Regulated online poker was officially launced in Denmark today as bwin.party partnered with the state-run casino operator Danske Spil.

Jim Ryan and Norbert Teufelberger, co-chief executive officers of bwin.party said, “Building on our recent announcement regarding deals with both MGM and Boyd in the US market, this is another important milestone in the execution of our stated strategy that is focused on securing leadership positions in regulated and to-be-regulated markets.

|We are delighted that DLS has recognised our expertise and high standards of business practice and we look forward to building a market-leading customer offer for the Danish consumer.”

Analyst Daniel Stewart & Co, was positive about the deal for bwin.party, saying “Danske Spil has a significant presence due to its brand recognition and monopoly status with Danish players, and boasts >600,000 registered online users, so this should make for a robust market for BPTY as a result.”
