Governor of Poker 3 - Friends Wiki

I love this game and think they do a great job keeping RNG standards. It’s poker, you’re not always going to win but that’s the nature of the beast, it’s a gamble. Don’t expect the game to just let you win. You’re playing against individuals who also have their own strategies. Some are call stations some like to go all in immediately every hand which is annoying and can take away from the experience of the rest of the players at the table who want to utilize strategy. But that’s also the nature of the game, in real life people do that as well. I have yet to spend a dime on the game and have won up to a million several times. This game gave me more confidence to get out there and play the actual tables and I’ve done well. It’s definitely comparable to IRL to me in a lot of ways

There’s a lot of people on here crying about bad beats, but that’s just something you have to live with as a poker player, especially with an online style format. You see more hands, you’ll see more swings. Couple that with the fact that this isn’t using real money per say, and you’ll find weird spots like aces and kings getting cracked by garbage hands. Just the nature of the beast, mathematically premium hands can’t win 100% of the time. I enjoy playing this game a lot, I would love to see a low and mid stakes pot limit Omaha implemented in the future, just for something new. I appreciate the consistent updates and hope you take my suggestion into consideration because I’m surely not the only one that’s been hoping for this. Cheers and Good luck at the tables!

This is a very fun and addicting game but what starts off as enjoyable poker where skill meets skill, it quickly turns into roulette as players with the tier level VIP, and High Roller (they have over 3 million chips) come in and Consistently go “all-in” before any cards are shown in attempt to bully the table in donating their chips to them. The blinds are a drop in the ocean to them so they just consistently keep doing it until they bust the table or everyone else leaves. My suggestion would be to keep the tiers playing with the same tiers to keep the pots even. Or have a higher blind for VIP /High rollers on non high roller rooms tables, or auto boot someone from a table if the go “all-in” 3 times consecutively. Just some thoughts. Overall a really fun game and glad I downloaded it.

This is a decent poker app for online playability. Interestingly enough, unlike the original computer based GOP, this app does not have offline playability. It’s designed for online play and is very customizable w/ characters and tiered levels. It’s also HIGHLY geared towards soliciting real money from its players. When I originally downloaded GOP3 I paid for the ‘ad-free’ version. 4 months later and the app prompted me to purchase something in app to avoid future game interrupting ads. So, I spent $5 to get some chips during a ‘special’ it offered. No more ads for now. All in all not a bad app but just like most of these phone apps they will solicit you for real money one way or another.

I’ve been playing this game for maybe a year and a half and it is fun, but you will get frustrated a lot. Strangely when you get someone to go all in with the worst hand they end up winning probably 90% of the time. Then there are other players who seemingly never lose. They have profiles full of trophies and rings and huge bankrolls and they somehow always beat the odds. Once I go broke in this game I’m moving on to something else. Added note: a lot of folks complain about donk players just shoving all in with any two cards. I believe this is a result of the overly abundant bad beats that are available in this game. People get frustrated with losing to junk hands over and over and over again so they just start pushing all in with anything. I have gotten frustrated and been guilty of doing this myself. The robotic responses to people’s reviews are a big clue as to what’s going on here. “We use the best......we favor no one.....better luck next time...” Also the spins are a joke. No one ever wins the higher amounts. I’ve done thousands of spins and it’s always bottom of the barrel wins. DO NOT waste your money buying them, they’ll ask you every time you log in.

This game overall is a solid poker game. Lots of different tier tables to play at. Some customization options for your character. My only issue with the game is the free money wheel spins. So you get a free wheel spin every 4 hours. Every wheel spin I’ve done so far I’ve only gotten about 1,000-4,000. Once you out do like 5 spins, you get a jackpot spin that’s supposed to give you the chance to win some really big bucks. You know what I got out of my jackpot spin? $2,000......you kidding me? Which, it’s obvious they have the RNG set to you not getting crap from these spins so you’ll spend real money on wheel spins. Which god knows people will do. The odds of you getting anything significant is obviously really low. And it’ll stay that way so that people will end up spending money on the game. So, these free wheel spins are a joke.

I absolutely love playing GOP3. It’s a fun community of gamers. The poker games itself are fun with levels and prizes to work towards including team incentivized prizes. My issues are a bug with the blackjack game where when playing a higher limit room, the screen will freeze and then you get bounced out to the low limit, and my BIGGEST complaint is that each time I’ve purchased my piggy bank, half of the chips go missing at some point shortly after purchasing and/or gaming. It’s weird bc when breaking the piggy bank I’ve found I’ve received double the chips, an then after playing they go missing. The customer service has been little to no help addressing the matter. Basically just saying it’s not them, it’s me, despite all of the same complaints from other gamers. It’s been so frustrating that I have set up a camera to record the chips I receive and then the loss the next time I purchase my piggy bank. The most annoying thing is that I’m paying for this to happen. I’ve considered not playing and I’ve shared my complaints with other players and on other forums.

Like all poker games without real money, the biggest problem is other players. Poker is a skill based game, but it seems like every table has at least one guy that wants to make it pure luck. I’d love to see some way to avoid bad players who go all-in over and over again with nothing. Blocking players would be ok, but hear me out. I’m thinking some kind of player review system, and when a player’s review scores drop too low they fall into an idiot’s bracket where they can only play each other. Update: we’ve got to talk about the x2 xp tokens. I have over 400 of them, and I use one literally every time I need one. The game gives them away about 400% more than it should, they’ve become worthless. Maybe an exchange program? Update: the game NEEDS to address the kamikaze player problem. They ruin the game for everyone else. Slowly lowering my review score until this is addressed.

I have always had an up and down time with this game but lately (I would say the last few months) something has changed. If you look at recent reviews for this yea, you can see how overwhelmingly negative they are. I applaud their data scientists because they know (and can tell you) everything you do in the game and have clearly worked to help engineer game play towards paying. While this has always happened to some extent, I have noticed that game play is strongly steering towards trying to spend money, not just with new features like GOP club, the way challenges are geared towards people with more coin, but also in the way slots and table hands make you lose money worse than ever before. I have been close to quitting many times and recently have already been cutting back game play because it’s just not as fun anymore. Where as before I would recommend the game with open eyes, now I wouldn’t. I will keep playing a little longer to see if they make changes but for now it’s with strong doubt.

This game is absolutely manipulative and rigged in multiple ways. The slots have been adjusted to almost never pay when they used to pay constantly. The black jack also appears to move back and forth from too easy to win tons of money to suddenly locking and you wont win ever no matter what. When the game is in give mode you get poker hands that are not mathematically possible and cant lose for hours. This is followed by hours or days where you never win no matter what. So if their “RNG” randomness includes 4 flushes, followed by 3 straights in row followed by a bunch of 3 of a kinds, no other player getting a chance in a high level tournament in row.... ok whatever. There is no explanation for the types of silly hands this game generates. It also will give one person or the entire table the same cards over and over again. Like you get an A6 for every hand 5 times in row. How is that random? This is an extremely addictive and manipulative pay to play. They are in Amsterdam to avoid taxes and regulation on the huge profits from playing with your head. Do not buy money. They will lock the game so you lose until you get desperate and buy a “few” chips just to have a chance to win it back. They then remove cheap options and raise the price until you feel pressured by your team to continue to compete for points and dumb rewards. You were warned. Stay away.

Edit: Note in their response how they only address my comment on the RNG. They know the rest is an issue and it's pay-to-play now and they don't care. Don't know how their rating is so high - check the feedback on the posts on their FB page for the real story. Been using this for a couple months. Was pretty decent though they have had an ongoing issue with spins/chests not working, and their customer service does nothing to rectify. They recently made a feature change making it much harder to earn chips in their challenges, making the spins even more important (unless you pay to play), but still haven't addressed the bug. That change also has resulted in many more players who play bingo and go all in at the start. That's fine heads up, but your odds of winning with the better hand are seriously compromised, and you end up having to take people on short-stacked all the time. Also their Random Number Generator (or implementation thereof) is a joke. It's set up the same for each player so there is a high likelihood of you having the same cards as someone else or if you're playing multiple tables, having the same hand in multiple tables.

Updated: After my review I had another incident where a video ad started at the same time as my tournament and covered the screen for the first two hands, forcing me out of the game. That is beyond unacceptable. (Also, the developer’s response, as predicted, is their stock lie. I am absolutely not saying game play is rigged because I don’t have enough data. All of the spins, however, are clearly rigged. They say random but you never win the higher amounts.) Original review: The game play is fun and some of the games/missions add a new dimension. Just be warned, the ads, which are already over the top, become completely intrusive and video ads start interrupting the game play unless you spend money. Also, the spins for various things (e.g. the hourly free spin and the Spin & Play) are completely rigged. They have responded to other reviews with claims it is not, but it is the most obvious aspect of the game and it makes it hard to trust the legitimacy of the rest of the game play. The fact that they even try to respond when it is so readily apparent suggests they are not competent programmers or they are frauds. Either way it’s bad.

I had no problem until I bought a chip package. I don’t know why I did it because I feel like games target people that spend money on them. It seemed like every single game after that was rigged. I get I won’t win every hand with the best hand, but it got ridiculous. Players calling raises with trash, just like every other poker game, then calling bets on the flop with no pair or draw, but they get runner runner to win so often. I was losing continuously. I lost every single chip. What really rubbed me the wrong way was after I lost at one point they had a thing pop up that said “REVENGE!!! Get back the chips you lost.” They were trying to play off my emotions and get me to buy more chips. That is insanely crooked. But that is what a lot of people do. They get mad, then buy more chips to win them back from the crappy players they lost them to. I honestly think it is rigged. I lost so much so fast. It was like they knew what cards were coming. I would not recommend this game to anyone. I am extremely aggravated.

If you’re looking for a poker app with sone of the best players from around the world joining the table.. And, if you’re like me, willing to spend a few dollars for chips (even if it’s just okay money) because you truly enjoy the game of poker when it’s played correctly.. then you do NOT want to download this app. Not only is it blatantly and obviously rigged but there’s no grinding it out to reach a more prestigious sly ranked level stakes. There’s constantly donks and bingo players at every level.. and again, the bad bears and computerized boards will make the best hole cards look like a 7-2 off suite. Even if you’re fortunate enough to flop the nuts, somehow there is always someone retaining and catching a winning hand with the turn and the river. I’ve spent a few bucks hoping that maybe I was simply unlucky but the odds of what I’ve seen happen (tone and time again) have literally made me sick. Do not waste your money time or even curiosity on this crap.
