Bad if serious about poker July 23, 2006 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This game will actually make your poker play worse. If you are at all serious about poker don't buy this.
Great Game for the Fish December 12, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Listen, if you view hold'em as gambling, this game is good. It is easy to play and you have a good chance to win. If you play serious winning poker, this game has a lot to be desired. I only play ring-games, so I quickly beat the tournaments, and began to play the ring games. If you can't beat these, you really need a new hobby. Yes, the computer players are all calling stations, and they do play loose-passive, but go to Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, and that is how they play. An experienced hold'em player should never have a losing session. Therefore it is too easy for poker veterans. Unfortunatly, it is very addictive and I keep stroking my ego by winning.
Save your money... September 27, 2005 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Goodness gracious! My expectations were extremely low when I purchased this game, but still it managed to disappoint me. The play is NOTHING like the real thing. You can go all in, and still every player will call you, every time. The interface is uninspiring, with little to enjoy. Do not recommend this game at any price.
Good to kill time, but that's it February 20, 2005 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Any weathered Texas Hold 'Em player won't find much realism here in this GBA title from Majesco. The computer players will stay in with any hand, which means if your looking to play this to practice your poker skills, you'll find just how unrealistic this is. The fact that Texas Hold 'Em is so cheap in price makes it worth purchasing for GBA owners who enjoy the card game, as it is a good time killer. However, playing this GBA game for extended periods of time will show just how shoddy a job was done designing this game. The graphics are simplistic but colorful and they suit the game, while the sound is simplisticly done as well. The control scheme is easy to get a hold of as well, making the game easy to get into. Despite it's good qualities though, Texas Hold 'Em for the GBA fails to evoke the same kind of fun and strategic qualities that the card game gives you, but if you want a good and cheap time killer for your GBA, look no further.
Disappointing - unrealistic play December 29, 2004 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
The graphics on the game are good, and as a basic poker game it passes, but if you're looking to practice your skills with this game, it disappoints. All of the computer players stay in with basically any hand, regardless of the level of play. I've been beaten by too many Two-Eight off suits to mention.
