Match Poker Online Officially Launches To “Sportify” the Game of Poker
Poker players around the world now have the opportunity to play the game they love in a truly unique format. The Match Poker Online app officially launches on Feb. 14 (Feb. 15 in Australia/Asia time zones) and transforms poker into a sporting competition – giving players the opportunity for the first time to realistically compare their own skills against others.
What sets Match Poker Online apart? The game truly gauges where a player stands by having players across the platform play the same hands. Players can work on their skills by comparing their own play and decisions to others around the world who have played exactly the same hand.
For the first time, players can finally answer questions like: “Should I have raised in this position preflop instead of flat calling? Has this guy got the nuts or is he bluffing? Can I take this pot with a bluff or will I get caught?”
The app is packed with features, statistics, excellent graphics, and exciting gameplay. You can even compare your own play against friends in a fantasy sports-style competition. There’s no longer a need for arguing or debate on which players are better based on conjecture and insufficient data. With Match Poker, all that data is now available.
When playing, you’re not just competing against the players at your table, but against players seated at other tables in the same seat you are. All players in that seat are dealt the same two “hole” cards and see the same flop, turn, and river.
“It’s not poker as you’ve ever played it before – it’s a Battle Royale where you compete against opponents playing the same hand as you to survive elimination,” Match Poker Online head of customer relations Jake Colman says. “This makes it a pure test of skill – a sport – an official mind sport. And, for the first time in the history of poker, you can obtain an official world ranking. No other poker experience gives you this.”
The Battle Royale version kicks off the app’s launch. Players win chips at their normal poker table, but their real opponents are the players in the same seat at other tables. These same users receive the exact same cards. In this way, the luck of the cards has no effect on a player’s result compared to the others. If your full house was smashed by quads, so was theirs – the only question being “did you score better than them?”
“Match Poker shows you how better players played exactly the same cards, offering a unique learning experience,” Colman says. “Plus, the app collects stats on your play and uses them to tell you if you are playing too aggressively, too passively, too loose, or too tight.”
Here’s a look at what’s ahead for Match Poker Online users in the coming months:
- After launch, the year will be split into “Seasons” with players battling to move through the rankings toward a place on their country’s national team.
- Match Poker will hold national events of almost every ranking level. This is all overseen by the International Federation of Match Poker, which has its sights set on making Match Poker an Olympic sport.
- Players can leverage the Match Poker database of thousands of results for every hand played. This allows for unique insights into how you can become a better poker player.
- The “Famous Hands” feature will allow players to relive some of the biggest hands in poker history and replay these moments themselves.
- More features and game types will be unveiled.
The release comes after years of development and now offers players some high-powered insight on their poker skills as well as plenty of fun. How do you match up? Download and find out.
Match Poker Online will be available in the App Store and Google Play Store beginning a few days before the official launch date.

Amusnet has supported the 10th Annual Meeting between the Bulgarian Business Leaders Forum (BBLF) and the Diplomatic Corps, reaffirming its commitment to initiatives that foster dialogue, responsible business and Bulgaria’s long-term economic development.
Held at InterContinental Sofia, this year’s high-level forum brought together ambassadors, senior government officials and executives from leading Bulgarian and international companies under the theme “Bulgaria: Prospects for Rapid Economic Transformation”. The discussions explored the country’s potential to accelerate economic growth through innovation, digitalisation, strategic investments and stronger collaboration between the public and private sectors.
As a long-standing partner of the Bulgarian Business Leaders Forum, Amusnet continues to support initiatives that create meaningful dialogue around the future of Bulgaria’s economy and business environment. The annual meeting serves as one of the country’s most important platforms for exchanging ideas between the diplomatic community, institutional leaders and the business sector.
“Supporting initiatives that encourage collaboration and forward-looking dialogue is part of our commitment to responsible business. We believe that sustainable economic growth is driven by strong partnerships and a shared vision for the future,” said Ivo Georgiev, CEO of Amusnet.
This year’s forum focused on topics including Bulgaria’s investment attractiveness, technological advancement, talent development and the opportunities created by closer cooperation between business, government and international partners. The event once again highlighted the importance of building an environment that encourages competitiveness and sustainable growth.
For Amusnet, supporting the BBLF Annual Meeting reflects the company’s broader commitment to contributing to Bulgaria’s business ecosystem beyond its core operations. As one of the country’s leading software companies, Amusnet continues to stand behind initiatives that promote responsible leadership and long-term economic progress.
The partnership further strengthens Amusnet’s collaboration with BBLF and underscores the company’s belief that sustainable growth is achieved through dialogue, shared expertise and collective action.

Wazdan Launches First Stage of Summer Network Promotion with Mystery Drop
Wazdan, the leading gain-focused developer, has launched the first stage of its summer-long Network Promotion campaign to partner operators from 29th June to 19th July 2026.
As part of a wider three-stage seasonal campaign running throughout the summer, the opening phase centres around Mystery Drop, one of Wazdan’s established promotional tools designed to enhance player engagement through an additional reward layer during gameplay.
During active game sessions, Mystery Drop gives players the opportunity to win cash or physical prizes. Once the feature is triggered, players select one of nine Mystery Boxes to reveal their reward, adding an extra level of anticipation and entertainment to the gameplay experience.
Designed as a ready-to-use promotional solution for operators, Mystery Drop requires no additional integration and does not impact the RTP of the base game. Powered by a certified independent RNG engine, the tool can also be tailored to meet the requirements of individual casinos and regulated markets.
The first stage of the Wazdan Summer Drop marks the beginning of a wider summer initiative, with additional campaign phases featuring further engagement mechanics set to launch later in the season.
Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan, said: “Remaining an innovative supplier in an increasingly competitive market means continuously delivering engaging experiences that resonate with both players and operators.
“Mystery Drop has proven to be an effective promotional tool for our partners, adding an extra layer of excitement to gameplay while remaining simple to activate and fully customisable for different markets. We are excited to launch the first stage of this summer campaign and continue supporting our partners with memorable promotional experiences throughout the season.”
