Poker is owned and operated by 32Red Plc – a UK
facing e-gaming specialist company registered on the AIM of the
London Stock Exchange. Focusing on offering players a personal
service and on developing a secure, fair and fun playing environment,
32Red Poker is one of the fastest growing poker websites.
The
seat at the WSOP 2008 represents one part of
a changing promotional and tournament system at 32Red
Poker. March 2008 saw the launch of The 32Red
Elevator
– a new player loyalty system – and 32Red Poker has
subsequently announced an April Poker Festival which will include
a number of exclusive freerolls and additional bonuses.
Mark
Quayle, 32Red Marketing Manager, said, “Our
new poker
tournaments and promotions represent an increased focus on
players by offering rewards connected to play. Plus our promotions
will keep playing online
poker at 32Red interesting and varied. Also
the April Festival means we’re offering a lot of free poker
this month, which anyone can take part in”.
The
WSOP seat promotion includes the $10,000 buy-in
fee, $3,000 in travel expenses to Las Vegas and 32Red
Poker are giving an extra $3,200 to the first seat winner
that Quayle believes, “will allow the player to enjoy the
city in true 32Red style.”
Starting
on the 4th of June the WSOP is three days of
poker’s best players battling for the $12 million first
prize or for a portion of the combined prizepool of $82 million.
32Red Plc CEO Ed Ware said, “It’s
exciting to think 32Red Poker could be taking
players to the WSOP to play against the world’s best. We’re
confident our players would be competitive, having honed their
skills and become winners with us at 32Red Poker.”
The
competition to win the WSOP seats through 32Red
Poker involves a series of satellite tournaments. The
winners progress through the 32Red
Poker
tournaments and join one of the six finals. The winners of
each will be jetted off to Vegas and the WSOP.
