PokerTek Heads-Up Challenge Game
 

Was at a bar on vacation that had For some reason, the game was on demo or something when we were there. It was playing for free. The waitress came by and said, "Oh, it's finally working. It's been in here for 2 months and no one has been able to get it to work. :confused: Anyway, my wife and I played it for a couple of hours one night. The game is pretty damn cool. The link shows all of the features of the game but it is about as real as it gets when playing heads up against a real opponent. You could easily host a 8 person tourney with it for real cash. It also had a monitor hooked up with a TV style presentation above the table for the bar to see, complete with %s and what not. This would be sweet to have in the home.

They had these at the WSOP this summer, but you had to pay to play them. And I assumed it wouldn't be cool to drop down a couple hundo on the table and see who stepped up to play, so I didn't bother.

They did look cool though.

The pic makes it looks like u sit right across from some1 and play them heads up, except with machines?

is that all it is?

Yeah, JD.

It's a bar game. Probably the same appeal as shoving money into Golden Tee. It's the same technology pokertek uses in the actualy electronic poker tables they make for live gambling. It'd be easy to get 8 dudes together and head to a bar for a tourney. The "TV" style of presentation would make it fun to get drunk and do that. Think of the money it costs to play the game as the juice.

Not sure if it's still free, TP, but you can play it close to your house. I was visiting my mom when we played it. Siggy's All-American Bar on I95 and Malabar Road.

Pretty cool I guess, BuckHunter games are still the best arcade bar games ever as far as I'm concerned.

Loser buys shots or a pitcher and by the end of the night u dn wtf ur shooting at. Couple weeks ago after a cardinals game we went and played and I used the gun to fake shoot some random dude in the face that apparently he didn't like and resulted in a few knocked over bar tables and a banning from Hot Shots. :cheers:

see ticker PTEK...bottoming at 0.68 and it's going to explode...just wish I had enough $ to open an account:mad:

anyone know of some quality online brokerages' that have a low minimun deposit. check that- my lazy ass will do the research

And you didn't call.

You bastard.

PTEK UP 2% MONDAY AND 11% TODAY!!! tHIS IS THE SECOND TIME OUT OF TWO TRIES THAT I CALLED A STOCK TO BOOM AND IT DID

I'm buying $500 worth of shares tomorrow if everything goes as planned.

No, deposit that money it's a better investment.

I can't tell if you are serious or not:confused:

100% serious stock market can crash, no way you can fail at poker.

This is the same stock that was trading at like $10 a year or two ago, right?

LOL... GL with that.

Not to mention the full Poker Pro tables are failing and they are being pulled from casinos.

and not to mention the two days u talked about the stock jumping 2 and 11% the whole market pretty much did the same thing

see my signature below

WOW! A TP.com first. ORANGE Rep!!!

Congratulations. Should I just ban you now?

A 50 song from 1999? (you probably didnt hear it till it was rerelased in 03 but...) wow thats new!

Oh and your signature is so much more thought-provoking

Except that his signature is a simple, pithy fact about the reality of poker, and yours is the whine of a loser.

The jdiana game has been fun: Years of nonsense with - let me count them, let's see, carry the one, ah yes - 0 contributions to the forum. But, alas, all annoying things must come to an end and so now has the jdiana86 saga.

I mean, he's got orange rep now - I can't really think of anything else to look forward to, so I've just give him a one year ban.

People can change. Maybe he'll come back a new man. Or maybe he'll still be a douche and I'll just permaban him after his first post. Either way, goodbye for at least a year.

But....but....what if there's PURPLE???? :D

Oh man! I said I was gonna ejaculate if he got a 6th bar! And what do you know... :D
