Online poker networks Tribeca Tables and Tain have agreed on a merger that will see all Tain poker players and brands, including poker customers from its parent company Expekt, migrating to the Tribeca platform.
The agreement, which is for Tain’s poker sites only, will see the company join the growing list of high profile names at the Tribeca network, which includes among others Paddy Power, Golden Palace and Victor Chandler. Tain's parent company Expekt will continue to operate its European-focused sportsbook and casino platforms.
Steve Cook, European managing director at Tribeca, commented, “We have been working for some time to reach into the lucrative Scandinavian poker markets, and we are very pleased to complete a significant deal with Tain.”
Cook continued to explain that Tain’s poker partners would now be in a position to take advantage of the higher liquidity that both companies consider as the critical component to offer long term competitive online poker.
Erik Ahlberg, chief executive of Tain, said, “This manifests a natural next step in our effort of building a world class poker offering. We will now be able to welcome our customers into one of the strongest networks in the world, positioned to lead the coming phase of consolidation.”
