HoldemPoker.com has stolen a march on its competitors this week by being awarded accreditation from the Global Gambling Guidance Group (G4) for its commitment to Responsible Gaming. Together with G4, HoldemPoker.com has worked to implement features and procedures specifically designed to prevent and minimise the harm caused by problem gambling.

Michael Wahlgren, the Director of HoldemPoker said: 'Trust is essential in the online poker business. By implementing all of the changes recommended by G4 we demonstrate that we take our responsibilities seriously and can be trusted.'

Members of HoldemPoker.com can now check their gaming activity and set personal limits. For those concerned about problem gambling help is available around the clock on the HoldemPoker.com website, from the HoldemPoker.com customer care team and via G4's e-mail counselling service.

G4's Pieter Remmers commented, 'We are very pleased at the efforts made by HoldemPoker.com to tackle problem gambling. Their efforts send a clear message to their customers and competitors alike and prove that HoldemPoker.com takes the issue of problem gambling seriously.'
