CakePoker’s journey started in April, 2004, with a small team who were given a difficult mission: to design a better poker site. Each member of the core team had extensive experience in the fields of networking, database management, financial transactions and video game design. Even though each person came from diverse backgrounds they all shared one thing, each member of the team was a poker player with a passion for the game. Like any successful business venture, no work commenced until a proper design was in place; one that would take the experience of playing poker online and make it not only more enjoyable but more rewarding as well.
As the team commenced the journey to bring this vision to fruition, we were fortunate to locate and selectively choose a number of uniquely experienced team members who all brought incredible value to the table. Full production with the final team began nearly a year after in April, 2005, and we began to put all our designs to the test. Not all the ideas survived the process and some wait in the wings for their moment in the sun, but we are proud to bring you the start of a new take on a grand old game.
In these first few months, CakePoker is proud to quietly host our new service for a select few, in order to better respond to any technical issues that may arise. These select players will benefit from and be rewarded for their early loyalty. Soon, CakePoker will announce a Grand Opening celebration designed to not only continue to reward our initial players, but welcome in our new players as magazine ads, CakePoker sponsored events and even TV commercials begin to proudly spread the word.
