Calling the Clock: PKR dies; New 888Poker promo; Dreyfus disrupts

In this week’s Calling The Clock, PKR calls time due to financial difficulties, 888Poker launch a new promotion aimed at ‘taking back the game,’ and Alex Dreyfus decides it’s time to disrupt.

What a week!

We will begin with a little cry as the 3D online poker operator PKR advised their customers they were closing operations and heading to the Court for Administration orders.

The news comes six months after PKR migrated to the Microgaming Poker Network (MPN) and so far the MPN has kept its powder dry on the situation only going so far as the state explicitly that they don’t have the PKR players money.
