With so many sites to choose from with information about the 2005 World Series of Poker one site seems to be hitting on all cylinders.
http://www.pokerupdates.com is offering daily video, audio, and blogging coverage that is drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors to their site daily during the World Series.
Eric Rosenberg founder and CEO of PokerUpdates.com says "We offer real high quality updates. Our Monthly TV on the Web show is extremely popular, but we never expected the response we're
getting with our daily video coverage"
When asked what sets Poker Updates apart from the hundreds of other sites that have information Rosenberg said "We not only have a professional video crew, but with the addition of "The
Voice of Poker" Rick Charles doing hourly (or more) audio on demand updates and the nightly radio show we've now got the best quality audio coverage as well"
"The WSOP results forum and Rick's WSOP Reports in our chat forums are also drawing a lot of attention as we are a complete multimedia 'Trifecta' in WSOP Coverage."
When asked about his nightly talk show and daily blog, Charles said, "I just call it like I see it, there are so many 'journalists' out there that feel they have to kiss up to the
management, the casino, and the players, but that's not my style. I've been doing radio for 26 years now, 21 on commercial radio stations and 5 on the web, I really like the freedom of
the web, because there's nothing like a good uncensored rant now and then (smiling)". Charles also said "Having been in the poker broadcasting business since before the TV boom gives me
an inside track to the players that have been around for years. There are interviews that will be exclusive to PokerUpdates 'The Radio Show' because the players know and trust me, I was
there for them before TV bothered to pay attention, it makes a huge difference".
Nolan Dalla the Media Director for the World Series of Poker is a big fan of both Eric and Rick's work. "Pokerupdates is a fabulous site and I'm very impressed with their commitment to
quality broadcasting and their continual commitment to the sport of poker"
This trifecta may not get you a big payoff at the horse track, but if you're looking for the highest quality video, audio, and written blogs about the World Series of Poker, it's the
winning ticket.
