Stacked with Daniel Negreanu dealt onto PSP

Pocket poker players are about to get yet another way to indulge their vice thanks to the launch of Stacked with Daniel Negreanu on PSP.

Described by publishers Myelin Media as the 'premiere Texas hold 'em video game' (well, we guess they would say that), Stacked promises to call the competition's bluff with its advanced artificial intelligence system that adapts to your playing style and that apparently has taken ten years to develop. (Hmm, maybe they weren't so smart then? – Ed).

A big brain is not the only potential ace in Stacked's pack, though. The game also features accurately modelled 3D environments and characters based on real players and casinos, professional broadcast style presentation, and a dedicated poker school offering tuition from poker pro Daniel Negreanu who lends his name to the game (well, he probably leases it).

Stacked with Daniel Negreanu is going on sale in the US right about now, and hopefully we'll get a chance to see how it stacks up against the likes of World Series of Poker, World Poker Tour, World Series of Poker Texas Hold 'Em on mobile and Texas Hold 'Em on iPod before the year is out.
