The deal will enable players to play poker on both the B2B Poker and the Boss Media poker networks using the same e-wallet.
“We know that the average online poker player plays on three different poker networks. Therefore we have decided to break the poker monopoly and make it possible for players to use different poker networks without the hassle of using more than one e-wallet. This is a unique service for our players that make 24hPoker.com an even better gaming site and 24hNetwork a stronger partner. We are also looking forward to an increased co-operation with Boss Media in the future,” commented Per Hildebrand, CEO of 24hPoker Holding.
Earlier last week, 24hPoker announced its interim results for the period January-September 2006, which saw a 166% increase in net sales up to SEK 232.5m and a four-fold rise in registered players to over 409,000. Despite Unibet left the B2B Network in September, B2B Poker signed contracts with five new skins, while 24hNetwork launched 18 new skins during the third quarter. B2B Poker has recently been granted a license by the Maltese Lotteries & Gaming Authority for conducting online poker from Malta and is now the only poker network licensed within the EU.
