Party Poker Going Public?

PartyGaming formerly iGlobalmedia, owner of PartyPoker is considering becoming a publicly traded company after watching shares of Sportingbet do well when they acquired Paradise Poker. The move would likely immediately place PartyGaming in the FTSE 100.

I wouldn't mind owning a piece of Party Poker. It will be interesting to see if this happens, and how well the stock does. If it does well, and I have no reason to think it wouldn't, then it will also be interesting to see if other online poker rooms and casinos started going public. It could be just like the dot com era only with gambling.
