Online casinos are fun and entertaining, however, it’s always good to remember to play safe, be it with regards to responsible gaming, playing on licensed sites or choosing secure payment methods.

During these emergency measures, the safety and well-being of our players is our top priority, which is why we’re reminding you of our safer gambling tools.

Gamble Responsibly

We want you to have fun but be responsible every time you play with us. LiveRoulette encourages its players to gamble responsibly, and to use your funds wisely. Borrowing money to play, spending more than you can afford or using money which has been saved for other reasons is not the right way to go, as it can cause problems for yourself and the people around you.

LiveRoulette has several responsible gaming tools in place to help you play in the right way. You can set up your own gaming limits, budgets and boundaries. We work together with the Global Gaming Guidance Group (G4) to provide players with the tools to prevent unhealthy gaming behaviour. Here’s a recap of our top tools:

Set Deposit Limits

If you’re spending more time at home or you’re spending more time online, you can control your funds with a daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit. You can set up these limits through My Account and accessing the Responsible Gaming page. You’ll also be prompted to set a limit when you first open an account.

Use Reality Checks

These days, most online casinos offer cool-off options, from 24-hour time outs to more permanent solutions. Need a reality check on your gaming? No problem. With LiveRoulette you can be notified through a Reality Check which helps you keep track of how long you’ve been playing. You can be informed every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, one or two hours, depending on the frequency you choose.

The Reality Check feature will automatically stop the game you’re currently playing until you either decide to continue with the game or you choose to exit. This feature gives you a detailed breakdown of your online casino activity, such as information about your current gaming session with regards to time spent and information regarding any wins and losses.

Take Time Out

Think you might be playing too much? Give yourself time to cool off by temporarily suspending your account.

For players who may wish to self-exclude on a more permanent basis, LiveRoulette and a number of online casinos allow you to register with GamStop. GamStop is a handy and free service which allows players to self-exclude from all online gambling companies which are licensed in Great Britain. To find out more information and to sign up for this service simply visit www.gamstop.co.uk.

Take A Self-Assessment Test

If you’re concerned about the possibility of developing a gambling problem you can try our online Self-Assessment test (if you’re a registered player), and see what the results show. If your test result has reason to concern you, consider activating a timeout on your account or contact customer support to receive further advice.

Protect Your Kids

It’s illegal for anyone under 18 to open a casino account in the UK, and we take all the necessary precautions to ensure we do not attract or target minors. All accounts are fully age-verified before anyone can play, and if an account cannot be verified for any reason it is suspended, and no play can go ahead.

Whilst you and your children might be spending more time at home, there are measures you can take to ensure that your children aren’t exposing to gambling sites:

• Do not play in front of your children or minors.
• Log out as soon as you’ve finished playing.
• Keep any card details secure and out of reach.
• Do not use auto-fill for email addresses, passwords and other account details such as usernames.
• If you share your computer with people who are not yet of age, you can install software such as NetNanny to monitor, limit and protect your family from harmful content.

A Final Word Of Advice

Do not gamble if you feel anxious, tired or frustrated, and do not let your gambling get in the way of your daily activities. Gambling is not a solution to financial problems and should be done with your entertainment budget, not with your phone bill or rent money.

Decide how much you can afford to lose before you start playing, and remember once it’s gone, it’s gone. Apart from setting monetary limits, set yourself a time limit or a particular time window for play.

From rags to running backs, who is the boujiest of them all? Football has the reputation of being a good ole’ American sport. With humble traditions like tailgates in parking lots and hot dogs from under a warming rack, it’d be a logical next step to think of NFL games as no-fuss, no-frills. While that may be true for some, some stadiums say, “Go big or go home.” 

The proletarians of the “pigskin” sport exist in every NFL fan base, but some stadiums are better when it comes to providing luxury. Whether it’s caviar-level concessions or immaculate urinals (oxymoronic, perhaps?), we ranked all 30 NFL stadiums against factors like bathrooms, premium parking, and luxury suite availability to determine the boujiness score for each. So, which stadiums boast opulence, and which ones fumble? 

Key Findings:

• SoFi Stadium ranks #1 boujiest stadium, thanks to advanced tech
• Chicago Bears’ Soldier Field ranked the lowest out of all 30 stadiums
• Best bathrooms go to The Minnesota Vikings’ U.S. Bank Stadium

The boujiest NFL stadiums of all time

Roll out the red carpet because not one but two special teams are in town! The boujiest NFL arena goes to…SoFi Stadium! Home to the LA Chargers and LA Rams, these teams can rightfully flaunt their Hollywood roots. Scoring a 100/100 on the boujee scale, SoFi swiftly takes first place. It shouldn’t come as any surprise, as this stadium also coughed up the largest chunk of cash to build. With a dizzying investment of $5.5 billion, the SoFi Stadium builders knew they were aiming for gold. With so many decimal points behind that number, it seems well-deserved!

Money alone doesn’t earn SoFi the reigning first place. Putting fame to their Silicon Valley name, this arena had the vision of being tech-forward. Having some of the most state-of-the-art technology in the league, like its wrap-around mega screen and digital twinning technology, easily earns it the title of The NFL’s Boujiest Stadium. 

Can I get a yeehaw? The second boujiest NFL arena goes to the AT&T Stadium, home to the Dallas Cowboys! Besides having a rowdy good time, these ranchers are clicking their heels and clinking their champagne glasses with a boujee score of 99/100. Coming in first place also for having the highest capacity (although MetLife wins with the highest seated capacity), AT&T Stadium has an obligation to make over 80,000 fans happy. With such a large number, you can expect some fancy finds. A fabulous feature of the stadium is its display screens. It’s the world’s largest, and very first center-hung HDTV video board, measuring 160 feet by 72 feet at a cost of $40 million. A pretty penny, but absolutely worth the investment as the Cowboy’s home ranks #2 most boujee stadium.  

Third on the list of lavishness is the Empower Field at Mile High, the Denver Broncos turf. Empower Field ranks #3 with a boujee score of 81/100. Having recently undergone a renovation this year and an initial investment of $400 million, it makes sense that the stadium ranks high. With 144 luxury suites and 116 concession stands, fans have so much more than the game to enjoy. Better yet, their concession stands have $5 menu items for those with a champagne taste on a beer budget. 

Honorable and elegant mentions go to the runner-ups: Gillette Stadium in fourth place, U.S. Bank Stadium in fifth place, Hard Rock Stadium in sixth, and Allegiant Stadium- you’re all fancy front-runners too!

NFL stadiums with the lowest boujee rankings

We can’t all be bad and boujee- and that’s okay too. While some stadiums flaunt flashiness others keep it a bit more simple. Fewer bathrooms, very luxury suites, and sub-par parking options contributed to B-grade boujiness. 

The, err, humblest of all stadiums goes to Soldier Field, home of the Chicago Bears. Despite its prime location, the stadium itself offers far fewer amenities than the competition. Soldier Field hasn’t received any major renovation since 2003, making it a mark behind the other high-tech arenas. Fans aren’t protected from the harsh conditions during the winter on-season as it doesn’t have any dome fixtures, unlike other Northern arenas. Soldier Field also ranks as the smallest stadium in the NFL meaning less food offerings, box seats, and other luxury items. On the plus side, the Bears have 8 NFL championships and 1 Super Bowl ring to brag about. Let’s celebrate that!

New York is home to some of the best…and worst stadiums. With MetLife ranking #9 of the NFL’s boujiest stadiums, it might come as a shock that just a couple of hours away is the second least boujee stadium: Highmark Stadium. The Buffalo Bills might have one of the lowest build costs at $145 million (chump change, really) meaning a much smaller amount of luxury boxes and high-tech offerings. 

The third-least boujee stadium goes to Paycor Stadium, home to the Cincinnati Bengals. Paycor Stadium also ranks as a small stadium at a 65,515 seated capacity. On the plus side, their bathroom score was a 70/100 with 114 restrooms available throughout the stadium. When we look at the number of bathrooms per attendee, we get 575 people per bathroom, at full attendance. Yikes!

A royal flush: fanciest bathrooms in the league

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the best bathroom of them all? You might be thinking, is a toilet really considered fancy? Scott Jenkins, the general manager of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium says it best, “It seems unremarkable to most people, but, trust me, you invite 70,000 people to your house and you get the bathrooms wrong — you’ve got a huge problem.” If you do the math, he’s got a point. A $6,000 ticket with a 30-minute bathroom wait is essentially almost a grand just to pee!

The best in the bathroom league goes to…The Minnesota Vikings’ U.S. Bank Stadium. Offering an exorbitant amount of lavish loos, the U.S. Bank Stadium scored an incredulous 100/100. It’s worth noting that Allegiant Stadium came in a close second with its 297 restrooms. With 1,430 toilets you can get back to the game quickly and lap in the life of luxury. SoFi Stadium came in third place with its toilet technology securing them the bronze bathroom medal.

Cushy concessions: fanciest food stands in the NFL stadiums round-up

Step aside, hot dogs. Surf and turf is here! Well, there might not be any NFL stadiums serving actual steak, but there still are some lavish lunch options to go with the game! Get ready to munch down on some Lobster Rolls because the New England Patriots Gillette Stadium comes in first place for boujiest concessions. Offering some of the most iconic Boston classics as well as simply having a large quantity of food stands, this stadium takes the cake (or corn dog). 

The second-place winner for boujiest concessions goes to Empower Field at Mile High. In 2019, the Bronco home changed catering to Aramark which then sought to offer more local partnerships and multicultural cuisine. The result? Luxurious fare that earned them a concession boujee score of 81/100. Chefs kiss, Broncos!

It shouldn’t be any surprise that the third boujiest concession stand winner comes from a stadium named after a restaurant franchise. Hard Rock Stadium ranks #3 boujiest concessions at a score of 67/100. With almost 100 concession stands in the arena, fans have plenty of opulent options to choose from.

A boujee brief 

We’re hut, hut, hiking into VIP with these top boujee NFL stadiums as the season carries on. Whether it’s the first-in-class bites or toilets fit for royalty, there are clear winners on the list and with billions of dollars in combined investment, it’s no surprise! So get bad, get boujee, and go buy your box tickets to the boujiest stadiums across the NFL.

Methodology

Using quantitative observation, web scraping, and secondary data we were able to collect the different metrics from all 30 NFL stadiums, where we then weighted each factor according to importance and relevance. We then combined these numbers to create a score and rank regarding the “boujeeness” of each stadium.

Introducing the world’s first AI-powered roulette game that will have you spinning to win.

The game is easy to play. Simply enter your name, your bet amount and select the number on which you want to bet. Then hit ‘spin’ and wait for the ball to land on your number! If it lands on yours, congratulations! You just won!

The game of Roulette has been around since the 18th century. Despite this, it is still very popular among gamblers. The game is played with a wheel and a ball on the inside. There are numbers on the outside of the wheel which correspond to numbers which are on the inside of the wheel. Players place their bets on any number they choose, and if it lands on that number, they win their bet amount.

The game of Roulette has some similarities to other games like Baccarat and Poker because you can make educated guesses about what will happen in a round of play without knowing all the facts about what has happened in previous rounds.

Même pour un joueur qui connaît déjà parfaitement les règles du poker, le concept des nuts au poker pourrait être surprenant et encore plus la façon de les utiliser de manière stratégique au cours d’une partie. Avoir les nuts veut dire avoir la main la plus haute possible autour de la table à un moment donné du jeu, rendant ainsi ses chances de gagner très élevées. Ceci ne veut toutefois pas dire qu’une telle partie de poker ne pourrait pas être le témoin d’un retournement de situation inattendu offrant un final dramatique et contre tous les pronostics, mais une telle volteface ne serait due qu’à la chance pure et non au talent de l’adversaire.

Le terme de nuts a une étrange origine qui remonte à plusieurs siècles auparavant, quand les cowboys américains sillonnaient le Vieil Ouest. Déjà au cours du XIX^ème siècle et au début du XX^ème siècle, on jouait au poker aux frontières des États-Unis. Il n’y avait rien de surprenant à y trouver de petits tournois entre amis dans les auberges des villages, et des parties de cartes étaient souvent à l’ordre du jour autour des tables des saloons. Jouer au poker était une manière de passer le temps, mais aussi un moyen d’effacer ses dettes.

Ainsi, les mises des cowboys ne se faisaient pas qu’à l’aide de pièces sonnantes et trébuchantes mais aussi avec des objets qui leur permettaient de prolonger leur présence autour de la table. Ce qui était le plus cher aux yeux des cowboys était l’élément basique de tout gardien de vaches, à savoir leur charrette. Les charrettes étaient hautement considérées à cette époque, et elles avaient pour habitude de disposer d’un écrou dans leurs roues que l’on appelait le « nut ». Sans ceux-ci, un chariot ne pouvait tout simplement pas avancer. Et c’est pour cela que les cowboys les utilisaient comme garantie autour de la table, la garantie que personne n’aurait le moyen de fuir si le jeu tournait en sa défaveur.

Et c’est aussi pour cela que, si un joueur déposait ses nuts sur la table, ses opposants pouvaient être certains que celui-ci disposait de la meilleure main imaginable. Ils se montraient immédiatement méfiants, bien qu’il pouvait toujours s’agir d’un énorme coup de bluff. Tout dépendait de la « poker face » du joueur misant ses nuts. Cette histoire de nuts a ensuite traversé les époques pour devenir un terme récurrent du poker actuel. Un concept aussi bien important dans le poker en live que dans les tournois de poker en ligne et qui, comme toujours, dispose d’une stratégie propre.

La stratégie des nuts

La première chose à avoir en tête est que jouer les nuts est a priori très simple, du moins en théorie. Si un joueur a la meilleure main possible, ses possibilités de victoire sont énormes et donc son objectif sera de faire en sorte que ses adversaires paient. Pour cela, il faudra savoir garder son calme et attendre le bon moment pour dévoiler ses intentions, sinon tous les autres joueurs vont se rendre compte du pot-au-rose et se coucher immédiatement. Et tout ceci dépendra toujours du type de joueurs se trouvant autour de la table, sachant qu’il y en aura souvent un qui pensera aussi avoir les nuts. Contre lui, vous pourrez vous montrer offensif dès le début et sans la moindre réserve, car il paiera.

La théorie la plus simple nous dit qu’il faut réaliser un mouvement de diversion lors du pré-flop ou du flop, de faire une petite mise lors de la turn et d’y aller à fond à la river. Avec des nuts en main, la logique veut que le tour se termine par un all-in. Bien que pour ceci, il faut encore faire une distinction entre les nuts. D’un côté, il y a la nut actuelle, qui est la meilleure main possible à un moment précis de la partie, mais qui n’enlève pas la possibilité qu’elle puisse être battue par surprise par une autre main grâce à une river imprévue par exemple. Et d’un autre côté nous avons la nut absolue, qui est la meilleure main de tout le poker, est qui est la quinte flush royale et non pas le carré d’As. Pour tout cela, savoir classer les mains de poker sera primordial.

Là où les nuts seront clairement incertaines sont les mains où les cartes communes à tous les joueurs semblent offrir de nombreuses possibilités de couleur ou de full house. Dans ces cas-là, il sera fondamental de bien analyser la situation pour déterminer si, oui ou non, nous disposons des nuts en main ou si au contraire cette très bonne main a au final de grandes chances d’être battue. Et savoir reconnaître les nuts dans les mains d’un autre joueur sera aussi essentiel. D’ailleurs, il existe quelques joueurs qui aiment à fanfaronner en clamant qu’ils ont les nuts. De deviner s’ils disent la vérité ou non sera votre unique objectif.

Et, le plus important, ce qu’il ne faut surtout pas faire est de continuellement penser que notre adversaire dispose des nuts et qu’il est impossible de gagner contre lui. Psychologiquement, un tel raisonnement ne pourrait que nous démoraliser. Et il faudra savoir aussi analyser différemment la situation en fonction du type de nos rivaux, entre ceux qui jouent beaucoup de mains et ceux qui suivent les standards du jeu soft.

Protect from Light: UV rays from direct sunlight can degrade the cannabinoids in the blunt. Store them in opaque containers or wrap them in aluminum foil to shield them from light exposure. Alternatively, choose containers specifically designed to block UV rays.

Maintain Low Humidity: High humidity can introduce moisture to the blunt, potentially compromising its quality. Aim for a humidity level of around 55-62% for optimal storage. You can use humidity packs or small moisture-absorbing packets to help regulate humidity within the storage container.

Consider Temperature Control: Extreme temperatures can negatively impact the blunt. Ensure that THCA blunts are not subjected to extreme temperatures, whether excessively hot or cold, as it can dry them out or cause them to become brittle. Room temperature, around 60-70°F (15-21°C), is generally suitable for storage.

Separate Flavors and Strains: If you have multiple flavors or strains of THCA blunt, consider storing them separately to prevent cross-contamination and preserve their distinct characteristics. This way, each blunt maintains its unique flavor profile.

Handle with Care: Avoid crushing or damaging the blunt during handling. Gentle handling ensures that the delicate trichomes and structure of the flower remain intact, preserving the overall quality.

Label and Date: Consider labeling and dating the containers to keep track of freshness and strain information. This way, you can quickly identify and pick the blunt you desire without the risk of confusion.

“There are 3 ways to play Pocket Jacks, and they’re all wrong.”

You may have heard this famous poker saying before. Hopefully you didn’t pay it much attention because it’s pretty much nonsense.

Pocket Jacks is one of the strongest hands preflop and should be a welcome sight when the dealer tosses it your way.

But despite its strength, many people misplay Jacks by playing them far too passively or far too aggressively.

That’s why in this article I will share with you:

• 3 Tips for Playing Jacks After 3-Betting
  
• 3 Tips for Playing Jacks After Calling a 3-Bet

How to Play Pocket Jacks in Common Preflop Situations

This section will go over the optimal way to play Pocket Jacks in every common preflop scenario. Note that this advice assumes you’re playing a cash game with 100 big blind stacks (no ante).

Here are the positions that will be referenced in this section:

Unopened Pots

Pocket Jacks rank among the top 2-3% of hands preflop. You should raise every single time from every position when the action folds to you.

You should never limp this hand, or any hand for that matter.

Against a Raise

When you’re facing a preflop raise and you have Pocket Jacks, you should always 3-bet.

It is simply too strong of a hand to consider just calling. 3-betting has the following advantages:

• You have loads of equity when called
• The 3-bet generates fold equity
• Your hand is strong enough to call (or shove) against a 4-bet

There are some situations in tournaments where just calling a raise with Pocket Jacks is best. But in cash games, put in that 3-bet.

Against a 3-Bet

When faced with a 3-bet by a good and aggressive player, you should usually 4-bet with Pocket Jacks. It might seem scary to 4-bet, but there are only 3 hands that have you beat: Pocket Aces, Pocket Kings, and Pocket Queens.

You can’t really approach poker strategy by constantly being afraid of monsters.

Of course, if you know your opponent is a very tight player who only 3-bets with QQ+ and Ace-King, you can consider just calling or even folding. But that will not be true for the vast majority of your opponents. Make sure you have an iron-clad read before making such a tight move.

Against a 4-Bet

In theory, when facing a 4-bet, you should never fold a hand as strong as Jacks.

That being said, if you are playing in live games, there is a much higher chance that you are going to encounter players who only 4-bet with Ace-King, Pocket Queens, Pocket Kings, and Pocket Aces. Against those players, you SHOULD fold. Again, just make sure you have a good read before doing so.

Against the more balanced and aggressive players, however, you should 5-bet shove in the later positions (Big Blind, Small Blind, and Button) and call the 4-bet from the other positions.

3 Tips for Playing Pocket Jacks as the Preflop 3-Bettor

Suppose a player raises, you 3-bet with Pocket Jacks, and your opponent calls. This section contains 3 tips for this common and potentially tricky scenario.

Tip #1: If you 3-bet from the Small Blind and the flop has one overcard, fire a bet

You’ve probably always hated 3-betting with Jacks only to have the flop come something like or .

The good news is that, if you’ve 3-bet from the Small Blind, then your overall range of hands will be quite strong on these boards. So, you can fire a small c-bet with your entire range — a game theory approved strategy.

Pocket Jacks serves as a thin value bet on all of these flops, and it also benefits from protection.

For example, on that example flop, your bet will get called by some worse hands (such as ) while also forcing hands with equity (like ) to fold.

Tip #2: If you’re in position on an Ace-high flop, go for pot control with a check

Suppose the Cutoff raises and you 3-bet from the Button. If your opponent calls and the flop is something like , you should check back with your Jacks.

You have a hand with good but not great equity and there are only a couple of bad turn cards ( or ) for you, so you can afford to check and take a free card.

In general, medium strength hands that don’t fear too many turns tend to make good check backs. Pocket Jacks on these Ace-high flops is a perfect example.

Tip #3: If you are in position and your Jacks are an overpair, always bet

You need to start betting whenever the flop is something like or .

On these lower flops, Jacks are a strong overpair with which you should try to extract value right away. 

Failing to do so allows your opponent to realize equity with overcards for free against you — imagine how disastrous it would be to check and let your opponent catch a higher pair for free.

Don’t miss these opportunities for value. The difference in expected value (EV) between betting and checking in these scenarios is large.

3 Tips for Playing Pocket Jacks After Calling a 3-Bet

Now, let’s turn the tables and discuss playing Jacks after calling someone else’s 3-bet.

Tip #1: If the flop comes Ace-high and you’re out of position, check and fold versus a bet

Example: You raise from UTG, the player in the Cutoff 3-bets, and you call with . The flop comes . You check and your opponent bets.

Ace-high flops are the worst case scenario for Pocket Jacks after you’ve called a 3-bet.

It’s horrible because your opponent’s range is so strong that you can’t really make a profitable call against a c-bet. Even though you might have the best hand now, your opponent can put pressure on you for 3 streets. This hand cannot withstand that amount of frequent pressure.

You just need to accept this fact and move on to the next hand!

Tip #2: In position with a middling pair, you should always check back

Example: You raise from UTG, the player in the Small Blind 3-bets, and you call with . The flop comes and your opponent checks.

If you remember from tip #2 of the previous section, this hand has the best properties for a pot controlling hand:

1. Good but not great equity
2. Is not very vulnerable
3. You have the opportunity to see the turn for free

When these 3 attributes come together, you should check-back.

Tip #3: In position, you should always bet when the board is low 

Example: You raise from UTG, the player in the Small Blind 3-bets, and you call with . The flop comes and your opponent checks.

Sometimes you get a good board for your range. These low boards (8-high and lower) don’t mingle well with the out-of-position 3-bettor’s range.

The majority of the hands they 3-bet miss these flops, which forces them to check with a good chunk of their range. That checking range, no matter how well-built it is, is vulnerable to small stabs. 

By betting small on the flop with Jacks, you get to extract some value and deny a bit of equity. When only getting a call from your opponent, you should continue value betting on the vast majority of turns. Except, of course, when the turn card is the dreaded Ace.

3 Bonus Tips to Avoid Spewing With Jacks

Final Thoughts

It’s not that hard to play Pocket Jacks well, at least on the first two streets. Doing so sets the rest of the hand up for easier turn and river decisions. So try and always make the correct plays preflop and on the flop so that more big blinds will start getting pushed towards you (in the long run of course!)

That’s all for this article! I hope you enjoyed it and that you learned something new from it! If you have any questions or feedback please let me know in the comment section down below and I’ll do my best to reply!

2023 NFL Offensive Player Of The Year Odds

When healthy, there is no more dynamic player in the NFL than Christian McCaffrey. The 49ers running back is a multi-purpose weapon who can rack up yards and touchdowns in every facet of the game. But, he’s somehow only finished top-five in OPoY voting once in his career.

With a hot start to his 2023 season, it looks like this could finally be the year McCaffrey gets it done. So far, CMC has managed to slide by without any significant injuries this season and if he can stay healthy for all 17 San Francisco contests, this is his award to win. That’s a big if, though.

Best Bet: CMC (+115)

Last 10 Offensive Player of the Year Winners 

These players are prime examples of what makes an OPOY candidate—elite playmakers at their individual positions who almost single-handedly created a chance for their team to win week in and week out.

Before Michael Thomas, the last wide receiver to earn OPOY was Jerry Rice, who won the honor 26 years ago in 1993. As if making up for lost time, we then saw two more WRs take home the award in the past three years. There’s a trend here that might indicate the league is warming to the concept of stellar receivers earning their dues.

Players that have won multiple Offensive Player of the Year awards

*Franchises that have since relocated

Esteemed company, to say the least, these players are the only OPOYs to have been awarded twice or more. Faulk and Davis are the only members of this list who helped their team bring home a Super Bowl in the same year as their award, 2000 and 1998, respectively.

NFL Franchises with the Most Offensive Player of the Year awards

Nine NFL teams have never had an OPOY award winner – the Arizona Cardinals, Cleveland Browns, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Giants, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Schools that produced the most Offensive Player of the Year Winners

Every college football program has its own strengths; these schools have proven their ability to create a strong foundation for their offensive weapons, with multiple players going on to win NFL OPOY.

No surprise to see the historical dominance of the SEC here, followed by three from the Big 12. These conferences have proven to be a breeding ground for NFL superstars for generations.

Notably, Marshall Faulk and Earl Campbell do a decent bit of heavy lifting for San Diego St. and Texas, respectively, both contributing three titles each.

Offensive Player of the Year Betting Trends and Notes

If there’s just one trend to be noted for the Offensive Player of the Year award, it’s that the time for wide receivers is now. There’s been a tremendous jump in expectations of a WR winning the award, and judging by the 2023 odds, that trend will only continue.

Of course, there are other similarities between the best players in the league from year to year. Whether it be a league-leading stat in a given category or the quality of team they belong to, here are a few important snippets that will factor into the OPOY winner.

Roulette is a game of chance.

The player bets on a number, color, or the “outside” ( odd or even ) to be revealed when the ball drops into one of the numbered pockets on the wheel.

The odds against each bet are established by roulette’s design with the intention that there should be no way for any player to know which pocket will receive the ball.

Cryptocurrencies and the gambling market have found many ways to intersect. This has led to innovation and it improved the user experience for online players. Chances are that this fruitful cooperation will continue in the years to come, as both BTC and online are rising in popularity.

In this article, we’ll discuss the growing trends in the world of online casinos and how they’ll shape the market in 2024. Some of these are long-time coming, while others are recent and driven by the latest innovation.

Increased Adoption 

Many online casinos have already adopted cryptocurrencies as a payment method. Many also base their gameplay mechanism on blockchain technology. These technologies are now widespread and known to be safe and easy to use. The use of cryptocurrencies is also more regulated than before.

We’re likely to see an increased adoption in the years to come. Casinos will allow the use of many different cryptocurrencies, they’ll provide bonuses for those using them, and transactions will get lower. This also means that there will be a wider pool of potential players.

Provably Fair Odds

Using cryptocurrencies allows players to have provably fair odds for their games. When playing Bitcoin roulette online, as well as other games of luck, players need to know what are the exact odds of winning a spin. Open-source codes allow roulette players to make their bets based on a clear understanding of their chances.

This will become the norm, as players focus more on roulette games of luck and players are looking for ways to make informed decisions. BTC casinos will be expected to provide information about odds, volatility, and return to player rate, as the most important data a player needs to bet

Integration of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) in Gambling

Decentralized finance has already found its way to the gambling industry and its uses will expand in the years to come.

DeFi liquidity pools can be used to facilitate betting. Users can deposit Bitcoin into a pool. The odds of various outcomes are determined by the pool’s composition. After the event’s outcome is decided, the winnings are distributed based on the initial deposit ratio. This ensures that the odds are determined by the users, not a centralized entity.

Decentralized finance will also be used to predict the outcome of events. When the event occurs, the shares’ value changes, and users can cash out based on their holdings.

The Rise of Sports Betting

The following year will be a year of sports betting. The rise of bookmakers alongside traditional casino games has a complex and long history. Young players are more interested in sports betting than before and eSports are now widely accepted as events to bet on.

The use of blockchain technology has made the odds much clearer and allowed the odds to change in real-time as the games progress. In the end, the use of AI has made sports betting a science. The players have at their disposal countless statistics and projections made based on those statistics to allow them to make informed bets.

Introduction of In-Game Rewards

Gamification of online casino gameplay will be a huge trend in 2024. This includes side-quests, mini-games, and various in-game rewards. The introduction of these features is especially welcomed by young players who are used to computer games and find traditional casino games to be somewhat monotonous.

This will make the gameplay experience more enjoyable and suitable for playing on mobile devices. It will also drive player loyalty and help bring in new players. The odds of winning these mini-games are also transparent and fair due to the use of blockchain technology.

Enhanced User Experience

Online betting is already made to mimic the look and feel of visiting an on-the-ground establishment. This is accomplished through live betting and the flashy aesthetic players have come to expect when gambling.

In the years to come, the use of augmented and virtual reality will only further improve this trend. These technologies are already available but not widely used. Soon, VR and AR devices will become household items and the Bitcoin gambling industry will be the first to cash in on that.

Social Betting

Tournaments and social betting will be a big deal in 2024. One of the biggest downsides of using online Bitcoin casinos is the alienating nature of the experience. Online casinos are finding ways to remedy this by focusing on tournaments and social aspects of betting.

Live events can be streamed from an actual on-the-ground casino. The players make bets in real time and they can interact with each other as the game takes place. Chats, video calls, as well as augmented reality meetings all can be used to enhance this experience.

Tools For Responsible Gambling

Online casinos are going to start paying more attention to responsible gambling. They will dedicate resources and tools to prevent betting too much, chasing losses, and increasing the size of the bankroll. These practices foster trust and loyalty from players and regulatory institutions alike.

These tools include betting caps, automated betting strategies, and automated stop losses. Players will have control over the settings of these tools, but once they are set, players won’t be able to override them. This means a player may get signed out of their account once they lose the amount they set as a limit.

Stricter Regulatory Measures 

Bitcoin online casinos are already subject to regulations and rules set by government agencies. The process for getting a gambling license is going to get stricter and more complicated. This is partly because of the increased use of cryptocurrencies and partly because there are more players and casinos in general.

The security measures will be held under a higher scrutiny and there’s a chance online casinos will have to renew their license more often. Special attention will be paid to games that rely on blockchain code to guarantee the terms of a bet. These need to be transparent for both the players and regulatory institutions.

Cross-Chain Gambling

Cross-chain gambling refers to gambling that allows players to bet on crypto roulette (for example) using more than one cryptocurrency and more than one crypto platform. The players can seamlessly move their BTC assets from one blockchain platform to another and convert one cryptocurrency to another.

This approach to gambling is already available in some gambling establishments and it will become a norm in the years to come. That will allow the casinos to attract players regardless of which cryptocurrency they are using. Small and niche BTC platforms have their use and following and casinos will be able to tap into it.

Conclusion

The gambling industry needs to be innovative and change with the times so that it can stay relevant. BTC have already changed the industry and provided features useful to both players and gambling establishments. As more players adopt crypto casinos the industry will evolve further.

Online gambling establishments will get more heavily regulated, they will adopt new AR and VR technology, and they’ll allow players to use more cryptocurrencies. The games will be fairer and more transparent with their odds and sports betting will become more popular than before. Both players and BTC casinos will have to quickly adapt to new trends changing the betting industry.

With this release, players can pack their bags and head to North America, as they search for a herd of wild buffalo. A selection of other animals can be seen on the reels of the Buffalo Blitz Megaways slot, while the background consists of a picturesque mountain range. This title comes with a range of features, including the popular Megaways mechanic. Should a matching combination form, the symbols will be removed from the board before new icons drop in from above to fill the space. This process can continue until no more combinations appear, with the number of active paylines also varying with each spin.

Buffalo Blitz Megaways was created by Playtech, a company that has over 20 years of experience in the casino slots space. They have an impressive portfolio to their name, including titles such as Flaming Bars, Full Moon Wild Track, and Sahara Riches: Cash Collect. Playtech has also released a variety of games in the ‘Blitz’ series, with titles such as ‘Rhino Blitz‘ and ‘Shark Blitz’ sharing four progressive jackpots. 

Featured Symbols

The standard symbols in Buffalo Blitz Megaways consist of the 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A symbols that are commonly found in slots online. Premium symbols are shown as a moose, a bear, a racoon, a puma, and a buffalo. Forming a matching combination of six with these symbols can award 4x, 4x, 5x, 5x, or 6x the stake size, in that order. When it comes to premium icons, only two are needed in order to form a combination, with standard symbols requiring a minimum of three. 

Now, this slot also features two different special icons, the first of which is a wild, shown as a diamond. Wilds can replace any standard or premium icon along a payline. The other special symbol is a scatter, displayed simply as the words ‘Free Games’ or ‘More Free Games’. As the writing on these icons suggests, scatter symbols can trigger the main bonus mode.

Bonuses and Jackpots

The first bonus mode in Buffalo Blitz can be triggered when four or more scatter icons appear simultaneously. Interestingly, players will then get to pick a bonus mode from a list of four, all of which offer their own number of spins and wild multiplier values. The first mode is known as ‘Blitz Free Games’, awarding players with 10, 15, or 20 free spins, depending on how many scatter icons triggered the selection, alongside wild multipliers of 2x, 3x, or 5x. Next up is ‘Thunder Free Games’, offering 8, 12, or 16 free spins with a 3x, 4x, or 6x wild multiplier. 

Buffalo Free Games is the name of the third mode, with this bonus awarding 6, 9, or 12 free spins with wild multipliers of 4x, 5x, or 10x. Last but not least is the ‘Mystery Free Games’, which can offer anywhere from 6 to 20 free spins and wild multipliers of 2x to 10x. It’s worth mentioning that the multiplier is only applied to potential winnings when a wild symbol is part of the combination. Should multiple wilds be included, their values will be added together before being applied.  

Each bonus mode can also be retriggered by landing three or more scatter icons. However, the number of spins will depend on the variation selected. In all cases, the maximum number of free spins is 1,000. 

This title is also part of the ‘Jackpot Blitz’ series of online slots UK, meaning that four progressive jackpots are included. At random, players can be taken to a screen that contains 20 diamonds, with a different jackpot behind each. These diamonds must then be selected one at a time, until three of the same jackpots appear, at which point the corresponding value will be awarded to the player. 

In total, there is a Mini, Minor, Major, and Blitz jackpot, with seed values of 50.00, 500.00, 5,000.00, and 100,000.00. As these are progressive jackpots, a portion of each wager will be added to the value of each. There is no minimum stake size required for the jackpot feature to activate, either! 

Play Buffalo Blitz Megaways at bwin

While the theme of Buffalo Blitz Megaways is rather simple, the range of different features certainly helps to keep things entertaining. One of the standout aspects is the ability for players to choose their bonus mode from a total of four different options. There are also four progressive jackpots that can be awarded at random, regardless of the bet size! 

Although the demographics of jealousy are difficult to study, researchers do have special concern about child and adolescent jealousy. According to legendary child entertainer Fred Rogers (commonly known as Mr. Rogers), competition can be tricky for very young children, likely causing jealousy to rear its ugly head when it becomes evident that parental love and attention must be shared with others.

All in the Family

Sibling rivalry is also very common in multi-child households, causing angst between children and for the parents who have to put up with near constant bickering. Unfortunately for weary parents, this behavior is completely normal.

Kidshealth.org recommends that parents refrain from getting involved in sibling arguments unless there’s a threat of physical harm. This forces the children to deal with the squabble themselves, rather than relying on the parent(s) to iron it out. It also minimizes the risk that the parent may subconsciously side with one child over another, amping up the fodder for fights.

Experts also encourage parents to keep the peace by proactively spending one-on-one time with each child and reminding them regularly that true parental love does not have limits, among other things.

Young Friendships

As if adolescence is not challenging enough, a study in the journal Developmental Psychology found that adolescents who experience low self-esteem and extreme loneliness tend to worry that friendships are threatened by others, causing jealousy that can lead to aggressive behavior.

The researchers found that intimacy (in this case through friendship) begets vulnerability, resulting in jealousy and aggression.

A sample size of 500 fifth through ninth grade students were evaluated to assess these vulnerabilities. For example, the questions were designed to find out what level of jealousy resulted in hypothetical situations, such as if their best friend went shopping with someone else.

The researchers also surveyed peers about their perceived opinions of jealous behavior in others. The study determined that adolescents with lower levels of self-worth were more likely to become jealous. In addition, the jealous adolescents studied were more inclined to become either physically or passively aggressive — ignoring people with whom they were angry.

The study also reinforced beliefs about females being more jealous than males. This group of researchers attributes this to the idea that girls have higher standards of loyalty, kindness, empathy and commitment than boys, so they become more jealous when these standards are not met.

The underlying factor in this negative behavior is the same as it is for everyone — adolescents fear losing friendships, so they behave in a jealous manner to “protect” them, even if their behavior is actually destructive.

‘Green With Envy’

Why are jealousy and envy referred to so often in shades of green? “Othello,” one of William Shakespeare’s most famous plays, is a tale wrought with jealousy. The title character is manipulated with such skill by his best friend that he begins to believe his wife has been unfaithful to him.

The manipulator, Iago, continues his treachery by “warning” Othello of the dangers of jealousy: “O, beware, my lord, of jealousy; It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock…” Jealousy is also noted this way by authors such as Ovid and Chaucer and in such uses as “green with envy.”

It is thought by some to date back to the ancient Greeks, who believed that jealousy resulted in the overproduction of bile, turning human skin a light shade of green.

Saatnya untuk meninjau salah satu operator game online yang paling lama berdiri, Dafabet!

Sebagaimana segera Anda simak, ada lebih banyak pilihan yangtersedia untuk Anda di Dafabet daripada kasino lain dalam ulasan kami tentangsitus judi yang sah.

Tentang Dafabet

Dafabet didirikan pada tahun 2004 dan berbasis di Manilla di Filipina. Mereka berlisensi penuh berdasarkan yurisdiksi Filipina. Namun, kepemilikan perusahaan mereka terdaftar sebagai Bayview Technologies, yang memiliki alamat di British Virgin Islands. Para pendukung merek ini jelas berkantong tebal, dan Dafabet telah tumbuh menjadi salah satu operasi perjudian online terbesar tidak hanya di Asia tetapi di seluruh dunia.

Meskipun Dafabet terutama adalah kasino yang berorientasi ke Asia, terlihat jelas bahwa mereka agresif dalam mengejar  traffic internasional. Hal ini dapat dicontohkan dengan jumlah uang yang dihabiskan oleh perusahaan untuk sponsor tim sepak bola utama Inggris. Anda dapat menemukan logo Dafabet yang ditampilkan secara jelas pada kaus Celtic FC, Sunderland FC, Burnlea FC, dan Blackburn Rovers FC. Sponsor tersebut tidak murah dan biasanya hanya tersedia untuk para raksasa industri.

Siapa yang Bisa Bermain di Dafabet

Seperti yang telah kami sebutkan, Dafabet terutama merupakan kasino yang berorientasi ke Asia, sebagaimana terlihat dalam tampilan dan nuansa situs web dan halaman depan mereka. Namun, kasino tetap menerima pemain dari seluruh dunia, menampilkan permainan dengan lebih dari 20 mata uang yang berbeda sesuai keinginan pemain mereka. Ada beberapa pembatasan pada siapa yang bisa bertaruh di Dafabet; batasan ini biasanya berasal dari peraturan perizinan atau dari pemasok perangkat lunak itu sendiri. Sesuai dengan Syarat dan Ketentuan Dafabet, berikut adalah daftar negara-negara yang saat ini dibatasi untuk memainkan permainan mereka:

Hong Kong S.A.R., Macau S.A.R., AS atau wilayahnya, Israel, Inggris, Prancis, Spanyol, Portugal, Swiss, Irlandia, Siprus, Turki, Taiwan, Singapura, dan Republik Filipina.

Anda mungkin terkejut melihat negara seperti Inggris dan Irlandia yang tercantum di sini mengingat belanja Dafabet saat ini yang mensponsori klub sepak bola di negara-negara tersebut. Apa yang mungkin tidak Anda ketahui adalah bahwa dua liga sepak bola ini memiliki pengaruh yang luar biasa secara global, khususnya di Asia, jadi membayar mahal untuk mensponsori tim-tim itu masih sepadan dengan harganya. Seperti biasa, pembatasan ini dapat berubah setiap saat, karena itu adalah ide yang bagus untuk memeriksa situs web Dafabet sebelum Anda mencoba membuka akun.

Beberapa Keunggulan Dafabet

Jackpot

Astaga! Jika Anda seorang pecandu Jackpot seperti saya, maka saya yakinkan Anda bahwa Dafabet adalah tempat untuk Anda! Dafabet menawarkan tidak kurang dari USD 65.000.000 di live jackpot (pada saat ulasan ini ditulis) dengan puluhan permainan slot dan permainan meja. Ini adalah kumpulan game progresif terbesar dari kasino mana pun yang pernah saya ulas. Saya ingin tahu apakah itu karena tidak ada yang pernah menang jackpot ini, tetapi jujur, Anda bodoh jika tidak menyempatkan untuk memainkan beberapa permainan.

Cara menyampaikan informasi jackpot adalah apa yang sangat saya sukai tentang permainan yang ada di Dafabet. Ambil satu pertandingan sebagai contoh. Mesin slot mereka, Jackpot Giant, memiliki progresif saat ini hampir 7,5 juta dolar. Jika Anda mengklik permainan di tab Jackpot di halaman depan, jendela pop-up dengan grafik yang menunjukkan total jackpot bergulir masuk ke layar Anda. Di sana, Anda dapat melihat apakah ada kemenangan baru-baru ini, dan seberapa cepat game ini dikucurkan dalam beberapa hari terakhir. Informasi ini sangat penting bagi para pemain yang mencoba untuk menandai potensi terjadinya jackpot. Saya mendorong Anda semua untuk terjun dalam permainan ini secara khusus. Saya rasa tidak akan sampai ke angka 8 juta sebelum membayar seorang pemenang!

Aplikasi Seluler Tersedia

Sepertinya semakin hari kita tidak lagi tergantung pada laptop. Ini tidak mengherankan; perangkat seluler kita memiliki kekuatan komputasi yang hampir sama, dan dengan penyimpanan awan (cloud storage) sekarang telah menjadi hal biasa, menjinjing laptop seberat kurang lebih 4 kg menjadi hal yang tidak masuk akal untuk jaman sekarang.

Para penjudi online juga suka membuat taruhan melalui telepon mereka, tetapi bahkan halaman web yang dioptimalkan terbaik untuk ponsel bisa tampil dengan lambat, dan dapat mematikan para petaruh olahraga yang mencari keuntungan. Dafabet adalah yang terdepan dalam teknologi game seluler dengan menawarkan aplikasi untuk situs mereka, yang dapat diunduh untuk perangkat Android dan iOS. Aplikasi mereka memungkinkan Anda memainkan semua permainan mereka termasuk kasino dan poker, dengan tampilan dan nuansa layar sangat baik.

Ingatlah bahwa sementara kami selalu bersikap progresif di ruang judi online, operator seluler telah meluangkan waktu untuk menyaingi apa yang kami tawarkan. Untuk alasan hukum, banyak negara yang dibatasi untuk mengunduh aplikasi seluler Dafabet. Bagi Anda yang mengalami hal seperti itu, Anda masih dapat memiliki pengalaman luar biasa melalui halaman browser seluler mereka. Jika Anda memiliki kesempatan, Anda tidak akan kecewa dengan mengunduh aplikasi Dafabet.

Kekurangan Dafabet

Jumlah bonus tidak terdaftar dalam berbagai mata uang

Saya tahu, ini mungkin tampak seperti hal sepele untuk dipersoalkan, tetapi jika Dafabet memang mencoba untuk menarik lebih banyak penonton global, maka mereka harus memperbaiki bagian dari promosi mereka. Semua promosi tercantum dalam Ringgit Malaysia (setidaknya mereka untuk saya ketika saya membuka situs dari Kanada). Padahal, faktanya saya membaca seluruh situs dalam bahasa Inggris. Untuk seseorang yang mungkin baru dalam soal promosi di kasino online, ini bisa sangat membingungkan. Saya harus mencari secara online untuk mengetahui tingkat konversi (saat ini 0,23 USD untuk 1 RM) dan itu berarti menambah proses. Saya tidak terkesan bahwa konversi ini belum ditampilkan ke dalam teks setiap promosi.

Bonus Selamat Datang yang Tidak Menarik

Orang-orang di Dafabet tampaknya mencari para pemain yangserius, yang tidak hanya menyalahgunakan mereka untuk bonus deposit pertama dankemudian pergi. Akibatnya, Bonus Selamat Datang tidak terlalu menarik; sepertitercermin dalam bonus pertandingan hingga USD 150 (jumlah perkiraan berdasarkannilai tukar). Ada batasan tentang bagaimana Anda bisa mendapatkan bonustergantung pada apakah Anda bermain olahraga atau di kasino, tetapi Dafabetmenghabiskan lebih banyak waktu dan usaha pemasaran mereka untuk jackpot danpromosi yang sedang berlangsung.

Sportsbook Dafabet

Dafabet adalah situs taruhan olahraga pertama dan terkemuka. Ini terlihat segera setelah Anda sampai ke beranda situs mereka, sebagaimana logo dan informasi olahraga ditempatkan di lokasi utama. Sportsbook Dafabet menjalankan platform iCore dari Comtrade Gaming. Platform ini performanya sangat kuat dan dapat mendukung berbagai macam opsi taruhan dan olahraga yang signifikan. Saya sangat senang dengan kecepatan platform ini ketika mencari taruhan yang berbeda-beda.

Jenis Olahraga yang Tersedia

Anda tidak akan pernah merasa kekurangan pilihan olahraga yang dapat Anda pertaruhkan di Dafabet. Bahkan, liga dan permainan yang tersedia pada waktu tertentu bisa jadi sangat banyak. Saya menganggap diri saya seorang penjudi olahraga yang cukup berpengetahuan, namun saya tetap terkagum-kagum pada liga yang ada dalam daftar lines dan taruhan di Dafabet.

Ini hanya sedikit contoh dari apa yang dapat Anda pertaruhkan di Dafabet Sportsbook:

•     Liga Champions UEFA

•     Liga Utama Inggris

•     Bundesliga Jerman

•     La Liga Spanyol

•     Serie A Italia

•     Ligue 1 Prancis

•     Eredivisie Belanda

•     Liga Pro Jupiler Belgia

•     Liga Premier Skotlandia

•     Primeira Liga Portugal

Taruhan Live-Streaming dan In-Game

Bagi Anda yang menginginkan lebih banyak aksi daripada hanya bertaruh pada hasil pertandingan sebelum dimulai, Dafabet membuat Anda terpikat! Mereka menawarkan live streaming dari bermacam pertandingan olahraga besar (dan kecil), bersama dengan sesuatu yang mereka sebut SpeedBets. Pada dasarnya ini adalah taruhan in-game yang mengijinkan Anda untuk memasang taruhan untuk permainan berikutnya, pencetak gol berikutnya, dll. Apa yang menyenangkan tentang ini (dan bikin kecanduan) adalah Anda dapat membuat taruhan in-match tentang poin tenis individual (omong-omong, saya suka tenis). Pikirkan tentang berapa banyak poin yang dimainkan dalam pertandingan di Prancis Terbuka! Begitu. Banyak. Taruhan. Saat ini, bagi saya ini merupakan cara terbaik untuk lebih interaktif dalam permainan dengan serangkaian taruhan berjumlah kecil, dan saya berharap hal ini akan menjadi lebih populer di sportsbook Amerika Utara di tahun-tahun mendatang.

ESports dan Permainan Angka

Belum pernah merasa puas dalam berjudi pun setelah menjelajahi semua opsi di dunia olahraga yang sebenarnya? Jangan khawatir, Dafabet juga bersiap untuk kebutuhan bertaruh virtual Anda! Situs ini menawarkan platform taruhan eSports yang komprehensif, dan dengan feed Twitch yang dibangun tepat di halaman taruhan mereka, Anda dapat melompat terjun langsung ke dunia taruhan dan bertaruh untuk orang-orang yang bermain video game! Dunia eSPorts (dan taruhannya) sangat besar di Asia saat ini, jadi tidak mengherankan untuk melihat selusin live feed atau lebih dengan puluhan ribu pemirsa.

Nah, jika Anda seorang pecandu taruhan yang sesungguhnya, maka Game Angka atau Numbers Game Dafabet adalah untuk Anda. Jika Anda tidak akrab dengan Numbers Games, sebenarnya itu adalah permainan yang sangat mirip dengan Bingo karena ada 75 angka, tetapi bayangkan jika Anda dapat bertaruh pada angka tersebut seperti yang Anda lakukan di rolet? Pola taruhan antara Bingo dan Numbers Game sangat mirip, dan terdapat odds pada angka individual, kombinasi angka atau angka tinggi/rendah. Tidak hanya itu, ada ratusan game yang berlangsung bersamaan, jadi jika Anda mencari pola atau nomor favorit yang belum pernah keluar, Anda dapat melakukan semua riset yang Anda inginkan. Numbers Game sangat populer di pasar taruhan Asia, dan Dafabet memiliki sajian yang sempurna baik untuk para petaruh veteran maupun petaruh pemula.

Promosi

Dafabet telah mengatur promosi mereka agar terlihat unik untuk setiap permainan yang Anda mainkan. Masuk akal karena mengingat betapa berbedanya persyaratan bertaruh untuk setiap jenis permainan. Untuk sportsbook, Dafabet menawarkan beberapa opsi untuk bonus dan cashback, lebih jauh mencengkeram masuk ke dalam olahraga individu dalam upaya untuk mendorong bisnis dari seluruh penjuru dunia. Mari kita lihat beberapa promosi mereka saat ini:

Rabat Mix Parlay

Ini adalah promosi cashback untuk orang yang membuat taruhan parlay di berbagai olahraga yang berbeda. Dafabet mengandalkan petaruh yang tidak tahu banyak tentang satu olahraga dibanding yang lain, dan itulah mengapa promosi ini didasarkan pada taruhan multi-olahraga. Berikut detail dari situs web:

Rabat tanpa batas untuk semua taruhan Mix Parlay Anda, menang atau kalah! Semakin banyak Mix Parlay yang Anda pasang, semakin tinggi bonus rabat yang akan Anda terima.

Bagaimana Agar Memenuhi Kualifikasi?

Bertaruh setidaknya RM 10 pada Mix Parlay dengan odds minimal 1,2 untuk memenuhi syarat mendapatkan Rabat Parlay Tanpa Batas. Paling sedikit harus ada 2 pilihan pada taruhan mixed parlay untuk memenuhi syarat.

Pemain yang memenuhi syarat akan mendapatkan rabat 2,5% dari taruhan Mix Parlay mereka.

Bonus untuk pemain yang memenuhi syarat akan dikreditkan ke akun mereka dalam waktu 24 jam setelah taruhan mereka diselesaikan.

Tentu saja, ada beberapa kondisi untuk memenuhi syarat mendapatkan bonus ini, tetapi setidaknya mereka menjelaskan di depan tentang syarat-syarat ini dan memposting aturan tepat di halaman promosi.

Bonus Frekuensi

Ini adalah bonus dalam jumlah kecil namun terasa menyenangkan bagi pemain yang ingin membuat taruhan konsisten sepanjang bulan. Sebenarnya ini adalah bonus kesetiaan atau loyalty bonus, dan beginilah cara kerja Bonus Frekuensi:

Target bulanan: RM 550 dalam Deposit, dengan omset sebesar RM 1000.

Hadiah dinaikkan apabila target terpenuhi selama beberapa bulan secara berturut-turut. Bonus Frekuensi ini merupakan cara promosi sederhana yang sangat baik untuk menghargai pemain yang sering berkunjung ke situs Dafabet.

Program VIP

Dafabet memiliki Program VIP untuk petaruh olahraga yang disebut Dafabet FC. Persyaratan program ini cukup mudah: begitu Anda mendaftar untuk program (ya, Anda perlu mendaftar untuk turut serta), Anda akan menerima cashback otomatis setiap minggu, dan juga bonus ulang tahun khusus, bonus hari jadi, serta bonus isi ulang mingguan.

Casino Dafabet

Meskipun Dafabet sebenarnya sangat terfokus pada olahraga,itu tidak berarti mereka tidak menghabiskan waktu dan upaya untuk memberikanyang terbaik dalam penawaran casino online. Dafabet telah memilih pelaku industriraksasa Playtech sebagai penyedia platform casino mereka, dan ini berarti hanyagame terbaik yang mereka sediakan. Setiap kali saya melihat kasino beroperasidi platform Playtech, saya tahu bahwa mereka dapat dipercaya karena orang-orangdi Playtech tidak menerima siapa pun yang belum lulus uji kemampuan secara tuntas.Selain itu, game ini harganya tidak murah, jadi setiap operator harus memiliki modalyang banyak hanya untuk mendapatkan lisensi Playtech. Playtech memiliki daftarjudul yang luas termasuk konten luar biasa yang pasti akan menyenangkan parapembaca kami. Mari kita lihat apa saja yang ditawarkan oleh kasino.

Slot

Kami telah membahas fakta bahwa Dafabet menawarkan game slot progresif terbesar dalam industri casino online saat ini, dengan jutaan uang bonus tersedia untuk dimenangkan. Daftar slot selengkapnya dari Playtech sangat mengesankan.

Poker Video

Dafabet adalah tempat yang bagus untuk menemukan permainan video poker. Meskipun mereka tidak memiliki semua varian yang tersedia, tersedia 8 permainan poker video yang siap untuk memainkan semua fitur opsi multi-hands  yang memperluas kualitas dan kuantitas hands yang dapat dipertaruhkan pemain.

Permainan Meja dan Permainan Khusus

Dafabet menawarkan para pemainnya berbagai Permainan Meja (Table Games) dan Permainan Khusus. Seperti yang biasanya bisa diharapkan dari perangkat lunak Playtech, masing-masing permainan ini memang tangguh dan mengedepankan grafis dan gameplay yang sangat baik.

Promosi

Casino Dafabet memiliki seperangkat promosi sendiri yang dirancang untuk mengarahkan pemain ke permainan meja dan slot mereka. Meskipun saat ini tidak terlalu banyak promosi yang sedang berlangsung, satu pembeda yang bagus untuk casino Dafabet adalah bonus selamat datang bagi para pemain, di mana mereka menawarkan cashback 100% hingga RM 1500 untuk pemain slot ataupun pemain permainan meja. Persyaratan promosi tidaklah yang paling jelas dibandingkan promosi serupa di tempat lain, seperti tercantum di bawah ini langsung disalin dari situs web Dafabet:

•     Semua pemain baru akan bergabung dengan Cash Back Club secara otomatis. Ini berarti, semua pemain bisa mendapatkan manfaat Cash Back Club.

•     Jika pemain ingin mendapatkan Bonus Deposit Pertama 100% Cash Back Club hingga RM 688, pemain harus memilih RM sebagai mata uang pilihan dan harus menaruh deposit pertama kali minimal RM 50.

•     Jika pemain ingin mendapatkan 100% Bonus Slots Club First Deposit hingga RM1,500, pemain harus menghubungi Representatif Pelanggan Casino Dafabet sebelum menyetor deposit pertama atau sebelum memainkan game pertama.

•     Untuk memenuhi syarat mendapatkan bonus ini, pemain harus menyetor deposit pertama minimal RM 40.

Program VIP

Program VIP Casino Dafabet lebih detail dari versi Sportsbook mereka. Platform ini dibagi menjadi dua kategori, Cashback Club dan Slots Club. Setiap klub memiliki level yang berbeda dan setiap kali pemain melintasi setiap level akan meningkatkan settingan reward mereka. Terutama, insentif di setiap level dibangun berdasarkan tingkat konversi poin ke mata uang dan jumlah cashback yang diberikan kembali kepada pemain.

Apa yang saya suka tentang program ini selain tidak rumit adalah bahwa program ini jelas terbagi untuk mereka yang suka bermain permainan meja dan untuk penggemar slot. Sering kali keduanya dicampur dan itu dapat mempermudah Program VIP, tetapi Dafabet jelas menyadari hal ini ketika mereka menghadirkan program rewards mereka.

Poker Dafabet

Dafabet juga menghadirkan penawaran poker yang tangguh untuk para pemainnya melalui perangkat lunak Playtech iPoker. Perangkat lunak ini adalah aplikasi yang dapat diunduh yang menawarkan semua permainan uang tunai dan turnamen terbaik yang tersedia di jaringan iPoker. Menjadi bagian dari jaringan gabungan pemegang lisensi Playtech lainnya juga memungkinkan untuk penawaran hadiah yang lebih besar. Semakin banyak likuiditas yang dimiliki sebuah situs, semakin banyak yang dapat ditawarkan sebagaimana penawaran promosi juga.

Platform Poker Dafabet juga tersedia di perangkat seluler, meskipun di ponsel game ini tidak akan secepat dibandingkan unduhan aplikasi. Juga, jika Anda adalah tipe pemain yang senang bermain multi-hands saat bermain poker, Anda harus melakukannya dari PC Anda karena platform seluler saat ini tidak mendukung jenis permainan seperti itu.

Promosi

Dafabet menawarkan beberapa jenis promosi poker standar untuk pemain mereka, yang merupakan sesuatu yang ingin saya saksikan. Satu hal yang saya perhatikan adalah bahwa beberapa promosi poker mungkin terkait dengan jaringan dan tidak berbasis lokal, karena ini adalah satu-satunya penawaran yang terdaftar dalam USD di seluruh situs mereka. USD adalah mata uang standar untuk sebagian besar situs poker, jadi ketika melihat promosi mereka, penting untuk mempertimbangkan bahwa Anda mungkin menghadapi kumpulan pesaing yang lebih besar yang semuanya ingin membawa pulang hadiah! Mari kita lihat beberapa promosi yang kami sukai:

Freeroll

Semua orang suka mendapatkan sesuatu secara gratis, dan ini berlaku khususnya untuk komunitas poker. Dafabet menawarkan freeroll untuk semua jenis untuk pemain mereka, dari permainan mikro yang membayar hadiah USD 5 sampai ke freeroll deposan bulanan yang memiliki kumpulan hadiah ribuan dolar. Jenis turnamen ini adalah cara terbaik untuk membangun bankroll tanpa harus mengambil risiko apa pun, jadi Anda harus memainkan turnamen ini sebanyak mungkin yang Anda bisa saat Anda membuat akun di Dafabet.

Perbankan

Sebuah situs yang bergengsi seperti Dafabet tentunya memiliki metode pembayaran terbaik yang tersedia untuk para pemainnya. Dafabet telah berkecimpung dalam bisnis selama lebih dari satu dekade, yang berarti telah memiliki waktu untuk membangun hubungan jangka panjang dengan para pemroses pembayaran dari seluruh dunia. Karena itu, tidak akan ada masalah apa pun yang mengintai Anda sehubungan dengan setoran dan penarikan dana dari mereka.

Ada banyak opsi pembayaran yang berlaku di Asia, dan untuk daftar lengkapnya, Anda harus merujuk ke situs web Dafabet.

Pelayanan pelanggan

Dengan gembira saya menyatakan bahwa ketika saya menghubungi layanan pelanggan Dafabet, saya diberi pilihan bahasa apa yang saya inginkan untuk menerima layanan saya, dan agen tersebut sepertinya memiliki pemahaman penuh atas pertanyaan saya serta memberikan tanggapan yang sangat cepat. Di atas semua itu, hanya perlu waktu kurang dari dua menit untuk terhubung ke agen, yang sangat cepat dibandingkan dengan beberapa kasino yang telah saya ulas sebelumnya.

Dafabet juga menawarkan layanan pelanggan pemain mereka melalui email dan 24/7 telepon bebas pulsa dalam beberapa bahasa. Menurut pendapat saya, mereka disiapkan untuk memberikan Anda layanan pelanggan terbaik yang pada gilirannya akan membuat Anda menjadi setia sebagai pemain di Dafabet.

Apakah saya sebaiknya Bermain di Dafabet?

Tidak ada keraguan bahwa setelah tinjauan rinci tentang segala sesuatu yang Dafabet tawarkan kepada pelanggannya, saya akan sangat merekomendasikan bermain di kasino ini. Persembahan permainan dari Playtech adalah yang terbaik, layanan pelanggan cepat dan dapat diandalkan. Selain itu, perusahaan ini telah berkecimpung dalam bisnis selama lebih dari satu dekade dan memiliki reputasi yang sangat baik dalam hal keamanan. Meskipun saya belum tentu menyukai tim sepak bola yang telah mereka sponsori (go Tottenham!), saya akan memberi mereka apresiasi karena membelanjakan uang yang sangat banyak yang dibutuhkan untuk mencapai tingkat eksposur seperti itu.

We sit down with our Vice President of Global Gaming to discuss the upcoming changes to the UK’s gambling sector, the need for continued industry collaboration, and how to safeguard against the undeniable growth of the unlicensed market.

On the surface, there appears to be little in common between the tiny Caribbean island of Curaçao, and the densely populated island of the United Kingdom, but both will be important case studies in the evolution of the online gambling market, according to Roger Redfearn-Tyrzyk, Vice President of Global Gaming at IDnow.  

While the established UK gambling market is undergoing a series of changes to its regulatory framework to reflect the digital age, Curacao, a market known for its low barrier to entry and little to no scrutiny from operators, is also reforming its licensing regime.  

Important endeavors that Roger believes need to be undertaken carefully or run the risk of an exodus of licensed operators and increase in the use of the illegal market. 

“This conundrum is shared across many international jurisdictions, including the Netherlands, Sweden, Ontario, and very soon, France,” explains Roger. “An open and fair environment is no guarantee of success. If we look at Norway, for example, many of the world’s most experienced and trusted operators have pulled out, leaving players with the binary choice of using a monopolized industry, or unlicensed operators.” 

Although a delicate task to complete, offering a regulated gambling environment is key to the sustainable growth of a jurisdiction’s gambling market, and the pivotal third pillar in propping up a safe, secure and protected player environment. A burden of responsibility that any regulator must share with the operator and player.  

“In my opinion, it is first and foremost the operator’s responsibility to provide a safe and responsible gambling experience, because this is good for the operator’s business model. However, this must be facilitated by a reliable regulatory environment that is proactive in its fight against fraud and the illegal market. So, the regulator needs to be an ally to those licensed operators. This is how the player will become better protected.” 

In this interview, Roger shares his insights on the likely impact of the now mandatory financial risk checks in the UK, the real reason UK operators are subjected to such high and regular fines, why most operators are looking at KYC completely wrong, and much more.

The United Kingdom Gambling Commission (UKGC) has started its first round of consultations. Do you agree with UKGC’s four areas of priority? Do you think there are other more pressing areas that it should have started with?  

It was 2018 when the UKGC started to discuss issues around affordability, but back then it was under the umbrella topic of customer interactions, and markers of harm were not the center of focus. 

Financial risk and financial vulnerability is the right topic to prioritize and the most important consultation to undertake, because affordability is the comfort zone for the player and the operator’s business. A gambling platform should be running its business with a business plan that is in line with its risk appetite, and ability to invest and be exposed to financial impact. In online casinos, there can be big losses and big payouts, so it’s important to balance the comfort zone of the operator with the comfort zone of the player. 

Ultimately, affordability is the customer playing and spending money in a way that is going to be sustainable in the long term for the business and the customer.  

Regarding the control of marketing and advertising consultation, however, I don’t think it’s detailed enough in terms of what they are trying to achieve. For example, what ‘good’ actually looks like has not been defined. It’s still quite vague, particularly in terms of the coordination and cooperation between the Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice (LCCP) from the UKGC, Competition and Markets Authority regulations, Advertising Standards Authority, and The UK Code of Broadcast Advertising requirements. As there are many contradictions between the various rules, I think the first consultation should be around organizing and encouraging those different regulatory bodies to have one set of objectives, ambitions, and rules. 

What effect do you foresee the now mandatory financial risk checks to have on the UK gambling market?  

If the mandatory financial risk checks really end up being as ‘frictionless’ as the UKGC promises, then this is an opportunity to improve the relationship between the player and the operator, because the financial risk check will allow the operator to better know his customer and better tailor their offering; the pace and velocity of the game, and amounts that are going to be offered, either through marketing or the games themselves. 

I’m unaware of any operator that asks players what kind of games they prefer, or whether they’re playing for the thrill or something else. Usually, they will assess this based on the choice of games made by the players. 

So, used correctly, affordability markers of harm and behavioral analysis will enable the operator to increase and improve the granularity of the relationship, or even initiate that relationship between the operator and the players. The other effect is that if it is not as frictionless as is promised, for example, credit checks are not granted to licensed operators, then the immediate effect is going to be a tremendous increase in the illegal market – what is called the black markets – and operators not licensed in the UK and not abiding by the UKGC and LCCP rules are simply going to offer their services illegally to players in the UK.

Responsible gambling has been a recurring theme for many years and features quite heavily in the UK gambling white paper. What does responsible gambling mean to you, and where should the burden of responsibility lie with regards to providing a safe and responsible gambling experience: with the regulator, the operator, or both? 

If we look at the history of responsible gambling, the burden to play responsibly has always been on the player. 

The original approach was that if the player engages in problem gambling, it is because he decided to not use the tools as provided by the operator. The operator only had the responsibility to inform the players of the tools that were available to limit his activity. 

Then the industry started to evolve toward safer gambling, meaning the operator accepted its responsibility to create a proactively safe environment, where they conduct behavioral analysis to identify the variations and deviations of player behavior in activity, and proactively interact with players. This led the UKGC to devise its three-pillar strategy of Identify, Act, and Evaluate. 

So there has been a shift from blaming players for problem gambling to accepting that not all players are necessarily aware of the amount of activity that they are engaging in, or the variations of activity they’ve displayed, and that the operator plays a very important part toward empowering player control through transparency, information sharing, interaction and action, alongside the actions of the player, of course.  

So, this shift really reflects this balancing of the two comfort zones: Who is my player? What is he capable of in terms of the games we are offering? It might be a very rich person that has an extremely high-risk appetite and high affordability, but does that mean he is impervious to harm? Not necessarily. You’ll have some players that have a very low level of affordability, but occasionally they’ll want that thrill. Should we prevent them from having that thrill just because they are not rich? Those are the questions around responsible gambling, affordability and the adequation between the comfort zones. And this is where KYC becomes the compass and blueprint for an operator’s business model: to understand their players, asses the appetite of their players, where you can create fair and transparent promotions that reflect the comfort zone between the operator and player.  

With most gambling and gaming now taking place online, how important will technology, and in particular KYC and onboarding platforms, be in ensuring a safe and secure gaming experience? 

Operators and regulators need to move away from viewing KYC as a process, or “tick box” exercise, and instead focus on the original purpose of KYC as a founding principle of running a sustainable business. 

The problem, however, is that many operators are either not currently capable or are not effectively using the data they have access to build a single image of who the player is.  

If you ask any operator if they had a single view and a single understanding of who their customer is, very few have a reliable, accurate, single view across their whole estate. So having this information on an industry level is pointless until operators themselves can aggregate this information, which will enable them to switch from the mindset that KYC is a process, to KYC is a business driver.

In information released since the publication of both the government and UKGC’s plans, Gambling Commission CEO, Andrew Rhodes, has said that the UKGC’s plans set out changes to ensure the UK is the safest and fairest place to gamble in the world. How feasible do you think this will be in a country that received a record-breaking £44.6 million fine in 2022; a 76% increase on 2021? Why do you think UK operators consistently receive such hefty fines? 

There may be a link between the first and second question. If the UK is handing out so many fines, it could indicate that the UK is not a place where licensed operators are operating in a safe and fair way and are therefore heavily penalized for that.  

Knowing many operators in the UK, however, I do not think this is the reason they receive such hefty fines, so there’s a question around what the fines say about the UK’s regulated landscape. 

What I do know, and what we have seen recently, is many operators withdrawing from licensed activity in the UK, which will ultimately leave just the bigger operators offering services. Will it be fair in terms of pricing and the services that players will receive? I’m far from convinced.  

The second impact of the large and consistent fines is going to be operators applying for UK licenses with no intention of operating in the UK. Their market and customer base, whether in Asia, in Latin America, or Africa will be attracted by the prestige of the UK license. So, I think the UK gambling market will end up as an oligopoly, or filled with brands that have no intention of operating in the UK.  

The illegal market will take great pleasure in catering to customers seeking a frictionless gaming experience, and I think this is extremely worrying. 

The UKGC should have regular discussions with the gambling industry to ensure the UK remains an attractive place for operators and investors. If most small and midsize investors in gambling companies are fleeing the UK, this is extremely worrying.

From established gambling markets like the UK to the tiny Caribbean Island of Curaçao, regulatory authorities are balancing offering competitive and flexible approaches to licensing and taxation with a safe and secure environment that discourages fraud and illegal gambling. What effect do you think Curacao’s stricter requirements have on the online gambling industry, and what lessons can be learned? 

If we look at the specific case of Curaçao and the redesign of their regulations and implementation of stricter requirements, this will lead to increased blame of players in problem gambling. 

As part of its news licensing structure, Curaçao will request operators to offer better complaints management, meaning they will be responsible for effectively handling complaints by offering more ways for the player to express their discontent. 

So, under the guise of stricter requirements and stricter responsibility, Curaçao regulations are not actually going to empower the player much more by requiring stronger action from operators, but this is a way to grant more direct responsibility for the operators, which today they do not have, so this is certainly progress. 

But the player will remain hostage to the goodwill of the operators. I think these stricter requirements have been put in place to adapt to a world where local regulators from each country are more aware of the capabilities of operators in providing a safe playing environment, and how to fulfil their role as offering better interactions with customers. 

This is something we see in the Netherlands, Sweden, and Ontario because they know that players need to be protected, and they know that players are best protected when the whole environment Is cooperating, when the regulator provides a reliable framework, and when the operator is interacting in a way that balances the comfort zone of the player with the comfort zone of the business. In this way, the player is protected via regulations, in terms of requirements of fairness, of marketing, transparency, help that they can receive and obligations from the operators.

Developer Chicken Launcher and publisher Awaken Realms have announced Project Mist, an all-new open world survival-horror game for PC. If all goes according to plan, then we should have a clearer idea of what this newly formed IP will at least look like over the next several months. Until then, just know this: the studio behind Fresh Start and No Place Like Home is about to take its first steps into deeper, darker waters, and thus lose sight of its family-friendly roots along the way.

So, what more do you need to know about the upcoming venture? Well, if you are interested in seeing what’s to come of Chicken Launcher’s latest project, then be sure to read on. Here’s everything we currently know about Project Mist.

What Is Project Mist?

To give you an idea of what it’s all about, Project Mist is an upcoming open world survival-horror game—a love letter to the genre’s greats, if you will, and one that’ll promote infinite freedom and creative control. True to its word, the game won’t offer any form of hand-holding, and will therefore push its players to navigate, study, and adapt to a “harsh environment” off their own backs and without any guidance. Sound like your ideal cup of tea? If so, then read on.

In Chicken Launcher’s own words: “Join the Project Mist in this new open world survival horror. Explore an enigmatic Island. Fight against colossal monsters. Build and defend your base while crafting traps, siege weapons, upgrading your gear and Gravity Gun. Survive or perish while unraveling the secrets behind the giant wall!”

Story

In case you missed it, the story will revolve around a Great Wall—an oversized structure that seemingly resembles the remains of an old and decrepit world. As a survivor on the enigmatic island, you must embark on a quest to unravel the mysteries encased within the wall, as well as learn to survive the unforgiving elements and the relentless trials that each day brings. There’ll be enormous foes to tackle, encampments to scavenge, and enough crafting to see that little tent of yours blossom into a full-fledged communal hub.

At the time of writing, there’s still a great deal we don’t know about the wall in question, let alone what the future of the world will entail. For what it’s worth, though, we do know this: you won’t be alone, and you will, unfortunately, be one of the unfortunate souls who finds themselves sitting at the bottom of the food chain.

Gameplay

Chicken Launcher has described the game as being a survival-horror, which means we can definitely expect to see our fair share of exploration, crafting, and combat. It also states that it won’t feature any form of guidance, which means newcomers will need to learn how to keep their wits about themselves right from the get-go if they’re planning on surviving the horrors that loom in the darkness.

“In this unforgiving nightmare, every decision can be a matter of life or death,” reads the elevator pitch. “Your resourcefulness, cunning, and determination are your only allies against the unrelenting terror. Farm, cook, craft special consumables, weapons of war and ammunition.”

“Your base is your lifeline in this merciless world,” the description continues. “Build, fortify, and defend it against relentless threats. Craft traps, siege weapons, power mines, energy turrets and a whole array of arsenal to give yourself the upper hand in the fight for survival.”

Development

It’s definitely a first for Chicken Launcher, that’s for sure. And in case you’ve yet to brush up on your knowledge of the studio’s former works, then just know this: survival-horror isn’t one of its chosen subjects. On the contrary, the team has been known for its contributions in the farming and cutesy life simulation sphere — so Project Mist is certainly a step in a new direction for the developer.

According to the devs, Project Mist will be finding its way over to Steam at some point in the (hopefully) not-so future. And while we can’t say for certain when that is likely to be, we can say that, as far as teaser footage goes, the project appears to be working towards a 2024 launch. But don’t take our word on that, though.

Trailer

Project Mist caught your attention? If so, then you’ll be pleased to know that Chicken Launcher did actually post a gameplay trailer to its streaming handles earlier this week. Need we say more? You can catch a glimpse of what’s to come in the upcoming adventure in the trailer embedded above.

Release Date, Platforms & Editions

Project Mist will be launching on PC via Steam at some point in the foreseeable future. Does this mean it won’t be on Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch? As it stands, no. Having said that, it’s still early days, so while the likelihood of it arriving on consoles may seem low at present, it could be that it finds a port at some point in the not-so distant future.

Looking for a special pre-order edition to tide you over? Bad news there, I’m afraid. As it stands, both developer Chicken Launcher and publisher Awaken Realms have only teased the standard copy. You can go ahead and add that to your wishlist on Steam here.

Interested in staying up to date with Project Mist? If so, then be sure to check in with Chicken Launcher over on its official social handle for all the latest pre-launch updates here. If anything changes ahead of its global release, we’ll be sure to fill you in on all the key details right here on gaming.net.

So, what’s your take? Will you be picking up a copy of Project Mist when it eventually comes to Steam? Let us know your thoughts over on our socials here.

I started my career as a poker player just over 15 years ago, and my career as a staker a few years later. My motivation wasn’t entirely financial. It came out of a conversation I had with my oldest son Paddy in Vegas. Paddy is someone who is very socially conscious and keen to have a positive impact on the planet (at the time he was in his eco warrior phase).

When I expressed concern about the lack of positive contribution to humanity I was making in my own latest phase, the poker pro one, he shrugged and suggested that perhaps there was some way I could use my success to help others.

At the time post economic collapse and IMF bailout, Ireland was in the grips of deep recession and austerity, depriving younger people of many of the economic opportunities we had taken for granted only a few years earlier. Online poker was, however, still booming, and in it I saw the opportunity to provide a way out for young talent.

I decided to look around the local live scene in Ireland before eventually my gaze fell on a young low stakes cash grinder called Daragh Davey. Daragh also dabbled in tournaments both online and live. At this point he was grinding out a meagre living and had no really notable successes. As such, when I told people I’d decided to start staking him, the universal reaction was one of surprise.

“Why him? He’s done nothing special. Player X just got a big score in live tourney Y”

My primary reasons for choosing Daragh were his even temperament and his lack of ego which I felt would combine to make him hard working, disciplined, and possible to coach. His game wasn’t quite there yet as I quickly learned when I sent his hand histories to my new best friend David Lappin. At the time I did no coaching but David was already an experienced coach, so it was to him I turned to potentially coach Daragh.

After reviewing the hand histories, David rang me during the night (he didn’t think it could wait till morning) with his assessment:

“Stop staking him now before he loses another cent of your money. He plays like a coward”

Actually coward was not the word he used, but it’s probably best to leave it to you the reader to guess (clue: it rhymes with “fussy”). I stuck to my guns, hiring David to coach him, which was one of the best decisions I ever made. Over the next 18 months Daragh made us so much money he not only no longer needed staking, but had enough to become a staker himself in partnership with David and I as we expanded our operations into a collective, we called “the Firm”, staking about a dozen players.

While my initial foray into staking (Daragh) was an unqualified success, the same cannot be said for the Firm. There was no shortage of individual successes, and overall, we all made money (albeit probably not enough to justify the time we sank into it, and the stress it induced), but there were also heartbreaking cases of being stolen from by people we considered as friends, and players who just lost and lost no matter how much we coached them. Ultimately, we all quit staking as something not worth the time and hassle. In this article I want to look back at what I think were the most important lessons we learned

You have to trust your horses

I’ll start with this one because I think it’s the most important. It’s essentially the staking equivalent of Doyle Brandon’s first law of poker (don’t play in a game where you’re not sure you’ll be paid if you win). It doesn’t matter how good someone is or how much they will win in the long term: variance in poker is massive (that’s why winning players need staking in the first place).

The swings are much bigger than most people intuitively expect, and tournament players in particular spend 99.9% of their lives on a downswing. It’s not unusual for a player who wins 100k a year but to be 200k in the hole and 200k up at some point during that same year. If he does a runner with the money after the 200k bink, or disappears or can’t be motivated to keep plugging away when he’s 200k in the hole, you have a massive 200k problem as his staker.

One player I knew who already some experience as a staker expressed this as “You need people who will fight for you”. What he meant by this is you need players who will treat your money with the same respect they give to their own, rather than a freeroll to gamble with and shoot for the fences.

Most poker players are fundamentally decent honest people who won’t deliberately scam you, so you have less to worry about the guy who just won 200k disappearing than the guy buried in makeup just giving up or switching to a gamble-gamble approach. But obviously there are a few bad eggs who will deliberately steal from you, so don’t stake anyone you don’t trust on that front.

Coachability trumps talent

As I said my decision to start with Daragh was less based on where his game was at the time (there were many other young players in Ireland well ahead of him on that front at the time) but where it could go. He impressed me as somebody who could be coached. This was a very accurate assessment but one I didn’t fully realise the importance of at the time.

Later on, I encountered many players both in my staking business and my coaching one who simply can’t be coached (at least by me). I’m considerably better at spotting them these days than I was back then.

Here are the primary signs:

• Ego: Often the most naturally talented players are the most difficult to coach. This may be because their natural talent blinds them to their failings, and causes them to underestimate what they can learn from other less talented but more experienced or studious players

• Impatience: Ambition is good, but not when it tips over into impatience. An ambitious player wants to be the best they can be and achieve success within a certain time frame. An impatient player wants all that and more if not today then tomorrow.

• Bad Beats: any player who tells you endless bad beats and complains about their bad luck or variance is focusing on the wrong part of poker. The whole point of poker is that it is the variance that obscures the fact that it is the player with the superior strategy who will win in the long term, by allowing players with inferior strategies to win in the short term (encouraging them and others to keep playing). There’s a reason rich amateurs won’t play chess against grandmasters for money but will play poker or backgammon against strategically superior players.

• Argumentative: Debate is healthy but when you’re coaching someone you don’t want them arguing every single point. The best players I know are also the most unsure, the most prone to self-doubt and self-criticism, and most of the worst players I know seem supremely confident they never ever make a mistake.

Discipline and routines are vital

When I was staking Daragh, a friend of his told me he stopped going out and drinking on Saturdays, in preparation for Sunday, the most lucrative online grind of the week. That’s the sort of attitude you want your horses to have rather than “it’s not my money so who cares?” It’s important to educate anyone you do stake that in a very real sense it is their money because anything they lose goes on the makeup pile that has to be cleared before they get anything. The players need to be disciplined and have good routines, but the staked and stable need to have good processes too.

Know when to cut your losses

When I started the Firm with David Lappin, he brought up a concern: that the most profitable horses would make enough to go it alone (as had happened with Daragh) but the less profitable ones would require staking forever. This, he argued, meant that over time the average profitability of the players we staked would drop and we’d inevitably be left with the least profitable ones.

While it’s a good point and it’s certainly true it’s hard to maintain standards as the best players tend to leave and the worst to stay, it overlooks a number of factors. First, not all players who win enough to go it alone want to, for the same reason many people choose to stay employed rather than go for self-employment even when that’s clearly a more lucrative option (something I learned in my days in the tech sector when I was a contractor earnings multiple of the amounts the full-time employees I worked with).

Some people prioritize security and find it hard to sleep at night without it, and some players struggle with the reality of downswings when it’s their own money even if they intellectually understand they will win in the long run. Second, you can keep recruiting new players and guiding them to profitability. Third, and perhaps most importantly of all, you can cut your losses any time you want.

This third part is the part most stakers struggle the most with, and I include myself and my partners in that, for a couple of reasons. First, there’s a strong financial incentive to stick with your horses who are deep in makeup. If a horse who is out of makeup wins 100k, you get half of that (or whatever the agreed split is). If he’s 100k in makeup, you get it all. If you drop a horse in 100k of makeup, that 100k of your money that he lost is gone forever.

The second reason is a purely human one: it’s very hard to tell someone you don’t think they’re a profitable proposition anymore and you’re dropping them. It often spells the end of their dreams to be a professional player. However, it’s ultimately a lot kinder than prolonging the inevitable, keeping someone on the hook well past the point where there’s any likelihood, they’ll ever make a significant amount of money for themselves or their backers.

My biggest regret when I look back at my time as a staker is I didn’t recognize this at the time. Pretty much every player who lost us significant amounts of money were kept well past the point we all knew deep down it wasn’t happening for them.

The human mind very much hates accepting a loss. Any successful investor will tell you that the important question when deciding whether to sell is not “how much will I have made or lost if I sell now?” but rather “would I buy now at this price?” The poker staking equivalent is “Would I start staking this player right now if I wasn’t already?” If the answer is no, it’s time to cut your losses

Staking is not just taking

Most of us who started staking in the early days went into it naively thinking it was free money. We were all big winning players ourselves, so all we had to do was tell our horses what we knew and when they did what we did we’d all win. That was the theory: in practice everyone is different.

The biggest mistake poker players at every level tend to make is to think that everyone thinks the same as they do. Being a staker isn’t just a case of finding a potentially profitable player and then taking half the profit: you have to be able and willing to provide them with the individualized coaching and support they need to be successful.

Most of us who tried staking found it was not the gravy train we hoped for. Some like me were profitable but ultimately decided it wasn’t worth the time, effort and stress. Several top players I know but won’t name to spare their blushes bankrupted themselves chasing the gravy train. The stables that remain to this day like Team Xploit, Pocarr and BBZ are the ones who were the most professional in their approach and treated it as a business from day one rather than a side hustle or interesting sweat.

There’s variance but not just variance

Ultimately, I quit staking not just because I felt it had stopped being profitable enough to justify the effort and stress but also, I became concerned that it effectively ramped up my own variance. I observed that most former professional poker players had to go broke before they realized they weren’t beating the game anymore. There’s always the threat that the game will become unbeatable, at least online. If that happens when you’re not only bankrolling yourself but lots of other players too, the damage is multiplied.

These days I’m a lot more optimistic about the state of online poker, but the fact remains that if you’re stalking others, you’ll need to realize when the game is up that much faster to avoid going broke. The stables that have ridden out the variance best are the ones that put the most work into things like game selection (tracking which games on which sites are the most profitable), hand history reviews (to identify any leaks their horses might have) and mass data analysis (to identify leaks in different player pools that can be exploited).

In our group Daragh Davey was the only one to put much work into these, and ultimately the failure of the rest of us to do our fair share cost us all. Stables who do this work are not only more profitable for their owners, but also do a bigger service to their horses giving them the best chance to maximize their own earnings.

British Champions Day, the official end of the British Flat racing season, is next Saturday (21st October 2023) and never fails to excite, bringing together the very best horses of the season and crowning the final champions.

This guide will take you through the main races of the day and their most likely contenders.

Predictions for Qipco British Champions

Top Contenders for the Qipco British Champions Title

Currently top of the overall British Champions series leaderboard is the 128-rated Mostahdaf, the winner of the G1 Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot and the G1 Juddmonte International Stakes at York this season.

Sitting behind Mostahdaf on the leaderboard is Hukum in second place, Westover in third, Paddington in fourth and Triple Time in fifth.

Dark Horses to Watch Out For

Nashwa, who is currently seventh on the leaderboard, has had a terrific season, having won the G1 Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket, been second to Mostahdaf in the Juddmonte International, ahead of the favourite Paddington, and produced the fastest split of them all when running third in the G1 Irish Champion Stakes. She could well creep up the rankings after British Champions Day.

Qipco Champion Stakes – 21st October 2023

The Champion Stakes is the feature race of Champions Day, and can send the winner into real stardom as all runners have proved themselves worthy of greatness all season long. The winner of this race really can be said to be the best of the best. The race being held in October, though, can lead to much softer ground than in the summer months, throwing up some surprise results.

Three-year-old King Of Steel will have had a good break by the time of this race, and is versatile ground-wise having run well on soft ground in the past. If back to his very best, he could be the winner here.

Bay Bridge must also enter considerations having run to his credit on a variety of ground this year, and having unexpectedly won this race last year. He likes the track at Ascot, and his trainer – Sir Michael Stoute – has trained the winner of this race three times previously.

Aidan O’Brien’s Continuous must also be taken seriously, going on any ground and winning this year’s G1 St Leger, then going on to run a creditable fifth in the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.

Queen Elizabeth II Stakes – 21st October 2023

Despite winning only one of her six runs this season, Nashwa has put up some remarkable performances in defeat, holding her own against colts brilliantly. This will be her first run at Ascot, but the track ought to suit her and she can cope with some rain. She has already beaten the likes of Paddington, and should come here fresh enough to make her presence duly felt.

Paddington’s season has been unbelievable, with six consecutive wins against both his own age group and older horses. He had, perhaps, had one race too many when finishing an unexpected third in the Juddmonte International at York’s Ebor meeting, but has now had two months off and should be able to bounce back to his best.

Tahiyra – already a winner at Ascot – has been consistent this season and no matter what the conditions, has never being seen outside the first two home. Having now won the G1 Matron Stakes at Leopardstown against older horses, she should have a real chance here, but takes on colts for the first time.

Bet on Queen Elizabeth II Stakes 2023/2024 at William Hill

Qipco British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes – 21st October 2023

Harry and Roger Charlton’s Time Lock could be in with a chance here, having won the G3 Dubai Stakes at Newmarket by over four lengths. She will have to prove herself in this G1 company, but showed real ability in that race, and Ascot is a comparable track to Newmarket so ought to suit her.

Aidan O’Brien’s Jackie Oh, last seen running a very close second to Blue Rose Cen in the G1 Prix de l’Opera at Longchamp, should be high up in considerations, provided that she gets her preferred soft ground. She steps up in trip here, but that could be what she needs in order to get her head in front.

Ralph Beckett’s Bluestocking should also be considered, having finished a brilliant second to Savethelastdance in the G1 Irish Oaks at the Curragh in July. Going best on softer ground, which she is likely to get here, she could be a real player.

Bet on Qipco British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes 2023/2024 at William Hill

Qipco British Champions Sprint Stakes – 21st Oct 2023

Shaquille, who has had a fantastic season, rising 26 pounds in the handicap from four consecutive wins, goes on any ground and, despite disappointing on his last run at Haydock, that performance was too bad to be true so can be ruled out. He has had plenty of time off now and should be ready to strike here at a track he has done so well on in the past.

Mill Stream could be in contention having loved the softer ground in France, where he won both the Listed Prix Moonlight Cloud and G3 Prix de Meautry over this distance. Rarely seen outside the placings, this son of Gleneagles could be competitive.

Sandrine was most impressive when last seen winning the G2 Park Stakes at Doncaster and is a course and distance winner having won the G3 Albany Stakes at Ascot in 2021. Softer ground has seen some of her best performances, and she has held her own against colts on numerous occasions in the past, so must be respected.

1. A Complete Roulette Glossary
2. Live Roulette FAQ

A Complete Roulette Glossary

American Roulette: A variant of roulette that features a double zero (00). The double zero sits next to the single zero on the betting board. This means there are 38 numbers in play and puts the house edge to 5.26%.

Backtrack: The outer section of the roulette wheel where the ball spins.

Biased Numbers: A section of numbers that is said to hit more frequently than is statistically likely. Biased numbers can be caused by an uneven or otherwise faulty wheel. Unless there is a software glitch, you’re unlikely to see biased numbers at an online roulette table.

Biased Wheel: An unevenly worn or faulty roulette wheel. In live roulette games, a biased wheel could cause certain numbers to hit more often than they otherwise would as it’s not spinning in an even, random manner.

Black Bet: An outside bet in live and online roulette. When you bet on black, you’ll win a 1:1 (even money) return on your money if any black number hits.

Bottom Track: The slanted inner rim of the roulette wheel that remains static during a spin. When the ball slows down, it slides from the backtrack and onto the bottom track before falling into a numbered pocket.

Carre: The French term for a corner bet.

Cheval: The French term for a split bet in land-based, online and live roulette.

Colonne: The French term for a column bet in roulette.

Column Bet: Like dozen bets, column bets allow you to cover 12 numbers with a single chip. There are three columns to choose from, and the payout on winning bets is 2:1.

Combination Bet: In general, a combination bet can be made with one or more chips and will cover two or more numbers. An example of a combination bet is a dozen, which covers 12 numbers in one section of the table.

Corner Bet: A single bet that covers four connected numbers. To make a corner bet, you must place a chip in the middle of a square of four numbers. This means you’re selecting all four numbers in the square. The payout for a corner bet in live or online roulette is 8:1.

Dealer: The person in control of a game, also called a croupier. When you play roulette, the dealer will be present and actively control the game. When you play roulette online, the game will be controlled by a random number generator (RNG).

Dozen Bet: A single bet that covers 12 numbers in one section of the table. Dozen bets are split into three sections: 1st (numbers 1-12), 2nd (numbers 13-24) and 3rd (numbers 25-36). Zero isn’t included in a dozen bet. If any number in your dozen hits, the payout is 2:1.

Double Zero: In American Roulette, double zero (00) is the additional number on the wheel.

En Plein: The French term for a straight-up bet in online and live roulette.

En Prison: A rule common in French Roulette, en prison literally means “in prison”. This rule applies to even money bets and allows you to either take back half your stake when zero hits or leave it “imprisoned” for the next spin. You’re choosing to either get a 50% rebate on a losing bet or keep your stake for the next bet.

European Roulette: The most common form of online and live roulette in the majority of casinos. This game is the older cousin of American Roulette. The main difference between the two variants is that European Roulette doesn’t feature the double zero. Because of this, it has one less number in play than its American counterpart. In total, there are 37 numbers in European Roulette, with a maximum payout of 35:1. The house edge is 2.70%.

Even Money: This term refers to a 1:1 payout. In other words, you win the same amount that you staked. For example, if you stake €1 and win, your total return will be your €1 stake back + €1 profit.

Five-Number Bet: This is a single bet that allows you to cover five specific numbers: 00, 0, 1, 2 and 3. If you win with this bet, your return will be 6:1.

High Bet: This is an outside bet in live and online roulette. When you bet on “high”, you’ll cover all numbers between 19-36. If you win, the return is 1:1 (even money).

House Edge: This term refers to the advantage the house (casino) has in any given situation. The house edge in roulette is created by a difference in the odds of any bet winning and the payout you receive. For example, the payout for a straight-up bet is 35:1. However, in European Roulette, there are 37 numbers on the table. This discrepancy (37:1 vs. 35:1) is where the casino gets its advantage. 

Inside Bet: Any bet made within the inner section of the table is known as an inside bet. Inside bets can be straight up or a combination of splits.

La Partage: When you play French roulette online or live, La Partage is a special rule that allows you to receive 50% of your stake back on even money bets. When it applies, if you make an even-money bet and the ball lands on zero, you’ll get half of your money back. This is similar to the En Prison. However, you don’t have the option to let your bet ride on the next spin with La Partage.

Line Bet: Also known as a six-line bet, this option allows you to cover six numbers (two rows of three) with a single wager. To make this bet, you split both rows with a single chip. The chip must be placed at the nearside end of the rows. The payout on this bet is 5:1. 

Marker: In live roulette, a marker, also called a ‘dolly’, is a small implement used to mark the winning number. When the round is over, the dealer will place a marker on the winning number and clear away all losing bets from the roulette table before paying out the winners.

Neighbours: In roulette, neighbours are numbers found next to/near each other on the wheel. These have relevance to certain types of bets, such as Orphelins.

Orphans: A type of bet that allows you to cover the numbers 6, 34 and 17 with a single wager.

Orphelins: A French term that refers to the process of betting on neighbours (numbers that sit near each other on the wheel). By betting on “neighbour” numbers (i.e. orphelins), it allows you to cover groups of numbers with fewer bets.

Outside Bets: Any bet outside of the inner table. Outside bets offer lower returns than inside bets. In roulette, the inner board is any betting option contained without the main, rectangular betting area. The inner board is where the individual numbers sit. 

Pockets: These are the slots where the ball lands on a roulette wheel.

Random Number Generator (RNG): When you play roulette online, the outcome is determined by a computer program known as an RNG. An RNG uses mathematics to generate random results. This allows online casinos to offer games that are as fair as their live counterparts.

Red Bet: An outside bet in live and online roulette. When you bet on red, you’ll win a 1:1 (even money) return on your money if any red number hits.

Sixainne: The French term for a line bet.

Split: A bet that covers two adjacent numbers. The bet is known as a split because you’re literally splitting the chip by placing it on the line between the two numbers. The payout for a winning split bet in roulette is 17:1.

Straight Up: A bet on a single number is known as straight up. The payout on winning straight up bets in roulette is 35:1.

Street: Similar to a line bet, a street bet allows you to cover three numbers in a row with a single bet. To make a street bet, you need to place a chip on the nearside end of a row. The payout for a winning street bet in roulette is 11:1.

Tiers Du Cylindre: Another neighbours bet in French Roulette, tiers du cylindre covers a third of the wheel. This bet requires you to cover 12 numbers with split bets. To make it, you split the following pairs: 5-8, 10-11, 13-16, 23-24, 27-30, and 33-36. The payout on this bet is 17:1, as any win will be a split bet.

Transversale: The French term for a street bet.

Trio Bet: Another term for a street bet in live and online roulette.

Voisins du Zero: A neighbours bet that’s popular in French Roulette. Voisins du zero translates as “neighbours of zero” and sees you cover the 17 numbers that flank zero on the wheel. You have to cover all 17 numbers with nine bets. You do that in the following way:

• Two chips on the 0-2-3 trio
• One chip on the 4-7 split
• One chip on the 12-15 split
• One chip on the 18-2 split
• One chip on the 19-22 split
• Two chips on the 25-26-28-29 corner
• One chip on the 32-35 split

Zero: A number in the game of roulette. Zero is slightly different to other roulette numbers because it’s green. This means that it’s excluded from any outside bets. 

Roulette FAQ

How do live casino games work?

When you play live roulette or any other live casino game, you’re connected to a live game via a webcam. This allows you to see what’s going on at the table in real-time. In tandem with the live stream, RFID sensors on the table link to a computer program that allows you to place bets on the action via your desktop or mobile device.

What Are RFID Sensors?

These are small devices that record data in real-time. Each sensor records actions that take place on the table. These actions are then sent to a computer program so our system knows the result of each spin. This information is compared with the bets you made to determine whether you won the round or not.

Are Live Casino Games And Live Roulette Safe?

Yes. Live roulette and all live casino games are tightly controlled and regulated. In fact, every live roulette game you play online will be as fair as one in a brick-and-mortar casino. To ensure fairness and safety at all times, live roulette games have to be tested and monitored. These conditions form part of a company’s licensing duties. In other words, without proving a game is safe and fair, the company wouldn’t receive a gaming licence and, therefore, wouldn’t be able to offer products online.

Is There An RNG In Live Roulette Games?

No – with the only exception being Lightning Roulette. In this game, the location of the five numbers that are struck by lightning are controlled by a computer program called an RNG. This is very much similar to the process behind digital casino games such as online slots, blackjack and roulette, in the action is controlled by the game’s Random Number Generator. In this instance, the program does the job of a dealer and produces random results. In live roulette, however – bar Lightning Roulette, the dealer is solely responsible for controlling the wheel and, therefore, generating random results. 

How Can I See The Action?

All live roulette games online are broadcast to your screens via HD webcams. To ensure everyone has the best experience, you can adjust the quality of the stream to suit your connection. Additionally, many of the best live roulette games now feature multiple cameras so you can get different perspectives on the board and wheel.

What Types Of Live Roulette Are There?

As well as European, American and French roulette, live casino developers have created new variants in recent years. Games such as Lightning Roulette feature bonus options that allow you to potentially pick up enhanced payouts. As the popularity of live casino games grows, you’ll find more innovative offerings at LiveRoulette our Canadian online casino in the coming years.

The UK’s gaming arena has been growing at an unprecedented rate. Indeed, the statistics are irrefutable as the industry is registering colossal revenues and monumental triumphs. For instance, a report by Statista revealed that the industry’s revenue reached a whopping 8.16 billion USD in 2022! Tech innovations and consistent game releases have helped the industry become successful. In this regard, it is best to appreciate the role of British Gaming Studios as they are the unsung heroes fabricating the international sensations that everyone is raving about.

Do you recall powering up the ZX Spectrum? Well, those were the halcyon days. Hitherto, some avant-garde tech innovations have enabled British developers to unveil state-of-the-art games that have caused shockwaves globally. For instance, the development in the mobile tech industry has been beneficial to the developers. The availability of powerful smartphones and sophisticated graphics has enabled developers to offer more immersive gaming options.

Online casino gaming has also contributed to the growth of the industry, with a plethora of online casino platforms vying for supremacy in the UK. Fierce competition has pushed online casino operators to offer tantalizing enticements to attract new players and keep current ones engaged. You can access these perks using codes like the Magic Red Bonus Code which offers a perfect start to enhance your wagering experience. 

If you are intrigued by the influence of these ateliers on global blockbusters, then you should keep reading. The sections below explore their contributions further.

Mobile Gaming is a Game-Changer

Mobile tech has played a critical role in boosting the operations of British gaming studios. Numbers from the industry reveal that smartphone owners in the UK consume, on average, 24 hours on their smart devices weekly. Additionally, 60% of smartphone owners use their smartphones for gaming, which is around 20 million people.

However, unlike elsewhere globally, the majority of UK gamers, around 53%, own iPhones. It’s no wonder the UK has over 3,000 mobile game publishers that have released more than 10,000 games in the last 20 years. It is also important to note that 65% of these games are free-to-play.

British Gaming Studios and Global Blockbusters

As technology has advanced, making a blockbuster game has become more like making a blockbuster movie. The gaming industry has experienced some interesting developments because of this convergence. The Economist claims that more sophisticated games make better material for film adaptation, and today’s producers, who grew up with games, are keen. This has led to a focus on monetizing successful franchises, with game studios becoming more focused than film studios on this aspect.

Undoubtedly, the role of British game development studios in crafting global phenomena is immense. A prime example of this is Rockstar North, an establishment stationed in Edinburgh. The studio is responsible for the worldwide acclaim of the Grand Theft Auto series. This franchise hasn’t only garnered commercial triumph, but it has also left a considerable imprint on popular culture while establishing novel benchmarks for sandbox gaming.

Rare is another distinguished British entity recognized for ageless masterpieces like GoldenEye 007 and Banjo-Kazooie. In the same vein, Codemasters, another titan from Britain, has gained recognition for its exhilarating racing games, such as the Dirt and F1 series. The burgeoning of the United Kingdom’s gaming sector and the merging of gaming and film production methods indicate that this inclination is likely to persist in the times ahead.

Final Thoughts

The influence of British gaming studios on worldwide hits is noteworthy. Armed with a proficient workforce, robust government backing, and a history of technological breakthroughs, British gaming studios are poised to keep molding the global gaming landscape.

The expansion of the UK’s gaming sector and the merger of gaming and cinema production processes hint that this pattern is set to endure. As the gaming sector undergoes transformation, it will be thrilling to witness the novel innovations and blockbuster titles that will surface from British gaming studios in the forthcoming years.

Pocket52 Poker Sports League Season 5 – Bigger and Better Than Ever!

Posted by Laksh Pal Singh on 2023-08-23 at 9:41 PM

That was what the Poker Sports League management promised us this year, and that is exactly what was delivered. This edition of PSL was grand in many ways, and I’d first like to thank everyone who made this event possible.

Nitesh Salvi – founder and CEO of Pocket52, title sponsors of PSL, Pranav Bagai, Siddharth Mishra, and Prajit Gambhir, the three musketeers who started this wonderful concept of PSL and have worked endlessly over the last five years to grow this mind sport!

Prajit, you legend. God only knows how many roles you have at PSL! From being COO to the auctioneer to commentary to ensuring that the show goes on every single time, big shoutout to you, brother, and to Vidur also for making sure every pre-show and every stream was super smooth. Sid and his production team, wow, man, I don’t even know what to say. You guys are so good at what you do! This year the production team of PSL has really outdone themselves. From every reel to every Instagram story to every update, I have to say the content was fabulous.

Obviously couldn’t have done it without your ever-so-talented team! Dashank, Madhur, and Pandey Ji, big shoutout to the three of you for doing such a great job and just being awesome people in general. I’m really fond of the entire PSL team and of course the man himself, the mastermind Pranav Bagai for making this happen on Jio Cinema- working day in and day out to achieve his vision for poker in India.

I want to thank all the owners for supporting this league every single year and spreading their love and passion for poker. This league would not be possible without you!

The Experience

Pocket52 PSL Season 5 was something else only. Everyone together on land in the same resort under the same roof, with no hassle of going onto the ship, everyone bonding and interacting.

Personally, for me, the highlight was interacting with the qualifiers from all teams, it’s really nice to talk with someone when you know they look up to you and whatever you’re saying has an impact on them.

It was really heartwarming to meet the Massani brothers, these boys were the heroes of PSL, and that’s another story to tell. Taking a domestic flight for the first time, these two brothers have come from Bhopal and won all our hearts. What gems of human beings, so much confidence, so much energy, I just loved it, to be honest. I had a great time with all my friends and all the other captains who I’m so close to off the felts!

The competition was heavy, and everyone was so passionate and into it. So yeah, GG to my boys – Dirty (Dhaval Mudgal) and Shardul (Parthasarathi) for also taking podium finishes, I had already told Shardul I was going see him heads up and win this time.

Big shoutout to Gaurav Sood, one of the best poker players in India, for playing the finale like an absolute boss man and ensuring I’m shitting myself on the rails while he’s reducing the chip deficit. Love you, Mozzie unlucky one, and you’ll be back stronger we all know it.

Shoutout to Romit (Advani) and Vaibhav (Sharma) for being fantastic team leaders- you win some, you lose some, and I am sure we will see you guys in the top 3 next season!

Now coming to my team, oh man, I don’t think I’ve ever felt such a sense of comradery and team spirit in my life. PSL adrenaline just hits differently. I’ve played a lot of tournaments in my life and hit a lot of one-outers for big money, but I’ve never jumped the way PSL made me jump and shout and scream, and it’s a different kind of excitement altogether.

Bringing a team format and making an individual sport a team game is honestly a genius concept! I would like to thank my team owners, Mr Puneet Mehra, Mehul Shah, and Rishi, for trusting me to lead this team again despite a not-so-great performance the previous year. Special shoutout to their families as well, Toral ma’am Divyansh and Prerna, for cheering on the Mumbai team and making sure our rail was the loudest and full of energy. Really happy that Mehul and Rishi also came down and really felt it with the team and were involved and there from start to finish.

Speaking about my team, I want to say I’m so proud of you guys – every point earned by each of you was crucial to us winning and reaching the finale. I remember the day we reached Goa and had our first team meeting, I was really impressed with Puneet sir because he gave a really inspirational team talk on Day 1 itself, which had a big impact on our team. I have to say one thing about my team, though, everyone was really into it, The togetherness and team spirit was really evident, and I think from Day 1, we manifested the win when we took that picture near the trophy.

Humaara wildcard kaisa ho, Alok Birewar jaisa ho! I think the best decision I made this PSL, other than my obvious retentions of Akshay Nasa and Honey Bijlani, was to sign Alok as my wildcard. I knew Alok wouldn’t do it for the money; he wanted to play PSL, he loves strategizing, he was railing every table every tournament, his team spirit was unparalleled, and the best in the league, so kudos bro I’m proud of you, and you did a great job.

Akshay Nasa, my player, said I am born ready when I asked him if he was going to play the finale. Our strategy was simple, get 250 BB in the finale, send Nasa, and ship it!! Shoutout to Ankit, our 2nd pro, for a great performance joining Nasa in the finale, and also getting the ever so-crucial points in the live MTT, but also for declaring that we’ve won before the league even started.

Honey Bijjlani, for doing more work than the captain, bhai this team would not have won without you, I openly state that you are going to be retained every year for Mumbai Anchors. Nitin Gulati for his passion for this team, getting merchandise and hoodies made for the entire team, thank you, bhai! Simran Malhotra, my fellow Pocket52 team pro, for never disappointing me, for being the number 1 woman player of the league, and for her spirit and love for the team.

Dhirendra Kumar and Avinash Tauro for being on top of things, speaking to the new boys, railing watching the stream making notes, top top performance guys. And of course the new boys Shravan and Nikaas, who I couldn’t believe, played live poker for the first time. They both killed it and got super important points for the team. Every single point contributed by each of you was crucial to this team’s success.

It was a rollercoaster of three days, with ups and downs and highs and lows; the excitement and energy were high, and it was the best three days of my life. Humne bahut chipkaaya, 3 straight days chipkaaya, but you gotta spike to ship, and there was no way Mumbai was not winning this season. Also, a big shoutout to my first mentor and dear friend Sahil Mahboobani for top-notch performance and taking down the Player of the Series, so happy for you, bro!

Lifting that trophy was a great feeling and something that’ll stay with me for life, I hope to recreate many more memories with PSL and Mumbai Anchors!

GG everyone, until next time!

Summers in Las Vegas are notoriously hot. One of the best ways to cool off? Getting in the water! Pools, kayaks, lakes, and more have all become popular activities on the hottest days in Las Vegas. Whether you want to stay in the city at Las Vegas pools or are looking to take a road trip to some lakes and waterfalls, read on for your guide to making a splash in Las Vegas so you can cool down on your summer vacation to the city.

Circa Stadium Swim®

If you’re staying in the city, Stadium Swim is the spot for a stylish summer cool down. This rooftop poolscape is a stunner, boasting six pools on three different levels, all sitting in front of a massive 40-foot-tall LED screen playing the sporting events of the day. You can chill in one of the 370 chairs lined up around the pools, but for those who want to party in style with some space, there are options like lily pads, daybeds, and cabanas for reservation.

What makes this pool stand out is its unique concept, unlike anything else you’ll find in Las Vegas. It’s like a sportsbook, complete with stadium-style seating, but with the bonus of swimming pools to jump into when the heat or the game gets too intense. Stadium Swim is open every day, all year round. Even better, guests at Golden Gate Las Vegas get free access to Stadium Swim to make your summer even cooler.

In a nutshell, this spot is perfect for sports fans who want to soak in some poolside action and have a blast. It’s a lively party scene, so don’t expect to be too focused on the game all the time – just enjoy the fun vibes, great company, and stunning views of the Fremont Street Experience!

Lake Las Vegas

Located in Henderson, just 15 miles from the Las Vegas Strip, Lake Las Vegas is a hot destination for Las Vegas water sports! Embark on an elegant cruise aboard your very own private yacht, complete with a crew and two fully-stocked bars for your enjoyment. Guests also have the option to rent paddle boards or kayaks on an hourly basis. For those looking to stay dry, a selection of electric boats is available for leisurely cruises on the sparkling water.

Thrill-seekers will love the on-lake Aqua Park and pulse-pounding water jetpack experiences, a surefire way for an invigorating adventure. For those seeking a comprehensive day of entertainment, Lake Las Vegas offers various adventure packages that feature yacht cruises, delectable dining, an exhilarating helicopter tour of the Hoover Dam, and more.

Lake Mead

For an escape packed with natural beauty, head to Lake Mead, where the views are expansive and the waters are refreshing. When it comes to lakes near Las Vegas, Lake Mead is the local favorite. It’s perfect for those who like to participate in watersports like boating, water skiing, and tubing. There are tons of options for scenic hikes and nature walks around Lake Mead that will help you break up the water fun and see the beautiful landscape from a different perspective.

If you want something a little more relaxed, a cruise might be the perfect way for you to enjoy the area. You won’t be getting in the water, but you’ll still be able to enjoy being on the lake. The Lake Mead cruise is a Mississippi-style paddlewheeler that offers a climate-controlled environment, and even offers fun champagne brunch and sunset dinner cruises to make for a truly unique way to see the lake.
