PokerTek Installs Automated Poker Tables at Excalibur
August 20, 2008
Excalibur Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas is installing 12 PokerPro tables. Excalibur
is both the first casino in Nevada
to install automated poker tables and the official field trial site for
PokerPro in the state. Pending final regulatory inspection and approval,
Excalibur plans to open the new room Friday, August 22 at 6 p.m.
“We are delighted beyond words that an
operator of Excalibur’s quality is opening a 100 percent PokerPro poker room on
the Strip. It is commentary on how far PokerTek and automated poker have come
in such a short time,” said PokerTek’s CEO Chris Halligan. “The acceptance of
the game has grown substantially in the last year and continues to grow as our
footprint expands.”
“We continue to hit major milestones,” Halligan
continued. “We’ve opened a successful 20-plus table room in Montreal,
a beautiful 12 table room in Michigan, a
high-end 12-table room in Atlantic City and now
12 tables in the gaming hub of the world, Las
Vegas. With more than 230 PokerPro tables currently
installed worldwide, we are ready for the Nevada market.”
