“Appointment Poker” in Prime Time!
$1000 in Guaranteed Prize Money Offered Nightly
9 pm ET Poker Tournaments at DuplicatePoker.com
New York, NY (April 7, 2008) – Capitalizing on the trend toward "appointment" poker, DuplicatePoker.com announced today the introduction of a nightly poker tournament starting promptly at 9 pm ET guaranteed to pay out at last $1,000 in prize money to winners and in-the-money finishers. The tournament costs $33 to enter.
Player demand for higher-buy-in tournaments has led to doubling the daily guaranteed prize pot. The tournament, which takes only about two hours from start to finish, is one of the few online poker events which is convenient to millions of American poker players in all time zones.
"Players are making nightly appointments to play with each other and to play for higher stakes. It's as if the friendly Wednesday night or Thursday night game has migrated from somebody's family room to our site. Daniel Flamberg, Vice President of Marketing observed. "By doubling our nightly prize money guarantee, we now have more options for serious poker players to play better players and win more cash."
The nightly tournament consists of 4-6 sessions, depending upon the number of entries. Each session consists of 6-12 deals or somewhere between 24 and 64 hands of play.
New poker learning tool
Duplicate Poker's introduction of nightly tournaments with guarantees twice as big comes on the heels of the March introduction of a state of the art hand history log; a revolutionary poker learning tool that allows players to see, review, and study every card played in every hand recently completed.
Now players can dissect every hand, improve their skills and put this knowledge to work nightly to play more interesting games for bigger stakes.

Duplicate Poker was patterned after Duplicate Bridge, which is popular worldwide in clubs, tournaments, and online. What makes Duplicate Poker such an original concept is that it functions as the supreme test of pure poker skill. No player can ever complain about bad cards or suffering bad beats, simply because all players in the competition get dealt the same cards; hence the name "Duplicate Poker." Each player faces an identical set of circumstances, where skill not luck is the primary component.
