After months of eager anticipation, online poker giant PartyGaming announced today that it has launched its integrated gaming platform, which will allow players to switch effortlessly between its poker and casino sites. Recognizing that poker, while thus far an undeniably lucrative venture, is still somewhat limited in scope, PartyGaming saw fit to open its poker offerings to casino games as well. On the new platform, users will be able to play at both Party Poker, PartyGaming's principal online poker site, and the company's new online casino, Party Casino, using a single account.

In addition to the shared purse feature of the new platform, Party Poker players will also benefit from more immediate access to poker tables, easier navigation, and multiple game screens without overlap. The company also announced that new games as well as increased currency and language compatibility were in store for the new combination poker/casino platform.
