From Sporting Connections to Perfecting Their Online Product, PokerStars Delivers

From Sporting Connections to Perfecting Their Online Product, PokerStars Delivers

Diversity is perhaps more important in real money online poker than most other sectors, and PokerStars - despite being an industry veteran - continues to show how to run an online poker business by both spreading the poker word and regularly seeking to maintain the quality of its offering.

PokerStars’ association with sport is well established and, in Canada, where poker is enjoying increasing popularity thanks in no small part to this veritable juggernaut, the connection between poker and sport is a healthy one.

Recently, for example, when the Toronto Maple Leafs reached the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time since 2004, PokerStars was there joining in the celebrations, once again highlighting the mutually beneficial connection.

Indeed, in the middle of Maple Leaf Square, PokerStars players and Maple Leafs fans came together, with Rebecca McAdam Willetts, PokerStars Director of Partnerships & PR, summing up the atmosphere perfectly: “PokerStars has given its players and Maple Leafs fans more reasons to get excited during the Leafs playoff run, with tickets, jerseys and other prizes given away at our activation tent in Maple Leaf Square...”

Four-player All-In Shootouts saw fans playing one hand of poker, automatically all-in, with the winner entered into a ticket draw for the next playoff home game, plus a spin of a prize wheel for a chance at the daily jackpot. McAdam: “They were the perfect combination for mixing poker with playoff hockey! We're looking forward to being part of another incredible season.”

Latest Release Notes at PokerStars.

Meanwhile, back in the PokerStars online arena, where countless fans of Texas Hold'em and Omaha cash games, the quickfire excitement of Sit & Go games and thrills and spills of online poker tournaments battle away at the tables, keeping the masses happy is a never-ending task. Yet PokerStars manages this admirably, not least thanks to their regularly monitoring and improving their product.
