Smoke'em Poker
This is a really great poker game, for a start it's got a simple and easy to use interface,
there are certain buttons availabe at certain times, so you can't really do anything wrong, and
if your still not sure whats going on theres a great help file, the help file contains
information about the software as well as information about poker, even if your new to the game
you'll soon be able to get into it.
The computer controls the 5 other players, which all have random playing styles, such as some
may bluff other may be tight with their money ect. Most of the options can be changed, which
makes it even better because you can customise the play to your liking, for example you can set
the players you play against, you can chose their skill and their style of play. Also you can
change other things like how much cash you start with, how much you can bet, and the card backs
can be chose from a fairly big selection, also the speed of the play can be set, so when you
have folded the play is sped up until you are back. Another thing is you can save your games, so
you can carry on as long as you want, and if you want you can just sit back and watch the
computers playing instead.
Also the game features a graph showing how well all the players have done as well as stats on
the hands that have been delt, such as how many pairs have won a game, what the biggest pot
winning was who won it, and things like that, it also shows the odds of making your current hand
better, so if you had a pair you can see what chances you have of improving it.
The last thing to mention about this game is the sounds, they are really good, they are taken
out of various things such as the simpsons ect, they work well with the game, so if you enjoy a
game of poker download this right now, you won't regret it. - Dean Hughes
