New in-play online gaming website has gone live offering players the chance to win sporting memorabilia alongside a rollover cash jackpot.
Wednesday 8th September 2010
A new online poker-style website has launched at Passoker.com offering players the chance to win a rollover cash jackpot alongside sporting memorabilia worth tens of thousands of pounds.
Passoker.com is a unique real-time gaming site in which users take part during televised sporting action or non-live programmes with Match Of The Day and Coronation Street set to be the first available.
Launched by Managing Director Stuart Carr and a team that includes former England footballer Viv Anderson following two years of development, Passoker.com sees participants placed at ten-seat ‘tables’ and awards points on ‘every occurrence of a sporting incident’ such as a goal, free-kick or throw-in for football, an ace or double fault in tennis or a six during cricket.
Passoker.com can be applied to ‘any incident or time-based sport allowing it to attract a global audience’ while real-money and slot versions of the site are scheduled to premiere later this year alongside cash games packaged for licensed bookmakers and operators.
“With so much live sport on offer, Passoker.com can be played at practically any time,” said Anderson.
“The game is brilliant fun and will appeal to sports enthusiasts and social players alike.”
“It is fantastic that, after two years of hard work, we are launching Passoker.com,” said Carr.
“It is a very social gaming experience played during live sport, a bit like the pass-the-pint pub game, and a completely innovative offering for the burgeoning in-play market.
“Prize passoker is first to launch on Passoker.com with a range of very collectable sporting memorabilia up for grabs and we will soon be going live with real-money passoker and slots passoker, which will be hosted by some of the UK’s leading bookmakers.”
