Poker may not be a difficult game to learn, but what really distinguishes the pros from the amateurs is knowing all the tricks and ropes to win hands. Poker Academy is aimed at improving your level at poker. The game pits you against virtual players, meaning you don't have to worry about betting actual money, and lets you control up to 200 hands so you can see and learn from all sorts of situations. The game can really be tweaked according to your level of play, and you can set the level of opponents and host your own tournaments. Poker Academy has many well prepared tutorials to guide you, but even better, will provide all sorts of statistics to examine your hands, wins and losses. You can also create filters to analyze your game even more closely. One feature we quite liked was the Hand Evaluator, which can tell you your chances according to your flop (first three face up cards). Poker Academy will certainly allow you to improve the game. 6 hours of demo probably aren't enough though, as you can get easily hooked to poker. If you decide to purchase the game you can then get into more serious games with other real Poker Academy players. There are so many options and menus to choose from that the game can seem a little confusing at first. Poker Academy will allow you to improve your game of poker significantly with loads of statistics and useful tutorials. Recommended for poker lovers.
