The TVG television network/advance deposit wagering company has expanded into Pennsylvania through a partnership with Harrah’s Chester Casino & Racetrack.

"Expanding into an important jurisdiction like Pennsylvania not only will have a positive impact on our business, but will offer great benefit for our industry partners in the state since a portion of all Pennsylvania wagers made through TVG will be earmarked for distribution to horsemen and racetracks," TVG CEO Stephen Burn said in a statement.

"This alliance will expand our distribution, drive handle and build awareness of our world-class harness racing product. It’s a good thing for our business, and it’s a good thing for our fans." said Barry Brown, director of racing operations at Harrah’s Chester Casino & Racetrack.

Pennsylvania is the 18th state where TVG wagers are accepted.
