VANCOUVER, Aug. 11, 2014 /CNW/ - POYDRAS GAMING FINANCE CORP. (TSX-V: PYD) ("Poydras" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the continued expansion of its business in its core markets of Oklahoma and California.  Poydras added a third California casino to its portfolio with an initial installment of 8 gaming machines.  In Oklahoma, the company launched a new distribution partnership through a six machine order from Ainsworth Game Technology Inc. ("Ainsworth"), an Australian publicly listed company (ASX: AGI).

"With this new deployment in California, we now have a local market presence ranging from the L.A. Basin to the San Francisco Bay Area as the Company continues to successfully implement its rollout strategy," said Peter Macy, CEO of Poydras Gaming Corp, "we are looking forward to using these installations to continue to expand our footprint in the large and lucrative California market, home to over 70,000 slot machines.  The new partnership with Ainsworth enhances the range of gaming machines that we can provide as we help finance the expansion and upgrading of casino floors in our core markets."

Following the successful delivery of the previously announced 28 new machines in June and early July (see News Release dated May 29, 2014), these new deployments in California and Oklahoma will bring the Company's machine count to 326 across seven casinos.  With the addition of Ainsworth products, Poydras' deployed assets will include gaming machines from seven of the top ten North American gaming vendors.

Poydras will also be opening a new San Francisco Bay Area office in September to take advantage of the growing opportunities in California.
