I think this is one more prove that Amaya really doing great in the last years. They've own some of the most famous names in the gambling industry and in all areas of the business like poker, casino and sportsbook sites so this will be another important step for them in becoming to a monster company.

I think this is one more prove that Amaya really doing great in the last years. They've own some of the most famous names in the gambling industry and in all areas of the business like poker, casino and sportsbook sites so this will be another important step for them in becoming to a monster company. They are in the battle of the acquisition of Bwin too so that could effect over the future price of their shares.

Been reading much about Amaya Gaming lately. Buying PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker. They are spending their energies on California and New Jersey, both of which could desperately use a cash infusion from online gaming. I haven't heard of a price set as yet for the Amaya stock.

Been reading much about Amaya Gaming lately. Buying PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker. They are spending their energies on California and New Jersey, both of which could desperately use a cash infusion from online gaming. I haven't heard of a price set as yet for the Amaya stock. I did hear that Gov Chris Christy is delaying or blocking regulatory approval due to his relationship with the infamous Sheldon Adelson. Oh my god, what is he thinking. Christy needs to get back on track and let Amaya Gaming get on with business, but in the mean time, everything else is looking good for this company. They may go down in history being one of the pioneers of online gaming in the USA............. I look forward to seeing them on Nasdaq and good luck to them.
