Online poker reformulated with avatars and VoIP

What do you get if you combine voice over the Internet, 3D avatars, and social gaming? Even if we did answer wrong when we first read that, you should have been better than us and whispered: Online poker.

PokerWize is debuting this new gaming format. Where you can customize the hair, skin, eye shape of your avatar. We wonder if you decide to make an ambitious gamer or a punch-drunk poker lover. More than 10,000 players should try the platform, as claimed PokerWize.

We haven’t detected any signs of Skypecast integration, the platform should just enable some SIP communications.
