Funtime Canadian Poker Site

Funtime Hospitality Corp are preparing for the 26th September launch of new Canadian website, Check n Raise Poker.com. The site has been in development for seven months, and company executives are promising that the site will be a new and original experience for online poker players.

In their latest press release Check n Raise Poker NV, the wholly owned subsidiary company of Funtime Hospitality Corporation, have been emphasising the fact that the months of development have been spent ensuring that the new site will break the mould on poker sites. Instead of buying in software from a second party, the Netherlands based Check n Raise Poker, has been working on its own software for the site. The company has been keen that the site should not be developed simply as a derivative site of another already existing poker room, but instead be a new and unusual separate entity.

One of the directors of Funtime Bob Ciaffone. A previous finalist of the World Series of Poker and writer on all things poker, has been utilised as an adviser for the site, to help engineer this stand alone strategy. Check n Raise Poker believe they will differentiate themselves in the market place by aiming for difference and individuality. It will be interesting to see once the site is unveiled exactly where this difference will lie.
