11 August 2008

PokerTek, a developer and manufacturer of electronic poker products, has announced its first PokerPro installation in Indiana.

The system, which is an electronic poker table, will be added to the newly renovated Horseshoe Casino Chicagoland and marks the first automated poker system in the state.

"One of our primary goals for this expansion was to bring in the latest gaming technology to meet the demands of our players," said Rick Mazer, Horseshoe Casino’s Indiana regional president and general manager, in a prepared statement. "PokerPro fits our needs perfectly, while allowing us total flexibility to adjust game offerings and tournament schedules."
