Paddy Power has its Eye on New Jersey

Paddy Power has been approved for a Nevada intrastate online poker license and now has its eye on the New Jersey market. It has submitted an application for an online gambling license according to a Paddy Power representative. "We want to make sure that we're in place and ready," said communications director Paddy Power and son of the company's founder David Power. "We have applied for the licence to be in there, and we'll then see what is viable. We're putting ourselves in position." Paddy Power has placed Eamonn Toland in charge of a team, as president of gambling and casinos in North America, to stay abreast of opportunities within the area.
