<%% img=whoop_ass_poker.jpg caption=Whoop Ass Poker now uses Carmanah's LED edgelit table gaming signs alt=Whoop Ass Poker now uses Carmanah's LED edgelit table gaming signs align=RIGHT width=200 %%>Whoop Ass Poker (www.whoopasspoker.com), operated by Don Holman of Los Angeles, California, was recently granted a license to distribute a table game version of Whoop Ass Poker in casino properties in the state of Mississippi. However, prior to receiving the license, Mr. Holman was required to present his game concept to casino management and he selected Carmanah’s LED Sign Group to build the corresponding table games sign for the presentation.

Carmanah produced a double-sided LED edgelit table game sign based on the company’s logo, which depicts an angry Jackass with its rear hoofs ready to kick. Mr. Holman was able to impress management with the professional look of the table game and was granted a distribution license.

Whoop Ass Poker has since requested a number of additional units to be created. “Everyone loves `Carmanah’s` signs… they look great and we all love them!”, Mr. Holman stated to Tim Quan, Business Development Manager with Carmanah’s LED Sign Group. “Get ready, I will ordering even more when we get approved in Nevada.”

About Carmanah’s LED Edgelit Table Gaming Signs

Carmanah can create high-impact table game signs to match any gaming facility’s interior design and architectural theme. Carmanah’s sign technology is currently in use at more than 450 gaming establishments worldwide, including casinos, racinos and cruise ships, etc. Carmanah’s low-profile LED sign technology provides some major advantages over other lighting technologies, including:

 

  • Unique LED edge-lighting technology that is extremely bright with unparalleled clarity. Even in a loud, bustling gaming environment, Carmanah’s signs stand out and draws attention.
