Its a gambling game type that is unbeatable.

If you want a different take on the game and dont mknd being guaranteed to lose money long-run, might be a game for you.

I do not like power up poker with real money. Waaaay to much or a chance to lose. I do like playing this with play money though especially if I’m frustrated and just wanna go nuts to get rid of some tilt lol

OP do not play these new variants of NLH they are just the casino's way to take your money.It is negative EV so you cannot make any money.....so why play??? you win by not playing.

Personally I think power up poker is stupid. I played it, not with real money of course.

I do not like this new game format, because it loses the essence of true texan holdem, I think that innovative poker is good but not in this way .. it is not acceptable in my person, but there are those who like it ..

I played a couple of times and I did not really like this kind of poker game, better I'll continue to play normal Hold'em and Omaha!

I have no idea to play power up,I tryied when it was free and never learned correctly,but now it´s not free anymore, the buy in is 1$ and I find it very difficult to play.No more new attempts to learn it.

I think that very few people will play this format of poker because poker and so do not just play and play with additional cards, a riveting venture of poker players and in my opinion is doomed to failure.

in my opinion, is another game to get the money faster ... far from them !! play in a simple tournament or one Sit&Go better!! :p

It is an interesting twist to NL but the rake is high.

Power up poker takes a different skill sets, i suggest you dont play it if your skills are based on holdem. If you started from Hearthstone or Magic , you do have an edge for this poker variant.

Its -EV if your a straight poker player and +EV if you started from strategy games like DOTA and card games like Hearthstone or Magic

if you are in tilt, you can take a break for a couple of minutes without leaving the poker lobby, but seriously this game can not be perceived
