“Cake Poker has been operating and hosting our games for quite some time now," the message reads. "I’m sure you will agree that they have done a fantastic job. We are happy to announce that we are merging our players with Cake Poker.”

Players were informed that on logging into Third Bullet Poker they will be redirected automatically to download an update. This will implement their transfer over to the Cake Poker database and management system, where the players' login information will remain unchanged, and any funds in the playing account will be reflected. Those players who already have seperate Cake Poker accounts will find that their Third Bullet account has been integrated with the Cake Poker account.

Other than general comment about the player benefits of the merge, the email gave little real information on the reasons for the takeover. It does advise players that Cake Poker staff will be in contact with them soon, and that all future enquiries should be directed to Cake Poker.
