Written by Modojo Staff on Wednesday, August 8, 2007
T-Mobile today announced the first winner to collect GBP 25,000 on the mobile Video Poker application facilitated by UK mobile gaming provider Cellectivity. The big win comes straight off the back of another lucky GBP 20,000 win on mobile roulette also facilitated by Cellectivity. The flurry of big wins confirms mobile arrival on the gambling scene alongside more established internet devices.
Video Poker and Roulette are both featured on "Cash Casino" T-Mobile's highly successful gambling portal. The service which has now totalled more than 60,000 visits since its launch less than a year ago is developed and operated by Cellectivity, the UK's leading mobile betting and gambling provider. Cash Casino is unique in allowing users to download a wide range of exciting gaming applications developed exclusively for mobiles direct to their handset.
The extensive choice of games and services available include Blackjack, Slots, Bingo, Roulette, Nudge 7, HiLo as well as some of the most recognisable big name brands such as Party Gaming, Casino Tropez, 777 Mobile, Lady Luck's Mobile Casino, Wild Jack Mobile Casino and Bet2Go. The Portal offers users both 'real' and 'play' money options, allowing users to practise their skills, pit their wits or just play for fun.
Quick, easy and free to download the service offers T-Mobile customers access to all the fun of online gaming direct to their mobile handset anytime, anywhere, be it on the daily commute, in the pub or in the comfort of their own home.
