EUROPEAN POKER TOUR
De nuevo campeón: Nacho Barbero ganó €1 millón en el EPT Montecarlo
El crack argentino, Team Pro de ACR Poker, dominó uno de los fields más difíciles del torneo y se llevó un premio de más de un millón de euros.
On the first day of the month of October we told you about PokerStars and Full Tilt returning to the United States. The news caused quite the uproar in our social networks, as in many of the international poker players’ social networks. However, it is not the only place where the news generated a buzz.
Today, thanks to an article by a digital communication media group specialized in economy, CNBC (Stock Markets, Business News, Financials, Earnings), we learnt that Amaya, the Canadian company that controls the Rational Group, owner of PokerStars and Full Tilt, has registered a 14% increase in its shares at the Nasdaq market.
Amaya also trades its stock at the Toronto Stock Exchange, in Canadá, and also saw a hike there, closing the day on the rise with +3.18%. On September 9th, their stock was worth $s22.98 and yesterday it jumped to $24.27.
No doubt, this news must have all of Amaya’s investors very happy indeed and will serve to give online poker an additional push in the States.
