Backgammon Growth Hits New Highs

October 24, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Reflecting the phenomenal growth that has been seen in the online backgammon industry in the past six months, backgammon server Play65 has announced a new player record with a staggering 450,000 players now registered to the provider’s online game.

Already the world’s largest online backgammon community, these new figures indicate that the server is the chosen play site for over an estimated 80 per cent of the market share.

At the same time, Play65, www.p65.com also has a further record setting 5,600 users playing online at peak hours.

“We are obviously delighted by this development in the market, and are proud to be host to a new generation of backgammon players,” observed Elad Natanson, CEO of TC.ADS, providers of Play65. “We envision a continued growth pattern for backgammon, with player number increasing at an un-paralleled rate. As the leading server, we therefore have several new games and player advantages scheduled for launch in the coming months including Swing Tournaments, an exclusive Play65 initiative styled on poker game play to increase the game options we offer our players.”

In a further development, Play65 has successfully launched its multi-currency accounts platform giving players the increased option of depositing in Euros, UK pounds and/or US dollars. “This new move is simply an extension of that" explained Natanson. “Our players come from across the globe, so the facilities to allow users to deposit and withdraw in the currency of their choice was an obvious advance for us. I believe we are the first backgammon or poker server to make this move, and will continue to search for new avenues to increase the service we offer to our players.”
