Duplicate Poker Closes it's doors

[Fonzi]

Duplicate is sadly bidding farewell to its players. Caught in the middle of the global financial situation the company is not able to continue to provide service. We are a small victim of the global financial crisis.

Regretfully as of the today, October 5th, 2008 we are closing our service. We thank our players for being with us. Hopefully at later time and in a better economic climate Duplicate Poker will re-appear.

Sincerely,

The Duplicate Poker Team

Just two weeks ago that DuplicatePoker.com claimed it was a thriving online poker room operating from - of all places - New York City. In fact, they announced their milestone 250,000th player.

"DuplicatePoker.com has quickly gained global appeal and poker players at all levels are playing this new game and developing new strategies for winning," says Pinhas Romik, founder and CEO of Duplicate Poker. "Our revenues have increased six-fold since the public launch and we expect the game's popularity to continue its upward trajectory."

We never promote Duplicate Poker here at Holdem Poker Chat. We only promote quality poker sites. If you're looking for a good placce to play, check out our Online Poker Sites page.

Can I call BS on that?

Since every decent pokersite doesnt use players money for operating expenses all players should get their money back, unless Duplicate was shady to begin with...

I called BS on it when the site first launched.
