Celebrities Help to Create Winning Poker Brand

It appears that the joys of celebrity culture are well and truly entrenched in the poker world. A group of journalists, known as Business Britain, have awarded CelebPoker.com the coveted �Online Gaming Company of the Year� award for 2005/6. The writers praised the fact that the site not only offers players the chance to take on a number of big names for big prizes, but also for its packages of promotions, freerolls and tournaments that keep new players interested and old players coming back.

So as well as playing the likes of Traci Bingham and former boy band star turned poker lover Nick Carter, users get a 50% welcome bonus, a $1,000 freeroll, daily $15,000 tournaments, a poker school and the chance to win a WSOP seat for $7. Journalists are already saying the site will make the top five online casinos by Christmas. The world of celebrity seems to be doing no harm in bringing more poker players to the virtual table.
