(London, England) – Next generation online poker room PKR.com has reached an historic milestone this week when it signed up its one millionth user. Passing the one million mark caps a phenomenal year of growth for PKR.com, which has come out of nowhere to quickly establish itself as a major player in the online poker market.

PKR's state of the art 3D graphics and immersive game system, which allow players to customise characters and interact with opponents using a range of body language and emotes, has proven irresistible to players around the world who have flocked to the site in record numbers since its August, 2006 launch.

A stand alone operator, PKR.com quickly proved more than capable of generating a critical mass of players with a product unique in the industry and with an innovative marketing campaign that has drawn a new generation of players to the game.

Entering its second year PKR.com is poised to continue scooping record numbers of players while leveraging other competitive advantages that place it in an extremely favourable market position. Licensed in Alderney, PKR.com is regulated by a jurisdiction recently 'white listed' by the Department for Culture Media and Sport in the UK, ensuring that PKR.com will be allowed to expand advertising efforts in one of its key markets while many rivals are frozen out.

PKR.com has also stayed completely out of the U.S., meaning the company has never accepted cash bets from American players. This decision has been fully vindicated in the light of the October passing of the UIGEA that effectively outlawed online gaming.
