London?s new Hippodrome Casino has struck deals with two of the biggest names in online gaming, PokerStars and Microgaming. The deals will create an online presence for the Hippodrome and enhance the new casino?s live poker room offering.
Simon Thomas, Hippodrome Casino Founder & Chairman, said, ?We are delighted to welcome PokerStars and Microgaming into the Hippodrome Casino family. They bring unrivalled online profile and expertise that will allow us to harness the true potential of a bricks-and-mortar venue and its online presence.?
PokerStars, the worlds? largest online poker site, will refurbish and re-brand the poker deck at the Hippodrome Casino to create the UK?s first PokerStars? poker room. In 2013, the Hippodrome will become home to a range of new PokerStars? sponsored tournaments and special events.
PokerStars has also taken a minority stakeholding in the Hippodrome Casino as part of the deal.
Guy Templer, PokerStars Group Strategy Director, said his company?s expertise and success in both online and live poker makes partnering with Hippodrome a natural. ?The Hippodrome has dramatically raised the quality bar for the UK casino industry. Together we will give poker players the same great poker experience, live 24/7 in the heart of London that they get from PokerStars online.?
Microgaming will build www.hippodromecasino.com, which will be operated by Betway Group and introduce an unrivalled suite of games and mobile gaming applications. Online poker on the site will be provided by Pokerstars.
Roger Raatgever, Microgaming CEO, commented, ?Microgaming is proud to have been selected as the exclusive provider of online gaming software to the iconic London brand Hippodrome. The convergence of offline and online gaming is a trend that Microgaming has been at the forefront of for some time now and we are delighted to be able to provide a bespoke online casino to The Hippodrome, giving their players a first class cross-platform gaming experience.?
The Hippodrome Casino launched on July 13 this year in London?s Leicester Square.
