FROM BAD BEAT TO WEDDING BELLS:
COUPLE MEET ONLINE AND GO ALL-IN FOR LIFE!

With online poker becoming one of the Internet's largest social networks, it was only a matter of time before someone got married after meeting over a game. PartyPoker.com is delighted to announce what we believe to be the world's first marriage where the couple met playing online poker.

Gary Suffir, a 28-year-old New York attorney will wed 27-year-old Las Vegas artist Jackie Johnson at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas on March 7, 2006. The happy couple met in September, 2004 playing poker at PartyPoker.com, the world's largest poker room. Naturally, the wedding will have a poker theme, and the honeymoon will take place onboard the PartyPoker.com Million V Cruise.

It all started on the turn of a card. "I first met Gary online at PartyPoker.com in September, 2004," says Jackie. "We were both playing in a $30 Omaha Hi-Lo game, and I was very much a beginner to this version of the game. Gary made what I considered to be a good play but got nailed by a bad beat on the river. The guy who won the hand started trashing Gary. I supported Gary in the argument and the rest, as they say, is history."

After a few days of constant communication using the PartyPoker.com 'buddy' feature and then instant messenger, Jackie and Gary discovered they shared the same taste in music, as well as poker. Gary and Jackie continued to compete in the same multi-table tournaments and three months later they exchanged photographs. Finally, in January 2005, Gary went to Las Vegas and met Jackie. What began as a one-day meeting of online friends soon stretched to a week, although initially they were both hesitant to admit how strongly they felt about each other.

By March 2005 - six weeks after their first meeting - Jackie moved to New York City to live with Gary and they had their first kiss. In August, Gary got down on one knee and proposed, complete with a ring and yellow roses and daisies. "I was delighted she said yes," Gary said. "We agreed we'd get married in Vegas to try and recreate that great week we had when we first met in January."

The couple are looking forward to their honeymoon where they'll compete for millions of dollars in PartyPoker.com Million V prize money. "We both play hyper aggressive," said Gary, who plays under the name 'I_like_birds' on the net. Jackie plays as 'Supplanter'.

The upcoming poker nuptials have created quite a stir in the PartyPoker.com offices. According to spokesman Warren Lush, "Since hearing about Gary and Jackie, we've now done a deal with LavaLife for some private poker dating tables. Perhaps we should think about creating our own online dating site!"
