Il cash game su PokerStars.it

PokerStars.it, la poker-room numero 1 in Italia con regolare licenza AAMS, annuncia che a partire da lunedì 18 luglio sarà possibile giocare in modalità cash game sul sito di poker più amato dai player italiani. Dopo aver ottenuto la certificazione della piattaforma da parte dell’ente di verifica TST/GLI, PokerStars.it ha superato con successo il collaudo tecnico con i Monopoli di Stato, ed e’ ora pronta ad ampliare la sua offerta di gioco con la modalità cash game in tutta sicurezza.
Il poker cash è una modalità differente dal torneo, non vi é una quota d’iscrizione prestabilita e le chips che vengono consegnate all’inizio corrispondono alla somma di denaro che si vuole investire. A differenza del torneo o dei sit&go i bui sono prestabiliti e non cambiano con il passare del tempo. Intellipoker, la scuola di poker di PokerStars.it, ha implementato una sezione completamente dedicata alla nuova modalità di gioco dove gli utenti potranno confrontarsi con i grandi campioni sulla materia. Il Team PRO di PokerStars.it ha inoltre scritto una guida introduttiva al poker cash disponibile a tutti giocatori.
Il lancio del cash game su PokerStars.it sarà accompagnato da nuove promozioni che renderanno ancora più avvincenti le sfide nella nuova modalità di gioco.
Nei primi giorni l’offerta della modalità poker cash avrà delle limitazioni d’orario.
