News in brief: PokerStars freezes accounts after bots investigation; CryptoLogic signs Tain deal...

PokerStars has frozen ten player accounts after an internal investigation provided evidence they were being operated by computer programmes or 'bots'. This followed the operator being alerted by a posting on poker forum 2+2 to suspicious activity on some accounts. Poker rankings site PokerTableRatings claimed in an article on its site that the accounts had collectively played at least eight million hands, generating nearly US$187,000 in rake and making US$57,000 in profit.

CryptoLogic has launched and licensed its Instant Click solution to gaming platform provider Tain, allowing the swift roll out of CryptoLogic's games to third party platforms.
