    Prominence Poker is the poker game console players have been waiting for. After putting up with the bland Pure Holdem it's great to have a poker game which does all things well.

Apart from that a great poker game from Pipeworks studio who also made World Series of Poker Full House pro.… Expand

    Prominence Poker is free to play but I haven't had to drop a dime on it. There is a daily allotment of funds and if you are PS+ you can start off with a large bank by going to the store and redeeming a free download. Always people online to play a game of either a tournament or drop in tables. Much better than Pure Poker which costs $20.

    Prominence Poker is the worst poker game ever.

    While the graphics are stellar, the game play sucks. instead of a randomizer script, they use a snap back script that rewards the losing player thus creating a game that feels more like an adversarial environment. more than a few times my trip card hand was give to my opponent as he hits an inside straight, my straight had been given over    Prominence Poker is the worst poker game ever.

    Having had moderate success at microstakes online and finding the whole 'play money' a complete waste of time, Prominence Poker was a nice surprise.

    The game is like any mobile poker platform out there. It can be expensive to play, but it has some depths character customization and other things that makes it feel a little bit better to play. The AI is very dumb, making it 0 challenge to play it if you are not facing an online opponent.

    Great game. Nothing I don't like about it. I only play in real-time, multiplayer tourneys, so can't complain about AI. Could use more emotes. Some tourneys take a while, but it becomes a battle of attrition, just as in real life. I have spent many 4-hour sessions at casino tables; a 30-40 min Prominence tournament is just fine with me. Love my avatar. Love kicking butt at the tables.Great game. Nothing I don't like about it. I only play in real-time, multiplayer tourneys, so can't complain about AI. Could use more emotes.

    So I’ve been playing this game for the past 4 months nonstop, I genuinely hate it but I’m a fan of poker so I find it’s the best game to play next to the casinos... However the biggest issue I find with this game is the realism in the River always benefiting certain players.

However the biggest issue I find with this game is the realism in the River always benefiting certain players. Countless times I’ll go in to a hand with a pair of aces and kings on the flop and my opponent will have a 2 and a 7 off suit and will end up with a full house or 3 of a kind and beat me. It literally always happens on the river. 3 Aces off the flop and I’ve lost on the river to a 5 of clubs for a flush. The realism just is lacking heavily I find. I don’t understand why it’s always like this. I’ve lost countless chips to this existing issue. I just played a game maybe an hour ago and I had AK off the flop two pairs... the opponent had A 4 and on the turn a 4 came up to give him 2 pair mine being the higher pair, and of course on the river another **** 4 comes up. How is this possible and so consistent? I play poker competitively and I just don’t understand the logic in making the river win percentage so high ...? Can I get an explanation of possible thanks… Expand

    Очень необычная реализация покера с созданием своего персонажа, и рейтингом.
    Есть к чему сиремиться, и игра всегла вовлекает в процесс.

    If you want to play actual poker, this is the wrong game for you. Nothing random about the "shuffle." Just bad beats for everybody ad infinitum in the hopes they bust your bankroll and you buy their chips. Don't buy from them. Give your money to a charity or the poor instead.

    Exceptional, truly an underrated game and seriously good. It's not difficult, so it's easy to play for amateurs, but it's also enjoyable for professionals. I don't understand the rating of 5.9.

    Prominence Poker gets two things right. It's free and it knows the rules of poker. It's a serviceable poker game with a focus on online play and player customisation. What it probably needed to do is concentrate on giving players an uncluttered interface but instead it's all about the custom suits and silly hats which is odd given how ugly the game is. But it's a poker game and it isn't going to offend anyone and the game has an odd self-confidence about it. It may be bluffing though.

    This makes it an enjoyable way to play poker for anyone who doesn't particularly want to risk their bank balance playing for real money, though the lack of a compelling progression system and underwhelming single player scenarios will more than likely stop you from going all-in.

    Prominence Poker is surprisingly enjoyable as a casual, yet competitive, multiplayer game.
