Texas Hold'em
The high-stakes, full-intensity poker game for iPod touch and iPhone — now with gesture-based emotes, more stats, and longer competitive play.
Go all in with Texas Hold’em, a new iPod touch and iPhone application. Play against realistic opponents in single-player mode. Or play over a Wi-Fi network with up to eight of your friends. Drag your chips to go all in. Flick your cards to fold. Double-tap the table to check. Everything that makes Texas Hold’em so wildly popular now fits in your pocket. And it’s available from iTunes for just $4.99.
Gameplay
Its stunning graphics and realistic interaction may have you wearing sunglasses and working on your poker face.
Graphics and video.
Play in Vegas, Aruba, and other exotic locations with vividly detailed background settings. Lifelike opponents have their own personality quirks.
Multiplayer mode.
Whose turn is it to host poker night? Whoever has a wireless network. Get together with up to eight of your friends over Wi-Fi and the game’s on.
Game mechanics.
Watch your opponents’ behavior for tells and learn their bluffs. Tap on players and instantly see their betting history, best hand, current chip total, and more.
In-game help.
Don’t know when to hold ’em? Just touch your cards and tips appear on screen. And the Help section has flick-through visual aids to help you learn the game.
Intuitive Controls
Multi-Touch technology and the accelerometer bring a realism to Texas Hold’em that only playing with an actual deck of cards can beat.
Different points of view.
Play in first-person mode in portrait view and look directly at your opponents. Or rotate your iPod Touch or iPhone to landscape to get a top-down view of everyone at the table.
Multi-Touch gameplay.
Touch your chips to call or raise with the bet wheel. Or just drag your chips to the pot to go all in. Flick your cards to fold. And double-tap to check. Need a break from the table? Just touch and hold any two corners.
Dealing up Emotes.
Use gestures — a U for a smile, a horizontal line for a taunt — to add a little more Texas spice to your game. Gestures work in both Single and Multiplayer modes, and you can create them from the left or the right.
