AUTHOR: Jerry "Jet" Whittaker TITLE: Doyles Room Engages in Aggressive Advertising DATE: 5:46 AM ----- BODY:

Doyles Room Poker has begun advertising heavily on US television recently with the legendary player himself, Doyle Brunson, discussing how to play poker. The ads themselves direct viewers to the free education version of the Doyles Room website - DoylesRoom.net. That site does not permit betting. After the President signed a bill into law this past October that would curb some forms of internet gambling via credit cards, a number of the industry's top online poker rooms including PartyPoker and ParadisePoker.com, pulled out of the US market. Doyles Room has vowed to continue taking on US poker players. And while the Poker Players Alliance is working hard to have online poker exempted from the new law, Doyles Room's software provider, Tribeca, has announced it will no longer allow its licensees to accept players from the United States. This has resulted in Doyles Room's search for a new online poker network. Doyles Room's newest ad campaign, which is seen in a number of markets including New York City local television stations, demonstrates Doyles commitment to the US market. The advertisement stars former Brunson Doyle partner, Pamela Anderson.
