HEADLINE:
ONLINE POKER ROOM INTERPOKER
AND TALKSPORT TEAM UP
Body:
TalkSport is to host InterPoker’s new poker program, part
of its ongoing offline marketing campaign. The program went live
on Mike Dickin’s show at 10 pm program on January 20, targeting
Talksport’s 2.2 million listeners.
Recent research carried out by Online Gambler Magazine and InterCasino
indicated that poker players are always on the look out for new
poker tips and that there is a demand for discussion on poker
related issues. This series of features has been designed with
this in mind. In addition to interviews with leading poker players,
hot tips on how to play and a guide to poker terms the program
includes a live phone-in where listeners can ask the experts for
advice.
“We have run a number of poker competitions and advertorials
in the past but given the recent change in regulations and the
increasingly popularity of poker we felt the time was right to
provide our listeners with more detailed information and access
to the experts for answers to questions. We are pleased to have
teamed up with InterPoker, part of InterCasino one of the oldest
online gaming companies to offer this,” said Laura Botton,
TalkSport.
Each show will include a focus on a different topic. The first
few are ‘tricks of the trade’, ‘celebrity’
poker, ‘new to poker’ and ‘woman in poker’
with insights from the American market on what is happening across
the Atlantic.
Alongside the campaign InterPoker is running a weekly competition
inviting listeners to win a laptop and complete home poker sets.
InterPoker
spokesperson Peter Marcus said “As one of the oldest casinos
we pride ourselves on our innovation and on bringing players what
they want. The poker phenomenon is continuing and our recent research
shows that players and would-be players are wanting more information
and advice on how to play. The aim of this radio feature and live
phone-in, one of the first’s for radio, is to provide this.”
