WELCOME TO THE ALL NEW WORLD AT PARTYPOKER.COM!
Gibraltar – 26th September 2008 — PartyPoker.com is delighted to announce that they have launched an all new fantastic version of its popular online poker site http://www.partypoker.com! Make no mistake, this is no botox - general anaesthetic was needed as despite all the improvements we’ve made over the years we decided on major surgery – it is a complete facelift! Thousands of work hours have gone into the ‘new’ PartyPoker.com and it is well worth checking out. On Monday, details of great new promotions to mark this online poker landmark will be released. Already, PartyPoker.com is offering a new bonus of 100% up to $500.
The next generation of PartyPoker.com enables players to find tables quicker, provides them with more ergonomic and personalised tables, allows access to more poker action through refinements to multi-tabling and offers easier accessibility to account information. For players who want to keep the old table design there is an option to do this.
John O’Malia, Managing Director of PartyGaming Plc, said: “The first phase of the next generation of PartyPoker.com has been 10 months in the making and is a great example of operational excellence by teams of people dedicated to returning us to pole position in the market. Players who have tested the new features are delighted with the changes, and preparations for the next phase of the roll out are well advanced.”
Andreas Hartmann, Director of Product for PartyGaming Plc, said: “The whole focus of the redesign was to help the online player succeed. We’re delighted with the redesigned table and big improvements have been made in how easy and quick it is to get into a game. There are new lobby views and game play ergonomics have been taken on board as the main driver for the improvements. The new PartyPoker.com will also have an integrated experience with significantly less pop-ups. We’ve also taken a new approach to multi-tabling and are pleased with what we have achieved in phase one of the new PartyPoker.com.
