www.cablefaxdaily.com, Published by Access Intelligence, LLC, Tel: 301-354-2101 Cablefax DailyTM Monday — May 21, 2018 What the Industry Reads First Volume 29 / No. 097 Full House: Poker Central Opens New Studio After OTT Success The switch from linear TV to a digital approach has proven to have its challenges, but Poker Central believes it made the right bet. The company revealed last month that a new studio was on the way, and it officially opened the facility on Thursday evening. The studio, housed in Vegas’ ARIA Resort and Casino, will serve as the exclusive home for all Poker Central-owned live events and those distributed on its OTT service, PokerGO. It will also allow for greater creation of original programming, a focus over the next year. Poker Central partnered with competitive gam- ing content company ESP Gaming on the studio’s opening. ESP, a sister company to Poker Central, will use the space to host its own live esports event productions, including the Vainglory Premier League, when Poker Central is not utilizing the space. “We’ll keep it in use quite often and we’ll be able to optimize and be really efficient for the amount of original content that we create for both businesses,” JR McCabe, chief digital officer of Poker Central/ PokerGO said in an interview with Cablefax. Poker Central shut down its dedicated linear TV channel at the end of 2016 in favor of going all digital. It has continued to host its content on Roku, Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV, but no longer offers a live stream.
