Zynga Poker and Rob Riggle Team up for MTTs Poker Tourneys

Celebrated actor and comedian Rob Riggle is joining Zynga Poker for highly-anticipated Multi-Table Tournaments

The new partnership between the iconic on-screen comedian, Rob Riggle, and Zynga Inc will offer players the opportunity to participate in some of the most exciting Multi-Table Tournaments available on a social gaming platform. This offer is intended for Zynga Poker’s global audience and will not be limited to individual geolocations.

Zynga Poker Welcomes New Tournaments with Plenty to Offer

The poker tourneys are played for the platform’s bespoke currency, chips. As to the format, there will be live, TV, and online tournaments covered on the platform with players bringing their best game for a chance to win bragging rights and any of the coveted prizes so long as their skill allows them to.

The offer now expands to Weekly Marquee Tournaments which will be held on Saturday and Sunday, and Daily Tournaments. Players can enjoy a global pool of participants to test their mettle up against and similarly benefit from flexible buy-ins and payouts as well as starting times that will not force anyone to play at odd hours or have to sit around and wait.

Commenting on this tremendous opportunity, Riggle hailed the opportunity to collaborate with the platform. He was also featured in the promotional trailer for the forthcoming MTTs which are looking to galvanize Zynga Poker’s global audience into joining the action.

“The feeling of sitting down at a poker table never gets old and with Zynga Poker’s Multi-Table Tournaments, players can challenge anyone in the world, build stacks, and crush their opponent’s dreams for ultimate bragging rights,” the beloved comedian said in a statement, amping up the hype for the newly-announced formats.

Zynga Poker has welcomed the opportunity to collaborate with Riggle in a similarly upbeat tone. Yaron Leyvand, Executive VP, of mobile games at Zynga, was similarly pleased with the opportunity and said that the introduction of the MTTs has been met with robust feedback from the community.

Following up on Customer Feedback to Shape the Future of Poker

“The introduction of Multi-Table Tournaments is a direct response to the passionate requests of our players, and we’re thrilled to be working with Rob Riggle to introduce this new level of competition to the game,” he explained.

Zynga Poker took nearly 17 years to launch the coveted MTTs, with the company opting for many popular options in the past – Omaha, Short Deck, Pineapple Poker and more – but always short of Multi-Table Tournaments.

As Leyvand explained, this has been one of the most requested features for a good while now, and Zynga Poker has raised to the occasion, delivering the MTTs format for its audiences at long last.
