Golden Nugget has expanded their portfolio and brought some novelty and more variety to their players in the United States.
As the operator of its own Live Studio in Atlantic City, which was powered by Ezugi, and being among the first to use Live Dealer game category, Golden Nugget has evolved to become one of the most successful online casino operators in the United States.
In addition to that, Golden Nugget owns many premier casino resorts and are stationed in cities such as Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Laughlin, Biloxi and Lake Charles. This agreement will allow players to have access to authentic Evolution Gaming titles such as Dream Catcher, Side Bet City and Top Card.
The titles will be an expansion for Golden Nugget’s live games library which include Live Roulette, Blackjack, Unlimited Blackjack, Baccarat, Casino Hold’em and Three Card Poker titles.
The deal also says that many operators who are partnered with the venue, and are served by Golden Nugget live casino, will have access to Evolution’s portfolio.
Both brands are thrilled about the partnership and believe that they will achieve even more as the US online gaming legislation improves.
