Playtech (LSE: PTEC), the international designer, developer, licensor
and provider of software and services for the online, mobile, TV and
land-based gaming industry, celebrates its winning of four prizes at EGR
B2B Awards last Thursday night as Playtech leads the way and wins more
prizes than any other candidates.
EGR B2B Awards is an annual award competition dedicated to naming the
best service providers and B2B operators in the online gaming industry
while setting the standards of excellence for all online gaming
products.
Entrants are judged by a selection of CEOs, MDs, and board directors of
public companies, highly successful entrepreneurs, innovators and key
advisors.
Playtech has worked very hard over the past year to win the following
awards: Bingo supplier of the year, Poker network of the year, Slot
provider of the year and Bingo network of the year.
Playtech prides itself on offering innovative products and invested
heavily in the past year to ensure its products are best of breed. In
2012 Virtue Fusion, Playtech’s Bingo division invested a further €8m* in
research and development of the Bingo solution. Such development
enabled Playtech to launch features such as the syndicate Bingo, mobile
Bingo, 6 new Bingo sites, 2 new bespoke Bingo variants, battle of clubs
functionality, Multi-Stake Bingo and many more.
In the slots arena Playtech’s innovation continues to shine with the
new feature Everybody’s Jackpot. The concept behind Everybody’s Jackpot
is that every player who played within the last 24 hours and placed the
minimum bet will win a share of the jackpot, making everybody a winner.
Additionally Playtech launched a variety of top tier branded slots
featuring all-time favourites such as Marilyne Monroe, John Wayne, Thor
and Monty Python’s Spamalot to name a few.
In the Poker space Playtech has introduced a variety of features to
optimize its network. Such features include Speed Hold'em, Personal
Player Inbox, Players' VIP Progress Bar, Poker Calendar, My Friends, My
Tokens and Anonymous table.

honour to win these awards at the EGR B2B Awards and to be recognised by
the global online B2B gaming community for the innovative work that our
