New Facebook poker application – Poker Rivals

By
Zynga is the social games company which produces the biggest and huge success social games for biggest social networks. It’s main competitor is PlayFish which always try creating similar games.

Zynga has FarmVille, Playfish has Country Story, Zynga – CaffeWorld, PlayFish – Restaurant City. Zynga has Texas Holdem, so PlayFish just launched new poker application called Poker Rivals.

It is a nice poker room with similar features such as daily chips lottery, achievements, friend invitations and gifts etc. Flash client is much nicer than Zynga's (personal opinion).


Here is the table view of PokerRivals:

As you can see it has some interesting and nicely designed features. Hopefully it will become popular and good competitor to Zynga’s Texas Holdem.

All Poker Pros in Twitter

By
Just got the idea to collect all the poker pros in Twitter. Twitter does not have the requirement and the manner to collect real information about the person, sometimes it can be hard to distinguish the real poker pro from the fan who loves him/her so much that puts on their picture and tweets "on behalf". Some call such fans "squatters", but I would rather consider them as too zealous fans :) I would need some help from the readers, so if you know some poker pros which are not on the list, please let me know either in comments or privately.

Since the dawn of civilization, sports have been a cornerstone of human culture, a source of camaraderie, competition, and entertainment. Over time, most sports have evolved, incorporating new rules, technologies, and strategies. However, there are a few that have remained largely unchanged, preserving their original essence and charm. Let's dive into these timeless pursuits and explore why they've endured through the centuries. 1. Sumo Wrestling Originating in Japan, Sumo wrestling has a history that spans over 1500 years.

The fundamental rules, where a wrestler tries to force his opponent out of the ring or to touch the ground with any part of his body other than the soles of his feet, have remained unchanged.

The newest tech geek toy iPad has already got its first poker application. It comes together with a handy app called Game Table on April 3rd, 2010. Poker is just one of the games besides chess and checkers. This iPad application costs $0.99, so it’s really affordable. There is no more details about the game, but it seems quite interesting if players will be able to fold or through away chips with finger touch. Hopefully it will reveal a new touchscreen experience for poker players.
