Poker has gone legit. Over 60 million Americans are card-holding poker players and Texas Hold’em is the game of choice. If you count yourself among the converted then you owe it to yourself to get STACKED with Daniel Negreanu, the smartest, most sophisticated poker game ever created.
Whether you’re looking to dominate your friendly neighborhood game or to give Tobey Maguire some poker pain the next time you see him in Vegas, STACKED is the quickest, most comprehensive way to turn yourself into the poker phenom you've always wanted to be.
DANIEL NEGREANU
So what's the big deal about STACKED? Here’s a hint—his nappy, handsome mug’s right on the box. Daniel “Kid Poker” Negreanu finished last year as the best tournament poker player in the world, picking up the 2004 Card Player Magazine Player of the Year and ESPN Player of the Year. Most impressively, he became the World Poker Tour’s all-time scratch winner. That’s a lot of chips. Don't know Daniel? You will, ‘cause he’s baked right into STACKED.
Got a tricky hand and not sure whether to hold ‘em or fold ‘em? Daniel’s there, sharing the high-stakes strategies and insights he’s picked up from years of experience around the green felt. Anytime you want, you can get Negreanu’s advice on how to play your current hand. Over a thousand pro tips, for every situation and every hand, are just a button press away.
Professor Negreanu can also take you to Poker School, over 45 minutes of in-game video tutorials covering everything from the Hold’em basics to advanced pro-tournament strategies.
ADVANCED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Daniel Negreanu isn’t the one helping you earn your poker chops. Say hi to “Poki™,” STACKED's incredibly whip-smart A.I. Hard-core braniacs have put in 10-plus years of university research in game theory, machine learning and neural networks (whatever they are) to make Poki the ultimate Texas Hold’em playing machine. And you won't find Poki in any other game. It’s a STACKED exclusive.
In Career Mode, the Poki bots you play against each have their own unique playing styles and strategies. But watch out, these guys and girls pay attention--constantly analyzing your play, looking for soft spots, tells, bad playing patterns as they try to kick your ass. If you want to stay in the money, you have to keep evolving as a poker player.
CAREER MODE
You start STACKED as a rookie on the pro tour playing for small stakes against those really smart computer opponents. Choose and customize your character (the gold wraparound shades look great with the purple hair) and get playing! Build up your skills and chip stack high enough and you’ll find yourself going head-to-head against the virtual STACKED pros, including the big man himself, to grab the championship crown.
STACKED TOURNAMENTS
Poki bots are fun and all, but the true Texas Hold’em rush comes from playing against the living. And for that, STACKED is the chip leader. STACKED boasts an incredibly advanced multi-player system that can handle anything, whether it’s you and a few buds playing a cross-country pick-up game or thousands of players battling it out in a massive multi-table tournament.
The real bragging rights are reserved for those who master the STACKED Masters Tournaments, the officially sanctioned games where the best STACKED players compete. It’s at these high-octane tournaments that you might run into Daniel and his pro-poker friends. No joke! If you play your cards right, you could be going all-in against Evelyn Ng, David Williams, Josh Arieh, Jennifer Harman, Erick Lindgren, Juan Carlos Mortensen or even the master, Daniel Negreanu. Each pro uses a look-alike character model exclusively reserved for that pro. If one of them show’s up at your tournamnet table, it’s the real deal. Oh, and they really, really hate to lose.
