Entraction network renamed
Move follows last summer's takeover of the Swedish network by the American-based supplier.

IGT has renamed the Entraction network the IGT Poker Network.
The move comes several months after the US-based gaming machines supplier purchased the Swedish-founded network for approximately £70m.
Operators with skins on the network include Purple Lounge and BetVictor, although the latter has opened a second poker offering with Microgaming after Entraction moved to block players from selected countries last September.
Earlier this month IGT, which is one of seven applicants for a Nevada service provider licence along with Bally Technologies, and Shuffle Master, agreed to purchase social games developer Double Down Interactive for up to US$500m.
