Golden Nugget operates four hotels and casinos in the US, in Atlantic City, Las Vegas, Laughlin and Biloxi. A fifth venue was recently announced for a site in Louisiana.

Under the terms of the agreement, Amaya will receive a share of the revenue generated from the sites - all subject to necessary regulatory requirements and approvals.

Thomas Winter, vice president online gaming of Landry's Inc, which operates Golden Nugget, said: "We intend to be a preferred early stage operator of real-money online gaming as regulation progresses in the US, initially in New Jersey and Nevada.

“To thrive in this market, we need to deliver a best-in-class online and mobile player experience.”

David Baazov, Amaya CEO, added: "This deal expands our existing partnership with Golden Nugget through the addition of our casino product to their poker offering; a result of both the quality of our offering and our strategic partnerships with both Bally and SHFL."
