One increasingly popular online gambling site is celebrating its fourth birthday this week, with PKR.com acknowledging the fact that they’ve been in the biz – rather successfully – since their launch in 2006, bringing literally a new dimension to game play in the internet casino world. Based out of the UK, PKR.com was one of the first three dimensional online gambling websites, and one of even fewer to specialize in just internet poker, with the last four years building upon their strong base of amazing graphics and innovative software offerings.

The time has been spent rather well, with PKR.com accumulating more than 3,750,000 players on the online casino, with as many as 15,850 players able to log on a play simultaneously. Their freeroll tournaments tend to be particularly popular, as in the last four years, PKR.com has managed to give away $2,925,816.31 in prizes.

But the site isn’t just popular with the players; they have also gained quite the positive reputation with others in the internet gambling industry through their achievements and innovations, including the Online Poker Operator of the Year Award in 2009, as well as Poker Operator of the Year 2009 from the eGaming Review Awards. Other accolades have come in regarding their bi-annual live poker event titled PKR Live, as well as developed a Poker team hosting all of the best online gambling players that frequent the site. They’ve launched a magazine, a television show and earned themselves an exclusive contract to sponsor the first live poker venue in London.

“We’re very proud of our achievements to date,” said Simon Prodger, the marketing director for PKR.com. “We came against a lot of pessimism for being so innovative when we launched, but our customers have shown that they enjoy playing in our true-to-life environment and really appreciate the community feel.”
