Gambling products and services provider, Scientific Games Corporation (NASDAQ: SGMS), on Monday announced that it has entered into an agreement with video gaming operator, Second State Gaming, LLC, that will see its Bally MultiConnect (BMC) software installed throughout the state of Pennsylvania at 20 truck stop locations.

Statewide gambling expansion:
