PartyPoker Buys EmpirePoker

PartyGaming has announced it had acquired Empire Poker, plus other online sites aceclub.com, and starluckcasino.com for the sum of $250 million dollars.

Before the dispute that ha sdragged the two company the last few months, Party Poker and Empire were considered 'sister sites' by players, as it was commonly known among players that they were actually playing on Party's skin.

In October, Party made a decision to cut off its 'skins' from the Party player pool, effectively leaving Party as a standalone entity, and leaving the skins without the bulk of the player base they had become accustomed to.
