Exciting things are happening at Card Player these days. We're growing by leaps and bounds. Now, each month, our combined circulation is more than 500,000 magazines. We recently began publishing Card Player College. Card Player Europe is getting stronger each issue. And, after our success as the official content provider of the 36th-annual World Series of Poker, more than a million people a month visit us at CardPlayer.com. At one point during the Series, more than 350,000 people a day were checking out our live updates and real-time final-table audio stream!
I am proud to announce that some of poker's most successful players and top Hollywood talent have taken notice of our success by investing in "The Poker Authority." Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, Todd Brunson, Jennifer Harman, and Thomas Keller, along with Hollywood stars Laura Prepon, Danny Masterson, and Chris Masterson have all purchased a stake in Card Player Media, LLC.
This talented group brings significant poker and media expertise that will be invaluable as we continue to grow the Card Player brand. The players will help us provide the most accurate, timely, and on-point poker information, while the entertainers will help keep Card Player at the cutting edge of all the new and exciting ways to deliver content. I look forward to working with these strategic business and media advisors to help Card Player expand its reach into new and exciting markets and applications. Thanks for rallying behind the world's leading poker media organization.
For the past 18 years, Card Player has remained the go-to source for everything poker, and with this star-studded group, I promise you that great things are on the horizon.
