That dreaded day is here...or maybe not dreaded, if they keep the bonus clearing terms. Received this email today:

Dear player,
This is a very important announcement about your ParadisePoker account.
From Thursday May 24th 2007, your poker account will change forever as ParadisePoker move to a new and improved software.
In 2004 Sportingbet PLC group purchased ParadisePoker and we are now merging all our players on to one improved poker standard: the NEW ParadisePoker. This means more players, more action and more ways for you to win!
Login any time from Thursday using your existing username and password and after a very short upgrade process you will be taken to the new Paradise Lobby. It is important to note that you will still be playing on new software so navigating the lobby and playing at the tables will be slightly different to what you are used to.
The new ParadisePoker will offer you enhanced graphics which are easier on the eye for those long sessions in front of your screen. We will also introduce a new chip transfer system offering more funding methods and easier management of your money.
Your new Sportingbet/ParadisePoker account will now also allow you to play in the NEW ParadiseCasino & Blackjack and place sports wagers through the award winning Sportingbet.com. Your existing account balance and bonuses will be transferred automatically.
The new ParadisePoker will offer you exclusive promotions such as Paradise RUSH where one player will win a shopping spree worth €100,000, The New World where one player will walk away with the $100,000 first prize, Monday Night Takedown (the biggest bounty tournament on the net) and WSOP Last Chance.

Best Regards,
ParadisePoker
A Sportingbet brand.
