Huge News from the 888Poker League

[Garth Kay]

The team at Full House Group, owners of the 888Poker League are thrilled to announce that as of today, we are the proud owners of the Australian Poker League.

As you know we have been in discussions for a number of weeks to take over the management rights but during the process it became obvious that an outright purchase would better serve both parties.

As you can imagine there are plenty of details to work through and this has caused some delays in our ability to announce the structure for 888PL for Season 3 and 4. We are working through all the finer details as quickly as possible and will be in a position to announce the new combined structure next week.

What we can tell you:

- Both the 888PL and APL brands will remain in the market, we can’t wait to create some friendly rivalry amongst our players at major events
- Speaking of major events we will be running combined State Champs and everyone will be playing for a seat in the newest major poker tournament on Australia; The Main Event
- The Main Event will run twice a year commencing next Feb and will be a HUGE event on the Australian poker calendar.

The team would like to thank our players and venues for their continued support of our poker business. Without your commitment to our league we would never have been in this position.

There are so many other exciting developments as two of the biggest brands in the Australian poker market come together so watch this space and keep up to date with our posts on Facebook.
