Poker game created for HBO's 'Deadwood'

To help introduce the new season of HBO's western series, "Deadwood," Fuel Games has come out with "Dead Man's Hand," a Texas Hold'em game where players sit and play poker with the show's characters.

The 3-D web-based game is a first-person game that allows players to sit down at a table to play poker against "Deadwood's" Al Swearengen, E.B. Farum and Trixie.

Just like any other real poker game, players can raise, fold and call. A different twist that makes the experience more like the television show is that players can also choose to pull out their six shooters and start shooting bottles, lamps and the people they're playing against.

Fuel Games warns players in their announcement of the game to "just be careful who you point your gun at, lest you end up downing a shot of hot lead."

Players interested in checking out the game can find it at www.deadmanshandhbo.com.
