Swedish online poker network and software supplier Ongame Network Limited has moved into the Irish market after signing a partnership agreement with Bruce Betting Limited.

Ongame Network is a member of Vienna-based Bwin Interactive Entertainment, a leading provider of online gaming entertainment, and stated that the licensing agreement is in line with its long-term strategic goal of targeting new markets through deals with established brands. Bruce Betting was formed in 1977 and is one of the fastest-growing independent bookmakers in Ireland with over 60 outlets nationwide.

“We are delighted to bring them aboard and are looking forward to delivering an unrivalled online poker experience to their customers,” said Kevin O’Neal, Press Officer for Ongame Network.

The deal will see Bruce Betting launch BrucePoker.com and fully integrate it with Ongame Network’s aggregated poker network.
