Bally Technologies’ first i-gaming platform is now live and powering a free-play poker website in partnership with Golden Nugget casinos in Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
The website is one of the first free-play poker sites in the US driven by a licensed gaming manufacturer.
“This is a very monumental time for the Golden Nugget as we launch a play-for-free site and introduce our loyal patrons to a new way to enjoy gaming entertainment when they can’t be on property,” said Golden Nugget chairman and owner Tilman Fertitta. “We believe that online gaming is inevitable in the US and that our free-play site will enable the Golden Nugget to be well positioned to compete when US laws allow for online gaming.”
The progression of Bally’s i-gaming platform in the coming months will enable the Golden Nugget to have an integrated solution within its Bally mobile, online, and traditional system offerings.
“We’re thrilled to partner with the Golden Nugget as they leverage their free-play site to attract new players and drive existing players back to their land-based casinos,” said Richard Haddrill, Bally Technologies’ CEO. “This partnership will demonstrate the advantages of having an open i-gaming platform, which allows for best-in-class content.
