Mobile companies get in on the poker action

As remote gambling rises in the UK, mobile phone companies are taking advantage of the trend with new casino games.

The latest company to climb on the bandwagon is T-Mobile, which has announced the launch of a new gambling service via a recently-acquired partnership with Cecure Gaming.

Games such as Texas Hold'em poker will be customised by Cecure for the T-Mobile platform, Mobile Betting News reports.


Also in the news, Vodafone will use Cecure to launch a new blackjack game, with approved entry stakes of £10.

The UK's Gambling Commission has announced plans to introduce regulation of mobile gambling platforms from next September, after concerns that mobiles might not be suitable hosts.
