Whether you’re a newbie or a weathered poker player, you will find Texas Poker to be a great app for the iPhone. The game is very interactive and enjoyable, and there are still many other reasons why you should decide to download this app. Let’s read a full review of Texas Poker for the iPhone.
About the Game
Kama Games is the name behind Texas Poker. It is a game that comprises all the elements that make poker a brilliant pastime. Throughout the game, you will have a heap of opportunities to bluff, bet, apply mathematical skills, and basically, win or lose large sums of money. Choose from a wide variety of poker tables and join a bunch of poker players of all levels from all over the world.
The Gameplay
Once you have downloaded and installed Texas Poker on your iPhone, you can already play with millions of poker players from all over the world. If you’re a newbie to poker, there’s an in-app guide to walk you through the mechanics of the game. For the poker experts, you can skip the tutorial and move straight to the tables. There’s no need to go through the lengthy registration process. You have the options of logging in as a guest or as a registered user. The latter enables you to save all scores, chips and level. Texas Poker can really be a fast-paced game and the only thing that can slow down the gameplay relies on how other players play the game.
The first thing you need to do is pick your table where you want to play. Once you have a seat, you will need to buy in and let the betting, bluffing and folding begin. So, what if you lost all your winnings? Don’t worry! You can have more chips from a daily lottery wherein anyone can win from 100 to 100,000 chips. If you are feeling the heat, you can also buy them in-app so you can continuously enjoy the game without leaving the table. Of course, there’s really no need to spend any real money if you play the cards right, or if you can wait until tomorrow for another poker tournament.
User Interface
Texas Poker has an easy-to-use interface where players can navigate the iPhone screen without any difficulty. Players can have the option to buy chips, view your opponent’s stats, see which friends are online, and many more. There’s even a chat box that facilitates online communication among players. Here, you can discuss anything, from strategy, near wins, agonizing losses and much more. Whether you want to call, raise, check or fold, all you need is to simply tap the designated box for whichever feat you want to pursue. If it takes you too long to decide which action to take, your iPhone will vibrate to remind you that you have to make a decision– now.
If you are willing to shell out a bit of cash, you can become a VIP player where you will get to enjoy better interface, free gifts, private VIP tables, etc. If you need any help getting the hang of the game, you can always access the Help button that is located right of the main screen.
Multiplayer Features
There are hundreds of thousands players online daily so you don’t have to gather eight of your friends at the poker table anymore. You can easily find a table that fits your level of playing wherein you can instantly compete against other live players anytime.
Graphics and Sound Effects
Texas Poker has high definition graphics, and it is definitely a pleasure to navigate around the game smoothly. However, the chat box is rather obscured such that you can hardly see any characters per reply. The sound effects are good, with the chip stacking sounds adding real thrill to the game. There’s also the “ding” sound that signals you when it’s your turn to raise, check, call or fold.
Conclusion
If you like to try virtual poker, Texas Poker makes a great interactive app that can help hone your playing skills. The good news is that you can download the app on your iPhone for free.
