Summary: Dealer Wins No Matter What
Comment: In this blackjack game, the dealer consistently beats the odds. I don't mean sometimes, but 90% of the time. To learn and actually play the game, one has to be able to count on cetain outcomes a certain percentage of the time. This is not programmed to do that. Perhaps it was made by someone who wants all of us to stay away from casinos! Believe the computer chart of the odds (available on-line and in books). While it leaves the casino about a 1/2% edge in a multi-deack game, it is only that. Not with this game, though.

Summary: terrible! save your money
Comment: O.k., I realize that gambling in a casino is usually a losing proposition. The casino has the edge, and though you may win from time to time (and occassionaly hit it big) the casino, over time will always win.
Well, with this game it's almost the exact opposite, the casino almost always wins - every hand.
Take blackjack for instance, the dealer has a five as the up card? You can just about guarantee that their hole card is a 4, 5 or 6 - and they hit and get a 10 for 19, 20 or 21 - that will happen 90% of the time.
Also, it seems to be inconsistent with the rules it uses. Sometimes you can split tens, sometimes you can't. Sometimes you can double down, other times you can't. It's hard to figure out and a bit maddening to be fair.
I got bored playing this rather quickly - I got tired of playing 21 because the dealer is always on a "lucky" streak. I got tired of playing poker because the best you can get is a pair - though your opponents always seem to get 2 pair or a straight.
Overall, I'd have to say it's a terrible game and a waste of money.
I'd rather go waste my money at a casino than to buy this game again!

Summary: Many games are wrong.
Comment: Do not buy this game if you want to learn craps and/or blackjack. Within 1 hour of playing, I experienced 4-5 incorrect payoffs at craps (even with the patch installed from phantom's website). Furthermore, when playing blackjack, it would allow me to split a ten and a jack, something most casinos won't let you do. Until they get the games right, I'd stay away.

Summary: Bad, poor, dont buy !
Comment: Freezes up every few games. Takes too long to switch between games. Is not very fast and soon became boring. Please buy another game. You will be glad you did.I owned this game for less than ten hours and threw it away.Buy something else.
Customer Rating:
Summary: ugly software
Comment: The software has to load every time you change a game. It is so slow even with the cd in. You can not run the game by itself. The play is unrealistic and hard to understand what to do when the game screen is on your computer. We bought it for a gift. We are glad we tried it before we gave it. We are not giving it. We are now searching for another game. If i had a choice to give no stars i would.
