Betsafe Poker Moves and Playboy Poker Folds

Ongame Network has signed a partnership agreement with former CryptoLogic network online poker room Betsafe Poker. Betsafe, which was launched in January 2006 and has over 150,000 customers in 100 countries, will move to the BWin subsidiary, Ongame, before the end of March 2009.

The move comes as Cryptologic continues its strategic restructuring which will see it outsource is poker network to International Poker Network and re-focus on online casino products.

Henrik Persson, CEO of Betsafe said,”We looked into many options but when the possibility with Ongame Network arose, it was an easy choice. Ongame Network has a great selection of tournaments, promotions and is a leading innovative poker software supplier. We are now in a position to offer a world class poker product.”

Elsewhere Playboy Poker is shutting up shop on January 29 according to a number of online sources though no public statement has yet been made by the site.
