    Montreal, CanadaNovember 27, 2012Amaya Gaming Group Inc. (Amaya) (TSXV: AYA)

    announced today that Mohegan Sun has chosen Amayas subsidiary Ongame Network Ltd.(Ongame) to power its online poker offering. Mohegan Sun will enter the online gambling

    market in early 2013 by launching play money poker at www.mohegansun.com for PCs, Macs,

    smart phones and tablets.

    We have been looking for the best possible fit for a poker partner for over 6 months. MoheganSun needs a provider who has outstanding regulatory experience and flexibility to offer intra-

    state play-for-free poker at first, and the technology to enable real money online poker when it is

    legalized. We are proud to announce that this partner is Ongame.

    Mitchell Etess, Chief Executive Officer of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority

    The action by The Mohegan Tribe marks the first move by an East Coast casino operation intothe world of online gaming and poker. This will enable Mohegan Sun to be at the head of the line

    when legalized real money poker is available to American customers.

    It is exciting to be part of the move online for one of the most dynamic and expansive casinooperators in the United States. Mohegan Sun is the second largest casino site in the United States

    and it will be very exciting to be a partner in their online gaming operations as this becomes an

    important part of their future business strategy.
