CFSPoker Released.

C F S Nevada, Inc. has released a new commercial OS/2 video poker game. CFSPoker, which replicates all of the functions of the actual gaming machines (except for not having a payout hopper), is unique in many respects - particularly its distribution.

The program is distributed free of charge with 1,000 game credits. The program runs with no restrictions so long as the player is able to maintain a positive credit balance. If the player depletes his credits to zero, the game must be registered to be re-enabled. Winning credits that the player accumulates while playing the game are added to his available credits. Therefore, a player able to keep a positive credit balance need never register the product. If registration is necessary, it can be done via phone, FAX, or E-mail. The one-time registration fee is $34.95 and provides the user with an electronic key for the game which permits unlimited use.

While the idea of video poker games for personal computers is neither new nor unique, CFSPoker is different both in its design and operation. CFSPoker presentation and operation resemble the current, generally available International Game Technology, Sigma Games, and Ballys gaming machines found around the world.

CFSPoker is fully configurable by the player. CFSPoker is available from electronic repositories worldwide for free download. The home World Wide Web site is http://www.cfsrexx.com/ or via anonymous FTP from ftp.cfsrexx.com/pub/CFSPoker.zip(case-specific). FTP sites and BBS operators are welcome to mirror this site. CFSPoker is also distributed on the IBM OS/2 Family Sampler CD-ROM that will accompany the release of Warp 4.0 (Merlin).
