Popular online gaming group, Leisure and Gaming, is about to launch a brand new poker site on the Microgaming Poker Network. Previously known as Prima Poker, the network is one of the most successful on the internet today and will welcome Leisure and Gaming’s new site, known as Stanley VIPpoker.com, onboard in late July.
The news was first reported by eGaming Review, which opined that Leisure and Gaming’s decision to join Microgaming's network is a sensible decision given that the majority of VIP customers are based in the U.S. Similarly, Acropolis, which was purchased by Leisure and Gaming in 2005, will bring its majority of UK players to the network.

Another advantage the deal brings is the offline promotional opportunities made available. The brand Stanley can be found at approximately 40 land-based casinos in the UK and is a well known and highly visible brand. Stanley also has an estimated 1.4 million individuals registered. Leisure and Gaming will gain access to these shortly after the new site is launched.
