You are the only one.

Well, maybe not but I do not play there.

Good luck.

I played on facebook for a while, but in the lower levels it is too frustrating. I just stick to UB now, which is equally frustrating but smoother gameplay.

why would you bother playing on facebook when you can play online for free just the same?

I had no idea that there was even any poker available on FB?? What's the scoop? And, like someone has already stated, why play there instead of on a regular poker site?

its only when you get to the higher blinds where sometimes you play against proper poker players
otherwise, you get people just going all in every hand which ruins the game.

hey the facebook poker is not very good the game play is very poor and also if u don't have many chips it is all in every hand

mhm. that's why i said at the higher limits there are good players. saying it will not help your game at all is not true. you can practice pickinig up patterns in players and playing accordingly.

Facebook period is no place to learn. Even if you find an experienced player hes only experienced in knowing what hands beat what.

It may be fun, and probably a good place to play with some of your friends if you wanted. But for real money and a learning experience, I suggest elsewhere.

Facebook poker LMAO......This is another forum joke right? Ok serioully the few friends I have that play on facebook poker, DON'T play poker on real sites. I have tried to get them to cross over but they wont. I believe it is just a social thing among facebookers.

if your just starting out in poker its fine to play for play money. if not your just wasting your time. why not look for a freeroll where you can at least win something, and the play is somewhat real.

Like just about everyone said, the play is UNBELIEVABLY bad. Your good hands lose because everybody plays the hand and somebody hits something decent most of the time. If you raise, everybody plays and somebody hits. :) I played there yesterday and had some nitwit double me up as I flopped a high straight. He called me all the way down and turned over absolutely nothing. Not a pair, not a draw, not even a decent card. Complete trash that had zero chance of winning unless...well, unless nothing.

I won't say don't do it. It can be entertaining, but it's not poker. You're basically flipping coins with a bunch of random people.

what's interesting about facebook poker is that if you can accumulate a massive bankroll of the fake chips you can sell them to people for real money. My buddy just sold 150 mil in chips for $750.00....not a bad deal.
