Two Online Poker Rooms Stay by Playtech
When it was announced on January 2 that Playtech Limited had hit upon a four year software license agreement with PartyGaming, thoughts of who among the PartyGaming Group would jump ship naturally came to mind, especially for those parties who held stock in the gambling company. It turns out that two sites will remain as part of the fold, notably Fair Poker and Noble Poker, both currently using the Playtech system. Operations will continue as usual, and players should not notice any changes in the way they view or use the Playtech powered software.
