Ongame Network showcased latest version of fully integrated mobile poker solution at ICEi.

Gibraltar, 29 January 2007 - Ongame Network Ltd, a subdivision of the bwin Group and a leading provider of online gaming platforms, showcased the latest version of their online poker mobile software application during the International Casino Exhibition at Earl’s Court in London last week. The new version is the first ever which truly takes advantage of the accessibility of mobile devices to create a refreshing, encompassing and action-packed mobile poker experience focused on one-on-one play.

“When we first managed to overcome restrictions in display size and processing capacity and successfully ported the state-of-the art graphics of our Windows software into more than forty popular mobile devices, we really felt we achieved something,” says spokesperson Tomer Katz.

“But now we’ve taken it one step further by introducing a new user interface specifically designed for the heads-up market segment for which we believe our portable poker solution is perfectly suited. It’s fast, it’s easy and it only requires a few minutes of game time to enjoy.”

The new graphical interface simplifies the user heads-up experience by putting the player face-to-face with his opponent and removing unnecessary controls and graphical elements.

In the exhibition hall at Earl’s Court visitors could demo the application by playing either against another mobile poker player or, by seamlessly interacting with the companies Windows and Java poker software, against anyone of the more than thirty thousand concurrent players actively engaged in cash games and tournaments inside the Ongame Network e-gaming environment around the clock.

With more than twenty five of the online gaming industry’s most trusted brands in their partner portfolio, Ongame Network is aiming to bring real money mobile poker to the hands of millions of European players longing to enjoy their favourite game on the fly during 2008.
