Zynga exec overseeing key poker game quits

9 October 2012

Reuters reports that former Zynga Inc. Poker General Manager Laurence "Lo" Toney, Zynga Inc's executive overseeing its key poker game, has quit, hitting the gamemaker in a particularly vulnerable spot as it struggles with a steady employee exodus and falling revenue.

According to the Reuters report, the exit comes as the company has been talking up real-money gambling as a growth opportunity worth billions of dollars, at a time when revenue has fallen with the flight of users from casual Facebook games such as FarmVille and CityVille.
