  • Microgaming has developed a new application programming interface (API) which should give network poker rooms a lot more freedom to enhance their own poker software.
  • So long as poker rooms write their software to interface correctly with the API, they can make whatever enhancements they wish to their own bespoke poker clients. Their players will continue to be fed into the same player pool as always.
  • The first operator to launch a client built from scratch which uses the new API, is expected to be announced soon.
