However, a recently ruling by the Justice Department which enables states to allow online gambling could present a significant opportunity to Zynga to generate billions of dollars in revenue from casinogames through online gambling.
Speculation has been running high that Zynga would move into online gambling particularly with its Zynga Poker game and its recently announced Casino series of games.
Zynga is also applying for a gaming licence in Nevada, home of Las Vegas, in order to offer players a new suite of casino-style games on which they can bet real money, in conjunction with the online gambling firm Bwin.
