Dusk Till Dawn announces iPoker launch
UK live poker venue will continue to operate second online room on International Poker Network until June.
Dusk Till Dawn (DTD), the largest land-based poker club in the United Kingdom, has announced plans to launch a skin on Playtech’s iPoker network this week.
The Nottingham venue currently has an online offering on Spielo G2’s International Poker Network, which will continue to run alongside the iPoker room until June according to comments made by a DTD representative on the Blonde Poker forum.
The launch will be accompanied by a number of exclusive satellites for live events such as the Dusk Till Dawn Grand Prix, which last year broke the record for the largest ever field in a European land-based poker tournament.
DTD joined the IPN in 2010, agreeing a three-year deal which is poised to expire in June. iPoker currently ranks fourth for cash game traffic worldwide and has the best traffic of any network, while the IPN’s dot.com network ranks 25th overall.
Recent operators to join include Betfair and Betclic Everest, both of whom sit on the top tier following last year’s implementation of new network rules by Playtech. The DTD representative suggested it has not yet been decided which tier its skin will sit on, saying: “It depends on how we fit with the network.”
