PKR Signs Up 4 Millionth Player
This was published 07-11-2010Next generation poker site PKR.com reached a very significant milestone last week when it signed up its 4 millionth member making it one of the most popular online poker rooms available in the United Kingdom.
PKR.com was launched in August 2006 and despite having extended their services over the years to include live events and raising the bar for online poker graphics that resulted in every growing demand, the site has always been able to provide its customers with high quality entertainment and superior customer service.
Yet another highlight of PKR.com was the launch of its French site PKR.FR a few months ago as well as the release of its biggest software updates since its’ launch.
Simon Prodger, Marketing Director for PKR.com stated that this is a great accomplishment for them and a real achievement especially in view of the fact that they do not take players from the USA. He added that it has been a great year for PKR.com and they look forward to celebrating many more milestones in the future.
The London Calling Poker Festival Main Event started on Thursday 4th November and was held at the Fox Poker Club in London’s Shaftesbury Avenue, in association with PKR. Buy-in to the two day main events was £300 + £25 entrance fee. Amongst those who booked their seats to the event was Scott Shelley, the recent WSOPE bracelet winner and former PKR employee, turned PKR Pro and Hendon Mob’s Barney Boatman.
On 12th November PKR will return to the Fox Poker Club for the beginning of PKR Live V which is a two day main event that starts on 13th November. The event officially kicks off on Friday 12th with a PKR Live Drinks Reception.
In order to enter the PKR Live V main event, players are required to qualify online at PKR. Satellites start from as little as under $5.
