    Anyone know of a good poker game that's FREE that I can download? I've tried downloading two different ones already and they were crap. Any ideas?

    This is your best bet. Just go to any online poker site, and play with "fake money". It's more exciting because you're playing against real people.


    I have found that freeware poker (that you download) doesn't tend to be very good.

    Alright thanks guys. I'm trying to stay away from the online stuff since our school forbids game sites during school hours and limits usage of net games after school hours. I went to sourceforge.net and found one. And did I mention that they even block Poker on facebook. It's crazy here.
