Posted in Gambling News at 3:16 am by webmaster

The TimesOnline website in the UK is reporting that HARRAH’s is preparing itself for an entry into online gambling.

Harrah’s, the Las Vegas gaming group that owns Caesars Palace is employing Mitch Garber, a former chief executive of Party Gaming, as the head of a new company formed to house its internet operations and the popular World Series of Poker.

The real world gaming giant is spinning these businesses out into a newly-created entity.

The move is likely to fuel speculation over the possibility of Harrah’s making acquisitions in the online-gaming sector. Many observers think it is simply a matter of time before online gambling is legalised in America.
