Texas Hold 'Em Poker SuperStars Invitational Tournament Reviews
The REAL reason I rank this game so low is that it is devoid any of workable AI. This game claims to have all the big stars from the Poker TV shows, but it was missing many of my favorites. Besides, rather than being talking, interactive stars, they are just pictures that show up around the table. After I bought it, I saw a demo of Poker Superstars #2. Anyone who thinks they can learn on this game and then go out and become a poker millionaire, like their PR implies, is in for a rude awakening.
You guessed it, the game really lived up to the claim of being "number 2," if you know what I mean.
I tried that one as well.
This game is not realistic at all, and it was no challenge whatsoever.
A game needs to take me away from my own life to some kind of realistic diversion.
And, like others said, I could not detect ANY difference in the play styles of the stars.
I won several tournaments in a row simply by going ALL-IN whenever I had a decent hand.
For my part, I tested out incredibly stupid tactics (like going ALL-IN EVERY hand whether I had something or not,) and easily won time and time again.
Bottom Line : Not fun and not challenging.
I kick myself for giving it any stars at all.
i have and play the World poker tour game and it is so far superior to this. I only played this one time and haven't thought of playing it since.
This is a great game for novice's and/or beginners. I highly recommend this one. I downloaded it about a year ago, before I new a flush from a straight. Best of all, I like kickin' the pro's butt. since then.I've won the millon $ multiple times.
* What the minimum raise amount is. Don't get me wrong, it has the very basic rules right. In addition, the visuals are cluttered, and the blind and ante levels aren't always displayed. Despite all this, it's kind of fun but not as much fun, or challenging, as playing free online poker with play money. But it does not follow poker rules when it comes to:. * Announcing raises (the pros make string bets). * Who pays which blind during heads-up play.
Unlike a other reviewers I could see a difference in style with some of the players. To me this is one of the downsides of the game. The AI is interesting. The early tables are easy. Where most would fold prior to the flop, at least 1 or two players always stay in sometimes up to the river.
The tournament is set so that the 8 players playing will play 7 tables. I have had the game for about 2 months now and I still play a few hands when I need to relax. If I lose at the first table I am not out of the tournament. The final table however, the players all of a sudden start playing looser. All in all, if you are just looking for a fun game to play, this is a good choice. Basically I could lose each of the first tables and still make it to the final table, just with a reduced chip amount. I wish the tournament gave you new players at each table and required you to win the table to advance.
I downloaded this game because I had just played hold'em for the first time a couple of weeks earlier. For instance, Phil Ivey almost never bluffs. TJ is impatient and will go all in at the slightest whim. I wanted a game that was fun and this one definitely fit the bill. This is an easy game to get started. My main gripe is the lack of true tournament play.
Unlike other "trainers" there aren't a lot of options that must be set up (this is also a fault. After a few hands I was able to bluff when I needed and suck players into going all in. The purpose of the first 6 tables is to determine the final table starting chip amount. Each game is a new table with new chips.
