Now aficionados and novices of the game of poker, the international phenomenon reinvented by the likes of ESPN and the World Poker Tour, have a new home on the internet! PK Interactive Technologies provides an opportunity for the beginner and the card shark to mingle at its website on everything poker: Pokersource.net/
This portal will provide not only information on the major events in this field, such as the new WSOP Series which is currently being readied for launch in 2005, but also links local, national, and international players, both young and old, and contributions from experts on subjects ranging from "poker etiquette" to the latest professional standings around the world.
According to Patrick Kovack, speaking at the launch of this portal, "PK Interactive Technologies, which uses digital signage and communication technologies for marketing purposes, is aggressively pursuing the online gaming and poker communities. In order to achieve the objectives set forth by the heads of the company two years ago, which was to bring the latest technological advancements to existing marketing outlets and change the way visual marketing is done, major efforts are needed to reach growing market segments in new and exciting ways, and particularly in e-commerce". Mr. Kovack went on to say: "I intended this site to be above all a forum for dialog to encourage new players, professionals and the gaming society alike to take advantage of the tremendous focus being placed upon poker around the world right now."
The new website is therefore aimed at a wide audience, both new players and seasoned veterans. This will make it possible to disseminate the best information to the community as a whole, and to begin to bring a new experience to the player. Pokersource.net will also allow users to search for information and events and make the necessary contacts to learn more about regular and tournament poker.
For example, the site currently contains a description of the major poker games being played at a professional level. Pokersource.net’s site allows those who play poker, those who follow poker, and people interested in playing poker, to contact other players and use the information on the site as inspiration for their own initiatives. The site can also be used to access tournament rules and policies to promote tournament poker, not only in the WPT and WSOP but also in the nation’s casinos. The site will also contain information on the main events in the United States and Europe in the various games of poker, together with a glossary of terms used in this game, interspersed with all the slang you can manage. Shuffle up and deal!
