it could've been better !!! by I. hwang 3 Stars
November 10, 2006
i was very disappointed with Stacked (PC), especially with all the hoopla about the supposedly higher A.I. capability, it was very so-so. the graphics is almost designed for mid-90's pcs, and the character creation was a joke.

Best one so far... by Matthew C. Stuart (Parker, CO) 5 Stars

I play poker ALOT...and needless to say this is the best out there so far. It has one thing that I do NOT like. You cannot type in an exact amount that you may want to bet. Instead you have to use the slider. Regardless, with that one exception it is by far better than WSOP. This program is EXCELLENT for the novice/beginner. The "Poker School" videos included with Daniel are super. Even if you consider yourself a "well read" or experienced player, you can still gain some good experience and a little bit of fun here. The aspect of "Career Mode" adds to the aspect of unlocking other events and Pro-Players as you progress. With all the books, videos and games out there that are trying to tap into the "newbie" crowd....buy this one! Books are great, but experience is better. Find a local group of players or "club" in your area. Play as much as you can and as much as you can afford. Trade books and videos with each other. Over time, you will be a better player for it.

Pretty Decent by Joshua M. Gillette 4 Stars

To the guy who said you cannot get the patch without subscribing... Apparently you did not visit the Official Stacked Website. The patch is available there with ZERO hassles. The game is pretty decent. I enjoy the variety offered. The game has been very stable for me especially with the latest patch. Try it out, I don't think you will be disappointed. Besides at $20 it is a steal if you ask me.

SLACKED by G. Vincent 1 Stars

Stacked is an annoying bit of software. It is not user friendly, I find it very difficult to make accurate bets, and the control panel is counter-intuitive. The tips are useless to a seasoned player and if you try to play on a notebook the graphics are too small and controls unmanageable. I guess you can arrange your keyboard to make playing easier but then I would have to study the manual to figure out how to play a game I don't like playing. The game plays too slowly and it is not a good simulation of a casino experience at all. I have trouble knowing what position I'm in, who is up to bet, seeing the cards, and managing the bets. Just about every facet of the game is somewhat annoying. Now I hear there is a patch available for the retail version, GREAT. Except when I try to download the patch they insist that I subscribe to something. I don't want to throw more money at a poor product, I paid full price and it is already discounted. The least they could offer is a free patch less than 2 months after initial purchase. I am getting more steamed tham Phil Helmuth being beaten by an amateur.

Nice game for "no-cash-gamers" by Marcus Elmebratt (Sweden) 4 Stars

If you don't play online for real money this is the best game so far. Playing online against other real-players is the best of this game. Playing offline is to play against yourself...
