888poker is going from strength to strength at the moment, something which has not gone unnoticed at this years Global Gaming Awards where 888 Holdings have been named "Best Digital Operator" for their slick and increasingly successful poker product.
Over the last 12 months 888poker has solidified its position as the number two poker site worldwide, with only the mighty PokerStars ahead of them. Both their online offering and their live events and sponsorships (including the WSOP in Vegas) have been huge successes in 2016.
This is actually the second time in three years that 888 have walked away with the Best Digital Operator award, winning in 2014, but missing out last year to Bet365.
On handing over their award at the ceremony in Las Vegas last Monday, Alex Hammond, Editor of Gambling Insider said that 888poker had "made great strides in challenging the dominance of PokerStars in both the US and Europe in the past 12 months and in the process given the online poker industry a jolt that many believe the industry needs to return to its former glory,”.
In a subsequent press release 888 Holdings’ chief executive officer Itai Frieberger said, “We are delighted to have received such an esteemed recognition, which is testament to our ongoing commitment to providing our players with an exceptional online poker platform and world-class user experience,”
