Online Blackjack Gets Golden Handshake
Get21 Ltd has announced its arrival into the online gaming industry with the introduction of its new online multiplayer Blackjack tournaments, which will operate on the RNG Gaming Ltd software platform in which online casino operator Golden Palace is an investor and partner.
The new website will look to capitalise on the worldwide appeal and growing enthusiasm for land-based Blackjack, which has already seen the American television network CBS launching a weekly-televised Blackjack tournament, which premiered on September 16 this year.
Idan Miller, Get21 CEO, and previously senior VP of Marketing and sales at Zone4Play, explained, “The recent advent of Blackjack tournaments marks the beginning of a new era in online gaming. The ability to go head-to-head with other players has been long anticipated by Blackjack fans, and we aim at becoming the leading brand of the Blackjack tournaments world,” he said.
“The potential of Blackjack tournaments injects much positivism into the current industry climate and together with Golden Palace we look forward to its success.”
Get21.com, owned by Gaming Ventures Plc, will allow up to 5 people to play against each other, from single and multi-table ‘Sit & Go’ tournaments to scheduled tournaments with big jackpot prizes.
The website is launching its Blackjack tournament service only to non-US players.
