FCP Bob 1,312 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 PokerStars plans to add $10 million poker room at Resorts casino By DONALD WITTKOWSKI Staff Writer Online global gambling giant PokerStars plans to make a big splash in the Atlantic City market by building a $10 million poker room as part of its Internet partnership with Resorts Casino Hotel. Company spokesman William J. Pascrell III said construction would start on the poker room immediately after PokerStars is awarded a New Jersey license for Internet gambling. “As soon as the license is in hand, they’re ready to start building,” Pascrell said. “It will be the PokerStars poker room at Resorts.” PokerStars and Resorts are looking to create synergy between their online betting enterprise and bricks-and-mortar operations. The new poker room is seen as a way of drawing online gamblers to Resorts to play in live poker tournaments. Resorts hasn’t had live poker since early 2010.

That started out as a joke, but then I thought why not, it might bring in new people who are intimidated by a real money table. And it would teach them to play every hand and really suck! Genius!
