Party Poker and Drag The Bar marketers have come up with a synergistic promo to help players improve their skills.

The online poker training site has partnered with Party Poker to create a new program called "DTB4FREE" that allows players to get free poker training at Drag The Bar.

To participate, players opt-in at the Drag The Bar.com site once they have earned a thousand loyalty points a month playing real money Party Poker games online. The online poker provider will then foot the bill for the players' further training at DTB.

David Levy, a Party Poker marketing executive, said this week: "Drag The Bar is a cutting edge poker training site, and I know our players will benefit greatly from all its site has to offer. We want our players to not only have fun, but also perform well at our tables, so we are thrilled to make this free offer available."

"We're very excited to be working with Party, and I know this will be the start of a long-term relationship for both companies." said Drag The Bar CEO Hunter Bick. "But more importantly, this is a big win for poker players. Everyone's goal is to make more money, and high quality poker training is the best the way to fast-track your progress and start crushing the games. By providing free training, Party is investing in their players' futures and offering them a tremendous value."

Drag The Bar is currently offering an additional 3 free DTB months and 4 free poker books for anyone who signs up for a new Party Poker account, makes a deposit, and earns 200 Party points. The training company has over 25 coaches and offers strong content in limit and no-limit cash games, tournaments and sit & goes. It currently releases between 35 and 40 videos a month, so each form of poker gets its fair share of content.

Drag The Bar.com's training videos are compatible with Apple and Android products. Alongside poker, the site also offers backgammon, coached by world champion Bill Robertie.
