Words With Poker Tweeps

Three-tabling Negreanu, KevMath, SpartanFox

@Kevmath laid down the gauntlet on Twitter this evening on the ever-popular “Words With Friends” app. Soon @RealKidPoker and @Mark_Gahagan were in on the action, offering up their WWF user names publicly on twitfeed. Now I’m three-tabling them all headups.

Negreanu just countered back after I triple-word scored on “SIZED”. Seems he’s playing from his new iPad from NAPT at the Bike.

@RealKidPoker: “34,575 end lvl 4. Nice little comeback reminiscent of my start in EPT Vienna. A bit tired, and playing words with friends to pass time.”

Gahagan may have just pulled ahead with his 57-pointer “VIEW” off my “QUIDS”, but I’m not drawing dead yet. As for Kevmath, I’m on the warpath after he used a questionable “ER” to position off a triple word score.

If HR2267 had already passed, I’d be looking to lay some cash on this tonight.

Texas Hold’em on the iPhone

There will be a day not too far off — in our lifetimes for sure, as the technology is already in play at 7-Elevens in Taiwan — when our cell phones and wallets are one in the same. No wonder there are so many issues about the transfer of funds via satellite, internet, bad beats, etc.

Check out the quality of poker on the iPhone (via Pokerazzo):

Damn, we’ve come a long way since the early days of PartyPoker, which graphics-wise seems more like pong, or at least Pitfall.

UPDATE: Dude, that sucks … don’t know why he would turn of the embeddability … but here’s the direct link to this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6r_Er2wwAMg
