Sky has launched a second gaming channel under the Sky Vegas brand.
The channel - available on EPG 846 - follows a similar format to the existing Sky Vegas station with a lineup of casino and betting-themed programming.
The plans to expand Sky Vegas were first announced by chief exec James Murdoch last year as part of a strategy to increase gaming revenues.
The existing Sky Vegas channel has been rebranded 'Sky Vegas 845' to accompany the changes.
