US Legal Online Poker Room Closes: Farewell To Duplicate Poker
October 6, 2008
The online poker room, Duplicate Poker, whose rapid growth astounded the online gambling industry, closed its virtual doors this weekend. Established only a year ago, Duplicate Poker had attracted a large player base in such a short time, especially from the US market.
Duplicate Poker provided legal online poker to US customers by putting emphasis on the effects of skill versus luck at the poker tables. As the name implies, there could be ten poker tables played at once, all dealing duplicate hands to the participants. It is the players with the most experience and skill who can take what might have been a losing hand, if left up to luck alone, and turn it around to win the hand.
Now, when you traverse the web over to www.duplicatepoker.com, you are met only with a single, white backdrop page, telling the online poker room’s short, sad tale of demise.
“Dear players,
Duplicate is sadly bidding farewell to its players. Caught in the middle of the global financial situation the company is not able to continue to provide service. We are a small victim of the global financial crisis.”
The message from the Duplicate Poker Team went on to date its closure as of October 5th, 2008. The online poker room gave thanks to all of its members and closed with this optimistic statement: “Hopefully at later time and in a better economic climate Duplicate Poker will re-appear.”
Members of the ex-online poker room with any questions are asked to contact Duplicate Poker’s Customer Support via the following address: Customercare@duplicatepoker.com
