PKR Nominated Again at 2013 Internet Gaming Awards
December 11, 2012
Once again, PKR finds itself as a contender at the 2013 Internet Gaming Awards. The UK-based online poker powerhouse, greatly popular in the poker virtual world community, made it as a nominee of both the Online Poker Operator of the year Award and the Socially Responsible Operator of the Year Online Award.
Having already won the 2010 and 2011 titles, this is the fourth year in a row that PKR has made it on the nomination list of Online Poker Operator of the Year award. The award acknowledges the operator with the greatest progress in the online real-money-poker marketplace within the year, and the judges consider originality, usability, growth, and scale, marketing, and payment processing. The Socially Responsible Operator of the Year category considers the easy accessibility of problem gambling assistance, as well as the execution of conscientious gaming safeguards in accord with various legislation.
The IGA is now in its 6th year and boasts the leading global brick-and-mortar and online gaming segments, covering 21 categories and moderated by a select panel of elite players in the industry. This time, the Internet Gaming Awards celebrations will be held on 4th February, 2013, at The Brewery in London.
Commenting on the 2012 IGA celebration, the PKR Marketing Director, Simon Prodger, explains that the IGA is a great event to be involved with, commenting,“It’s great that our unique approach is still recognized within the industry and we’d be thrilled to win for a third time. We take pride in our responsible approach to gaming and the relationship we have with our player base, so it’s nice to be named in the Socially Responsible category. Win or not, the IGA are significant and it’s great to be involved. I’m sure it’ll be a fantastic evening in February.”
