WPT Brand Bought By PartyGaming
Posted on: November 18th, 2009 8:27 pm | By: helenBig things are finally in the works for the online casino powerhouse company PartyGaming. Although the company has been inundated with financial woes and legal battles over the course of the last couple of years, they are doing their best to put the scandals behind them to move forward in new and exciting directions. It takes an awful lot of ingenuity and pluck to make a real name for yourself among all of the different operators of online casinos that are out there on the market today, and PartyGaming has never been known to be a slouch in this particular aspect of the business. Their latest business venture has been to acquire the World Poker Tour Enterprises Inc.
This was a huge development that captured the attention of many big movers and shakers in the world of online casinos. The World Poker Tour is a huge brand name in this business. Many internet casino fans look forward to this fabulous and super entertaining competition for months ahead. The sale set the gambling company back by about $12.3 million. That is not including an additional aggregate payment that amounts to $3 million that will be paid out over the course of the coming three years.
That is all part of a special rev share agreement that was reached between the two parties in this deal. This business deal serves to bring together two of the biggest and most widely recognized names in the online casino gambling industry. With these two forces combined into one intense effort, there is no telling how powerfully and how swiftly they could come through to dominate on a major level.
