Playtech and CelebPoker Deal

The relationship between the celebrity label and poker got another boost last week with the announcement that online poker room CelebPoker has been integrated into Playtech's iPoker network.

The move means that CelebPoker will now offer customers a variety of tournaments and ring game options, as well as extra promotions and prize pools.

The website will also gain a new look, including a 3-D graphic interface and new online poker room. Upgraded software will give it new features that didn't previously exist, such as multi-table options, player notes, player chat facilities and advanced hand history statistics.

Poker Promotions
Looking to keep the momentum going, CelebPoker is offering a bunch of new promotions, beginning with its new player reward scheme, the VIP club. Under the scheme, CelebPoker is offering a "six-tier structure" that includes cash bonuses, tournament tokens, CelebPoker merchandise and live event qualification.

CelebPoker CEO David Donovan was full of praise for the new alliance with Playtech.

"The move to Playtech's iPoker Network has provided us with the scope to take CelebPoker to the next level. Our players can now enjoy even more exciting games and a wider range of tournaments as part of the world's biggest poker network," he said.

Established in 1999, Playtech is the world's largest publicly traded online gaming software supplier. Among its services, it provides online software for casino and poker and bingo Websites.
