Grand Banks Casino Transformation Means Big Business:
Software Launch, Jurisdiction Change Announced

July 15, 2002 - Curacao, Dutch Antilles - Grand Banks Casino today upgraded its casino with the newest software available from PlayTech N.V. The downloadable PlayTech software, known in the industry for its sophisticated backend and ability to provide players with progressive slots and video poker, replaced the casino's RTG platform.

"All signs have indicated that progressive slots and greater interactivity are the most important features to our players - and Grand Banks Casino is excited to meet this demand," said Casino Manager Clarence Evans. "This change is a necessary one in order to keep on the pulse of online gaming."

The decision to switch came after reviewing the many advantages the new software could offer the site and its gamers. In addition to larger jackpot potential, the upgrade at Grand Banks Casino meant the site could expand to host 49 games, track and reward loyal customers more efficiently, and allow players additional interactivity in the form of player chat options and multiplayer, multi-handed blackjack and Caribbean poker games. The software also proved to be very proficient in the everyday behind-the-scenes management of the casino.

"Businesses that stay competitive, stay in business," the casino announced. "We are extremely confident that the new platform will be received positively by both loyal and new players of Grand Banks Casino."

With all that has been modified on the site, Grand Banks Casino assures that it won't be letting go of its stand-bys. "Our amazing customer loyalty programs, bonuses, and fast payouts that we have built our reputation on will continue to remain significant advantages of the casino. Our 24-hour M2S2 customer support is also, as always, up and running for those who have questions or comments."

The software isn't the only change for Grand Banks Casino. The company also announced that it has moved homes from Costa Rica to Curacao, Dutch Antilles. While the casino enjoyed its previous base of operations, the infrastructure and friendly government support in Curacao proved to also be a compelling business opportunity.

Grand Banks Casino is an award-winning online gaming site that operates out of Curacao in the Dutch Antilles. Additional information about the site can be found at www.grandbankscasino.com
