CryptoLogic-developed software
Norway's Haakon Waerstad is an online poker player at Betfair.com
LAS VEGAS, NV, July 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Going into Monday's action,
the leader at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) - the game's premier event - was
an Internet poker player who honed his skills using software developed by
CryptoLogic, a leading software developer for the global Internet gaming
market.
Haakon Waerstad of Oslo, Norway, was the chip leader going into today's action
in Las Vegas. Waerstad had an impressive chip count of $169,200, a lead of
almost $13,000 over his closest competitor. He led an impressive list that
includes a record number of Internet poker players competing at this year's
WSOP.
Waerstad qualified for the tournament through Betfair.com, a leading poker site
that uses software developed by CryptoLogic and licensed by WagerLogic, the
company's software licensing subsidiary. Of the 102 players who qualified
online at WagerLogic licensees' sites, 35 were still in the tournament this
morning.
"For an Internet poker player, leading the World Series of Poker is the dream
of a lifetime," said Andy Goetsch, CryptoLogic's Vice President of Poker
Software Development, himself a world-class player. "For CryptoLogic, this is
an exciting validation of our investment in our Internet poker software.
Whether it's playing for fun or playing for real, players like Haakon Waerstad
know that CryptoLogic software delivers the game you want, when you want it."
Betfair launched its Internet poker site in 2004, following an agreement with
WagerLogic. Since then, Betfair has become one of the world's most popular
Internet poker sites.
"At the World Series of Poker, you need the right cards, but you also need the
right experience," said A.J. Slivinski, WagerLogic's Managing Director. "It's
clear that our software enables customers like Betfair to offer both the
entertainment and the experience that turns Internet poker players into some of
the best competitors in the world."
