New Tournament Platform from MonkeyBet.com
Players looking to start their own tournaments in poker no longer have
to worry about booking a bar or club and having the police come in and
shut everything down just when the action is heating up. A new
announcement from MonkeyBet.com, a leading online poker room, casino,
and sportsbook, is good news for anyone who has wished to start their
own unique gaming experience. MonkeyBet.com recently released the first
community poker platform. Players at MonkeyBet.com can decide on all
aspects of their tourneys, including buy-ins, game type, speed of play
and other players, as well as variables.
Players can make their tournaments public or private. Private
tournaments can have their own password created by the tournament
creator, and the password can be emailed to other players along with a
URL and link to the tournament tables. Poker players can also set up
their own personal home page, which includes links to their online
tournaments and their community. The first community is already up and
running at www.hokiepoker.com, and is well attended by fans of Hokie
football and other poker players from around the globe. Details are on
the site for how to set up your own similar site.
Jeff Fuller, senior vice president of Business Development at
MonkeyBet.com said, “At MonkeyBet.com, we are trying to bring the
camaraderie of Friday night poker games between friends to the
internet.”
There are thousands of interested communities online. Any group
dedicated to a special interest can now include their own unique poker
tournaments to draw others with similar interests as well as offering
another opportunity to build the group atmosphere of their community.
MonkeyBet.com expects 1000 communities of interest sites to be created
during 2006. Fuller concluded, “We are fulfilling the promise of the
internet, by bringing like minded people from around the globe
together.”
