Poker Academy V2 is a must buy! I have been playing poker all my life, but only recently have I focused on Texas Hold Em.
Each time I play, I increase my skills, but I don't play often enough against quality opponents. When I came across Poker Academy V2, I was skeptical about how much it would help me learn the game. Well, let me tell you, I am significantly better than I was before.
Not only are the computer opponents better than any other poker game out there, but the program allows you to see every statistic possible about your cards, the pot odds, and how you bet overall. For example, I learned that I was very passive pre-flop but very aggressive post-flop. I also learned what happens when I call to see a flop with the various different card combos and how many outcomes are possible. The programmers, who have set up an extremely complex algorithm to run the game, give you access to all the components that make up that code so you can get a better idea of all the odds and percentages of everything that happens in a round of poker. When you watch on TV and you see people call 'time,' they are calculating in their head the pot odds, which includes how much they have invested in the pot compared to the total number of cards that will help them win or lose. Poker Academy V2 does this as well, so you can begin to pick up patterns with certain hands, which translates into better and smarter betting on a real table.

The best thing I can say about this Poker training tool (I think of it more as a tool than a game) is how well I have done at a real Texas Hold Em table. During my most recent trip, on a $3/6 Limit Table, I won over $280 in about 2 hours by using all the knowledge I have gained about how to play Texas Hold Em and about how I play my game.
In other words, the more I know about my skills, the better I act at the table. For the price Amazon sells this product compared to how much I won on my last trip, I would say Poker Academy V2 is well worth it. Spend the money now, learn to play the game better (no matter what your experience level is), and go win at a real table. I received this a couple of days ago. Mine arrived in the mail very quickly, but without the booklet that contained the activation code, but if this happens and you get in touch with the Poker Academy customer support, they will quickly get it sorted out and supply you with a code. Without any doubt at all this is the best software package for Texas Hold'em, either in this version, or in the more expensive Pro version, that there is out there.
I have played a bit with one or two other programs, but this one is far superior in every respect, and the online Poker Academy site is also a very valuable resource. The design and layout of the tables is far superior to nearly all of the online poker rooms that I have seen, with all the information you need or want neatly displayed without clutter or visual distractions. The artificial intelligence powered players are terrific, and there is all kinds of extra statistical stuff to help you out. Quite frankly it is hard to see how anyone who really wants to develop Hold'em skills can be without this tool.
In the regular version (this one) you get an only slightly stripped down version of the rather expensive Pro version for a very reasonable price-but without some of the more esoteric refinements that the average person would not want or need. Would make a great Xmas or birthday gift for any poker player in your family who does not have it already, or for anyone who has a laptop and would like to become a poker addict. The tables look great, especially in the online tournaments, on my widescreen monitor, which is perfect for the game.
Or if you want to put together a dedicated machine for poker practice, it will run on a laptop with a 800 mhz chip speed, which you can now pick up these days for less than half the price of the latest laptops, and take it with you anywhere. (Of course, if you already have a laptop ignore this.) Just terrific. Please note that this review should have a five star rating, but for some reason Amazon will not allow corrections to a star rating when editing a review. Strange, but true. Poker Academy V2 is a must buy!

When I was in the market for poker software, I sifted through dozens of online reviews. I considered price, game play, AI of computer opponents and online play. Poker Academy was far and away my first choice, but I also bought EAGLE GAMES Tournament Poker, because I found it for a great price.
Although EGTP is good, in my opinion, it doesn't compare to Poker Academy. The AI isn't nearly as strong and there is no online option. The computer opponents in PA are very challenging and the format is great. There are many ongoing statistical categories which break down your playing style and tendencies. The feature that really seperates PA from the rest is the online game play.
This alone is well worth the purchase price! You can play both ring games and tournaments for the PA currency, which is called PAX. The great thing about this is that you have to earn every cent of PAX.
You aren't given anything to start, so you must either win or place high in games/tournaments to earn it. Games vary from.05/.10 games, up to $50 tournaments. There are roughly anywhere from 40 - 80 members at Poker Academy Online at any given time, so there's always a game to be had. Because PAX is paid out in very realistic amounts (approx. $35 for a tournament win of 10 people,) it really feels like you're playing with real money.
This fact causes me to appreciate the 'currency' much more than I would if I could go to the cashier and instantly grab another $1,000 every 5 minutes. I really can't praise this game enough, and I haven't seen anything else (especially for under $18) that comes anywhere close to Poker Academy V2. Career mode in a future edition would really put PA over the top, but it's terrific as it stands. I highly recommend it. This is a review of Poker Academy Texas Hold'em 2.0. I became intrigued with Texas Hold'em poker after watching some World Series of Poker (WSOP) games on TV.
I bought a book to learn to play the game better (Phil Hellmuth's Play Poker like the Pros, which I have also reviewed on amazon.com), and after that I found that my current casino software did not play well enough to give me a challenge. (I was using Hoyle Casino 3D.) After reading a few reviews, I decided that Poker Academy 2.0 looked like the best available, so I bought it. I have been very satisfied with my purchase! But this is not the right software for everyone.
You need to ask yourself a few questions. Are you easily intimidated by software that does not have instructions to walk you slowly through its features? Do you want a game with cute features, like cartoon characters who make whimsical chit-chat? Do you want software that plays as badly as your Aunt Enda and Cousin Chuck? Do statistical data (like the 'pot odds') make your eyes glaze over? If you answered, Yes, to any of these questions, then Poker Academy is probably not for you. Are you the kind of person who likes to explore software without too much guidance?
Do you want an attractive but uncluttered interface that just tells you what you need to know? Do you want genuinely challenging computer opponents who will beat you consistently until you improve your game? Are you willing to make the effort to learn from the tools the software gives you? If you answered, Yes, to most or all of these questions, then you will love Poker Academy. The main playing interface has a simple ten-chair table on the left, where cards are dealt as you would expect in Texas Hold'em. On the right are stacked windows that you can collapse and toggle for different content. Among the data you have access to are your session stats (such as your win rate for hands played), tournament stats (your rank, total number of players left, average stack, etc.), a 'hand evaluator' (what percentage of hands can you beat with your current hand, what are the 'pot odds'), and a 'transcript' of how play has progressed.
(Your hands are all archived so you can review them later.) The game has several very nice features: 1. A computer advisor, whom you can toggle to be visible all the time, or just when you mouse over him. (As the help file observes, this will mainly be useful if you are a beginner.) 2. The ability to replay a hand. If I lose a hand, I often replay it, to see if and when I made a crucial mistake.
An online play option. The ability to automatically update to the latest version of the game. As soon as I installed the software, it asked to access the web, and then updated to version 2.5 (free of charge). (I notice that there is a 'professional version,' which is different and rather expensive. I haven't tried it.) I have a couple of minor complaints. I'm surprised there's not a 'pause' or 'freeze' button to stop during a showdown (for example), so you can think more carefully about what is happening. (But you can adjust the general speed of play.) And I wish I could re-arrange the side windows.
(Shouldn't you be able to click and drag them around?) But these are pretty minor issues. Overall, this is great software for serious players! This is a great poker game. The offline play is better than poker games I have played in the past because the computer acts more like real people. The real fun is the online play.
You start off with 20-50 player 'free-roll' tournaments where you win play money called PAX if you seal one of the top positions. These tournaments cost nothing to enter. Once you have some PAX money from winning a free-roll tournament, you can enter games (which cost you PAX to enter) against other people who have won in the past. The system is well thought out which makes it more enjoyable then other online sites whos primary objective is to get you using real money.
It is not possible to use real money with this game so they put extra thought into making the play money more enjoyable. The downsides are that the online servers can be filled to capacity which means you can't get in at all times. Another disadvantage is that you can't scale the window so that it fits your monitor nicely. You are stuck with only two window sizes; 800x600 and 1024x786. If you and a friend want to log in online at the same time you need to have two separate license keys because the servers won't let two users using the same licenses game at the same time. But for $20 its not a big deal to order a second copy.
Overall my wife and I love this game. The online tournaments are a lot of fun and you do learn a few good tips about no-limit holdem as well as interacting with live people and learning all of the different poker styles people use (passive, aggressive, super aggressive, etc). I haven't noticed anything but normal distribution of cards that you would see in real life - just throwing that out there since some people complained the AI kept getting good hands. Sometimes the computer gets good hands and sometimes you hit a streak, just like live poker. Over all a great game! I received this a couple of days ago. Mine arrived in the mail very quickly, but without the booklet that contained the activation code, but if this happens and you get in touch with the Poker Academy customer support, they will quickly get it sorted out and supply you with a code.

This product looks like a great deal on the surface, but you need to realize that it is only a demo. You can download the demo, for free, from Poker Academy online and save yourself the $20. The free download will allow you to upgrade to the full-featured Poker Academy immediately. The upgrade is $129 but well worth it, since it is much more adaptable than the Wilson Software Tournament Hold'em disc. For example, you can set this game to play only heads-up matches, if you want.
Or you can play four-handed, to simulate bubble play in sit-n-go tourneys. And there's much, much more. I love it, but be sure to download the free demo rather than wasting your money on this product.
This program is such an excellent learning tool, that I hesitate to review it. If everyone else starts using it, that could take away some of my edge in the game.wink.
The bots all have their own playing styles. Some are aggressive, some passive, some sneakier and others more straightforward. Many adjust to your playing style, while others don't seem to be quite so perceptive. All in all, it's quite a bit like a real game, but without putting your money on the line. However, it plays as though there is real money involved, which makes it better than playing against other players online for free. I have not experimented with different advisors, but have found that it's better for me to ignore what the default ones tell me to do.
I would highly recommend Poker Academy. It has a lot of great features and is smooth and fun to play. I think the other reviews cover all the great features (great AI, detailed stats, a helpful advisor, great online play) so I would like to focus on the difference between versions 2.0 and 2.5.

The following is going to seem like a lot of nitpicky stuff, and it's mostly here just to help people decide if they want to upgrade to v2.5 or not. Despite the following, I would highly recommend this product because of its overall quality. If you order this product and get 2.0 and are connected to the Internet, you will be offered to upgrade to v2.5 for free. I would consider passing on 2.5 and waiting for 2.6 or 3.0. Here is why: - In version 2.5, the background of the stats windows is changed from a nice red to an ugly gray with orange type. The large round easy-to-click betting buttons are replaced by smaller square gray buttons that are harder to click on. When I pot is split, and there is an uneven amount, it will give one of the players 50 cents.
This can be extremely annoying and distracting because you can never bet that 50 cents so the stacks around the table might look like this for example: $8,700, $10,200, $1,500, $23,500, $17,500.50. It looks stupid. There is a minor bug when selecting the settings for a customized tournament. I was playing No-limit Poker Circuit with 162 players to practice for an upcoming live tournament I've entered. Poker Circuit tournaments start with a default of 10 players so you have to enter '162' into the players box.
Then you click Start. Except when I do this, it starts with only 10 players. So I have to quit the tournament and do it again. Then it registers the 162 I entered. Not sure why, but this did not happen in v2.0. The default payouts changed. This isn't a huge deal, but it's yet another thing that could have just been left alone.
In the 162-person tournament I described above, the top 18 people or so (I forget the exact amount) would finish in the money in v2.0. In version 2.5, only the top 3 win prizes. Maybe they changed this to more accurately reflect a real Poker Circuit tourney, but I got kind of angry when I finished 6th and didn't win a dang thing. Here's a more general comment about all versions: The Advisor doesn't seem to account for bluffing. The Advisor will give you advice on whether to Fold, Call, or Raise.
And it seems to do it strictly on what your card is, the size of the pot and remaining stacks, etc. But it doesn't seem to account for bluffing. If you want to win a real tournament, you're going to have to bluff and call in situations when you think you're being bluffed.
So as you play Poker Academy and learn, you're going to have to keep your eyes out for these opportunities and ignore the advice of the Advisor. Again, I would still definitely get this product as it's better than most other poker software packages. Poker Academy runs well on any half-way modern Mac, but I originally bought this game as a present for my parents who are using a very servicable but very old iMac G3 400 Mhz. Unfortunately while some sites list this as within the system requirements the box clearly says 800 Mhz. Now, don't get me wrong, it runs.
Just not very well. Poker Academy is a Java application, and the overhead of that as opposed to a pure Objective C application means that low end configurations need considerable RAM to run at even acceptable speeds. Moreover, long sessions seem to slow this game down like nobody's business. While the game is peppy for the first few dozen hands, a table that has lasted past 50 hands will experience major slowdown on a low end system. Maxing out the RAM to 1 GB managed to forestall the slowdown until the 100 hands mark, but eventually, no matter how much RAM you have, if you have a low end processor the game will eventually turn into a festival of spinning beachballs that takes 10-15 minutes to deal out a single hand.

Not acceptable by any stretch of the imagination. If you like Poker, and if you have a modern system (take those system requirements seriously), this is a very nice game for a very affordable price. I hope the developers eventually port the game to a native binary though, as that would doubtlessly make it run better on the low end systems.
