Bodog.com Entertainment Ltd announces that effective of January 10, 2005, a bookmaker’s license has been granted for the United Kingdom.

Bodog has experienced substantial growth over its 10 operating years, and with the acquisition of a UK license, 2005 will be another huge year for the company.

Calvin Ayre, Founder and CEO of Bodog Sports Casino Poker said, “We have focused heavily on the North American market over previous years, and seeing our explosive growth during that time, we feel that we are now prepared to move our world class services into the UK marketplace.”

He continued, “We strive to make the best possible product available to our players, and with a solid team in place now we can start to expand our business into new circles.”

2004 was a huge year for Bodog.com, receiving numerous industry accolades and awards, introducing the brand new Bodog.com Poker product, new casino offering, and being named the top US facing online gambling site in the world for traffic in 2004 by Hitwise.com. Bodog.com also flourished with the introduction of the Bodog.com Conference which was held at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino, and featured guest speaker, and Super Bowl Champion quarterback, Joe Montana.

“We are looking forward to making 2005 an even better year, not only for the company, but for those who play with Bodog.com, both now and in the future,” said Calvin Ayre. “We have a comprehensive team of professionals in place that are making Bodog.com the best name in sports gambling, casino, and poker action.
