Now I’m not necessarily advocating card counting, because live casinos don’t like it when you card count. (I won’t tell on you if you try though), and I know that you can’t use card counting at an online casino. It just won’t work. See, in order to count cards, you have to know how many [...]
While how much money people spend on gambling may not seem like a big thing, it’s one of the things the world is watching to see how the economy is recovering.

Now it seems that an announcement has been made by Groupe Bernard Tapie that they ended the negotiations with Full Tilt because they couldn’t work out details on how to pay back [...]
The question is now out – will social media be the next big push for online gambling? Last post I wrote about Playtech’s plans to move into social gaming and the stock drop caused by some of their planned acquisitions. While companies seem to have faith in social media, stock holders are a bit more [...]
Playtech is well known in the gambling community as a game developer and supplier for many top notch online casinos.
