In partnership with poker star Phil Galfond, Rush Street Interactive has launched its proprietary online BetRivers Poker platform.
Not just an ambassador, Phil Galfond was a partner throughout the design and development of the platform.
"As poker players, we designed this platform from the ground up to be for the players – all players. From the amateur playing their very first hand to the sophisticated pro, everyone was kept in mind as we focused on fairness, excitement, and generous rewards that truly benefit the player," said Phil Galfond.
"I’ve been heavily involved in the game design, promotions and policy decisions, and, more importantly, in building an incredible team that sees online poker the way I do."
BetRivers Poker offers a suite of game formats, including cash games, Sit & Go tournaments, and multi-table tournaments, catering to players of all skill levels. The platform also introduces unique features like Dynamic Avatars, which provide players with real-time insights into their opponents’ play styles. These avatars dynamically adjust their expressions based on the opponent's behaviour, offering an intuitive and engaging way to read the competition. Additionally, the Cub3d Sit and Go Tournaments (SNGs) allow players to win up to 1500x their buy-in in minutes.
"We are incredibly excited about the launch of this platform. Our goal is to create a seamless experience for players, bridging the gap between the BetRivers digital and Rivers Casino offerings," said Richard Schwartz, CEO of Rush Street Interactive.
"By aligning with Rush Street Gaming’s strong retail presence, we are able to leverage our combined strengths to offer a truly unique poker experience that benefits players and drives growth across our entire portfolio."
Tim Drehkoff, CEO of Rush Street Gaming, added: "This launch reinforces our commitment to offering Rivers Casino’s guests a wide variety of gaming options. By integrating online and in-person poker, we’re not only enhancing the player experience, but also providing a seamless loyalty and rewards programme. We’re committed to continuing to innovate and provide value to our players."
