If you’re looking for a poker trainer - this is a good one. There’s nothing like just diving in and playing hands. It’s a bit pricy, but worth it.
If you’re the app’s creator and you’re looking for some feedback — this app is so clunky and bloated. Every hand I have to touch the screen pre-hand, pre-flop, flop, turn, river, post-river. And not just once, but twice every street. And I have to sit through watching cards being dealt and players “thinking” before making their action. Can we just get to it? And get to it in a way that I can go quickly? Reading the excerpts is valuable — the first time. But can you please give the option of getting rid of them? I like to play this over and over and over again. And it’s quite annoying to do so when I have to touch the screen so much and wait for bots to make their action.
Also, the concept of adding different packs is great, but they can be done better. I didn’t always know which pro was training me. And info from one pro definitely conflicted with info from another. There’s no one way to play poker, and I really like that a few of you teamed up to do this. But please make it clear who is teaching what. I’ve got JL talking about 3x the BB early, 2.2x mid, then 2x late. Then all of the sudden MB comes in randomly raising 7.5x the BB. Say what? Different styles is great exposure. Point it out. Capitalize on it.
Please add new hand packs. This stuff with antes — when the BB ante has been standard for a while now — shows me how outdated the material is. And please use real hands from real tournaments. You’re in a unique situation to do this. The blending of tournaments wasn’t actually all that helpful. The one that focused on a final table of a single tournament was great — for example. More of that! Sometimes I didn’t know if you were joking about hands. AE showcased a hand where he had me bluffing three streets on a K-high, untextured board and QQ laid down river, after calling flop and turn. The river bet wasn’t an all-in or anything either. It was a standard bet on deep stacks. That really seemed like a don’t try this at home moment because I can say with certainty no one is ever folding to me in that spot! I’d love to know if it actually happens at your bigger games!
Thanks for reading this long note. I really just want you to build a great product. There’s so much potential here. I’d pay for extra hand packs. You can get a ton of in-app purchases out of me if you’d just update this thing and make some minor improvements!
