GGPoker acquires new licences in Lithuania and the Philippines

GGPoker, one of the world’s largest online poker networks, has recently secured two new licences in the Philippines and Lithuania.

Jean-Christophe Antas, Head of GGPoker, commented on the new ventures: “We are thrilled to announce our expansion into Lithuania and the Philippines. These new licences will allow us to reach more players and offer them a world-class online poker experience. We are committed to providing our players with the best possible gaming experience, and we look forward to welcoming players from these new markets to the GGPoker community.”

Expanding into the Baltic region with OlyBet

In addition to its new venture into the Philippine market, GGPoker has also extended its reach into the Baltic region through a partnership with OlyBet.

This partnership allows GGPoker to offer its services in Lithuania under the OlyBet brand, complementing its existing presence in Estonia, Latvia, and one Nordic country, Finland.

OlyBet is?owned by an Estonian company, Olympic Entertainment Group, one of the largest casino operators in the Baltic region.

The Philippine market

GGPoker’s entry into the Philippine market marks the launch of the country’s very first legal real-money online poker platform. The license was granted by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), a state-owned entity responsible for regulating gaming activities in the country.

Paul Burke, Head of PR at GGPoker, expressed enthusiasm about the launch: “GGPoker is proud to confirm that we’ve secured a license from PAGCOR and have launched the country’s very first legal real-money online poker platform.”

The company recently acquired the intellectual property rights of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) from Caesars Entertainment, Inc., a deal valued at $500 million.
