Top ranking poker site เเทงหวยออนไลน์ is celebrating as it will become the first web-based firm to join the FTSE 100 Index, ever since the dotcom boom began. PartyGaming floated on the London market, in the month of June and was on for the promotion, although it had lost more than 2 billion pounds of its value, on Tuesday. It will be replacing Hays, the recruitment firm after the quarterly reshuffle of the Footsie. Oil and gas group Cairn Energy has been reinstated to top flight after a six month absence. The net worth of PartyGaming was 4.2 billion pounds as per Tuesday’s closing prices and this determines the changes to the membership of the Footsie. This elevation came barely 24 hours after PartyGaming’s shares had dipped down by one third. The downswing has occurred owing to a predicted slump in the online gaming arena. Edinburgh-based Cairn Energy was pushed up and promoted after its share value shot up, its worth now going on to more than 2.8 billion pounds. News.Scotsman.com reports:
A relative minnow in the oil and gas sector just two years ago, Cairn is now worth more than 2.8 billion pounds. In addition to PartyGaming joining the top flight companies that recently listed on the London Stock Exchange also accounted for major movements in the lower tiers.
Budweiser Hangs its Crown in the Arena of WPT
The self-proclaimed “King of Beers” Budweiser, makes its presence in the field of World Poker Tour (WPT). Budweiser’s brewer, Anheuser-Busch gives local players a chance to get a free entry into WPT. Starting this December and going on till February next year, players will get a chance to win and compete in a national showdown. Two top ranking players will find a seat to the WPT’s Celebrity Pro-Am Invitational Tournament. Winners will rub shoulders with more than 300 players, to win a prize pool of $200,000. Poker is an exceedingly popular sport and the Budweiser logo will cash in on this. It will be seen on the featured table ring and the player’s hole cards. Anheuser-Busch also intends to show television sports advertising Budweiser as it is telecast on the Travel Channel. Corporate promotions and advertising, heavily depend upon sporting events. It is amply clear to Anheuser-Busch that it will be able to reach a tremendously large group of people by endorsing poker related events.
During the last few seasons, the winner of each featured tournament was toasted with Anheuser-Busch’s Michelob Amber Bock. Anheuser-Bosch brews 30 beers and the WPT is seen in more than 100 countries and territories around the world.
