PokerTek, Inc. is excited to announce the release of PokerPro Heads-Up, the industry’s first two-seated heads-up style electronic poker table. Never before has an automated heads-up table been available for play in a casino.
“The idea is simple,” said James Crawford, President of PokerTek. “Poker players love to play heads-up poker and casino operators are constantly looking for new ways to meet their customers’ needs. In the past, it’s been hard to find a casino that would deal a heads-up game for regular players. Now, PokerPro Heads-Up offers casinos a profitable way to spread heads-up poker.”
"We believe there is strong player demand for heads-up poker in our casino," said Hashem Minaiy, CEO of The Bicycle Casino in Bell Gardens, California. "Unfortunately, this form of poker is too costly to be hand-dealt. With the advent of PokerPro Heads-Up, we can now offer this great game to our players."
PokerPro Heads-Up uses only 20% of the floor space of a traditional table. This compact design allows operators to position the poker table in the poker room and throughout the casino floor.
PokerPro Heads-Up incorporates all the benefits of the PokerPro™ technology, including speed, accuracy and secure, cashless gaming.
PokerPro Heads-Up allows operators to spread both sit-and-go tournaments and one-on-one cash games.
PokerPro Heads-Up has been submitted to Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) for certification. PokerTek previously announced that PokerPro X, the original 10-seated poker table, was GLI-certified on October 5, 2006. Both PokerPro Heads-Up and PokerPro X will be on display at Booth #3949 at the Global Gaming Expo from November 14-16 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
