“The new tool for Android allows me to also play on my smartphone,” said David Janssen, member of the Golden Team, a team of amateur poker players sponsored by goldenpalace.be. “We have looked forward to this and the gaming experience is fantastic: fast and user friendly.”
“We’ve been first into every market opened so far,” said Peter Bertilsson, Managing Director at Ongame. “Ongame was one of the first to offer online poker in Belgium, and also the first to offer a complete mobile offering.
