Boss Media's International Poker Network to welcome Austrian online poker fans.
The transaction between the Austrian state gambling authority and Sweden's Boss Media and state-run Svenske Spel to initiate a new online poker room came to completion this week on the Boss Media network.
In starting Internet poker operations at Win2Day.com, the Austrian government becomes one of only two European governments (the other is Sweden) to offer state-sponsored poker. The project was put together in association with the Swedish state gambling monopoly Svenske Spel and Swedish casino and poker turnkey provider Boss Media.
The latest site runs on the Boss Media International Poker Network and began initiating registrations Thursday, both for real-money play and for 4 special Euro 5,000 introductory freerolls for Austrian people. Marketing actions in the form of advertising have already initiated.
Win2Day also offers lottery and casinos under a license from the state's Österreichische Lotterien GmbH. An additional state business allowed to propose gambling in Austria - Casinos Austria - is a key investor in the lottery, and is using the new website to promote its global poker venues. Boss Media is best known for Fortune Poker that does not allow USA players however.
Developments will be tracked by the online poker industry.
