The purchase of internet domain-names would normally be the subject of intense lawyer-filled negotiations and cutting-edge business deals, particularly for a successful gambling website such as Poker.ca. Yet one lucky winner of a private poker tournament can now boast being the domain’s new owner, having forked out a whopping $400,000 for their new title.

The purchase has also set a new record. The extravagant offer marks the highest price ever paid for a website under the .ca domain, referring to the internet country code top level domain of Canada (ccTLD). This may point to a Canadian as the new buyer, but as yet no-one can be entirely certain.

For such a high bid, the domain’s new owner is keeping mysteriously anonymous about his identity at present, fuelling speculation as to who he or she might be. Naturally winning at a private, exclusive poker tournament is usually done only by the most skilled of players, which would point to an international poker-player as a likely candidate. Our mystery-buyer is also said to be one of the world’s leading online poker affiliates, as it would naturally need to be someone with both the money and business-savvy to run such a website.

Speaking exclusively to Poker.ca in an interview, the anonymous impresario stated that they were in a “high-stakes poker match” which featured a number of the “biggest players” (although who precisely these players were we can only speculate on at this point). On making it to the game showdown, the future-owner stated that when the final hand began, he vowed he would use whatever winnings he received to buy Poker.ca. And it seems this was no idle boast, despite our player not feeling his luck at the time. He claimed to have “never dreamed” he would win the game, but he did, and, as he said, “here we are.”

Here we are indeed, as Poker.ca represents not just a wild impulse-buy but a lucrative source of income on its own right. The domain is a comprehensive website, covering many aspects of Canadian online gambling. Games available for play include poker, blackjack, roulette, slots and bingo from the site’s online casino. Aside from this, visitors to the site are also welcome to browse the extensive selection of articles available. These give players from beginner to advanced-level advice and tips on how to improve their chosen game. The site also features a calendar of upcoming tournaments, and up-to-date news coverage on many aspects of the sports and gambling world.

With a shiny new website under their belt, and (if rumour is to be believed) an extensive list of other poker-playing qualifications, the New Year is certainly looking good for Poker.ca’s new owner…Whoever they are.

Usually, when reviewing poker online sites I like to lead in with a couple of words on the software that a player is required to download before he starts playing: for the most part I give my opinion on which software is preferable, how easy it is to navigate and does it generally improve or disrupt my gaming experience.
I was surprised to find out that Sky Poker doesn’t require me to download any software: the main menu, the table and games were all accessible from the homepage, it was simply free poker.
Another special aspect that I would like to note is that every Sky-Poker player at one stage will

have their moment of glory on television. You must be wondering what I mean by that – the answer is that Sky-Poker’s gambling site is being broadcast on Sky-TV. While the broadcasting of games id delayed, it’s always nice to know that you actually save money by quitting or that you were actually bluffed into losing money and how you could have become aware of that – that gives you the option of critically reviewing you game and make improvements.
And as long as we are talking about losing money – I was surprised to find out about the fat bonuses distributed by sky to its loyal clients. Beyond that, they even give you the option of turning £0 into £150 and let new clients make the profits even if they hadn’t invested one penny.
To conclude, While I can further expand on the blogs, articles, games and clips I prefer to just warmly recommend that you go and witness a poker experience unlike anything you have seen before.
