3 CARD POKER LAUNCHED BY SKILL GAMING COMPANY
GameAccount heads-up game to feature tournament play, too
One of the leading skill gaming providers, the UK's GameAccount group has officially launched their "3-Card Poker" product after extensive development (see previous Online-Casinos.com & InfoPowa reports) The production version of the game is a unique person-to-person (P2P) skill-based adaptation of an evergreen casino game.
3 Card Poker has been integrated into the GameAccount Network, making it available to millions of registered players right across the inte rnational casino, sportsbook and poker sites that are members.
This skill-based version of 3-Card Poker empowers players to engage in 'Heads-Up!' play against online opponents, never directly against the 'House'. Starting with an imaginary chip stack of $10,000, the objective is to build a larger chip stack than opponents with the exact same sequence of cards dealt to both players and the automated, in-game dealer. This represents a challenging opportunity for new and veteran players of 3-Card Poker to demonstrate their own skilled 'edge' against competitors.
Instant-action cash knockout tournaments catering to both the casual gamer and the seasoned player are included in the launch timetable, and participating players can double their money, instantly, by entering with entry fees as low as US$2.00 or as high as US$900.00.
Dermot Smurfit, Marketing Director at GameAccount says: "3-Card Poker represents a compelling opportunity for sportsbook, casino and poker operators to generate incremental revenues from existing customers and re-activate lapsed customers with an exciting and instantly recognisable skill-based gaming opportunity. Like our successful existing P2P Blackjack product, we're very excited about the potential for this to be skill-gaming's latest killer application for eGaming operators."
Smurfit reminded operators that skill gaming was a legitimate way around legislative bans and a fast route to brand-building: "Skill Gaming solutions allow eGaming operators to build their brand and reputation within key jurisdictions unencumbered by the legal or regulatory considerations applicable to traditional gaming products" he said.
GameAccount offers single-wallet skill gaming software and network facilities, powering major online partners such as Victor Chandler, Sportingbet, Betcorp, Fortune Lounge, Paddypower.com, Sky Bet (BSkyB), FHM.com, Maxim and Wanadoo.
The company's financial services platform supports full multi-lingual white-label solutions with real-time exchange rates for the international nature of Internet clientele. Multi-player games include Gin Rummy, Pool and Backgammon.
