PokerTek.com Site Review

Most people have now seen or at least heard of digital poker tables.  PokerTek.com is the company developing these products where players can enjoy poker without the need for a human dealer.

The first automatic poker table was the PokerPro released in 2003.  The product was aimed at not only making poker easier for new players and cut out all mistakes but also to increase revenue for the casino.  It meant a faster game all round with more hands and easier set up for multi table tourneys.

It has all the benefits of playing in the casino but with the added advantages you get from playing online.  It’s not just a one trick pony, all game variants can be played this means that whatever the player is looking for and no matter how experienced, this is a great way to play your game.  There’s not another place in the world where you can experience both live poker and online poker in one seat.

The PokerPro table also gives players a chance to see the odds, previous hands and all types of statistics.

PokerTek then came up with the Heads-Up Challenge.  Buttons and trackballs are used for players to challenge each other over heads up hold’em and the Italian Bocce platform.  Although the success of the PokerPro in casinos, with the trackball more like an arcade golf game the Heads-up Challenge was made for pubs and game rooms.

No actual betting for cash takes place however if pride just isn’t enough then there’s no harm in a little side bet to get things going. A great tool to have in your local if someone is all talk.  Just take it to the Heads-up challenge and let the money do the talking for once.  There will be no doubt of your poker skills after that.

These tables are both out there right now.  If not in your local casino or pub you should be able to find them somewhere not too far away.  They are a great way to play poker for beginners and more experienced players so if you do come across one you should definitely give it ago. You won’t regret it.

If you want to find out any more information about PokerTek then go to PokerTek.com.  Or take a look at these videos to see the tables being played. The heads-up has no sound but you still get a good idea of what it’s all about.
