Rigged
October 13, 2021

There is no way that you should be able to play 4 straight games of pinochle and only get 9 aces. That happened to me last night. I had the same partner for all for games and I kept track of aces. We as a team had a total of 21 aces. And euchre is basically the same way. No team should be able to get 4 lone hands in one game and that did not happen just once tonight but twice.

CHEATING
October 11, 2021

SINCE PLAYOK WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT HOW THEIR EMPLOYEES CHEAT ON PLAYOK HEARTS MY LAWYERS HAVE SENT PAPERS TO THEM SO I CAN SUE THEM FOR FRAUD STRESS AND CHEATING. I AM ALSO SUING ALL ADVERTISERS ON PLAYOK HEARTS AS WELL.

MY NAME IS LOSTCAUSE BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE CHEATING. IT ISN'T A FAIR GAME ALL YOUR EMPLOYEES DO IS BASH ME WITH THE QUEEN WITH THEIR BOTS.

I KNOW YOU CONTROL ALL 3 BOTS. I KNOW YOU CAN SEE MY CARDS B4 I PLAY THEM. I KNOW YOU CAN SWITCH CARDS. I KNOW YOU CAN PLAY THE SAME CARD TWICE. I KNOW YOU CAN CHANGE THE SCORES AND TIMES. I KNOW YOU CAN TAKE AWAY TIME FROM ME AND SLOW YOUR TIMES DOWN. A PERSON CAN DIE OVER THIS MESS AND YOU DONT CARE. I KNOW THIS IS A FREE SITE, BUT THE BASHING IS TO UNBEARABLE. IT IS TIME SOMEBODY DOES SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

I SHUT DOWN PHONEY POGO LAND GAMES. I WILL SHUT THIS SITE DOWN. I WILL BE SUING FACEBOOK ALSO BECAUSE THEY HAVE THEIR NAME ALL OVER THIS MESS.

OH I KNOW FOREIGN FREAKS RUN THIS CRAP.

BS game site
August 2, 2021

All server based rolls... just a scam. Not like playing the real backgammon... it's a joke! I am a seasoned player and when I play against 1800+ players they always win using manipulative dice... it's so obvious! Sad

Random will get you

The supposed random algorithm will roll multiples of the same number more often than would occur in an actual board game.

No reason to try
July 6, 2021

Play ok stacks the deck in order to keep players coming back to its site. The worst possible players are handed wins. The site sets the ratings, not the skills of the players.

Pinocle
April 20, 2021

A Friend had referred me to this Site. I don't like the fact that when your Partner decides to leave the game, the other person pays the price for it to. Also, I have seen people with as high as a 32% Abandonment, why can't they get a Penalty for that? Also, those that do have a high % of abandonment, they have other Accts? That isn't fair! I come on to relieve stress, not to increase it!

Verbal vulgar abuse
March 15, 2021

It is very bad when your p tosses the game so when you question your p, (bidenwonhaha) comes back calling me a dic licker and telling me to go $#*! myself so I reported it to playokay. But of coarse everybody knows that the site willl do nothing about it since they act just like those on the site. His two friends jumped me also calling me names and their names is youdirtyh0re and ittibity. Sad when you are 100% disabled and they slammed me for that so play. Okay needs to be shut down since they support this kind of hatred towards others.
Would not let me not mark a star but I had no choice so they got 1 star since the internet likes people and sites that are very verbally vulgar and abusive.

After 10-15 games played today, everyone of my opponents end up with 2 to 4 times more doubles than I. And opponents are able to get out 3/3 with only one spot left, while I went 4/10 with 3 spots open, to try to come back in play. I mean I have played thousands of backgammon game in real life, where miracles happen now and then, not every game like on this website. But in this online cheating website, every game you will find suck outs and miracle dice rolls coming out 4-5 times per game. It's beyond beating the odds and beyond any form of cheating I have ever witnessed.

Total hoax: backgammon at its most rigged
February 6, 2021

You win the 10 first games or so and continue playing, then your luck turns completly and the most surrealistic bad luck happens. Either you lose because opponent gets ALL the right rolls, or you think you'll win, but you cannot roll, let's say 6/2. What do you get? 6/2. Doesn't matter, as long as opponent doesn't roll 4/3. What does he get? You know it.

Most rigged piece of sh*** i've ever played, to avoid at all cost.

Basic but functional site for playing Go
January 22, 2021

The interface is basic but functional for playing Go, which is the only game I play on this site. A fair number of Go players use this site a few quite strong some even from Korea, where Go is immensely popular. Other sites for Go such as Tygem Baduk are far more sophisticated and are used by professional Go players.

Reading some of the other reviews here of this site Play OK, I have never encountered rudeness from opponents playing Go on this site so I cannot comment on moderation of the site as it has never been necessary for me.

Spades programming is poor as described. Spoilt the site for me once i realised the main one. Where the game heavily favours the team which has the person with the lowest win % at tbl. You basically guaranteed to win 90% of the time once your partner or yourself has the lowest win % at the tbl. Only way to lose is if your p has the lowest win % because he is dumb and even then still hard to lose. Only other way to lose is when you are playing against two cheats,,, and they refuse to fix the programming fix it. Its so funny to see the game help them with deals and distribution of cards and the more the team with the lowest win% player goes behind the more ridiculous the help they will get. So i suggest if you want to win easily just make sure yourself or your p has the lowest win % at the tbl. Killed the game for me when i found that flaw. There are others such as if a high rater sits with low rater and their ratings spread is high... they will get the deals just as in the case above. They also need to add a little extra hinderance for cheats by forcing an email signup. Way too easy to create fake accounts and cheat when you dont even have to create/verify with an email address

Biased site for paying players
December 9, 2020

The games program benefits the most addicted players, even those who pay or sponsor the site.
You can play a game very well but will find players in these conditions and will lose against them.

The game is designed for the select, elite few to take victory most of the time because of arranged dealt hand going in favor of the cheaters. On any given game the cards dealt highly favor the cheater elites taking at least 7 of the tricks, most times 8 or 9 tricks. Cards dealt highly favor cheaters with 1 card suit whereby allowing cheaters play their spades and leave the opponents with a little opportunity to make their bid. What gets me is the original designers of the website went through the pains of delivering an excellent format of the game of spades, all to be nullified with the fact that the games are rigged, cheaters fill the tables by the 1000nds. What a terrrible waste.
