AXcess News: Breeders Cup a Sure Bet for Online Advertising Agency

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 18:38:00 EDT

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - October 30, 2009) - For the first time in history, millions of European sports betting enthusiasts will be able to place wagers on next week's 2009 Breeders Cup race in Santa Anita through TVG, a subsidiary of Betfair, which will televise the race. But the big winner may be Play LA, Inc. (OTCBB: PLLAF), which will be Betfair's primary online advertising partner.

Betfair bought the Television Games Network (TVG) for $50 million in cash in January from Macrovision, which acquired TVG's former parent, Gemstar-TV Guide, in 2008. TVG holds the largest market share among national account-wagering companies. Combining that power with Betfair's beefy EU reach as the largest online sports betting operator is estimated to generate millions in wagers off of the 2009 Breeders Cup.
