                         ('the Company' or 'the Group')


        Playtech secures first major move into land-based gaming market


 Contract signed with subsidiary, Videobet, and leading Mexican casino operator


Playtech (AIM: PTEC), the AIM listed international designer, developer and
licensor of software for the gaming industry, announces today that its fully
owned land-based subsidiary, Videobet, has entered into a long-term licensing
contract with leading Mexican casino operator, Entretenimiento De Mexico, S.A.
De C.V. ('EMex').


Under the terms of the three-year contract, EMex will add Videobet's
revolutionary server based gaming product to its existing and future gaming
estates. In addition, EMex will be leveraging its land-based presence and the
cross selling opportunities offered through other Playtech group products by
offering online casino and mobile gaming to the entire Latin American market - a
first for a Mexican casino group.


Emex is the single largest video-slot casino operator in the Mexican market with
12 gaming halls, in excess of 4,000 machines and 180,000 registered players.


Videobet successfully launched its product in August 2006. The
comprehensive server-based gaming system features a captivating suite of 45
games, supported by a powerful real-time management back-end with dynamic
content delivery and unparalleled control over the entire operation. It also
provides significant cross-selling opportunities and synergies with Playtech's
online and mobile products.



Avigur Zmora, CEO of Playtech, said:


'This deal is the first significant step for our land-based offering, opening up
a whole new market whilst complimenting and further strengthening our existing
portfolio.  This product provides a great opportunity for land based casino
operators to diversify their offering and increase customer loyalty by cross
selling to online and mobile products. We are delighted to be working with such
a successful and established company in EMex and we believe that it will greatly
benefit their players by offering a superior gaming experience coupled with
unparalleled management control.


Arturo Rojas, CEO of Entretenimiento De Mexico, S.A. De C.V. said:


We are confident that our players are going to be delighted by the choice of
being able to play their favourite game in either one of our land-based
facilities, or on their home computer or other consumer electronic devices. With
the addition of mobile gaming, Emex will possess a full-suite of gaming
opportunities for our players; land-based, computer based, and mobile phone.


Our ongoing focus groups show that our players will enjoy the ability to utilize
gaming entertainment from more places than just a casino floor. They will be
able to enjoy from the comfort of their own home or while they wait to catch a
flight at the airport. EMex has one of the largest bases of gaming clubs in the
Republic of Mexico, possessing a registered player list of over 180,000 members,
and we are excited about being able to expand into the online world in such a
dramatic and complete way by using Playtech's technologies.
