Online poker operator PokerMatch which is planning on organising a live series of games in Ukraine, conducting the event like a sports tournament, secured a license from the Gambling and Lotteries Regulation Commission in Ukraine to offer its services to players in the East European country.
PokerMatch’s CEO Victor Kyrychenko, commented on the move: “The license is a big and important step for the entire company. PokerMatch will continue to popularise and develop sports poker in Ukraine and make players happy. Now there are great resources and platforms to bring people together according to their interests. Social networks, forums, meetings with players in a ‘live’ format – all this strengthens the trust users have in the company and, of course, gives the necessary feedback on the implemented projects and ideas for future plans,” he added.
A PokerMatch spokesperson added: “We want to take a leading position in the Ukrainian market in the first year after legalisation. We are sure that with our arsenal of marketing tools, experience and understanding of poker player psychology, we will succeed. We will popularise sports poker, encouraging more and more Ukrainians to enter the world of this beautiful game.”
