Online Poker Company Excapsa May Seek London Listing
The company behind the Ultimate Bet online poker room may be seeking a London listing this year, in an effort to raise £75 million on AIM, the Alternative Investment Market. This is a rumor that was started last year in September when a new corporate advisor was added to the company, but gained new life when Excapsa Chief Executive Officer Jim Ryan recently paid a visit to London. Further reports suggest that as much as three times the subscribed offers were offered, a significant initial response.
