In fact, to capitalize on this high growth sector, we have hired a separate operational team to fully pursue online gaming strategies; while we maintain focus on expanding our hotel business's Software package to now include 'gaming where legal' this benefits shareholders as it will create additional income from many of our properties through Hoteliers internationally as it gives us a distinctive marketing advantage."
The tremendous growth and attraction of poker has been evidenced by such shows as Celebrity Poker and the Travel Channel's 13-week WORLD POKER TOUR series, which was a ratings success on television, quickly becoming the highest-rated programming on that network in 2003 and 2004.
The 2004 winner of the World Series of Poker walked away with a world record prize of over $5 million, out of $49 million in total prizes, more than doubling the prize values awarded in 2003.
