On Thursday, the Golden Nugget, located in Downtown Las Vegas, acquired a license to operate real-money web poker. It will run its games via a partnership with Bally Technologies.

The brick-and-mortar property is one of the city’s oldest casinos, opening way back in 1946. The Golden Nugget started offering a free-play poker site earlier this yer.

Its games were run by Chiligaming, which has been acquired by Bally Technologies.

In addition to the Golden Nugget, Fertitta Interactive, which is under the umbrella of Station Casinos, as well as Boyd Interactive Gaming, received licenses Thursday.

Bally Technologies, a business-to-business provider, was licensed this summer.

Sounds like it is finally coming together and it's about time ! It can't happen fast enough for me . I just hope they have a play money section to get a feel for there set up if there any thing like ZEN ENTERTAINMENT with all there problems servers messing up lost connections when playing tournaments FOR CASH PRIZES all most all the time,than I want no part of the money side of it. I will catch the cat and go play live at Binions down town !
