Just a site of cheaters...mostly Polish who haven't a clue how to play. If you contact admin...they are rude & totally oblivious. Also never seen so many 1 bidders in my life. In real spades a 1 bid is an auto loss.
I have played pinochle for nigh onto 50 years and not once in that amount of time have I ever seen a game where one team got 90% of the aces until the one I just played. Neither my partner or I had aces around once during the game. And, on top of that we only had 2 hands with 20 or greater meld. No one can tell me that the site does not determine which team will win. I actually think the two opponents were bots because they never sent on message of any kind during the play even though both my partner and I asked simple get acquainted type messages.
Some players get a series of consecutive doubles every game when they are about to lose the game in a blunt way
I got banned from using any of the items on PlayOk, like laughing, crying, getting mad, etc. I said something to one if the players and without any warning at all they stopped me using and if these items. I would have thought they would issue a warning to me if I continued, I would lose these privileges. But no, they took them away from me. Since they hold all of the cards, what can I do. I will be 80 in a few months and this was one of my enjoyments. I asked them why not a warning and was told that's the way it is. Well maybe karma will rear its ugly neck on them. We are not living in communist Russia! Probably a bunch of young people who think they will
Never get old. They wouldn't even listen to any reasoning. I think one of my grandkids used my account and caused the problem, but they wouldn't hear of that even.
Same players play under different name in a effort to be able to cheat. Playing under both players so they will be able to know what cards players have.
I got blocked for cheating when I did not cheat. A random person online I played with cheated. I thought we were playing against new players because we kept winning. I tried to explain myself and ask Play Ok to examine my account for any signs of cheating. They were immediately rude. I have had losses outside of playing one night with a person online who was cheating and I didn't know. I'm an older woman and don't know much about electronics. Horrible customer service. I guess if someone cheats, all around them get blocked too. Very sad.
Backgammon game is completely insane. The way the dice are manipultated by the software to force a wanted outcome is nothing short of insulting to basic human intelligence. There´s nothing fun about playing here, unless you are antisocial or don´t know how to actually play the game and want to pretend. Their goal is to hook you in by giving crazy rewarding miracle rolls. Stay away! This is not harmless or safe, eventhough no money is involved
My ISP has been blocked for the reasons that I sent playok both email of screen shot and chat log regarding a poor behavior member.
1 He bid 13 on spades game.
2 He sent me genital symbol and said "send this to your daughter", then "send this to your sister".
3 He stalked me. He kept coming back by his other name. You cannot block them all.genital symbol.
4 He was right because he laughed at me when I said I reported this to playok.
There have been many of them on this website. You would be stalked, harrassed and bullied by them. Cheating or bidding 13 on spades are your punishment and Playok has done nothing to that. You will be blocked when you reported them. I am disappointed as I thought they would be and should have been morally better to own such a website.for public use. Somehow, this becomes worsen than Yahoo games in the past.
play.ok backgammon game is a fraud game. Dice are clearly fraudulent and out of statistical possibility. Very usual favoring romanian and polish players.
The hands are pre-planned and depending on which table you sit at you are either highly favored to win or lose.
Rigged as help to let the worse player have chances to win. Terrible! Algorithms to help the bad players. See through. Predictable.
This is a good site to play so many different games and the people you play with are friendly and courteous
Totally fake dice rolls on backgammon. One day you cant lose, even if you try, next day you cant lose and had Romanian scum regularly get 10 doubles in a row to help $#*!s win. Typical low IQ Polish and east European cheating scum. Wipe these cockroaches out, Russia
I can't give them half a STAR because that's all I would give them only because they are some bastards who support discrimination and racism, I'm blocked because I commented, I'm offended AND I don't have the right to reply
Results in gin are sometimes vaguely realistic, but sometimes the opponent picks up your discard to gin, but that card doesn't appear anywhere in his/her hand or in the discards. Where does it go? There are hugh swings in your results, from winning many games in a row to losing many games in a row.
Hundreds of players with the same name format. Such as fvn5876g, bmn3443g, fgb5843g, 3 letters (no vowells), 3 or 4 numbers then a g. I do mean hundreds. Are these bots, a group, cheats? Who are these people
Random die rolls are still not happening. I'm almost thinking that if you write a critical review here they will change how your profile make your die rolls less favorable. This is all about Backgammon. No updates to the interface in the last year. When you are on the bar and trying to come down your die rolls are not visible as they are benight the 'Roll Again" message. Could be so much better if they cared.
There is no way the developers have spend any time in the last 20 years updating their site. Their random generator doesn't do the job. There is no way to contact them to see if they have anything in mind to make improvements. Go else where. You'll be disapointed
I am an experienced Backgammon player having played over 52 years in real life on real boards. I am a good player that has won at about at 54-55% clip for those 50 plus years. I am rated 2100 on msn games and are currently 850 games over.500 On play ok i am rated only 1830 and are always 75 to 80 games under.500? This is statistically impossible over 5000 games that i have played on this site. I CONTINUALLY LOSE to non real odds dice rolls? Not one roll but sequenced together 3/4 or even 5 rolls in arow. I lose to clueless players who take horrible doubling cubes and make a lot of horrible low odds moves, but they still win only on this site? Play OK sequences their rolls to produce non real dramatic results including 2 or even 3 times the amount of doubles rolled always while peeling off than normal. They also statistically program their algorithm's to produce long shot rolls to occur at the time to alter normal statistical results. This site is NOT FOR SERIOUS BG PLAYERS to play a real statistical odds game as they do NOT OCCUR on this site. It is like watching a PLAY OK PROGRAMMED MOVIE over and over again. Go to other sites if you want real odds BG because it isnt on Play OK?
Avoid backgammon on this "platform", rigged AF.
Graphs, sounds are awful moreover.
It is free, good, because it would be pure scam if you had to pay.
