The amount of the transaction amounted to 1.1 billion. Pounds, a record in countries where gambling situation is still not completely defined, as it is not illegal, but it is completely legal and no one will call.

New Jersey (New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement – DGE), GVC company should strictly go through quite a rigorous application process. The company just wants to freely conduct business in the state.

Currently DGE allows partypoker carry out their activities in the state, as the online poker room is a partner in the Borgata. However, the Director General of GVC, Kenny Alexander in an interview expressed quite unexpected position.

USD., in this case for cashing his winnings to the user will have to pay a fee of 810 dollars.
