The game is designed to be the most accessible and advanced poker game to date and will feature all of the skill, strategy and expertise that four-time World Poker Tour champion, Gus Hansen has to offer. Million Dollar Poker will hit all major carrier decks on October 29, 2007.

"Poker games are a staple in the arena of mobile games and our challenge was to develop the next evolution of them," said Gonzague de Vallois, vice president of publishing, Gameloft. "With Million Dollar Poker, we have succeeded through integrating Gus Hansen's strategic genius and input to create one of the most challenging poker games that takes on the player on a mental level."

Gus Hansen has provided his expertise to the game providing players with the most reality based poker experience to ever hit mobile phones. More than just the average Poker game, Gameloft's Million Dollar Poker will feature a new and innovative Artificial Intelligence engine that will constantly evolve and challenge the player.

For the first time ever, a psychological dimension is applied that will allow the AI to study its opponent, remember their moves and plan against them.

Thanks to this feature, the player will never face the same opponent twice.

"It was truly an exciting and eye-opening process for me working with Gameloft to develop this poker title," said Gus Hansen. "The amount of thought and detail put into creating this game was impressive. I was able to contribute knowledge of my poker skills, but Gameloft taught me a few things about developing a great poker game."
