The Online Poker Site Has Expanded to Include Russian and Chinese

LONDON, Nov. 14 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- BowmansPoker.com (

http://www.bowmanspoker.com ) is poised to take the East by storm, as it

launches its sexy online poker brand in both Russian and Chinese.

In anticipation of significant future growth and marketing efforts in

Eastern Europe and Asia, BowmansPoker.com has expanded its site to include

both Russian and Chinese-language versions. This exciting development means

that players in two of the world's largest potential markets for online

gaming can now enjoy all the fast-paced action at BowmansPoker.com in their

own language.

Customers from these markets will now also be able to make instant

payment transfers at BowmansPoker.com via its new partner, WebMoney -- a

global transfer system which has been providing secure, instant payment

transfers since 1998. With nearly 2.5 million registered users across 37

countries, WebMoney is the perfect payment provider for BowmanPoker.com's new

local language sites: not only is it already popular in China, but the system

also offers WebMoney units for currencies including Russian Roubles and

Ukrainian Hryvnias.

The introduction of a Chinese version of BowmansPoker.com is sure to be

welcomed by its already sizable Chinese customer base. "By launching a local

language site we're giving existing players more value, while also

encouraging new players from Chinese-speaking markets across Asia," said Ben

Lukas, Head of Poker of BowmansPoker.com.

Making the Bowmans Poker room more accessible and attractive to Russian-

speaking customers was another natural progression for Bowmans, following hot

on the heels of the formation of a Poker Players Association in Ukraine and

the successful launch of a bricks-and-mortar Bowmans Pokerclub in Lviv,

Western Ukraine.

Boasting full online facilities and a growing membership, the Lviv

Pokerclub promises to be an important foothold for BowmansPoker.com as it

continues its strategic expansion into the fast-growing Eastern European and

Chinese markets.
