Where is Poker for the PS3?

[countryboy]

Is anyone as surprised as I am that there hasn't been mention of a poker game for the PS3 yet? I mean, poker is growing in popularity especially in video games. I can't believe that one hasn't been mentioned.

Your thoughts?

As someone who plays at least twice a week, there is no comparing playing live to playing a poker game on a console or the internet for that matter. The only way its feasible, is if its an online tournament. I've totally lost interest in playing on the internet and on the console. I kept telling myself its great practice, but it can't take the place of playing with real people in front of you. That is, if you take the game seriously. If so, a lot of local bars run a no buy in poker night on a weekly basis or a get game night going with your buds. If not and you're playing just to play, try fulltiltpoker. You'll find out real quick that the cards your getting on the videos games don't come out like that in real life.

is that why on the tv, they have people wearing ******* sunglasses and listening to ipods? I had the image of big time poker players looking people in the eyes and trying to give a poker face. The people on the shows play in a shell.

Just make it multiplayer only with voice chat and I'm sure it would do quite well if the price was right.
