WSOP New Jersey has confirmed that it now has a promotional relationship with the New York Rangers National Hockey League (NHL) team.
Last week the online poker room launched a promotion for their New Jersey players which offered the chance to have a “Blueshirt legend” come to their home to watch the April 12 game against Montreal.
Other prizes in the draw include tickets to Rangers’ games and autographed jerseys.
The promotion runs until April 7, and takes the form of a prize draw, with entry via tickets awarded to players who make deposits on the New Jersey site. The small print of the promotion explains that “free entry is available” by emailing WSOP.com account details to the organizers.
The promotional web page stated that the WSOP was the “official online gaming partner” of the NY Rangers. WSOP confirmed the new sponsorship to PokerNews.com on Monday.
The Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA and the New Jersey Devils in the NHL were the first US professional sports teams to enter into a multi-year marketing agreement when they signed a deal with partypoker, WSOP’s main competitor in the New Jersey market, in January.
The full details of the WSOP and NY Rangers deal have not yet been announced.
