Convergence in New Online Casino Partnership
The World Poker Store (WPS) has announced not only the new German Bar Poker
League (GBPL) events in Germany later this year, but also a new partnership
agreement with one of the fastest growing online casinos on the Web. The
EverestPoker.com brand is a subsidiary of Giga Media and has performed
exceedingly well in the past several months in terms of adding new players to
the company’s base of interested online casino poker players, as well as major
increases in the company’s guaranteed prize pools at some of the site’s weekly
and monthly tournaments. The two companies are growing brands in the European
market, and the partnership agreement is a prime opportunity to solidify brand
recognition and boost the visibility of both companies.
The GBPL events involve live poker games in bars and pubs throughout Germany,
and the partnership agreement with Everest Poker allows Everest to solely
sponsor the events online presence. The online casino poker site will not only
promote the GBPL events through the site and on the Web, but the Everest brand
will be prominently displayed on all promotions, and the actual physical parts
of the poker games – the poker table felt, chips, cards, and more.
The partnership launches this fall and will go a long way toward boosting the
Everest Poker online casino gambling brand, but beyond that, the partnership
really opens up the bar poker leagues to a whole new level of game-play. The CEO
at WPS notes, "This partnership will offer our players in Germany more
opportunity to compete worldwide for premiere tournament invites through the
League and through EverestPoker.com's online contests as well.” At this point
the partnership announcement comes right as both companies are also involved in
the World Series of Poker events in Las Vegas. |
