New Poker Game Takes the Chance out of Hold'em

e-PokerUSA Inc. has announced the launch of its new free and skill-based game site, www.e-PokerUSA.com. The site has a new version of Texas Hold�em, which e-PokerUSA allege is legal for US players because it removes much of the chance or luck involved in traditional poker.

The patent-pending product, 'Duplicate Texas Hold'em Poker', introduces a new twist to the classic online Texas Hold'em game since the object of the game is to beat opponents at other tables with the same playing hand. This reduces the luck in the game since it is not about getting dealt good cards or bad cards in the hand. Rather, it comes down to how well an entrant plays against their opponents in strategy.

The 'Duplicate Texas Hold'em Poker' game is the first to be launched on the e-PokerUSA's proprietary gaming network. 'We are excited to introduce to the consumer market a fun, free and legal way to play our version of Texas Hold'em for cash in the US,� said Pinhas Romik, CEO and founder of e-PokerUSA Inc.

�Our game is an entertaining product for skill-based players and a good alternative for poker players looking for a product in the US that they can feel safe and secure playing at,� continued Romik.
