With December fast approaching, annual awards shows are fast coming and going. The most recent being the annual E Gaming Review Awards or EGR Awards which they are probably better known as.

Will a list of awards categories as long as my arm, covering all aspect of online gaming from Poker to Bingo. But one of the big winners from the poker industry was PKR.

PKR won best Poker Operator of the year. Which is the one most Poker Networks and Online Poker Sites want to win. With PKR winning the award, it has left me thinking that it must be down to PKR’s unique software and unique feel you get from playing pokeron PKR Poker.

PKR will be over joyed with this win, and with them also nominated for Best Affiliate Program at the IGB Affiliate Awards, I’m sure they will be looking to do the double.

Don’t forget to vote PKR in the IGB Awards with voting closing on the 13th of December. Plus, Poker News Boy is also up for an award in the Best Newcomer: Affiliate category. So every one at PNB would really appreciate if you could vote for us also.
