“Wedded Bliss: Absolut Vodka plus Online Poker Equals Success!”

One way to gauge the success of a phenomenon is by looking to see which, if any, big name brands want to be associated with it. And with that criterion in mind, it looks as if internet gambling has begun to hit the big time.

Taking advantage of the growing popularity of online gambling sites, Absolut Vodka has made a brilliant marketing decision. Employing what is known as cross-promotion advertising, Absolut now features its own online casino style poker games on its website.

Granted, the quality of the Absolut poker page is not exactly at the same level as that of the actual online casino sites, and if you’re looking for a large choice of games and the option of placing real wagers, you wouldn’t go to the Absolut page. But it does happen to be a cool site – check out the real-time flash gaming – and once you’ve passed the age verification system, you can start playing immediately. One poker game they offer is Holdem – the graphics are nice and it’s a smooth play.

What to do on a winter’s night? Absolut Vodka has some ideas: how about staying warm with a nice glass of Absolut and some online gambling? There’s no need at all to go out and brave the cold! The young adult population seems to like this message, and to take it to heart. They are the ones, after all, who are fueling the popularity of online gambling – a phenomenon that Absolut has wisely chosen to hitch its wagon to.
