World Poker Congress Brings Poker Synergy to Online and Land-Based Poker Operators

Press Release
Global Gaming Business
Thursday April 27, 11:32 am ET
LAS VEGAS, April 27 /PRNewswire/ — The poker boom of the past several years is often attributed to two elements: the televising of live poker events, such as the World Series of Poker and the World Poker Tour; and the growth of online poker rooms, where anyone can learn to play the game without the pressure of other players across the table. But what do these two issues have in common? New poker players!
Research has clearly shown that players who learn to play poker online usually wind up in a live poker room of some description, while online poker rooms are used to finding new players who were first attracted to the game via the televised tournaments. But how do you best increase your business by using this ongoing synergy?
The World Poker Congress, scheduled for June 27-28, 2006 at the City Conference Center in Stockholm, Sweden, is the first conference to integrate the online and live aspects of the poker industry. With two tracks, one devoted to the online issues and the other addressing concerns of the land- based, live game, the World Poker Congress will bring attendees from each side of the equation to discuss the synergies and possibilities of the entire spectrum of the poker world.
“Online poker operators are facing increasing competition at all levels,” says Sue Schneider, president of one of the conference organizers, the River City Group, the leading information provider for online gaming. “The World Poker Congress will highlight the strategies, products and services that will help any online poker room stay at the top of their game.”
The World Poker Congress is truly a “must-attend” conference that will help to shape the direction and future of the poker world. The World Poker Congress will help your company develop strategies that create a brand and an attraction to gain new players.
“To be successful in the poker world, you must understand the challenges and opportunities,” says Paul Dworin, publisher of Global Gaming Business and PokerBIZ magazines, the only magazines dedicated to the business of the poker industry. “The World Poker Congress will give operators and vendors a window into poker’s future.”
The two announced keynote speakers will offer more than enough advice to justify attending. Jeffrey Pollack, the first commissioner of the World Series of Poker, and Steve Lipscomb, president of the World Poker Tour, will deliver a keynote speech at the event. A full slate of conference sessions will be held on those two days. Attendees will be able to meet with colleagues at two cocktail parties, continental breakfasts, and networking breaks.

Effective April 25th, Poker Share is again gracing the pages of the web with it’s unique approach to online poker. Last year, using an innovative profit sharing program, players at Poker Share could benefit from successful and continued growth of Poker Share by playing on the site. Poker Share players could earn a percentage of profits to the casino. Unfortunately, Poker Share had the rug pulled out from under them before they could really get established. But the rug is gone and wall to wall carpeting has been installed!
Poker Share joined forces with the Tain Network and began testing their site during the month of March. To assist in their transformation and rebirth, Poker Share acquired Satyaswaroop Mahapatra formerly of PartyGaming to assist in implementing and monitoring Poker Share’s success. So pick a table, grab a seat, cut the cards and be dealt in to the profit sharing program that can only be found at Poker Share !

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica, April 25 /PRNewswire/ — Absolute Poker, the fourth largest online poker website in the world, announced Jeff Natland will drive Absolute Poker’s Ferrari F430 Spider as part of its sponsorship of the Gumball 3000 Rally 2006 which kicks off this weekend in London, England. Absolute Poker is one of only ten overall sponsors of the event. The eighth annual Gumball 3000, the world’s largest cult car rally, combines Phileas Fogg’s quest to traverse the world in 80 days with a rock star style-tour — a 3000-mile adventure around the world, starting in London (April 30), making its way through Europe and Asia and finishing eight days later in Los Angeles (May 7). In addition, Absolute Poker will also be giving away chances to win a place at the Gumball 3000 wrap party at the Playboy Mansion. Promotional events are planned at Gumball 3000 events or online at Absolute Poker

“We’re raring to hit the road in this amazing event,” said Mike Edwards, Absolute Poker marketing manager. “What better combination is there than high- performance cars, a global adventure, rock stars, celebrities and of course our favorite … poker. Absolute Poker is participating in the Gumball 3000 race because we know our players are all adventurers at heart and they love living in the fast lane as much as we do.”
The Absolute Poker Ferrari F430
Jeff Natland is a partner at Arizona Bay, a privately-held technology and business management consulting company based in San Francisco, California. Prior to joining Arizona Bay, Jeff was Chief Information Officer at Neteller, a partner of Absolute Poker and a leading service provider for secure online funds transfer. His car, one of only 120 entries in the race is a charcoal grey 2006 Ferrari F430 Spider — and it is poised to rip up the road. Ferrari’s F430 takes an evolutionary approach in its styling borrowing from the new 612 Scaglietti, and heavily influenced by Ferrari’s supercar, the Enzo. The Ferrari F430 is anything but a pretty face, however as its mid- mount engine delivers more than 483 brake horse power (bhp) and can accelerate from 0-60 mile per hour in about 3.9 seconds. Come out to the events and have your picture taken with the Absolute Poker Girls in front of the car. All photos will end up on the Absolute Poker Online Wall of Fame.
Win a Ticket to the Playboy Mansion!
Absolute Poker is making it possible for anyone to join in the fun with two cool promotions. First, anyone who attends the Gumball 3000 events in London, Las Vegas and Los Angeles can pick up a lucky Absolute Poker poker chip or playing card from the Absolute Poker Girls. Every night on the Absolute Poker website between April 30 to May 6, a lucky poker chip number will be revealed and the person with the matching chip will automatically win $1000.
Players can also play in Absolute Poker’s Gumball 3000 poker tournaments online to win tickets to the Gumball 3000 events in Las Vegas or to the final party at the Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills. There will be four tournaments played for tickets to the Las Vegas event and four tournaments played for the Playboy Mansion event in Los Angeles. The tournament winners will win two tickets to either event and travel and expense money for the trip. The tournaments will end May 3 to allow winners to make travel arrangements so they can join the Gumball 3000 drivers, their celebrity and rock star friends at either party in Las Vegas or Beverly Hills.
