Chartwell Technology, the Canadian gambling group, announced recently that it has expanded on an existing license agreement it has with the Nasdaq listed Shuffle Master gaming group.
The amendment of the licensing deal between gaming groups Chartwell and Shuffle Master will allow the Canadian gambling giant to expand to other markets in the world and offer Shuffle Master's proprietary table games.
