Titan Poker Increases Benefits to Players in Response to Industry Changes

LONDON, April 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Titanpoker.com (http://www.titanpoker.com/), the leading online poker room in Europe, is increasing the benefits it awards to its poker players as a sign of its stability in a rapidly changing industry.

New players at http://www.titanpoker.com are entitled to an improved First Deposit Bonus ( http://www.titanpoker.com/promotions/first-deposit-bonus.html) up to a maximum level of 200% up to $1,000. This bonus is released to players automatically as they play at Titan Poker's cash game and tournaments, and the redemption rate is being improved to enable players to enjoy the full benefits of this bonus as quickly as possible.

Players who have already deposited at Titan Poker will become eligible to receive a generous Reload Bonus on their next deposit this month. Full details of this offer will be provided on the poker room's website.

After the changes over the weekend, including the alleged "PokerStars shut down", Titan Poker is increasing the prizepools of many of its regularly scheduled guaranteed prize tournaments ( http://www.titanpoker.com/tournaments/schedules.html) as an additional way of demonstrating its stability and competitive offering.

A $2,000 Black Friday, White Monday freeroll tournament, open to all Titan Poker players, was announced for Monday, April 18, 2011, at 20:00 GMT+1.

The new benefits were introduced at Titan Poker as a way of welcoming new players whose online poker activities were affected by the decision of the United States government to shut down operations of certain major online poker rooms due to their illegal gambling-related activities. Titan Poker and the iPoker Network withdrew from the United States market following the passage in 2006 of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA).

New players are invited to try out the free poker download (http://www.titanpoker.com/download.html) and experience the exciting poker action at Titan Poker.
