Full Tilt Poker signs Deal with Stations Casinos

Another piece of good news for online poker in the United States: Full Tilt Poker has signed a deal with Stations Casinos cementing a partnership to lobby for poker regulation and eventually operate an online poker site in the U.S. when regulation passes.

This news comes after the announcement that Full Tilt's rival, PokerStars signed a deal with casino giant Steve Wynn and is viewed as another important development towards regulation of online poker in the U.S. Having both PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker as voices in pending legislation should help ensure that the regulations are not too restrictive for a healthy poker environment and still protect consumers from abuses.
