Perhaps it is the celebrities that are beginning to hype online casinos that have more women interested in playing. They certainly feel they can trust the online casinos now. But of course, it may have nothing to do with the celebrities who are making waves in advertising. For Party Casino the advertisement will be about getting consumers into the online casino , while advertising the range of games they offer. A Leeds based agency came up with the idea for the casino. The first advertisement was released on January 28th, 2010. Channel 4 in the UK aired it during the Celebrity Big Brother. It seems that anyone watching that show is definitely going to know what’s up with Party Casino.


Phil Tufnell spoke about this recent collaboration. He said it was fun to make the ads and hopefully the deal will continue with Party Gaming. He is a huge fan of poker, so he is also hoping to do ads for the sister site Party Poker, if Party Gaming will have him. This new way of advertising is sure to increase the UK online participation even more.

Unfortunately, these digs were taken a little too seriously by Ricky Ponting, who failed to see the fun in Tufnell's speech.
