Practically everyone has played it online, or with friends, and most likely for money. Now Vodafone is taking the game Mobile, literally. The online World Series of Poker, for the PSP, comes the closest to accomplishing the same thing, though vodafone is sure to have a much larger online community. Starting immediately Texas hold ‘em poker can be played after downloading it from among the online multiplayer games by XMO technology.
Customers of the mobile phone service provider must select the “Classic & Casino” category from the Vodafone live!-Portal in order to load the game onto the mobile. After ten minutes you will have to decide whether to keep playing – if yes, then it will set you back £4 monthly for the full version. Customers without a data flat-rate will additionally be charged £0.14 per 10 KB for the portal access. With Vodafone’s mobile poker one choose between multiple tables, that are sorted by limits, blind sizes, and maximum players. Anyone who feels capable enough can even take part in large tournaments.
