Is Now the Time to Cash In on Zynga Stock?

After what seems like years of waiting, Zynga (ZNGA) has officially launched real-money games. There's just one hitch: Only U.K. players are eligible.

ZyngaPlusPoker and ZyngaPlusCasino are to be run in tandem with bwin.party digital entertainment (NASDAQOTH: PYGMF), which hosts the popular real-money gaming site PartyPoker. Both games will make their way to Facebook (META 1.54%) and mobile platforms this year, the company said in a blog post.

The net impact of this move on Zynga stock is unknowable at this point, but a change in U.S. law could be a meaningful catalyst for sending the shares higher, says Tim Beyers of Motley Fool Rule Breakers and Motley Fool Supernova.
