Ex WSOP tournament director hits the ground running with DG Holdings
The marketing rights for poker software owned by international investment group DG Holdings have been awarded to Doing Poker.net in a deal signed this week following the recent arrival at DG Holdings of ex-WSOP tournament director Bob Daily .
Doing Poker.net is closely associated with the online poker and casino operator Doing Poker.com, a multi-language gaming site offering a range of games and single, multi-table and sit 'n go tournaments that claims up to 15 000 players use its facilities over peak periods each day.
Daily revealed that the Doing Poker client would be available in seven languages to start with and would offer innovative online poker products not available elsewhere. DGH is a privately-held, international investment group with offices in Europe, Asia Pacific and South East Asia. The DGH gaming division was formed more than four years ago to develop a state-of-the-art gaming platform that enables fully-integrated, on-line gaming operations.
Daily, who joined the board of directors at DGH, left WSOP organiser Harrah's last month after 11 years in various management capacities. During his tenure, he served as the 2005 WSOP Event Manager and 2006 WSOP Tournament Director, and received the prestigious 2007 Chairman's Award for his efforts.
When Daily joined DGH, a company spokesman said: "We've had our eye on the industry's 'Poker Czar' for some time. Bob is the perfect person to provide our board with the needed gaming insight and to lead our online gaming initiative into the future. With the launch of our first licensed poker site next month, we feel the timing of his appointment and this announcement could not be more perfect." |
