It’s Poker Time!
Intent on maintaining one of the most appreciated Ongame Network traditions we couldn’t leave London without challenging all our clients, partners and specially invited industry colleagues to a game of poker. On the line were a couple of money-can’t-buy VIP tickets to a Real Madrid game along with some digital gadgets.
After about three hours of intense action, a lot of laughs and some staggering displays of questionable plays Ongame Network’s own Giovanni Ferraro ousted Tournament and Business Manager Nils Ersson to claim the first prize.
Last brochure standing
Right. Who decided it’d be a fun idea to pop by the Ongame Network stand and stiff us for every single brochure we brought? We’re at the end of day 2 and we’ve had to tuck into our emergency stash in order to keep the stand refilled.
Heads-up mobile action!
We’ve brought a novelty to the online poker community with us to ICEi. Heads-up is the perefect format for mobile play and we believe our new tailored interface will really make regular players see the value that lies in being able to bring the game with you wherever you go.
Through this device ICEi visitors can demo the new interface and the latest version of our mobile poker application.
Our good friend MAC
It’s always nice to be able to demonstrate our products on MAC hardware. Our Java software is still unrivalled and the same can be said for the design of these iMACs. In an upcoming release later this quarter the Java poker client will receive another face lift that will put it virtually on par with our Windows software.
Stylish eh?
We’re very happy with how our stand turned out. We even managed to do something with the humongous pillar we found out at the last miunte would occupy nearly one fifth of our floor space… Good thing we are comfortable with sticking our orange lucky clover on virtually any surface…
Hectic!
The 2008 ICEi exhibition is underway and visitors are pouring in.
The line to the registration desk is approaching 50 feet! Next door the ICE exhibition is in full swing and at the other end of Earl’s Court the ATE, the world’s leading coin-op and amusement exhibition is also drawing huge crowds.
Set for ICE!
My gut tells me that ICEi this year will be extraordinarily exciting. The industry is on its biggest high ever and more than poised to take e-gaming to a whole new level. Leaving in about five hours.
