Playtech (AIM: PTEC), the international designer, developer and licensor of
software for the online and land-based gaming industry, announces today its

    76% on the $13.8 million in Q2 2006:

   - Casino revenues totalled $17.4 million, an increase of 15% from

     Q2 2006;

   -  Poker revenues totalled $6.3 million, an increase of 50% from
      $4.2 million in Q1 2007 and an increase of 288% from $1.6 million in 
      Q2 2006.

  • Total revenues for H1 2007 were $44.0 million representing an increase

  • Total revenues in Q2 2007 decreased by 5% from the $25.4 million in Q2
    2006 (including contribution from the US):

   -  Casino revenues decreased by 21% from $22.2 million in Q2 2006;

   -   Poker revenues increased by 132% from $2.7 million in Q2 2006.




Licensees

In the first six months of 2007, Playtech has gained a total of 12 new
licensees, eight of which are Tribeca migrated licensees now successfully
operating on Playtech's poker network, and which have contributed fully to the
Q2 revenues. In addition, Playtech entered into four additional licence
agreements, one for the casino product, one for the poker product, one taking
all current products available and the other catering to the Chinese market by
offering Playtech's p2p tournament product.

Bingo and Casino Products

Playtech's Bulgarian subsidiary continues to develop the bingo product. In May
2007, Playtech launched a new version of bingo which significantly improved the
player experience whilst upgrading the bingo engine and the back office tools.
In July 2007, Playtech introduced a flash version of bingo, which was launched
with three of its licensees. It is intended that this product will be fully
deployed with all bingo licensees in Q4 2007.

Playtech continues to increase the range of games it offers to licensees, both
through internal development and by licensing content from third party IP rights
holders.

Geographical Analysis

The Tribeca migrated licensees are focused on the European market, which has
resulted in strong European revenue growth in the second quarter. The Asian
market has been stable during the second quarter. The restructuring of one of
the Company's Asian licensees, as previously stated in the Q1 KPI announcement,
is now mostly completed.

Current Trading

Playtech concluded a very positive first half of 2007. The Group's leading
position in both the casino and poker software industry continues to attract new
licensees and this trend is expected to continue in the second half of the year.
In addition, the Company's existing licensees are experiencing continued growth,
which is being bolstered by the cross selling benefits available via Playtech's
platform.

Since the beginning of Q3, the Group is experiencing growth across all business
areas and this trend is expected to continue, despite such quarter traditionally
being a slow period for the online gaming industry. The Group also aims to
further diversify its revenue stream through the introduction of its new
products by the end of the year.

Mor Weizer, Chief Executive Officer, commenting on the results, said today:

'The first six months has been an outstanding period for the Group, with the
addition of 12 new licensees and growth experienced across all business areas.
During the first half of 2007, Playtech gained a leading position with its poker
offering and is now the world's largest independent poker network. Such a
position, alongside the Company's market leading casino offering will continue
to attract new licensees in the second half of 2007. The Group continues to
invest in its new product pipeline in order to gain additional revenue streams
and to maximise cross selling opportunities to its existing and future
licensees.'
