A new online gambling platform has been introduced at the Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut, but with one catch……you won’t be able to play for real money.
Instead the concept will allow individuals to win discounts to the hotel and casino.
From the Hartford Courant:
The online platform features slot games with names like "King of Bling," "Crazy Money," and "Girls Day Out," advertised with a sparsely dressed, platinum-blonde woman holding an armful of gift packages. In order to play, you have to sign up for a Foxwoods Rewards Card, which requires your name, address and some identifying number, such as Social Security or a driver's license number.
Foxwoods announced its partnership with GameAccount Network to launch the "first ever Simulated Gaming" online casino experience in the U.S. The Internet casino is called FoxPlay.
Connecticut is one of a handful of states that has tinkered with the idea of allowing real money Web gambling. Current laws require the state to share a percentage of revenue with Tribal operators.
