Pros and cons of Heads Up: Hold'em (Free Poker) app for iPhone and iPad

Heads Up: Hold'em (Free Poker) app good for

Pretty good ap! Opponent is just challenging enough to keep you hooked (but then Im no poker expert so thats really a subjective observation). It would be nice to have more than 25 chips per game but the "bonus" games with 100 are a nice touch. Overall worth the download....I mean what the hell, its free!
Fine app. Well designed. Affords good practice. Very worthwhile
Great game, but the AI folds too often. You bet, he bails! 25 chips is not enough, but keeps you playing game after game.
Great heads up game, spend the .99cents and upgrade to 1000 chips, or get the 1.99 version.
This app is great! Quality graphics, decent AI, and seamless UI. Would be a 5 star rating but since my wife and I purchased the the paid version the Bluetooth no longer connects. May not be related but takes away some of the fun. Otherwise, highly recommended.
Simple to use. Fun to play with friends through BlueTooth. Challenging enough for newbies to poker. Hey, its free!

Some bad moments

Best poker app for looks but 98%(I counted) of the time when I bet the ai folds so its not too fun anymore Still doesnt work after update
Keeps crashing. Especially when someone goes all in in 2 player mode Occasionally gives the wrong result. Doesnt account for the chips correctly either when your playing 2 player. Would really like it if they could fix it. One of the best interface from all the poker games
The latest update crashes down at start on Ipod Touch 3. Can you fix it, please?
The AI going all in every other round gets annoying fast. Also you cant bet at all. As soon as you bet, the AI almost always folds instantly...
Previous reviews are useful... Question: when it comes down to the river and the opponent calls, arent they supposed to show their hand?? Thats the only thing that really bothers me--when I win and they DIDNT fold, how come it doesnt show what they had? This why Im deleting this app.
Like a lot of other reviews here. The AI is just not realistic. It gets frustrating when it calls your all in with crap and wins way more than it should. Also, if you flop a nut hand the AI will check it down and fold to any bet. It knows. I would be nice if you could show your cards to the AI when it folds to show bluffs and such like it does to you. Need to re write the code so more realistic!!!
