-Beat the Pro Contest
Beat the Pro is a Multiplayer contest that you can play on our Public Tables. Every couple of months there’s a new Poker Pro for you to find, play, and beat for prizes. This month’s Poker Pro is Bounty Bob of Miner 2049er fame.
After months of searching through futuristic radioactive mines, Bounty Bob kicks back with his little know hobby: Texas Hold ‘em. Bounty Bob’s bold hold ‘em style often makes people wonder whether or not really has a hand. Rarely is there a situation in which Bounty Bob doesn’t place a hefty bet to see where his opponents are at.
Bust Bounty Bob and you’ll receive a radiation-green iPod Shuffle. You’ll find Bounty Bob in the $1000 public tables from 3 to 4pm Eastern (6 to 7pm Pacific)
Online Controls
Playing against live opponents brings a different spirit of play than in the standalone game. Chatting, taunting, and trash talk are all part of the experience too! If you’d like to chat, press the message button (usually the “M”) and type away. Make sure not to do it while it’s your turn to act because it slows down the pace of the game.
