offers all this and more, with strictest security and <strong>the</strong> protection of minors and players<br />

guaranteed.<br />

A Casinos <strong>Austria</strong> and <strong>Austria</strong>n Lotteries<br />

joint venture, <strong>the</strong> internet gaming platform<br />

win2day.at offers something for every taste: from<br />

classic casino games, specially designed <strong>the</strong>med<br />

games, Lot<strong>to</strong> and To<strong>to</strong> through <strong>to</strong> Poker. With <strong>the</strong><br />

launch of its Pokerroom on 7 February 2008 win-<br />

2day.at achieved yet ano<strong>the</strong>r first – <strong>the</strong> first all-<br />

<strong>Austria</strong>n online Poker room that not only matches<br />

its international counterparts in every way,<br />

but actually outplays <strong>the</strong>m.<br />

With Poker rooms a dime a dozen nowadays, it can<br />

be hard <strong>to</strong> tell one from <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r. And many of<br />

<strong>the</strong>m are sadly lacking in one particular aspect:<br />

entertainment value. The Pokerroom at win2day.at<br />

is different, and when it comes <strong>to</strong> entertainment<br />

value, it is quite literally ahead of <strong>the</strong> pack. All its<br />

Hold’em tables are named after <strong>Austria</strong>n <strong>to</strong>wns,<br />

mountains or rivers, and <strong>the</strong> names of many of<br />

its <strong>to</strong>urnaments are <strong>Austria</strong>n through and through<br />

– just two of <strong>the</strong> many features that set it apart.<br />

So players can set off on a virtual Poker <strong>to</strong>ur from<br />

“Kitzbühel” over <strong>the</strong> summit of <strong>the</strong> “Hochkönig”<br />

and along <strong>the</strong> banks of <strong>the</strong> “Mur” <strong>to</strong> “Graz”. The<br />

chat is kept in German, so that Poker fans can also<br />

enjoy a bit of <strong>Austria</strong>n humor along <strong>the</strong> way.<br />

As with all o<strong>the</strong>r win2day.at games, security and<br />

responsibility naturally played a key role in every<br />

stage of <strong>the</strong> Poker room’s development. Responsible<br />

gaming aspects are particularly important<br />

when it comes <strong>to</strong> online Poker sites, and <strong>the</strong> new<br />

Poker room not only had <strong>to</strong> comply with all <strong>the</strong><br />

familiar win2day.at responsible gaming features<br />

– like strict registration procedures and <strong>the</strong> compulsory<br />

setting of deposit and playing time limits<br />

– it also had <strong>to</strong> guarantee that players are protected<br />

from o<strong>the</strong>rs trying <strong>to</strong> fix matches or cheat.<br />

Security and integrity are central <strong>to</strong> all activities<br />

at win2day.at and <strong>to</strong> any new games added <strong>to</strong> its<br />

portfolio. Protection against criminal activities is a<br />

core aspect here, since it is <strong>the</strong> anonymity offered<br />

by some online gaming platforms that can attract<br />

people with dishonest intentions and encourage<br />

money laundering and cheating. Thanks <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> inbuilt<br />

tried and tested cutting edge security software<br />

and <strong>the</strong> permanent moni<strong>to</strong>ring of <strong>the</strong> site by<br />

fully-trained experts, this simply cannot happen at<br />

win2day.at. The fact that all players have <strong>to</strong> register<br />

with <strong>the</strong> site by name and <strong>the</strong> personal details<br />

provided are verified before anyone is allowed <strong>to</strong><br />

play also adds a fur<strong>the</strong>r layer of security. Anonymous<br />

con artists have no chance at win2day.at.<br />

All <strong>the</strong>se fac<strong>to</strong>rs offer clear confirmation of <strong>the</strong><br />

high standards of security in place at win2day.<br />

at, and it is <strong>the</strong>se standards that ensure <strong>the</strong> site<br />

continues <strong>to</strong> grow in popularity. In 2008, win2day.<br />

at reported sales of 945.55 million euro (2007:<br />

808 million euro) and a Poker rake of five million<br />

euro. As of 31 December 2008, <strong>the</strong> site had a <strong>to</strong>tal<br />

of 400,000 registered users. �<br />
