get into gear because of the in depth tutorial provided to familiarize beginners in the game mechanics and interface.
9.High resolution graphics that keep everythign sharp and clear
10. OMG! password restore function! Thanks for adding it.

Suggestions and aspects that need improvements!

1. Tables are full sometimes, perhaps more tables are needed!!!
2. It is cool that we can delete friends now but what we really need is an easy way of searching and adding for friends ! I think this is rather important as the current system just doesn't allow this easily!!!!
3. Option to set up a game where there is no limit on the number of chips you can move between hands. This will really bring balance to the playing field.
4. I have experienced time out problems..it would be cool if the server temporarily saves your hand and position on the table for a while if you get booted..this will definitely prevent a lot of heartache!
5. Displayed chip values are rounded down.
6. No game centre achievements!

To sum it up, this is a really solid online poker game;its many game mechanic and interface advantages more than offset a few negative points. If you even have a slight interest in online poker games, you really own it to yourself to pick this game up.

Addictively awesome Texas Hold Em App (5/5)

Texas Hold'em Poker Pro is the best app to quench your thirst for a quick or serious game of texas hold'em. I can play quickly with anyone from all over the world and I choose the stakes. I met some cool players too in the game, as I can chat and joke around for relaxing games. Its a big stress relief for me. Personally, I just play with ingame credits, and I'm still addicted to it. Kudos to the devs!

Thanks for the update. This is definitely the best Texas poker game in iPad and iPhone. It is a great social poker game that you can play with friends all over the world. I have a lot of fun!
For me, honestly, the most important thing of a poker game is that the cards are big enough. And this one fully use the big screen of iPad, my parents can also have fun.#
Though Texas poker is very popular, I think tutorial is still needed. And is it possible to add voice chat? Of courses, a button for us to decide turn the voice chat on or off is necessary. It would be a lot of fun!

The best Texas Poker game out there!
The game provides 2 games (Texas Hold'em Poker and Omaha High)in 1 app, I stillprefer to play Texas Hold'em Poker most of the time. Ive downloaded many poker apps, this one is certainly among the best! The interface is decent and looks comfortable to me. Since it is universal, you can get the better experience and better HD graphics on an iPad. All the designs are user friendly. It can't be more easier to select a table and start to play. You can play with your friends or anyone from all over the world. It is so convenient that I can communicate with my friends in public or in private while playing at the table. I enjoy the game play, it is fast-paced and really addictive.
Although this is a lite version, some key features should go to the Pro version, but it would be better to include the music player and especially the tutorial for beginners. Also more language support would be appreciated.
Overall, although it is a free version but it contains the best part of the game. Definitely worth a try.

This is something you rarely see in an App Store these days, a well designed Texas Hold'em game.
This is a polished game and very enjoyable, well rounded and a great time passer.
It's free and you cannot miss out on it, give it a try and you won't be dissapointed at all

New Update, New Features, New Experiences!

New Update, New Features, New Experiences!

I haven't experienced any problems that players have belowe. The game runs perfectly on my iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1. The game is very smooth and well performanced. And if you still have such problems, you should update to the latest version. It should have fixed them all!

The game is based on network. You must connect to WiFi or 3G to play it. There are 4 ways to play the game: Game Center, Facebook, Built-in Registration and Guest. I have tried all of these 4 ways. In other word, there are 4 game slots. You don't worry about your game progress will be disturbed by your friends or kids. You can play as different users here. Or even register different IDs using the build-in registration. My favorite way to play is still using Game Center.

In the FREE version, players can get 5,000 chips for FREE, whichi is very surprising. With these chips you can play 2 kinds of games: Hold'em and Omaha High.

The game is designed as a game lobby. You enter the lobby and choose a room to play. You can enter any room ramdomly which is arranged by the game or choose a specific room as you wish. You can also create a new room and invite your friends to join. The system includes features like chatting, inviting, sending gifts. You can get a detailed tutorial if you are still a green hand.

The game supports Retina high resolutions. You can see the amazing graphics on iPhone 4/4s. The sound effects and music are also very soft, pleasant and impressive. Since the game supports Game Center, you can compete with your friends on Leader board. As I mentioned before, there are many achievements in the game, altogether 145. However, these achievements cannot be shown in Game Center. I hope they can be recorded on Game Center as well in later updates.

I like the icon very much! It's designed like a chip, which is very useful in the game. So I think this icon does perfectly stands for the soul and quality of the game. You can share the game and your Game ID via Facebook, Twitter and SMS.

I'm glad to see new graphics on iPad!

In a word, the game is best Texas Hold'em Poker game I have ever played. The well-designed game UI and contents will bring high quality game experiences for you. You won't regret playing it!

P.S.
Some suggestions:
1. The loading screen of choosing table or going back to the lobby is a little laggy. Sometimes I can hear the sound but the screen is still frozen. It takes some more seconds to activate the screen.
2. Maybe you can add an Asynchronous game feature in the game. Thus, players can continue their games when they cannot play the game for a while.
3. Can you also add some other ways to earn FREE chips. Such as cooperating with Tapjoy.
4. Bug: I play the game using Game Center, I can edit my birthday in Profile screen. But it can only be editted to the date I edit. I cannot edit to my correct birthday.
5. Bug: I play the game using Game Center, but I cannot edit E-Mail address in Profile screen.
6. Please add Game Center achievements which are the same as those in the game.

This app is a great way to play Texas Hold'em with others from the comfort of your mobile device. There are always tables open to play, with a variety of different skill levels.

I liked the fact that you could change the skill levels of your opponents by changing the buy-in price for sitting at certain tables. There are multiple achievements to unlock, and plenty of neat little accessories such as drinks and food that you can buy with your chips. There is a time limit for each turn, to ensure that the game moves at a continuous pace. The free version starts you off with 200 chips, which is more than enough to participate in multiple rounds. I enjoyed the fact that you could play as a guest, although registering saves your chips, achievements, and unlocks features such as adding friends

There were a few aspects that I would like to see changed in this app. First of all, in the middle of games, this app crashed on me a couple of times. I would also like to see the betting bar changed, since I often find it hard to place the exact bet that I want. When logging in as a guest, I found that I had a total of 384 notifications, even though I had only begun playing! I found such notifications to be slightly annoying.

Overall, this is a pretty decent app, and definitely one of the best free Texas Hold'em apps. I would absolutely recommend this to anybody trying to look for a simple game of poker.

First of all, it's a free texas poker with hundreds players online at the same time, what else can you ask for!!
While play with random online players, you can also invites your friends to play with you, really fun!

However, I have no problem player as a guest. But when I tried play using my game certer ID for the first time, it freezed at the logging in stage for quite a while(3-4 mins), don't know why.

The key point of online poker game is, I think, more and more online players!! Hope this game can have millions of them!!
Great work!!
