  1. BICYCLE CASINO IS LIVE ENABLED!!!!!!!!! Did you hear that?? This is why this game is so cool. When you play the AI, it's pretty average, because you can't really bluff against them, but when you get a poor sucker like me at the same table on Xbox Live, that's when it gets interesting.
  2. For fans of poker or gambling games this one is great to buy. For those who are not huge fans of sitting around and playing a slower pace game that requires concentration, you may want to pass on this one.
  3. By charging above the bargain price-point, this game should've done more.

    I found myself pretty disappointed with this purchase. The lack of offline multiplayer and minute fun factor really steered this game from any characteristic of a satisfying purchase.

    Can't disagree with the flaws pointed out below, but it has one major feature which the Hoyle games for PC still lack, which is the option to play no-limit poker. This in itself makes the game worth my money. Expand

    I am with the guy below me, this could have been a lot better... The gameplay is very weak, but it does deliver a lot of games.

    You'd think it would be tough to mess up a casino game... I mean there's not a lot beyond the interface and rules to think about. Well bicycle pretty much does it. The graphics are terrible, and interface is sometimes barely readable. For example, while playing texas hold 'em, it is tough to distinguish 6s from 8s because the cards are so small and the textures so blurry. On the positive side, there's a good number of fun games here, and they did get the rules all correct. Plus it's online if you're into that. Really though, I don't think a lot of planning or thought went into this title. Expand
