Recently we have seen two mergers between several online casino groups. These acquisitions show that the analysts predictions of an important consolidation in the online gambling industry were true. This market is growing everyday and we are far away from the state our preferred online casinos were having at the beginning. Industry consolidation is an important step as it 'usually' profits to the players.
One of the acquisitions is the Leisure Casinos Group, which has been purchased by The Palace Group. The Palace Group currently owns and manages several Microgaming Casinos: the Spin Palace Casino, Ruby Fortune and Spin Palace Poker. The portofolio of online casinos purchased from the Leisure Casinos is: Piggs Online Casino, Mummys Gold Casino, Jackpots in a Flash Casino and Poker333. The Palace Group has proven to be a respectable and honest operation, all online casinos purchased will normally integrate the same standards of management.
On an another side, the King Solomons Group (owning 3 RTG Casinos: King Solomons, Geisha Lounge and Grand Aces Casino) has acquired the Windows Casino Group, representing Windows Casino, Gold Key, Hampton Casino, Portofino Casino and Magic Oasis. Now, all the products of the new conglomerate will come under the same management policies and be required to adhere to the same standards as the rest of the King Solomons Casino Group.
Windows Casino was having a bad reputation in the past, but it seems that it has changed of management, even before this acquisition. Now, the bad actions of the previous management should be completely forgotten. We will get more information about this and will let you know if Windows Casino can now be trusted.
