Playtech, an online blackjack and casino gaming software provider that designs top-quality online poker, baccarat, blackjack, and slot machine games, announced that its financial performance in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 2011 was exceptionally good. The online software giant is now mulling over the idea of expanding its business by entering into partnership deals with online gaming operators that provide blackjack and other games. Accordingly, Playtech (see the no deposit offers here) is now holding talks with US-based potential partners.

Playtech also announced that it has already signed deals with partners in South Africa and Germany. According to Mor Wiezer, CEO for Playtech, the online gaming software developer is getting prepared to accept regulatory challenges in the market. Playtech, which recently acquired Geneity, the sportsbook developer, plans to offer mobile sports betting services and products.

The company’s major rival at present is Microgaming, but Playtech believes that its excellent financial performance and acquisitions will put it several steps ahead of Microgaming. Both Microgaming and Playtech offer online casino games such as slots and online table games such as blackjack and baccarat to online casino sites.

Both Playtech and Microgaming are getting ready to expand into the mobile gaming sector, and the competition between the two will definitely herald innovative and exciting experiences for blackjack players.
