Default Birdsoft Releases Crazy Bird's All-In Hold 'Em

http://www.uglybass.com/birdsoft/holdem.htm

"Birdsoft is pleased to introduce our new Flagship Card Game in the Crazy Bird Series. All-In Hold'Em is a new breed of Pocket PC poker games, featuring superior AI and Graphics to ensure you the best Poker experience possible. Based on a refined version of the Poker Engine found in our Top Selling PokerHand game, All-In expands on it with totally re-written Artificial Intelligence coded specifically for the game of Texas Hold Em. Not ony that but we've designed a new Poker Graphics Engine, which manages to look superior to any other poker game out there and still allow 7 computer players to compete against you at one time. Add to that our usual array of customization options and REAL Tournament play rules and we think you'll agree that All-In Hold 'Em has raised the bar for Pocket PC Poker. Try it today!"

Excellent Program. I have been using the beta versions and must say that this program blows ANY other program in the market out of the WATER!!!

You MUST buy this software if you are a poker fan!!

I was also a beta tester, and I gotta say... I was impressed, even with the very first alpha version. The program was rock solid, even then. Some features didn't work, and there were some times that a winning hand would, in fact, lose, but the program itself was extremely stable.

Plus, the developer was VERY good about taking suggestions in stride. For example, I suggested using the d-pad to allow for "stylus-free" play, and he not only put it in there, but spent countless hours troubleshooting it to get it to work just right (which it now does).

The AI is so realistic, it's almost scary, and the graphics are simply outstanding for a Pocket PC poker game. I heartily recommend that you give it a go.

This comes just in time. Another board I belong to is putting together a San Francisco Bay Area wide Hold'em tourny. Thanks!

OK, I haven't bought it yet, as I saw it had a demo. I loaded the game, thinking that this was probably just another "hyped" up game, as most games seem to be.

I was blown away by the graphics and how life like the computer players are. The game moves quickly and is easy to learn.

Great games for the ppc are so hard to find these days and I would highly recommend this game.

What's that noise... My credit card coming out of my wallet. :lol:
