Texas Hold'em Un-Free!

In an interview with Joystiq.com, Greg Canessa (PD for the XBLA program) announced that Texas Hold'em will unfortunately not be free, contrary to previous statements. It would appear that the lawyers couldn't deal right with RiverBelle Casino for the advertising rights, so instead it looks like we'll be paying 400-800 MSP for it. Still a fair deal if you ask me. Greg didn't want to leave on a completely sour note so he mentioned that the game will attach a bankroll number to your gamercard and explained that the more money you get you can "buy" into higher tournaments and such, loose it all and you're back at the bottom. While this isn't terribly fascinating, the mention that it's attached to your gamercard is intriguing, what if there were a whole line of casino games? could your bankroll stay between them?
