THETA Poker Pro-Texas Hold 'Em App Reviews

If youre looking for a poker app that challenges and builds your poker skills, this is it. By playing on the highest difficulty level, the app really does simulate an excellent game. No hidden fees or any costs needed to have endless fun.

Guys, Ill start by saying Im 100% blind. I use the voiceover screen reader to play poker. This is the first developer that decided to make a poker app accessible, and you can customise everything! Ive learned how to play texas oldem with this app, now I cant put it down. Accessibility gets better and better with each update but now with this last version the accessibility cant get better than that!! I think I can play a lot faster compared to someone sighted. If I could I would purchase the app again and again, we really need more developers like this guy that invested his time making the app the best poker app. If youre sighted then dont even think once, buy it now!!!

This poker game is really very great and it is very accessible with voice-over I am very new with poker games and I have problems with it because it is only not available in German.

The best!

How many years since the first game, and the graphics are all exactly the same? Really weak. Also, AI is mediocre, havent unlocked highest difficulty though. However I dont really suspect it would change my opinion.

For those who say the AI is too easy, crank it up to Hard in the options. You dont have to unlock that, its available immediately. I agree that the graphics are ugly but the interface is actually very usable once you get used to it.

This app is geared towards serious HoldEm players. It has loads of features and options that you would not see in a typical glitzy app. At the top levels, its AI is quite good too, at least to my reckoning. The developer is extremely helpful and provides the most detailed release notes Ive ever seen in an app. Its clear a huge amount of time went into the features that distinguish this serius tool from ones geared more to the masses. For example, there are dozens of settings to customize the way it works, including ones to make it nearly instantaneous to begin the next hand after you fold (like Rush Poker worked at Full Tilt). You have complete control over a huge variety of factors (career mode, practice mode, ring game vs tournament vs shootout, the level of skill of the computer bots, the number of players per table, the buy-in amount, the size of the antes and blinds, all sorts of look-and-feel and how-to-operate-it customizations, sounds, and much more. All sorts of statistics are kept. You can export your games to files that are usable in the major professional poker-tracking applications for Mac/Windows. And everything is backed up by extensive help and a very responsive developer. If youre a serious player looking to log, and even analyze, thousands of hands in a particular format, nothing else comes close. No, it doesnt have cartoon characters who spout cliched sayings at you, as do most of the mass-market HoldEm apps. But if youre really serious about HoldEm, or want to be, this is the app to buy.

I very much like the extra speed and the ability to prefold, which makes it even faster.

Ive purchased several Poker games, but they never last long. This is the game Ive always wanted. I dont want to play on-line with anyone. I dont want cute graphics. I sure as heck dont want to purchase chips! I just want to play proper 8 hand tournament-style poker with good opponents. Is the AI great? It works for me. I win against the easy ones and lose more as they get better. The playability of the game is by far the best Ive seen. You can play as fast as you want. Good data too, if you like this. Great job guys!

If youre looking for an AI poker game where the opponents dont know the community cards pre-flop, keep looking. This isnt for you.

I really admire when a developer makes a great game and makes it accessible. This is lots of fun and I cant stop playing it!

In the default career mode, the player can progress through larger and larger tournaments. Placing in one tournament is required to buy into the next larger tournament. This will provide hundreds of hours of strong AI opposition. Stats, sending hand recaps and many custom options make this app an excellent poker learning tool. The app is VoiceOver accessible, users looking for this can purchase with confidence!

If youre looking for a texas holdem game where the AI wont call an all in with a high card hand, its finally here. Pros: AI is absolutely fantastic, incredibly realistic. -Great interface with plenty of options for gameflow and slick ways of calling/folding/betting, etc. -The AI allows more serious players a risk free method of enhancing their skills. -Very gratifying progression by building your bankroll to advance. -Different difficulty settings depending on your level of skill. -AI, we did go over how well the robots play poker didnt we? Cons- Very bland graphics and cosmetic effects. All substance, no flash. (However, even this could be viewed as a Pro since its very battery efficient.) - The different game speed options doesnt allow you to make a seperate speed for how fast/slow the turn and the river cards come out, removing the suspense for the climax of a big hand. - Tournament games only, no cash game/sit and go options to build your stack. - Losing everything puts you back to first table, which you have to win to move back to the first tourney, which can get extremely tedious. Would be preferably to have the default 24 player tourney as the fall back table. Overall, THETA is really the only texas holdem game worth downloading if youre wanting some real non-live poker.

Ive been playing the Pro version of Theta Poker for at least six months so Ive spent enough time with the app for an informed opinion. Perhaps I misunderstand the rave reviews about how great the "AI" is. What I can tell you from having played thousands of hands is that the system consistently appears to "cheat". Its unbelievable how often one of the players will raise before the flop with something like 8/3 unsuited and then catch two 3s and an 8 on the flop. It happens ALL THE TIME. I play only the hard difficulty level and am consistently frustrated by these fictional players not just catching lucky breaks, but catching the absolute luckiest breaks. Its one thing to be playing against a loose player who catches a break on the river card...you run into them in everyday life. But the players in Theta Poker routinely make terrible calls because they seemingly have knowledge of the upcoming cards. Its an exercise in frustration to continue to try to hone my own skills when I cant possibly beat the rigged system. I cant recommend this app as anything more than a way to pass time.

Theta Poker is the poker app Ive been searching for, for years! Ive tried just about every free and a few paid poker apps on the store and none are as perfect as Theta Poker! Definitely worth the price! If youre looking for poker with AI (computer players) unlimited playing (i.e. no waiting for chips, no timers, etc.), intuitive controls (one touch playing), customizable cards and tables, universal device support, all of that on top of being regularly updated!! This is the app for you! I highly recommend this app to anyone who likes on the go poker, with easy controls and computer players! Great app! Keep it up! I love Theta Poker! Best on the go, instant poker game in my pocket!

this game provides an excellent way to improve your poker skills. The developer has also done an excellent job making this game accessible with the voice over screen reader.

I use extensively to work on my poker skills.

Being from the U.S. where online poker is illegal, this app fills the practice gap since I cant be at the casino all of the time and free poker online doesnt provide serious opponents. The AI is well honed and the developer is updating it all the time. I highly recommend this app for anyone who wants to keep their holdem skills sharp while they cant be at a real money game.

This site is only tournament format. It has nothing for cash play practice, a fact you do not realize until you pay for the app and open it. Cash play and tournament play are decidedly different. Players who are primarily cash players tend to play too loose in tournaments, while people who are primarily tournament players play too tight in cash games. This app cannot improve your cash game skills.

I would recommend this game to anyone that enjoys Texas Holdem and also to someone that is brand new to the game. The game is very entertaining as well as extremely educational, challenging players of all levels. If you want experience, this game allows you to play 350+ games per hour by changing the game play settings. It also includes advanced statistics and hand history. Great game all the way around!
