Tony G Drops PartyPoker

Tony G, the owner of many a fine
online poker enterprise and not so long ago one of PartyPoker’s in-house professional players, has decided to put an end to his relationship with the third largest online poker site in the world. The reason behind his move is as simple and clear as possible: he’s going to represent his own online sportsbook from now on.
Tony G was one of the top PartyPoker pros, the most prominent personality on a roster which also included Marvin Retttenmaier, Kara Scott and Mike Sexton. He represented the brand in various live poker events all over the world, including the
and various WPT events, as well as online. The decision to break his ties with
PartyPoker will not affect Tony G’s already announced participation in the Premier League VI, but instead of carrying a PartyPoker badge at the event, Guoga will represent his own site.
Everything seems to point to the fact that the breakup between Tony G and PartyPoker was one carried out on amiable terms. Guoga has said in the wake of his decision that he would like to thank the operator for the 10 years of cooperation and that he would remain loyal to the brand through his affiliate operations (which are indeed true heavy-hitters in the industry).
Tony G’s site has been founded in 2009 and his partnership with PartyPoker was signed in 2010. According to Guoga, his sportsbook saw massive growth during the last 18 months and it is gathering additional momentum every day. He said that sports betting has always been a passion of his and that he’s willing to wager on pretty much everything. His site apparently offers some pretty outstanding prices, and Guoga won’t spare any effort trying to convince people that it is indeed the best sports betting destination out there.
