Duplicate Poker, one of the Internet's fastest growing online poker rooms, announced Sunday that it has officially shut down operations. The online poker room was launched in 2007 as a viable means of legal online poker for US customers and players around the world, but a financial crisis has put an end to Duplicate Poker’s fast-floundered success.
Duplicate Poker was named for its innovative skill-based online poker idea that would change the way players looked at the "luck factor" in a poker game. For example, should a 20-table tournament occur, all tables would deal identical cards to the respective seating positions of each table. Therefore, it is the skill factor that decides which players make a profit, not simply the luck of seating arrangements.
This added element gave Duplicate Poker something other online poker rooms have struggled to achieve - legal internet poker for US players.
Unfortunately, when visiting the Duplicate Poker web site - www.duplicatepoker.com - you are no longer met with a warm welcome and encouraging bonus offers, but instead a short and sweet farewell.
“Dear players,
Duplicate is sadly bidding farewell to its players. Caught in the middle of the global financial situation the company is not able to continue to provide service. We are a small victim of the global financial crisis.”
The Duplicate Poker Team explains that it will no longer provide service as of Sunday, October 5th, 2008; thanking its many members for their patronage. The online poker room even left a glimmer of hope by concluding with the following message: “Hopefully at later time and in a better economic climate Duplicate Poker will re-appear.”
Members of Duplicate Poker.net are encouraged to email customer support with any questions they may have.
