Trump Plaza opens poker room17 June 2008ATLANTIC CITY, New Jersey -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Trump Plaza dropped the ropes recently, on its latest area for casino games, The East Tower Poker Room . The room will debut twelve PokerPro® tables later this month, pending approval by the NJ State Casino Control Commission. Poker is a new gaming addition at The Trump Plaza Casino and the addition of PokerPro® is going to attract both the traditional poker players as well as those who have been curious about the game, but didn't have the opportunity to get into some of the city's bustling poker rooms—until now. "The Poker Room at Trump Plaza will be the latest location for poker buffs to play in Atlantic City, just steps off the Boardwalk," commented Jim Rigot, General Manager for Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino. "Our state-of-the-art poker room will have competitive game offerings, flat screen televisions, a comfortable lounge, with convenient food and beverage offerings and low-limit blackjack tables. When you consider the increased hands per hour and a $3.00 rake, it becomes an obvious choice for even the most seasoned players." Rigot added. PokerPro® is the latest in casino games technology, featuring an automated poker game, where hands are dealt electronically to players seated at a traditional-style poker table that can accommodate ten. There is a clear view of the pot size and chip count during this interactive game. PokerTek, Inc., the industry pioneer and worldwide leader in automated poker tables and related software, announced in recent weeks that they have signed a contract with Trump Plaza to offer PokerPro® for field trial. "Trump Plaza has done an amazing job transforming this new room and crafting the perfect combination of amenities that are sure to make it a premier poker destination," said Chris Halligan, PokerTek CEO. "We are proud to enter our New Jersey field trial with Trump Plaza, and look forward to introducing the speed, accuracy and cool new features of automated poker to the poker players of Atlantic City."
