List Of Winners At 2014 eGaming Review Operator Awards

On November 24th, the 10th annual eGaming Review Operator Awards took place at The Roundhouse in London to honour those operators who contributed the most to the development of the online gaming industry over the past 12 months. More than 800 eGaming operators and industry professionals attended the prestigious event, and topping the bill was PokerStars, which ended up scooping two awards, namely Poker Operator of the Year and Mobile Poker Operator of the Year.
“We’re very proud to be acknowledged by eGR and the expert judging panel for our success as the leading online poker operator online and on mobile. Competition in our industry is always fierce and we’re proud to be recognized by our peers for delivering an outstanding product and service to millions of players,” commented Eric Hollreiser, Head of Corporate Communications for the Rational Group.
PokerStars is the biggest online poker operator in the world with a massive 69 million registered players, and over the years has tirelessly campaigned to bring the game to a wider audience through online and live tournaments. Some of the most recognizable poker players have made their home at the site, including Daniel Negreanu, Chris Moneymaker and Vanessa Selbst, as well as top celebrities and athletes, including Rafa Nadal and Ronaldo.
Addressing the title of 2014 Mobile Operator of the Year, Eric Hollreiser said: “Changes in player behavior have seen significant growth in the adoption of the mobile platform. A majority of PokerStars accounts are now created on mobile devices, with a larger majority in more mature markets.”
