The largest media sponsorship in GWIN history

By Joni Hawk, Jan 23rd 2007
ThePIGPoker.net, the world's most user-friendly play for fun online poker site, has decided to be a title sponsor of GWIN's television and radio shows (America's only publicly traded sports handicapping company).

For GWIN, this commitment (signed on June 28, 2006) is the largest media sponsorship in its history. ThePIGPoker.net is owned by Legendzsports, one of the largest private gaming companies in the world, being a rather new approach in the lucrative world of poker.

The deal includes the sponsorship of the poker sections of its Web sites winningedge.com and ewinners.com as well as "Wayne Allyn Root's WinningEDGE" national TV and radio show, airing on Saturday mornings starting Sept. 9. GWIN had a previous agreement with Hooters Casino Hotel Las Vegas, who will continue its sponsorship of The WinningEDGE after a successful 2005 Season.

Wayne Allyn Root, one of the most recognized professional sports prognosticators in the world ? he has been called "The Face of Las Vegas Gambling," "America's Handicapper" and "The King of Vegas Sports Gambling", said that this deal is a further indication that their core sports handicapping services business still generates significant new revenue streams from media sponsorship and advertising partners.

He also sustains that the partnership with ThePIGPoker.net and Hooters Casino Hotel in Las Vegas, lends more credibility to their products and personalities. Luke King, Legendz CEO, is a big fan of Wayne Allyn Root and The WinningEDGE brand name and media properties, considering that when it comes to sports gambling advice and information, GWIN is clearly a global leader.

In this situation, Legendzsports company is more than happy to collaborate with GWIN and to introduce their new ThePIGPoker.net products to American consumers. They consider that by attaching their image to the well know image of Wayne Allyn Root and The WinningEDGE, ThePIGPoker.net will raise its popularity.
