It's all change at PaddyPower as the highly successful and popular online poker site switches networks and gets a facelift.

The poker client is moving to a new network, and Europe's largest, iPoker, and the site's look and feel gets a makeover.

The move means number of improvements to the paddypowerpoker.com client and will benefit players in a number of ways.

The offering will boast an all-new interface, improved game selection, customisation options, VIP programme, private tables and much more.

Other tweaks include: a new look poker table and lobby; easier to filter and find games; customisable game options (3D Avatars, Sound, etc); innovative tournaments (with added $50,000 bonuses); C*A*S*H VIP Programme; multi-micro-tables – players can play up to eight at once; improved action buttons and slider-bet-bar; and private tables.

Nikki Newman, Head of Operations at the Irish online poker room says. "We’ve worked long and hard to make the transition to the new software as smooth as possible for our highly-valued players. On 29 February players will be invited to upgrade to the new software and we’ve left a little present for each player on the other side."

"The process of upgrading to the new software is very simple. When players launch their paddypowerpoker.com client they are asked to ‘upgrade now’. Players click ‘yes’ and the process takes a few minutes."

"The site will look different, but better in my opinion. It is very intuitive and has a host of new features as well as retaining many of the old ones such as Irish Open satellites. We believe our players will take to it like ducks to water. And, of course, we wish them every success for the future."
