DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 31, 2005--The first issue of Poker Pro Magazine will be available in major bookstore outlets such as Borders, Barnes & Noble, and Tower Books and in 90 airport newsstands nationwide in the United States and Canada on July 1, 2005.
The 80-page glossy will be published bimonthly (July, September, and November) in 2005 and monthly beginning in January 2006. Ingram Periodicals and the Hudson Group will coordinate national distribution. Total initial circulation will begin at 50,000 copies and is expected to rapidly grow as an aggressive subscription campaign is launched to coincide with monthly distribution.
Targeting beginning to intermediate players of all ages, Poker Pro will provide a diverse offering of features and columns ranging from tutorials and instruction from the game's biggest players to poker-related lifestyle articles and coverage of the game's biggest tournaments and Hollywood Stars who play poker. Poker Pro has a close working relationship with the World Poker Tour, giving them an inside track on major events and news from the circuit.
The first issue will run with a cover story of poker 'Godfather' Doyle Brunson, one of the most successful poker players in the history of the game. Says Will Jordan, Poker Pro's Vice President of Sales and Marketing, "It was a real coup getting Doyle on the cover of our premiere issue. Everyone who knows poker knows of Doyle Brunson. He's a legend in the game."
Poker Pro Magazine is being launched with one of the largest initial circulations of any poker publication in the US and is being financed by Dan Jacobs, managing member of several corporations including Florida Micro LLC, a privately held international IT solutions company headquartered in Deerfield Beach, Florida.
