PokerNews taps Spanish and Estonian players

After the recent launch of PokerNewsCasino (http://casino.pokernews.com), PokerNewsSportsbetting (http://sportsbetting.pokernews.com), PokerNewsBingo (http://bingo.pokernews.com) and PokerNewsBackgammon (http://backgammon.pokernews.com), PokerNews Ltd has taken a step further in reaching out globally. It has now launched websites in the two fast growing markets of Spain and Estonia. PokerNews Spain (http://es.pokernews.com) and PokerNews Estonia (http://ee.pokernews.com) are now available and fully geared to offer the latest happenings on poker from around the world. Besides this, these sites will close language barriers by offering special promotions and information to the people of Spain and Estonia in their respective languages.

The CEO of PokerNews, Damon Rasheed, says he is simply delighted with the developments as both markets show much potential and interest in poker. PokerNews Estonia took off in flying colors as co-editor Marek Kolk recently won the 888 UK Poker Open and pocketed $250,000 of prize money. Marek is now hoping that he can contribute through PokerNews Estonia as well and reach out to a wider audience. He stated that with only one casino in Estonia offering cash games, the need for an online gaming environment was much needed for the growth of poker in Estonia. He added that with the support of the Poker News network, local Estonian players could have access to exclusive freerolls of some of the biggest tournaments such as the Aussie Millions, the WSOP and others. For most Estonians this would be a dream come true. With current native language sites in the USA, UK, Germany, France, Holland, Italy, Russia, Sweden, Poland, Australia, China, Portugal, Japan and Norway; addition of Estonia and Spain now brings the number of countries with a dedicated PokerNews website to sixteen. PokerNews.com (http://www.pokernews.com) is incorporated by PokerNews Ltd and has also been selected by Forbes as "Best of Web" for the Poker category
