PKR Launches Facebook Friendly App
New app allows players to choose a fantasy poker team Just in time for next week's World Series of Poker, 3D online poker operator, PKR has gone live with a brand new Facebook-friendly app that allows players to choose a fantasy poker team with their friends in a social networking environment. With a virtual $100 million budget, players can create a league by combining virtual teams with as many as eight players per team from a possible list of 180 names in the game. Scoring will be based on the team's final position in a series of 59 bracelet events. PKR is has added prizes into the mix including an iPad 3 to the league winner who will be announced once the Main Event's final table has been reached as well as a set of poker chips for the remaining placing players. “Fantasy sports are all the rage,” said PKR Community Manager Dan Grant, “but the online poker world is lacking its own established WSOP equivalent. While poker's biggest stars are making history in Vegas in the coming weeks, we'll be following their progress even more closely and sharing in their success. The Fantasy Poker League is our first Facebook app, and one that we hope thousands of players across the world will enjoy.” PKR currently has attracted the attention of more than 40,000 Facebook users.
