While India is a land of over a billion people, the interest in online games such as poker and bingo has always been low key. However, the past few years has seen a sudden change and the number of Indians who are interested in online gambling has significantly increased.
Adda52 has been carefully researching the Indian market and has now gone on to official launch India’s largest online poker site at Adda52.com. This is the first ever Indian website to launch an online poker game and will feature the popular card game of Pot Limit Omaha (PLO).
The website confirmed that large cash prizes will be on offer for the first time in India and will be paid in the local currency which is the Indian rupee.
Currently, Adda52 is the only Indian site to have launched Pot Limit Omaha in cash games as well as tournaments. One of the main reasons behind this, is because Adda52 has done its research which confirmed that PLO is one of the most popular games amongst Indian poker players and is second only to Texas Hold’em poker.
Speaking about the introduction of PLO to Adda52.com, Mr. Anuj Gupta, Founder Director, Adda52.com, said ,
Adda52 was successfully offering Texas Hold’em poker, the most popular poker variant in India. But to test one’s poker skill, PLO is the right choice amongst Indian poker players. Also taking a cue from the popularity of PLO in the physical format, we decided to launch Pot Limit Omaha. The aim is to make online poker in India as enjoyable and user friendly as the physical game is. To give poker players in India a complete poker experience, it was very important to offer PLO as well.
Indian poker players who wish to try their hand at online poker can do so by visiting the website. They will be able to win real cash by taking part in this 9 card poker variation. Gupta went on to say that Adda52.com will be offering a number of online poker promotions for PLO.
He said
PLO is an immensely popular tournament poker game. Keeping that in mind, we offer various PLO promotions. Apart from cash tables of various blind levels, we also conduct tournaments for PLO. From Freerolls to Loyalty tourneys to cash buy-ins, there is a whole lot to offer on PLO.
