CALGARY, Alberta, March 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PokerVision Media Inc. (PVN), a wholly owned subsidiary of ePlay Digital Inc. (CSE:EPY) (FSE:2NY2) is pleased to announce the development of CyberRailTM, a player
generated, interactive, live event coverage and television App. Developed by Mobovivo Inc., another wholly owned subsidiary of ePlay, CyberRailTM integrates the
latest in viewer and player engagement, initially designed for the poker industry but with far reaching applications for other
sports, gaming and entertainment sectors.
PVN plans to launch CyberRailTM as a key component of its live event broadcast coverage that will allow for
players and viewers to interact and report in real time the early stages of poker tournaments while adding gamification and
advertising modules to generate revenues and create an enhanced user experience.
“Tournament poker has been a tough game to broadcast in the traditional ways,” commented PVN’s Director of Poker Programming
Adam Schwartz. “Together with Mobovivo, PVN will change the way events are televised and players can interact with their
friends and fans as well as with the broadcast team and add elements of daily fantasy through the integration of a sports game
engine.”
“Mobovivo has been helping TV and sports networks engage and grow viewership using digital and mobile technology since 2009,”
commented ePlay Digital and Mobovivo’s CEO Trevor Doerksen. “Applying our advanced and proprietary technology for live poker
competition programming will build a business model that generates new revenues for PokerVision, its partners and advertisers as we
revolutionize live competition programming.”

soon.
