Foxwoods Partners with Game Account Network to Launch Free Play Online Casino

Game Account Network, one of the leading online gambling software providers, has gotten into a partnership with Foxwoods Casino in a bid to gain the benefits of a regulated US online gambling industry. The company, which is headquartered in the UK, signed a deal with Foxwoods owners Mashantucket Pequot Tribe, according to the terms of which Game Account Network will supply the software Foxwoods requires to launch an online casino.

Since Massachusetts has not yet legalized online gambling, the Foxwoods online casino will be available for fun play only. According to a statement released by the tribe, the online casino will convert into a real money gambling site only if Massachusetts passes an online gambling bill and creates regulations for online gaming.

Critics, however, have pointed out that all free players do not become real money players even after free play casinos become real money casinos.

Offshore online gambling companies are grabbing all opportunities to gain entry into the US market ever since individual US states began rushing to intrastate online gambling. So far, online gambling bills have been passed in states such as Nevada, Delaware, and New Jersey, and states such as California, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania are considering the pros and cons of legalizing online gambling.
