InterPoker.com, being a provider of never-to-be forgotten poker game experience, signed Jordan Morgan, the person known to be one of the top professional players in spite of his young age. His career appeared to be rather impetuous and fearless. Thanks to his calculating method of play, Morgan managed to get his name in professional poker and reach the top ten worldwide for online play. Besides, among poker professional players all over the world he has one of the largest online followings.

Here is what InterPoker.com spokesperson Peter Marcus says: “Jordan is one of the best players of his generation — he bets wisely, and plays very aggressively when the odds are in his favor. Jordan is the perfect addition to the InterPoker.com Extreme Team, as he is young, energetic and has a wonderful rapport with the online poker community”.

Unofficially, Jordan’s career began at the age of 18. At that time he was an engineering student at the University of Oklahoma. At the beginning all that resembled some kind of fan. Pretty soon it became clear that Jordan had some talent in playing games of strategy. So, naturally it could not but lead him to the thought that poker was somewhat like fashion and he wanted to spend more and more time on poker. More and more often Jordan left private poker games being a winner. That long lasting dominancy was noticed by his friend who offered Jordan to have an attempt of playing professional poker. During the period of two years, Morgan became well-known in poker community. His winnings went up as high as $ 50,000.

It’s unusual but Jordan Morgan’s career began online. His play can be characterized as focused and cool-headed both online and at a real table. It is proved by the fact that at the 2006 World Series of Poker blew away his rivals having won $ 100,000 in prize winnings. No doubts, it promoted him to the “team” of world class player.

Here is what Jordan says: “I am delighted to be part of one of the most respected online poker rooms in the world, especially since most of my success has come within the online world. With InterPoker, it is apparent that they truly care about providing players with a safe, exciting and, above all, genuine poker experience on the web, and I am extremely pleased to be associated with them”.

As Jordan admits, his wife Casey and his dogs, actually two English Bulldogs Bud and Zuzu, support him and his future plans to achieve the ultimate results in professional poker career, especially now - with the help of InterPoker.com Extreme Team and his fellow team member Scott Fishman.

Even such professional poker players as World Series of Poker champion Chris Ferguson, Phil Ivey and Howard Lederer, when they cannot battle it out at real tables in real casinos, play on the Internet. The thing is that they choose Full Tilt Poker whose share of the online poker market has reached an enormous share.

No one doubts that it is true. Customers should be struck by the casino’s gaming experience. Robinson and Associates, a customer service consulting firm to the gaming industry, a member of the Casino Management Association and an associate member of the National Indian Gaming Association, gives the following piece of advice: “Wow! That’s what casinos need. They need the wow factor. They should want to hear guests say, ‘Wow, this place is beautiful, the people are great and I can’t wait to come back. That’s the wow casinos are looking for. It’s not easy to do because there’s a lot of competition out there, but if casino employees provide great service, the property will end up with wow”.

Robinson & Associates, Inc., being a global customer service consulting firm for the gaming industry, helps casinos determine their Advocate Index. It is a number showing the extent to which properties have guests willing to be advocates. Then the company implements its Advocate Development System combined with the proven methodology of Advocate Index and best business practices to aid casinos to create more guest advocates and chart a course for growth and profitability.

Shannon Shorr, a college student from Alabama, started playing poker as a hobby online. Finally the hobby became a successful career for him what is proved by the fact that he reached a final table in a World Series of Poker in No Limit Circuit Events at Harrah’s Casino, in Lake Tahoe, Nevada. He is said to be the youngest player who has done it twice in the consecutive events having placed 2nd and 3rd respectively in the tournaments.

His live poker career began in Melbourne, Australia. He took the fourth place in the Aussie Millions Championship having beaten a few pros and having cashed in approximately $ 250,000. Having already been to Austria, Spain and the Bahamas, Shannon, now being 21 years old, is able to play poker legally in the USA.

The version discussed is completely different and there’s a great feeling of a real card room. Many new features added to the game have made it rather entertaining for players. With it, you are able to track the competition and win more.

One of the new features added is called “Player Notes”. It has got such a name for its players are able to keep real time track. There is an icon to be clicked and opened above each player at the table. In the screen a player can make notes about another’s style, betting patterns and speed. This window looks much like a notepad and allows players to enter any information they feel is useful to remember. For example, a player wins many hands from another competitor in a session and makes notes about their betting style throughout the night. The next time that player is online and seated at the table they will be able to open the window and recall facts noted about them in previous sessions. This new tool is very valuable over the course of extended online play.

Besides that the tool making the selection of the game faster has also been added. It makes the process more convenient by locating kinds of table and tournaments the players are interested in. Additional information used there refers to the total amount in the main pot as well as the sum all currently placed bets on the table. Here, as soon as the bets are placed into the pot, the real totals are presented. All that will provide players with a more realistic picture of their wagering process and a resource to more accurately make raises.

The organizers say: “Many times when a river card comes and the winning hand is declared new players and multi-table players are left searching to see how they have lost the pot. Now then the winning hand has been determined; the cards that make up that hand are highlighted. This allows players to see each hand won clearly and learn from and recognize a bad bet/beat sequence. In addition to this there has been an increased in the number of hands kept in ‘hand history’. The number of poker hands written to the textual hand history that is accessible from the poker table has been increased to 1,000 hands. Again providing more information to the players and allowing them to record betting patterns and results”.

Technical improvements and upgrades have also taken place. One of them is an improved access to the cashier which can be opened now by clicking on the chip tray on the poker table and deposits seamlessly. Always paying much attention to security, CelebPoker.com has got the most efficient and reliable banking system found online. One more thing that has been upgraded is connectivity. In case of any unexpected disconnection the CelbPoker.com system will try to reconnect players to the gaming system. It means that the clients will be returned into the game prior to the disconnection at once.

All that has shown one again that CelebPoker.com is a growing and successful company taking care of its improvements, services and, naturally, - clients. New, the highest quality cash games and qualifiers to the 2006 World Poker are offered weekly and daily correspondingly.
