San Miguel for Online Casino Players

Pagcor, one of the Philippines� largest gaming corporations, has teamed up with Spanish beer brand San Miguel to serve free beer at their Internet casino stations (ICS).

The company operates a nationwide chain of Games.com gaming outlets with a minimum of 10 personal computer terminals dedicated solely to playing eCasinoFilipino games accessible 24 hours a day.

The range of eCasinoFilipino games offered inside the ICSs include Baccarat Blackjack which bring in 56.8 percent and 30.5 percent of the total gross bet turnover, respectively, followed by 7 percent for Poker games and 3.3 percent for slot-machine games.

Pagcor started with a humble 11 ICS stations in 2004, and the number more than tripled by year-end of 2005.

A key factor in the boom in the Philippines� online casino industry is the 3 percent increase in the commission rate offered to Pagcor�s the operators from 22 percent to 25 percent of gross winnings in mid 2005, spurring more operators to take on ICS machines.
