Patrik Selin
Patrik Selin, CEO of the Bodog Network & Bodog Europe, is one of the pioneers of the online poker industry and is once again changing the business model for the industry by rethinking rakeback and data mining in a bid to bring the fun back to online poker. The Bodog Poker Network will launch later this year.
Patrik was President & CEO of Ongame, where he oversaw the sale of the business to BWin for 500,000,000 Euro, still the biggest acquisition deal in the online gambling world. At Ongame, Patrik made a number of decisions to make the company more transparent and fair; he introduced responsible gaming and he initiated annual reporting by stock market standards despite being privately owned.
Patrik Selin loves poker and has played in a number of major events, including EPT, WPT, and WSOP. He finished in the money in the WSOP Main Event in 2006, and he has reached two televised final tables in Europe.
Patrik is the only CEO of a major online poker business that regularly plays on the world poker circuit and believes this is the best place to fully hear what the players want and, more importantly, what they don’t want.
