Extreme Poker Ltd. is pleased to announce that its television program, "The Great Canadian Poker Tournament, brought to you by EmpirePoker.com," has entered into negotiations to produce "The Great Canadian Poker Tournament, British Columbia Edition," to be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The Great Canadian Poker Tournament brought to you by EmpirePoker.com is the largest no-fee entry, live poker game available to the public.

"The foray to Canada's west coast is the beginning of a national project. We have had interest from other regions in the country and with the insatiable demand by the public, I see no reason why The Great Canadian Poker Tournament should not be available in all regions of the country," says Adam Feldman, President of Extreme Poker Ltd.

Mr. Feldman goes on to state, "We have begun talks with interested parties in jurisdictions outside of Canada, and North America, and are encouraged with the response we have received. Our unique format, our artistic production team, and the overwhelming demand and response from the poker playing public laid a roadmap for the Tournament to go world-wide."

Currently "The Great Canadian Poker Tournament, brought to you by EmpirePoker.com" is taking applications for players on the web site www.greatcdn.com, and to date the response has been enormous.
