World-renowned poker professional Maria Ho has signed on as the first PokerGO Play ambassador and will help usher in the game’s launch. She will also be a playable avatar in the game, along with other celebrity avatars.
“PokerGO’s extensive experience in poker entertainment combined with the cutting-edge Web3 development at Gala Games is a perfect marriage,” said Richard Blankenship, Chief Revenue Officer of PokerGO. “Together, we have been able to build a superior social poker game that players everywhere will love.”
“Partnering with PokerGO, the leader in poker entertainment, we were able to develop a social poker game that is unlike anything available today, and players will soon realize the heightened entertainment that comes with playing poker in an immersive Web3 environment,” said Eric Schiermeyer, Founder of Gala Games.
As part of the partnership, PokerGO Play becomes a top-tier sponsor of PokerGO and will receive premier marketing opportunities across the company’s vast portfolio of content that includes the World Series of Poker and PokerGO-owned tournaments as part of the PokerGO Tour such as the Super High Roller Bowl, Poker Masters, and PokerGO Cup. PokerGO Genesis NFT holders will receive beneficial status within the game, and the two sides plan to host special events inside the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas.
