    Playtech was the first software provider to complete the 'Collaudo'
testing process for casino, in compliance with Italy's regulatory body AAMS.
In the last two days a number of key licensees, including Sisal, SNAI,
Buongiorno, WHO and TNT launched their Playtech-powered casino offering for
the Italian players.

    Featuring all of Playtech's leading gaming content, along with a suite
of operational tools created in compliance with Italian regulations, the
casino equips operators with a competitive and attractive offering for this
new market.

    Playtech has enjoyed a substantial presence in the Italian market since
2008, with its iPoker.it poker network offering fully-compliant tournament
poker to the region's leading operators. With the new regulation of cash
tables, licensees including SNAI, SISAL, Eurobet, Cogetech and BetClic can
now offer their players cash table play, supported by iPoker.it's Un Million
Per Tutti promotion, offering players the chance to win EUR1 million.

    Mor Weizer, Playtech's Chief Executive, commented: "The Italian market
continues to be a major constituent of the European regulated environment,
and we are happy to further strengthen our position there with the addition
of cash table poker and casino. Our innovative and fully-compliant gaming
product enables licensees to benefit from the extensive opportunities that
the regulated Italian market has to offer."
