Players place your bets and get your poker face ready for Hands-On's latest mobile release World Poker Tour: Texas Hold' Em!. Based on the popular World Poker Tour series, this application brings poker to life for players in fresh, new and exiting ways that are sure to impress players and fans alike.
This latest version makes playing poker on the iPhone a breeze with folding cards as easy as a quick finger flick across the screen and to place bets players need only to drag their finger along the betting wheel to set the amount. This is a huge improvement from previous games where players had to type in their bet size or use a fiddly slider feature which often proved to be frustrating and wasted a lot of time.
Another big bonus with this edition is the web-to-wireless multi-player aspect in which players have the ability to play against hundreds of thousands of real world players via mobile or the Web. Players also have the ability to listen to their own iTunes library in the background during game play.
The improved in-game user interface delivers a fresh look with easy to use menus, crisp visuals and detailed player art thus giving a much more realistic experience. There is also video and audio commentary by the man himself, Mike Sexton to add to its authenticity.
World Poker Tour: Texas Hold' Em! is one of the most realistic poker experiences available to date on the iPhone and is perfect for anyone wanting an authentic poker experience whilst on the go.
