Software and gaming content developer GameAccount Network has agreed a deal with Parx Casino to launch a simulated gaming online experience for new nationwide customers and for existing patrons in the US state of Pennsylvania.

Parx Casino, Pennsylvania

Parx Casino, owned by Greenwood Racing, is a racetrack and casino property in Bensalem, Pennsylvania.

The simulated gaming site will go live in the fourth quarter of 2014, subject to approvals, and will enable players across the US to play casino slots online.

If and when real-money gaming is legalised in Pennsylvania and other states – subject to interstate agreements – Parx’s simulated gaming will be ready for immediate upgrade.

John Dixon, CTO of Greenwood Entertainment and Racing, said: “GameAccount has demonstrated its regulated gaming capability in New Jersey and the merits of simulated gaming when integrated with a casino management system.

“By deploying its system on-property, Parx Casino will have the opportunity to launch simulated gaming nationwide before year's end and be well prepared in the event regulation of real-money internet gaming emerges in the state of Pennsylvania.”
