New "Distributed Poker" system provides licensees seamless mobility
Canadian online gambling software developer CryptoLogic Inc. has announced the completion of a major upgrade to its poker platform.
The company's new "Distributed Poker" system provides licensees seamless mobility to locate their shared online poker room in markets that offer the best growth opportunities, without any interruption to games or players.
The enhancements have also more than tripled the capacity of the network to accommodate over 50 000 simultaneous online players, allow for near-perfect network uptime, and will enable "live", seamless updates of new features and games-without any interruption to the room.
"Distributed Poker gives our group of poker customers the ability to select the most attractive markets for their shared room, both today and in the future. This is a critical advantage as operators prepare for regulation of the UK market and as new opportunities present themselves around the world," said Lewis Rose, CryptoLogic's President and CEO.
According to Michael Starzynski, CryptoLogic's Chief Technology Officer, "CryptoLogic is one of the top five revenue-generating poker rooms on the Internet thanks to consistent game innovation and network enhancements like Distributed Poker. This new platform infrastructure improves the gaming experience for players and licensees through market-leading flexibility, scalability and resilience."
CryptoLogic's wholly-owned subsidiary, WagerLogic Limited, is responsible for licensing the CryptoLogic-developed Internet poker room. Recently, the room has offered new features like Lightning ( ring games and Thunder Tournaments, which give players the faster games they want,) and SIXPAK (for "final table" action in every hand.) With Distributed Poker, exciting new games and features like these can be introduced to the shared poker room "live", without disruption to games or players.
"Distributed Poker represents a state-of-the-art platform for CryptoLogic to continue its strong market position in online poker and execute its strategy of game innovation that satisfies the heart of the online player," noted A.J. Slivinski, WagerLogic's Managing Director.
WagerLogic's Internet poker licensees include interpoker.com, williamhillpoker.com, littlewoodspoker.com, ukbettingpoker.co.uk, pokerplex.com, classicpoker.com, sunpoker.com, totalbetpoker.co.uk and an upcoming new Playboy poker site.
