Mobile Poker is awesome!!!

tdotgrynder

Okay.....are you guys ready for the new wave?? Yep...it's mobile poker...and anyone who is on the go as much as I am will appreciate this as much as I do!!! This service allows us poker junkies to enjoy our favorite SnG's AND cash games all on a mobile device (even a phone). On top of that, the site that I play on (Pokerroom.com) is currently offering a promotion that allows you to win a cool high tech mobile device to play on. If anyone is interested, I would definitely recommend that you check it out....as I am sure you will hear about this new technology over the course of the WSOP this year.

is there unlimited data plan out there?

tdotgrynder

Yes there are unlimited data plans out there and apparently they are not even that expensive. I contacted Rogers the other day and they informed me that I could add the unlimited data package to my account for less than $150 per month!! (which is not bad at all if you are making any sort of money online). As far as the other question goes; you are not able to play mobile poker on just ANY phone. I believe the phone has to be web enabled GSM phone....but if you purchased your phone within the last 2 years....then it probably is. As I was saying before, Pokerroom is offering a freeroll tourney right now that awards the winner with a brand new cell that is perfect for playing mobile poker. Here is the link for anyone that is interested:

ROFLMFAO. I wonder what you would define as expensive. My cell phone bill is $8.50 per month. Ask Rogers for that plan.

Hey Moose

How did you get a plan for $8.50/month??? Do you use your cell a lot?

moose

I kept calling to cancel telling them it was too much. They kept cutting the price. Last November I finally got it cut from $11.50 to my new ultimate low. Then they sent me a new phone in Feb. ha ha ha. I love Rogers.

Be careful. There is not such thing a true unlimited package. They cap it at 200MB/month I think.

So if you use it as I do with my laptop (business) you really have to watch your usage.

What is included for $8.50/month? Do you get any minutes at all?

Yeh its a good thing... i am exited to know that all procese. I realy want to play poker games in my cell phone.

Unfortunately for us rural bums we have very limited service. The only reliable provider I can get (and they aren't that reliable) is Telus.

It's 40 min/month. All I need. Cheaper than PAYG.

Thought for that price the phone must be "Rotary Dial"
But then I thought, How would a Moose get those big hooves (sp?) into the little holes?
