Harrah's License Company LLC, an affiliate of Harrah's Entertainment, has announced that PartyPoker.net has renewed its product-placement agreement for the 38th annual World Series of Poker (WSOP) tourney.
As part of the agreement, PartyPoker.net will be integrated into several facets of the WSOP for the second year running, including its logo appearing on all poker tables during the event.
“We’re pleased to announce that PartyPoker.net has renewed its product-placement deal,” said WSOP commissioner Jeffrey Pollack. “It is one of a fantastic group of commercial companies we welcome back to the team.”
With a total gross prize pool of more than $171 million and in excess of 48,000 player registrations, the 2006 World Series of Poker shattered every participation and prize money record for a live poker event.
The top prize for the prestigious $10,000 buy-in No-Limit Texas Hold'em World Championship Main Event, reached a huge $12 million and was won by a relative newcomer to the poker world, Jamie Gold.
