LOS ANGELES, CA, July 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- World Poker Fund Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK: WPFH), a leading developer and operator of on-line technology, gaming platforms and brands, announces today that it has signed an agreement to sell a portion of its Peer-to-Peer Betting technology for $2.5 million. 

WPFH is selling the foreign rights to its recently acquired Peer-to-Peer betting technology and  will be retaining the US rights and will continue with its plans to integrate the Peet-to-Peer Betting technology with its other recently acquired app Picking Duck.

“The partial sale of this asset will result in WPFH booking over $2 million in  profits for the third quarter.  This transaction is a win-win situation as WPFH will have additional funds from the sale, while retaining the US licensing rights of the technology,” says Travis Kasper, CEO of WPFH.

In addition, WPFH announced that the $2.5 million private placement funding that it announced earlier this month, under which PW Holdings will purchase 1 million shares in WPFH at the agreed upon price of $2.50 per share, is proceeding as expected. WPFH expects to have that transaction closed within the next 45 days.
