Boss Media delivers poker systems to Ålands Penningautomatförening (PAF)
Boss Media has signed an agreement with Ålands Penningautomatförening (PAF) covering delivery of poker systems. Established in 1966, PAF is an association governed by public law whose goal is to raise funds for public benefit through offering cash gaming to the public. PAF conducts gaming with cash prizes on Åland, onboard ships, via the Internet and via mobile telephones.
Boss Media will deliver a downloadable poker system in five language versions: Swedish, Finnish, English, German and Spanish. During the latter part of the year, Boss Media will also deliver a web-based poker system.
The poker product will be linked to Boss Media’s partner-based poker network. Players at PAF will be able to log in and play poker games with their existing playing account.
“We are pleased to be able to initiate cooperation with Boss Media. Our strength is being able to arrange poker tournaments on ships and on Åland, in which qualifying is often through satellite tournaments with small stakes via our gaming service on the Internet. At last week’s large tournament “PAF Poker Challenge” in Mariehamn, more than half the players had qualified via the Internet. Through the cooperation with Boss Media, we hope to reach new segments and create more entertainment for our players,” says Stefan Pettersson, Director of PAF.
”Participating in satellite tournaments via Internet to qualify for live poker tournaments has become a huge success among poker players,” says Johan Berg, President of Boss Media. ”With PAF’s unique gaming operator experience and the possibilities to arrange attractive tournament offerings, we are convinced that together we will attract new players on the international gaming markets.”
