PKR releases biggest software update since launch



Next generation poker site PKR has launched its single biggest software update since it first came to market 4 years ago. The release of version 2.0 of PKR’s award-winning software features a completely new user interface that makes playing poker both easier and more enjoyable.

The new release also features a completely overhauled lobby that allows players to use a game finder wizard to locate the games and tournaments they want with a minimum of fuss. Version 2.0 of the PKR software also debuts a new multi-tabling system which allows players to play up to 9 tables at once.

Leon Walters, PKR’s Chief Operating Officer said, “Version 2.0 of PKR has been in the pipeline for almost a year, and it’s just the start of what we have planned. Version 2.0 is all about making PKR easier and more enjoyable to play.”

Marketing Director Simon Prodger said “Version 2.0 marks a big step in the evolution of PKR; the changes have been a response to the feedback from players, which is a key part of the development process. PKR is driven by its community and that is reflected in everything we do.”

PKR is 4



Next-gen poker room celebrates successes 4 years

PKR has come a long way since its historic launch on August 17, 2006 with a bold promise to change the way online poker is played forever.

In the past four years the online poker company famous for its 3D technology and community interaction has accumulated some impressive statistics including more than 3,750,000 registered players on the site, with a total of 15,850 people playing online at once, and a whopping $2,925,816.31 has been given away in freerolls.

PKR has also achieved recognition for its work, earning Online Poker Operator of the Year 2009 at the International Gaming Awards and Poker Operator of the Year 2009 from the eGaming Review Awards.

Along the way, PKR has launched its own poker magazine, started its own regular TV show, and sponsored London’s first licensed live poker venue. PKR has also fulfilled its community promise, introducing its own bi-annual live poker event PKR LIVE, and Team PKR Pro, which is made entirely of up and coming players from the site.

PKR’s success shows no signs of fatigue. Marketing Director Simon Prodger said, “We’re very proud of our achievements to date. We came against a lot of pessimism for being so innovative when we launched, but our customers have shown that they enjoy playing in our true to life environment and really appreciate the community feel.”

Free $10 ticket to RedKings fresh fish $5000 FishMarket Tournament.

Hundreds of new players at RedKings have already received a free $11 ticket to the $5000 Guaranteed tournament and these free tickets will continue to be issued to all new depositing players right up until 30 minutes before the tournament starts.

Over the past few weeks online poker room RedKings have been preparing all their newest players for the next FishMarket tournament which kicks off this coming Thursday 19th August at 20.00 CET.

It’s a well known fact in the online poker world that the fish at RedKings are plentiful and just line up to be caught. Experienced MTT players are relishing another FishMarket Tournament remembering the absolute carnage of the past few events.

Commented Allison Summers, RedKings VIP Manager, "we attract a lot of Fish at RedKings as a result of poker promotions which are mainly targeted at the lower stakes and recreational online poker player. The FishMarket poker tournaments give them the opportunity to try out a Multi Table event, many for the first time, to see if they have the skill or luck to compete with no risk to them financially. We are calling on all poker players to come and try out the FishMarket Tournament."

Different from the last FishMarket event is that free buy-in tickets have also been handed out to all new depositors at BetRedKings the new online sports betting vehicle of sister poker room RedKings, so added to the mix will be a whole bunch of sports betting punters who will also be playing in this fish fest for the first time.

Added Summers, "so its fresh fish and chips free at RedKings $5000 August FishMarket Tourney this Thursday. Either play free poker if you are new or win with ease if you have been around at RedKings Poker a bit, it’s a no brainer!"

The FishMarket tournaments have a starting stack of 1500 chips with levels changing every 10 minutes to ensure some fast paced action.

RedKings have some of the best Online Poker Bonuses and are also holding a $150,000 Points race starting today which also gives away 75 packages to the upcoming Ongame Live poker series called GSOP Live. For smaller players there is a $3000 hands race with the winner getting a $1600 buy-in package to the first live event in Riga this October. Coupled with the most lucrative Poker cash back Scheme in Online Poker RedKings is a good place to play your poker online.
