BPlay and Hands-On Mobile have announced the launch of World Poker Tour (WPT) Texas Hold’em for BlackBerry devices.
The game will be available to purchase via the BPlay website and to access the game, customers visit the website on their mobile phones, select Top 10 and then WPT Texas Hold’em. The game is available at a cost of one-time $8.95 fee for unlimited use (plus applicable carrier messaging charges).
'WPT is the number one brand in poker and we're thrilled to deliver this leading title to our BlackBerry users who are embracing entertainment as an integral part of the mobile experience,' said Nicholas Reichenbach, SVP of BPlay. 'Poker is a favourite activity that can be enjoyed and played in person, online and now, on the BlackBerry.'
Just last month, the two companies announced an exclusive agreement for BPlay to distribute Hands-On Mobile products into the BlackBerry market.
'Texas Hold’em is a worldwide phenomenon and we are excited to be working hand-in-hand with BPlay and World Poker Tour to make the top mobile poker franchise available to BlackBerry users,” said Michael Temkin, CTO and SVP of product development at Hands-On Mobile.
