Glu Mobile prepares a challenge like few others have been seen until now. All those who love card games have the opportunity of showing off their skills in the World Series of Poker. They will have the chance of competing in a challenge
where only the best can be among the winners.

The special feature about this competition is that it will be based on the image of Johnny Chan, worldwide poker celebrity. There will also be included Chris "Jesus" Ferguson, Shannon Elizabeth, Scotty Nguyen, Annie Duke and Michael Mizrachi. All these names are meant to appeal only to the most skilled players, as only they would be fully capable of appreciating the renowned names which are featured.

"The graphics and features are impressive, and the game is more realistic than any I've seen on a mobile phone before", said Johnny Chan. Moreover, this looks like one of the best experiences he has ever had with this type of technology. "I've played some colorful players in my day, but this is the first time I've played myself on a mobile phone", he further said.

Moreover, "World Series of Poker Pro Challenge's stunning graphics and adaptive AI truly deliver the experience of going heads-up against these world-class poker pros", said Jill Braff, GM of the Americas at Glu.

This World Series of Poker Pro Challenge comes with the most evolved graphics technology, which manages to bring an excellent experience for mobile game players. Moreover, the game also includes Tells-computerized opponents that hint at the strength of their hand.

One interesting aspect about this game is that it offers a first person perspective, which reveals the opponents' reactions in an innovatory and unique way. This is highly useful in the case of bluffs, while the Tilt Meter shows how frustration grows for each opponent until the meter is filled and they start making poor decisions.
