WSOP and New York Rangers Sign Partnership
Caesar Interactive's online gaming site, wsop is one of the leaders in the online gambling markets in Nevada and New Jersey. The website is currently second to partypoker, a partnership between the Borgata and Party Poker. Caesars has taken a major step to secure its brand in the Silver State and outpace its competition in New Jersey. It has signed a partnership with the New York Rangers to help promote the WSOP brand.
wsop referenced the possibility of a partnership on its site late last week. A source from the World Series of Poker recently confirmed that the partnership has been finalized. Both companies are looking forward to working together.
Caesars Interactive is still releasing details about the new partnership. The company recently confirmed that it will be launching the "wsop Rangers Homecoming Sweepstakes" to celebrate the deal. Players will have the opportunity to win one of four prestigious Rangers prizes until April 5. The combined value of the prizes is an estimated $15,000. Players will need to use a promotional code when making a deposit to be eligible for any of the prizes.
President of MSG Sports, Dave Howard said that his company is ecstatic about the new partnership. Howard said that WSOP is an industry leader and feels it will be an honor to work with them. Both companies look forward to sharing great prizes with their respective customers.
Caesars is the second company to form a partnership with a professional sports team. Party Poker signed deals with the Philadelphia 76ers and New Jersey Devils. Caesars hopes that the new partnership will help them gain a competitive edge over Party Poker.
