Texas Hold 'em for PC's, PlayStation-2 and Xbox

I'm expecting to get a promotional copy of STACKED with Daniel Negreanu to play with. It's a video Texas Hold 'em game that claims to have advanced A.I. features that will make the game fun and educational.

I'm looking forward to trying it out. I was looking for video poker and craps games to play on a PC or PlayStation a few years ago and there was very little on the market. I bought a copy of Hoyle Casino but it was so-so at best. STACKED with Daniel Negreanu sounds much better, according to the P.R. release -
"STACKED with Daniel Negreanu is the first video game to bring next-generation gameplay and broadcast quality production to Texas Hold ‘em Poker. As the premiere state-of-the-art multiplayer 3D tournament poker title, STACKED will immerse players in the excitement and drama that has become synonymous with the sport that has been recently crowned “America’s new national pastime.”
The game is scheduled for release on May 30th. It's rated T for teen. Versions will be available for Xbox®, PlayStation®2, Sony PSP handhelds, and PC's.
