I agree - hugely impressive.

No idea, they were at a conference in Nice about two months ago where they showed their product and it had still some bugs in it (camera angles doing dodgy things etc) but it seemed very complete besides that someone told me. I registered for the beta, hope to test it out.

I have to say that I don't know if it will be fun to constantly play it in such a mode, might be fun for a while only. I used to play high level competition quake 2 and 3 online for quite a while and when you play something a lot you want to get rid of all extra features and break it down until you are left with the core.

And the core is what all other poker rooms offer ;-)

I have to say that I prefer the absolute minimum of graphics when I play. Just the cards, players names, bets, and pot values will do me fine.

Has to be TruePoker - Absolutely the most fun you can have with your clothes on!

About 20 animated characters to chose from - all with their own mannerisms and comic phrases. Even the dealer talks to you!
I just love it!

The only poker software I've managed to get running on my Linux shitbox is Pokerstars. Wine must not like poker players... anyone got any advice for getting Party's new client running on Linux?

Got to say I agree completely with you on this one

Just to let you know that PKR will be going into the Beta testing phase towards the end of April - play money only but prizes up for grabs. Then Real money site going live towards end of May.

Some of the things we will be offering include face genning whereby players can send pictures of themselves to us and we will create their own look-a-like avatar. We hope to make the game as close to playing live poker as possible and other little features includehaving to click on your hole cards when you want to see what you have after you have initially seen them as they are dealt. The winner of hand if unseen also has the option to show just one of his face cards to the table if they so desire.

There will be plenty of other unique features but just wanted to give
you a brief idea of some of the things we'll be doing.

Here's the video preview if you haven't yet seen it http://www.pkr.com/News/News23022006.htm

Any other questions I'll be around to answer,

Andy.
