TEXAS HOLDEM ONLINE POKER

    - Online PokerRoom Night in Canada Helps Cure Hockey Fan Withdrawal -

Canadian hockey fans mourning the likely demise
of the 2004-2005 NHL season can now turn to PokerRoom.com to bring back    
fast-paced action and hard hits to Saturday nights. Looking to return some
excitement to hockey fans, PokerRoom.com has introduced PokerRoom Night in
Canada. Every Saturday night, until February 19, 2005, Canadians can visit
PokerRoom.com for some Texas Holdem and a chance to win a seat in the final
tournament on February 26, where the lucky player wins an all-expense paid
trip to see popular NHL stars play hockey in Sweden.
    PokerRoom.com's popular Texas HoldEm poker has scored big
internationally with over three million members. Now, with the growing
popularity of televised celebrity and Las Vegas poker tournaments, Canadians
have readily adopted this hot new social trend to fill the void of the hockey
season. By registering at www.PokerRoom.com, Canadians can bring the
excitement back to Saturday nights by competing for what might be their only
chance to see NHL players in action. Already one lucky fan was dealt a lucky
hand and she and a friend won a dream hockey vacation. The next 10 tournament
winners will meet in the final tournament, where they too will get a chance to
win the hockey trip to Sweden, in addition to their game winnings.

    Score big with hard-hitting poker action
    ----------------------------------------
    Getting in on the action is easy. To enter, simply make a $40 CDN deposit
for each PokerRoom Night in Canada Tournament, which begins every Saturday at
7:00 p.m. EST. All participants receive the same number of chips and play
until they've won all the other participants' chips - or lost all their own.
The winner of the weekly PokerRoom Night in Canada tournaments will receive a
ticket entitling them to a seat in the PokerRoom Night in Canada Play-off
Final on February 26. This Final tournament will be hosted as a single table,
winner-takes-all-tournament, with the trip to Sweden as first prize.
