Hot off the release of Hard Rock's migration, PlayTech has issued a press release announcing the new partnership.

What makes this deal even more significant is that this is the first online casino Playtech has launched in the Tier-1 Jurisdiction of the Alderney Gaming Control Commission.  For those who are not familiar with Alderney's role in the online casino gambling industry, they are are one of the strictest regulating bodies in the business.  For online gamblers, this means that PlayTech software is operating by the highest standards of fairness and security on the Web.

In addition to migrating their players over to the new online gaming platform, which Hard Rock said was a seamless and professional engagement, the online casino has joined the Winajackpot.com network of PlayTech online casinos offering the latest progressive jackpots.  By doing so, not only do the PlayTech jackpots promise to get even bigger, they promise to pay out more as well.  With the New Generation platform, Hard Rock Online Casino is offering over eighty-five super-graphical casino games with sophisticated real-time ticker updates, as well as multi-window gambling and online betting with live dealers.

Both companies are excited about the partnership.  Hard Rock spokesperson, Steven Humphries said the casino is looking forward to using the multilingual and currency capabilities of the software's back-end capacity, which will help them realize their ambitions of reaching the international online gambling community.  As for PlayTech, they are very pleased to now be associated with a highly recognized and esteemed gambling brand such as Hard Rock, which operates casinos in Las Vegas, Hollywood, London, Manchester, Biloxi and Tampa.
