PartyGaming, the world’s leading listed online gaming company, announces that it has entered into an exclusive arrangement with RTL interactive, a subsidiary of RTL Television in Germany and part of the RTL Group, Europe’s leading entertainment and media network.

The popularity of poker in Germany has prompted RTL interactive to launch a new German language website dedicated to providing information and tips for its users who enjoy playing the game. The RTL.de website already has over six million unique users per month.

The new RTLPoker.de website will contain exclusive advertorial links to PartyPoker.net, the world’s leading free online poker school.

RTL interactive will promote RTLPoker.de and the poker school at PartyPoker.net via the RTL.de Network and the new services will also be promoted via TV-spots on the leading privately held German TV-station, RTL Television.

PartyGaming will operate the free poker school under PartyPoker.net, including the technical and administrative infrastructure, and will provide exclusive material for RTLPoker.de.

Commenting on today’s announcement, Mitch Garber, PartyGaming’s CEO said:

“We are thrilled to have been chosen by RTL interactive to provide an online poker school to their users."

"This is a hugely exciting opportunity for us to work with the German internet division of Europe’s leading broadcaster. We look forward to building a long and successful relationship between our two companies.”
