 Goals and Objectives
› Position Infiniti Poker as THE online poker room for US players by providing
convenient depositing and new playing options that capture the interaction and
intensity of live play
› Build market share:
 Sustainable average US player volume
 Significant player base in terms of deposits
 Peak play volume to signal growth potential
› Become Industry Leader in Real Time, Instant Deposit and Withdrawal Options
 “One-click” Bitcoin deposits and debit card withdrawals – legal, fast, practical
 Strategic Focus
› Niche marketing –targeting savvy, experienced US online poker players who
abandoned online play in the 2004-2010 time frame due to UIGEA
› Volume-Oriented pricing, penetration pricing strategy for market introduction to
build market share
› Core poker experience – Focused game choice (No Limit Hold ‘Em) early on to
keep costs low and avoid fragmentation of customer base
› Product leadership orientation – InfiniVision webcam technology gives players live
poker feel

4.
 Implementation Issues
› High player volume and turnover is essential for differentiating on features and convenience;
need player exposure and word-of-mouth to gain momentum
› Gaining market share and brand acceptance is crucial to prevent large poker rooms from
copying our business model
 Existing market share leaders Pokerstars and Switch Poker could implement a stopgap
blocking strategy
› Bitcoin objectives are critical to distribution strategy – players and partners will be motivated via
rakeback deals which require functional financial transactions
› Any CEO downtime will interfere with centralized marketing structure; Rogue decisions or
communications by lower managers (through SM or other) could threaten program
› There are likely to be unforeseen operational and IT related challenges due to use of
independent software package – necessary to maintain autonomy and implement features
 Expected Outcomes
› Rapid increase in brand awareness
 Strong brand association with patriotic US imagery – successful communication that we are
actively seeking US players
 Successful communication of ease of use and demonstration of unique features
› Large numbers of new players trying Infiniti Poker and making Bitcoin deposits
› Real time SM and poker forum based customer service – combining support and promotion
› Successful market share grab - stage set for growth

5.
 Technologically advanced, social media enhanced, US-facing online poker
room
 Based in Canada with Las Vegas player investors
 “Captain” of Team Infiniti is Gavin Smith – “Clown Prince of Poker”, 2005
World Poker Tour Player of the Year, World Series of Poker Bracelet winner
 In public beta testing (play money) as of 9/13/12; website went live 12/23/11
 Accepts Bitcoin deposits – instant, global, legal, secure
› Standalone digital cryptocurrency – independent of US$
› Bypasses banks, credit card companies, other financial intermediaries
› Players no longer have to store their bankroll with the poker room
 InfiniVision – online poker with live web cams; can play at public tables or set
up “home games”
 Infiniti Connected social media platform partnered with Profit 4 Purpose, a
sustainable business non-profit group

6.
 Current and Potential Customers:
› Existing online US poker players “on the margins” after UIGEA Black Friday crackdown
› Live in US major metro areas, medium income, primarily single, 30-45
› Very computer savvy, highly skilled at poker– “rocks”, play daily - heavy users; Treat poker as a second job
› Workaday in their attitudes; get excited about promotions that reward “table time” or skill – like “deep stacks” poker
› Socialize mostly online
› Returning online US poker players who left before or after UIGEA
› Live throughout the US, higher income, standard marriage rate for age range, 35-55
› Savvy poker players, but not as technical – “sharks” and “eagles”; Medium users – play in bursts
› Play for entertainment and $/hour; drawn to “big league” promotions (pro players, “World Series” tourneys)
› Have extensive family and work obligations; circles of friends -“word-of-mouth” consumers
› Local brick & mortar poker players lured to online poker
› Live throughout the US, less on the coasts, low-medium income, mix of married and single, many retirees, 45-70
› Not computer savvy – depend on default software install to work out of the box – mix of “rocks” and “fish”; Light users, but
can be incentivized.
› Play out of novelty and convenience; not aware of rake or tourney fees – “paying to play”; not expecting to win
› Have less work obligations; socialize at the poker tables and then “return home” – unclear what their “at home” playing
experience would be like
 Customer Product Use
› Above board, well promoted, smooth running, feature packed US-facing site serves customer groups
› Software would be downloaded from poker room web portal and affiliate sites.
› Players would install poker room software on any and all of their computers – not mobile, yet
› Future complementary products: sportsbetting, blackjack (including at the poker table), casino games
› Poker room play feel is optimized for multi-hour sessions, but users can rapidly jump in and out of games
› “Auto-rebuy” settings and redeposit ease influences player session length

7.
 Product Purchase
› Real money deposits would be made via Bitcoin or Moneygram initiated through the poker room
software and supported by live chat and email support
› Potential intermediaries include Bitcoin currency exchanges (Mt Gox), instant transfer services (BitInstant,
Dwolla), online wallet accounts (Google Wallet)
› Traditional banking support services may assist in withdrawals – debit cards, paper checks (usually
Canadian banks)
› The likely trend for US players would be from Moneygram style depositing (Western Union) to instant
digital depositing
 Product Purchase Timing
› Higher deposit and play volume during happy hours, weekends, holidays – players log on in waves
following time zones
› Higher play volume occurs during World Series of Poker and other major televised poker events
› New and infrequent users spike after marketing activities like commercials or presence of a Team Infiniti
Player at a “final table”
› Tourneys and higher limit cash games are scheduled based on traffic
 Converting Non-customers
› Some players will be daunted by technology or prefer the feel and pace of live play – Infiniti poker
features and customer support can convert this group
› Some players are loyal to their existing poker site – “Grand Opening” deposit bonuses and buzz are
intended to draw in these customers
› Non-players will be intimidated by rules and fast pace – free play version of software and “educational
material” on web site addresses this group

8.
 Brand – Seals With Clubs, Pokerstars (future), Switch Poker (future)
› Online poker rooms with similar features and benefits – specifically
ones that accept Bitcoin deposits
 Product – Merge Network, Revolution Network
› Online poker rooms that allow US players through Western Union or
similar (high fee) deposit methods
 Generic – Brick & Mortar Card rooms and Casinos, Horse and dog
racing tracks, Sports books
› Live gaming options
 Budget – Video games, Play money gambling apps (Zynga), Sports,
TV, Home games, Reading
› Other activities that compete for gaming dollars or hours

9.
 Legal and Regulatory Issues
› Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 – Passage made it difficult and
potentially illegal to play online poker in the US overnight.
› Justice Department action in 2010 – Froze accounts, caused panic, widespread
banning of US players. Stock prices for public online gaming companies tanked.
› Poker Players’ Alliance - Effort by lobbying group to exempt online poker from
UIGEA and similar regulations. State laws have moved faster with many states now
explicitly allowing online poker.
› Financial Transactions – Technically, only the transfer of funds to/from poker
websites by certain means is illegal (money laundering concerns).
› Existing large gaming sites in Europe and offshore could swoop in if legislation
changes.
 Technological Advancements
› Improved and faster broadband saturation enables live webcam tables, faster
software, handling of more players and tables
› Bitcoin enables instant back and forth funds transfers
› Social networking enables communication about who is playing where and when
› Unclear what would happen if a big online player like Pokerstars were to suddenly
allow Bitcoin.

10.
 Product leadership orientation –
› Significant product advantages related to technological features
› Webcam technology enables a more live poker feel online including
reading tells and body language
› Bitcoin enables instant deposits and withdrawals, helps US players to play
without fear
 Alliance with Gavin Smith takes advantage of his significant media presence
in national televised tournaments
 Trademarked InfiniVision technology and logo help build strong brand
 Current legal situation means they are essentially the only game in town with
this level of features and service
 Positive media exposure and beta testing – far superior to direct competitors
 Company image advantages – partnering with non-profits

15.
 Primary Target – Scott, the dedicated online poker player
› ID: Scott continues to find ways to play online from the US even in a post-UIGEA
world. He frequents twoplustwo.com daily and keeps up on what poker rooms are
hot and not. He used to play at many tables and sites simultaneously for 4+ hours
each day, but now he is frustrated over the lack of players and games available.
› Basics:
 Scott needs a small to medium stakes no limit cash game with at least 4 players consistently
 Scott wants fast software, a popular poker site, easy deposit/withdrawal transactions

monitoring for collusion and robot players

reliable shuffle

home games and medium stakes no limit cash games at Hustler Casino. Twice a
year, he goes to Vegas to play in bigger tournaments. While a good player, he
hasn’t found the luck or time to win much. He doesn’t get involved in the popular
poker scene, but is solid with poker strategy. He is a very sociable player with thick
skin and an expert poker face.
› Basics:
 Mark needs a medium to high stakes tournament offered at least a few times a month with
big side games afterwards
 Mark wants the software to support player interaction similar to live play – easy betting, pop-
up chat, quick re-buying
 Mark prefers to have big fields of players who know the rules, but aren’t too tough. Slow or

the two worlds come together?” –Michael Hajduk, CEO (Pokerfuse.com)

deposits and withdrawals in Bitcoins?...there would have been no bank
involved at all - thus, no bank could have been defrauded.” –Matt Kaufman

 As measured on Pokerscount.com – compiling running averages will start after 1st week
 Milestones are set every 12 months - adjusted upwards annually
 CTO is responsible for site integrity and reporting data trends to CEO; CEO sets promotions and incentives

 Timeframe: Within first 6 months after go-live
 CMO is responsible for developing process to attract new players

23.
 Infiniti Poker is transitioning from their Development Stage into their Introduction Stage
 Due to the uniqueness of revenue generation from poker room rake and tourney fees, a
Volume-Oriented pricing objective is appropriate. High player volume and turnover is
essential.
 A penetration pricing strategy is appropriate for market introduction. Poker players are
sensitive to rake levels and fees relative to competitors. Although, there are significant
features and advantages, it would be too risky to adopt a price skimming strategy.
 The key to being able to differentiate on features and convenience is establishing a
large player pool as quickly as possible. The new features require player exposure and
word-of-mouth to gain momentum.
 Gaining market share and brand/feature acceptance is also crucial to prevent existing
large poker rooms or new upstarts from copying the business model
 Tactics:
› Patriotic promotions – deposit bonuses for Presidents’ Day, 4th of July, Thanksgiving
› Special limited time rake reductions for high volume players coming from internet forums
› Special matching bonuses and guaranteed price pool tourneys for new players coming from
SMM and traditional marketing
› Return and 2nd deposit bonuses to roll out after 90 days, tethered to player volume
› Players Club points for tourney entries, message gear (hats, shirts, hoodies), poker books, etc.

24.
 Exclusive Distribution of Core Product: Infiniti Poker will be a standalone, independent
online poker room
› Other poker rooms are joining together into networks running off of common servers and using
common deposit/withdrawal systems
› Infiniti Poker will protect its competitive advantage and by delivering its product via its proprietary
software – only available by download from their web site
› Infiniti Poker will keep costs low by relying on cutting edge deposit/withdrawal processes
› Users will have their software automatically upgraded upon log on and checked for authenticity
(to prevent user modifications to the poker room interface)
 Selective Distribution of Games: Infiniti Poker will offer No Limit Hold ’Em Cash Games
and Tourneys
› Other poker rooms spread themselves too thin trying to offer as many games as possible,
including lesser known variants with colorful names (“Pineapple”, “Pai Gow”)
› Infiniti Poker will preserve its operating margin by focusing on the core poker experience of No
Limit Hold ‘Em - this will help players not be overwhelmed by both game choice and new
features.
 Achieving Bitcoin and deposit/withdrawal intermediary objectives are critical to distribution/supply
chain strategy – potential partners will be motivated via rakeback deals and supply agreements
where possible
 Having a visibly distinct product (NOT a “skin” on one of the existing networks) will help differentiate
Infiniti Poker and preserve their autonomy in rolling out new features and offers as they move into their
Growth Stage

25.
 Strategy - Infiniti Poker is the easy, legal way to play real poker online in the US
› Tailored specifically to primary and secondary target markets – aiming to rapidly increase brand
awareness, communicate ease of use, and demonstrate unique features
› End result is large numbers of new players trying Infiniti Poker
 Component Objectives in the Introduction Stage
› Pull strategy – focus on generating player volumes
 Partnerships with financial intermediaries triggered by size of player pool
 IT/server expansion scaled with play volumes – balanced approach to contain costs with some risk of server
overload if demand is great
› Significant Internet and Print Advertising– key poker websites, forums, publications
 75/25 mix of Product/Institutional Advertising for primary target – drive traffic on features for existing players
 50/50 mix for secondary target – drive traffic on convenience/experience for players not currently playing online
› Initial large sales promotion to drive players to install and make initial deposits
› Public relations – Mostly secondary to advertising; handling “technical” communication
› Personal selling – Customer support to streamline deposits for high volume players
 Significant budget in the early stages to generate awareness and drive traffic
› Initial budget should be based on an Objectives and Tasks Approach with phases and milestones
to release rounds of funds
 Phase 1 – drawn from start up capital – sufficient to reach primary and secondary targets primarily through
internet and print communication channels. Milestone – Goal 1, Objectives 1 and 2
 Phase 2 – drawn primarily from early revenue – Reach referrals and follow-on targets. Milestone – Goal 1,
Objective 3
› After initial volume targets are reached, transition to a Percentage of Sales Approach
 To coincide with strategic shift towards player retention, loyalty, and per player play volume boosting
 Phase 3 – scaled budget from ongoing revenue stream – Hook customers for the long run. Milestone – Goal 2

 Implementation as Organizational Culture – Infiniti Poker is a startup company; Leadership
Team will implement early phases of the plan directly; Blurring of technical, operational, and marketing
lines requires deep and direct understanding of company’s strategy
 Shared Goals and Values – Poker is a great way to have fun, challenge one’s skills, and socialize.
Infiniti Poker employee’s believe they are bringing something positive and valuable back to the US that
was unfortunately taken away by big banks and the Feds.
 Centralized Marketing Structure – CEO will keep tight control in order to manage marketing
message in company’s early stages. Due to the newness of the technology and financial processes,
the CEO will be involved in day-to-day decision-making for operational and legal reasons as well.
 Structural changes needed to implement strategy:
› The org chart should be adjusted to be explicitly flat underneath the CEO
› Also call out critical cross-functional teams assigned to early phase goals and objectives (requiring IT, marketing, and
game operational expertise simultaneously)
› Outside consultants should be relied on to tackle specific, unique challenges as they arise rather than adding roles –
at least until initial player base is established – rate of change will be too high
 Internal marketing activities:
› Employee training – Specifically in framing the Infiniti Poker-Bitcoin experience as convenient, drawing on players’
familiarity with live poker
› Employee motivation – Significant commission and referral incentives to drive up player volume; Employee tourneys
› Overcoming resistance to change – Training and role-playing to demo the approach; focus groups; mentoring and
early interacts with real players
› Internal communication – CEO will post on company’s internal SM network; allows for interaction from CEO to
employees and employees amongst themselves
