★★★★★ "Ads-Ads++more ads. These guys actually posted a favorable rating for themselves using my ID! If you paid to stop the ads and buy a lot of coins, you can have a little bit of fun with this thing, but it cost too much. It’s not worth it." - AndyLasVegas1

Such a rip off
I really liked this game at first. Then the table buy-ins just kept getting larger and larger, to play in the exact same table. 50,000 table all of a sudden is now 100,000 table, 150k then 300k. Ridiculous, a total money grab. I’m out, no more.
Coins disappear
Over this game, coins disappear if you don’t watch the ads or never purchase anything. Delete
Ads-Ads++more ads
These guys actually posted a favorable rating for themselves using my ID! If you paid to stop the ads and buy a lot of coins, you can have a little bit of fun with this thing, but it cost too much. It’s not worth it.
ADS ADS ADS

Don’t bother
Waste of time and energy. Not playing against real people. Scoring is awful. Games end in a few moves or less. Their “rake” (take) is insanely high.
Dangerous, Frankly, Do Not Download This Game

Fixed
You lose a lot after buying coins. Happens all the time. They’ve gotten my last penny. Never again. Don’t waste your time or money.
Not worth the time
You will lose far more coins than win, and they will send you bonuses if you have notifications turned on but when you click on it you won’t actually receive the bonus. The only real way you can play more than 1-3 games a day is if you are spending money on the game.
Money grab
Fun game but will take any coins you buy immediately by giving you losing hands until all of your coins are gone. Also, if you lose x2 you will lose x2 coins, if you play someone else and win x2, you don’t win x2 coins. Rigged!
Worst ever..
Ripping money off whoever plays 🤬
Unexplained loss of coins
I noticed recently that I lost coins without playing any games. I purchased some, the balance updated, and when I went back to the home page, the amount had been reduced without my playing any games. I did it again to see if it was a fluke…and it happened again. This time, I took screenshots. I’ve yet to receive an explanation from support or get my coins back.

Bad bad bad
Ads every single game
Ridiculous amount of ads, and the only remedy is $5. Gay
Ads Ads Ads
I do not mind ads, in general, but these pop up everywhere all the time. So often in fact that they delay games and cause matches to end prematurely. It’s a gin rummy game so not unique enough to justify the frustration.
They control the cards!
Whatever you do people DO NOT spend any money on this game. It is fixed!!! They control what cards you get. Sure they let you win every once in a while, but they keep you at a lhevel so that you will keep buying their tokens. They are nothing more than thieves. They tell you there no bots in the game which is a boldfaced LIE!! The developers of this game are cheating out of your money whenever you purchase their tokens. They say you are playing other people which maybe true sometimes, most people I don’t know when they lose. The verbal expressions prove they are bots. I know they will send me a text telling how good other people play and bad I play. There is very little skill playing rummy. So if you are paying money for tokens you are just throwing money away.
Money Grab
Even after paying for no ads, I cannot play unless I buy credits. Do NOT recommend.
Rigged for sure
I had 800,000 coins it lasted a week.I went 2 wins and about 40 loses that impossible. It’s so fake it makes one sick
DELETE THIS APP I HAVE BE WARE
Delete this game don’t play this game. They flagged your profile so you can lose money what they want you to do is purchase purchase extra money so you can play the Joker around. Don’t purchase coins. Don’t play this game. Delete the game they also give you the same card so you’ll never win the card jackpot so just delete this game and don’t buy into it. It flagged your profile so you can lose games so you can purchase coin. I’ve gone on Facebook and all social media platforms to tell people not to play this game. It if they have it.
Sh t
Do not try! I tried. After every hand you get an add. Your opponent will quit without finishing the game. To finish games you have to PURCHASE the No Adds option. EXTORTION
Chargeback those cards!
This is a clear scam, charge back with your cc company and don’t let these thieves take anything from you!
No fun
Hard to win, hard to get jokers. Bad cards dealt constantly. A total waste of $, don’t purchase!
Fun game
Fun game! Takes up a lot of time. But it’s more like gambling. It’s very addictive and you have to keep buying coins to play. It’s slowly getting more and more expensive the higher level you get. It’s not just a game but a money grab eventually you will realize the game targets you once you buy your first package. Download with caution.
Bots, not actual multiplayer
The timing is the same for every move, the emojis come too quickly after a hand, and the ai seems to perfectly know what you’re knocking with every time..
Fun but way to many ads …
I played 2 games got hit with an ad like 3-4 times , not a little 15 second one , a whole minute long ad every time . Relax a bit
Ads after every round
I
Ads after every round ensure that you can never rematch a player.
