Wednesday 24th June 2009 Unibet Launches MariaPoker.com
A new feminine-themed online poker room has been launched by operator Unibet at MariaPoker.com as a sister site to MariaBingo.com, the successful bingo portal it acquired in 2007.
MariaPoker.com has been designed to appeal to players of all levels with particular attention paid to beginners as it features an online poker school intended to guide novice players through their initial gaming experience.
Powered by the new Flash Poker software from Microgaming, MariaPoker.com also features quick tips, visual aids, step-by-step tutorials of basic plays, libraries and improvement techniques.
'We are excited to launch poker on the Maria brand, which is possibly the strongest female brand in northern Europe,” said Petter Nylander, Chief Executive Officer for Unibet.
“By implementing Microgaming's platform on MariaPoker.com we can ensure that the products we offer are the most innovative and captivating and well suited to the fun and feminine ethos of our newest gaming portal.'
MariaPoker.com also features the innovative no-lobby interface with all game selections available directly from the poker table. To keep the site interesting, there will also be a wide range of freerolls, guaranteed daily tournaments and turbo tables for quick players.
New players can take advantage of the standard sign-up bonus along with player bonuses from €50 to €500 without a minimum deposit while regular competitors can earn VIP loyalty points.
'It is a fantastic testament to our experience that Unibet has continued to trust in Microgaming's software platform for the launch of its latest venture,” said Roger Raatgever, Chief Executive Officer for Microgaming.
“There is currently a boom period of female participation in gaming so it is certain that MariaPoker.com is set to become an exciting portal in all countries.'
