The announcement was made on Twitter, so only a few details are known thus far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What we know from MPN\u2019s tweet is that there will be a change to the tournament lobby. It seems as though the operator will be adding in useful tools that<strong> allows players to see how many buy-ins, rebuys and add-ons they currently have<\/strong>, so they can keep better track of their gaming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, <strong>MPN operates on almost 30 gaming websites<\/strong>. There are quite big brands that use the poker platform, including Grosvenor Poker and Betsson. So, players at these sites will benefit from the newly updated software at some point in the near future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"potential-last-update-before-the-networks-closure\">Potential Last Update Before the Network\u2019s Closure <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>MPN has been a big player in the online gaming market for quite some time, but<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamblingnews.com\/news\/microgaming-announces-decision-to-shut-down-mpn\/\"><strong>announced its closure<\/strong><\/a><strong> in September 2019.<\/strong> When Microgaming executives were asked why the poker network would be shutting down, the company\u2019s CEO John Coleman stated that its mode<strong>l \u201cno longer fits with our strategic vision for poker\u201d. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s quite a vague answer, so players speculated that the\nclosure could be due to bots which have been running rampant in the online\npoker community for the past couple of years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The operator plans to shut down its poker network some time next year, either in Q2 or Q3, but that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that there won\u2019t be anymore Microgaming poker games. According to Coleman, Microgaming is will be taking \u201ca new strategic direction for the vertical, details of which will be revealed in due course\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, it does make sense that the company is still rolling out updates for its poker software. If MPN closes but there is still another online poker product in the pipeline, the company will want to keep its software updated for the new project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ItIt will be exciting to see what MPN actually has planned for its tournament lobby update. More information is likely to be announced over the course of the next week, and <strong>we will keep you updated with further details<\/strong> to let you know how MPN plans to improve the tournament gaming experience for its players across a wide variety of sites.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Microgaming Poker Network (MPN) has announced an upcoming software update, which will provide players with an improved tournament experience.
