Players in the Czech market will soon be part of GGPoker’s global player base, which has games running 24/7. 

GGPoker Head of Europe Marco Trucco said: “I’m delighted to work with King’s slots to extend GGPoker access to Czech players. 

“We will have a lot to offer the market in 2023 and beyond, including WSOP satellites, massive tournaments, the most exciting cash games, exclusive promotions and more!” 

King’s Entertainment majority shareholder Leon Tsoukernik added: “We are excited about this announcement and the continued development of our partnership with GGPoker globally.  

“As the leading casino and poker venue in Europe, home of WSOPE, it was only natural for both our companies to come together to introduce GGPoker to our local audience in the Czech Republic. 

“The timing of this launch is particularly significant as King’s Casino celebrates 20 years in the market and our business continues to grow from strength to strength.” 

Once live in the region, Czech GGPoker players will be eligible for a welcome bonus as well as a Honeymoon for Newcomers promotion.  

New players will also be automatically signed up for GGPoker’s Fish Buffet loyalty programme, which offers regular cash prizes.  

King’s slots, which enters the market alongside GGPoker, is a subsidiary of King’s Entertainment – itself an arm of Vestar Group.  

King’s Entertainment operates three casinos in the Czech Republic – its partnership with GGPoker grants the latter valuable market knowledge. The casinos operated by King’s Entertainment are King’s Casino Rozvadov, Admiral Casino in Rozvadov and King’s Casino at the Hilton Hotel in Prague.
