I have to say that I don’t understand why people think naming an online casino “celeb” or “celebrity” is a draw. When playing at an online casino it’s not like a celebrity is going to show up and hang out with you.  Still, online casinos and other businesses continue to focus on it and CelebPoker is one of the most notable.  Their latest move sees them stepping into the ring with the big boys.

Playtech’s iPoker network platform, which includes the likes of William Hill and Titan Poker, has just added CelebPoker to their already impressive list of online casinos. CelebPoker has a sharp new look and a stellar 3-D graphic interface and offers their players a slew of tournaments, ring games, promotions and prize pools.

CelebPoker already has a pretty solid following, with as many as 40,000 players frequenting their online casino annually. To bring in even more players, they are hosting a tournament with a $10,000 freeroll on September 17 open to users new and old.

“The move to Playtech’s iPoker Network has provided us with the scope to take CelebPoker to the next level. Our players can now enjoy even more exciting games and a wider range of tournaments as part of the world’s biggest poker network,” said CelebPoker CEO David Donovan.

“iPoker’s inspiring innovation and powerful collusion prevention system ensures an exciting, fair and secure gaming environment for all players and one which rivals, and exceeds, any other poker site on the internet. These are very exciting times for the company.”
