(AsiaGameHub) -   State legislators have defeated the measure with a vote of 27 to 21. US.- The Oklahoma Senate has voted down House Bill 1047, legislation aimed at legalizing sports betting. The proposal was rejected by a margin of 27-21. Drafted by Representative Ken Luttrell and Senator Bill Coleman, HB 1047 sought to grant tribes the authority to offer both retail and mobile sports wagering, building upon the State-Tribal Gaming Act of 2004 that provides tribes exclusive gaming rights. The bill had previously passed in the House of Representatives. Coleman pointed to the growth of prediction markets as a rationale for the bill, arguing it would “not establish a new form of gambling.” “Sports betting is already happening legally, but it's unregulated and the state receives no benefit. This legislation offers a regulated option with operators dedicated to addressing problem gambling,” he stated. Those against the bill expressed a desire to avoid fueling gambling addiction related to sports betting. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   The licensees did not report changes to their boards or management. Sweden.- The Swedish Gambling Authority, Spelinspektionen, has announced it is now checking that licensees providing gambling for public benefit correctly declare changes to their boards and/or management as mandated by the rules. Under Chapter 4, Section 11 of Sweden's Gambling Act, any changes to the board and/or management must be notified to the Swedish Gambling Authority within a 14-day period. A recent review of 17 licensees, however, revealed that 16 had neglected to report these changes at least once. The 16 organizations that did not comply with the reporting obligations were given warnings or remarks in addition to fines. The cases have been concluded for all but one of these entities. Among those receiving warnings were Karlholms GoIF, Brunflo Sports Association, Lesjöfors Sports Association, Lidköpings Football Club, the Motorists’ Sobriety Association, and Ulvåker IF. The Swedish regulator has recently intensified its enforcement efforts. Although actions in recent years have primarily concentrated on online gambling, especially pursuing unlicensed operators, these recent measures indicate the regulator's intention to ensure that smaller operators, including charitable gaming licensees, follow the regulations. It also recently issued a warning to the Swedish Bingo Association concerning insufficient information at two locations: Idrottens Bingo in Linköping and Bingoringen in Karlskoga. Physical inspections found that the required contact details and information about beneficiaries were not being displayed. In a separate development, the operator ATG has indicated that, based on its own recent estimates, headway is being achieved in the fight against unlicensed gambling in Sweden.

(AsiaGameHub) -   The company reported a decline in its first-quarter results but is aiming to reverse this trend. France.- Following a drop in first-quarter revenue, gambling leader FDJ United is looking to the UK and the Netherlands as crucial markets for recovery. For the quarter ending March 31, gross gaming revenue (GGR) increased 1 per cent year-on-year to €2.18bn, but earnings fell 3 per cent to €895m, impacted by a €24m tax charge. GGR for the online betting and gaming unit, which includes the operations from its Kindred acquisition, declined 1 per cent to €342m, with earnings down 8 per cent to €213m. This was primarily attributed to a further increase in the Dutch gambling tax effective from January. The recent rise in the UK's remote gaming tax is expected to present an additional challenge. French lottery and retail sports betting maintained a steady GGR of €1.74bn, yet profit decreased by 2 per cent to €627m following an additional €15m tax burden. The firm also pointed to short-term influences such as less appealing sports events and a high payout rate in retail betting. Revenue from French points of sale fell 3 per cent to €546m, whereas online lottery revenue grew 1 per cent to €81m. Newly appointed CFO Dan Lévy, who joined from Ipsos, stated that his team is “fully committed” to improving results in the UK and Dutch markets. Lévy assumed the finance leadership role after Pascal Chaffard transitioned from CFO to head the online division last month, following the exit of Kindred CEO Nils Andén. FDJ continues to anticipate a full-year GGR increase for 2026, but predicts a modest profit dip. The recurring EBITDA margin is now forecast at 23–24 per cent, slightly under the previous goal of 24.5 per cent. CEO Stéphane Pallez commented: “In a climate still influenced by tax hikes and stricter gaming regulations, the group is intensifying its focus on operational efficiency, synergies and financial discipline, targeting a return to sustainable, value-generating growth from the latter half of the year.” This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   The MGCB has revealed a partnership with Gamban. US.- The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has entered into an agreement to provide Michigan residents with complimentary access to Gamban, a software designed to block gambling sites. Gamban restricts access to all online gambling platforms, including social casinos, cryptocurrency-based betting, and NFT wagering, extending its reach beyond licensed operators to encompass unregulated and illicit websites. State residents are eligible to receive a free license, with durations available between one and five years. While enrollment in a self-exclusion program is not mandatory, individuals already registered on the Disassociated Persons List or the Responsible Gaming Database are particularly urged to utilize this extra layer of security. Henry Williams, executive director of the MGCB, stated: “Michigan is dedicated to guaranteeing that the growth of regulated gaming is accompanied by the most robust protections for our citizens. Our collaboration with Gamban provides a proven, free resource for anyone seeking to block online gambling access immediately across all their personal devices.” Matt Zarb-Cousin, director of external affairs at Gamban, added: “We are pleased to work with the Michigan Gaming Control Board to offer Gamban at no cost, removing financial barriers for those who need it. When an individual begins their journey to stop gambling, the Gamban app will inform them of all available state resources while simultaneously blocking gambling applications and websites in the background. This strategy has successfully increased abstinence and recovery levels in other regions.” In March, the MGCB unveiled a revamped website in honor of Problem Gambling Awareness Month. The updated Don’t Regret the Bet portal includes enhanced support resources, educational materials, and additional tools. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   Kane Purdy has taken over as the non-executive chair of the British gambling industry's trade body, succeeding Michael Dugher. UK.- The board of the Betting and Gaming Council (BGC), the UK's gambling trade body, has appointed Kane Purdy as its new non-executive chair, effective immediately. He succeeds Michael Dugher, who departed the role in January after serving for just under two years. Kane Purdy. Photo: BGC Purdy currently serves as Managing Director at Gamesys Operations Limited, which is now part of Bally’s Intralot. He brings 20 years of experience within the betting and gaming sector. The BGC emphasized his contributions to fostering industry collaboration, notably his role as Chair of GamProtect, an initiative focused on a single customer view aimed at improving player protection and elevating industry standards. The BGC represents more than 90 per cent of the British gambling industry, encompassing betting shops, online betting and gaming operations, bingo halls, and casinos. The position of chair will now be filled on a rotational basis by BGC members, with each term lasting for 12 months. Grainne Hurst, Chief Executive Officer of the Betting and Gaming Council, stated: “Kane brings a wealth of experience, expertise, and talent to this role, accumulated over two decades in the industry. “He is a highly respected leader with a profound understanding of both the opportunities and the responsibilities inherent in operating within a regulated environment. He has also demonstrated a strong commitment to collaboration, playing a key role in advancing initiatives that enhance standards and protections across the sector. “I eagerly anticipate working closely with him as we continue to advocate for our members, elevate standards, and support a well-regulated industry that benefits customers, the economy, and communities nationwide.” Dugher, a former Labour MP for Barnsley East, held leadership positions at the BGC for six years and chaired the organization during the significant and protracted review of the 2005 Gambling Act. However, the sector continues to face challenges, and Purdy assumes the chairmanship at a time when the relationship between the gambling industry and other stakeholders remains strained. The BGC has voiced criticism regarding the recent increase in remote gaming tax, which took effect this month, and is also opposing the potential introduction of mandatory financial risk assessments for customers. Purdy commented: “I am honored and delighted to accept the position of Chair of the Betting and Gaming Council. “With 20 years in the industry, I recognize the importance of collective effort in addressing challenges, improving standards, and ensuring the continued success of the regulated sector. “I look forward to collaborating with Grainne and the team, as well as with members from across the industry, to build upon the substantial progress already achieved and to help shape the future direction of the BGC.” This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   The UK government is under mounting pressure to overhaul its gambling advertising laws, as legislators and advocacy groups call for new restrictions that would significantly lower the industry's profile. A joint report by the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Gambling Reform and Peers for Gambling Reform (PGR) contends that existing protections have become obsolete. The APPG Suggests Significant Changes The report points out that the modern media environment frequently blurs the lines between entertainment and advertising, a trend that may be particularly damaging to minors. Furthermore, the ubiquity of gambling promotions on television, social platforms, sports arenas, and public transport makes them nearly impossible to avoid. While various organizations have proposed different solutions, the APPG’s recommendations are notably more stringent than anticipated. The APPG has repeatedly emphasized the connection between the promotion of gambling and the harm it causes. APPG report One of the most striking proposals is a total prohibition of gambling commercials before 9 pm. This restriction would apply to radio, television, and digital outlets. If adopted, this would mark a major shift from current rules, which permit such advertisements during the day and early evening under specific circumstances. The report also scrutinizes sports sponsorships, suggesting an end to gambling branding in most athletic contexts, including stadium signage and kit logos. This would have a major impact on competitions like the EFL Championship, where many teams depend on gambling partnerships to maintain their finances. While campaigners believe the link between sports and betting normalizes gambling for children, opponents argue that such a move would strip clubs of essential income. Digital marketing is another area of concern. Legislators are increasingly worried about content creators and influencers promoting betting services. The report recommends a complete ban on these endorsements, along with more rigorous oversight of algorithm-based advertising that targets individuals based on their interests and online habits. There are also proposals to prohibit gambling-themed content in video games intended for those under 18. The Ongoing Challenge of Unregulated Operators The APPG’s recommendations also target fundamental elements of the gambling business model. It identifies incentives like bonus spins, free bets, and enhanced odds as high-risk because they trigger impulsive betting. Consequently, the APPG suggests banning these promotions and placing marketing limits on high-risk activities like online slots. The report highlights that unlicensed operators continue to be a major threat to British consumers. These platforms often lack basic safety features and gain traction through sponsorships and social media. The APPG calls for enhanced collaboration between government agencies, tech platforms, and regulators to reduce the visibility of illegal gambling. A measured strategy is required to combat illegal activity without ignoring the fundamental problems within the regulated sector. APPG report The APPG’s bold proposals are not without critics. Industry spokespeople argue that existing laws are adequate if they are strictly followed. They caution that heavy-handed restrictions will push consumers toward unregulated markets that pay no taxes and offer no protection. However, the current climate of the debate indicates that momentum is growing for reform as public health concerns intensify. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   The Michigan Lottery has revealed two individuals who won $500,000 prizes from its instant games. The winners are a man from Detroit and a resident of Saginaw County. TikTok Inspiration Turned Into a $500,000 Payday On April 22, the Michigan Lottery announced the first winner, confirming Grosjieon Moore as the recipient of a $500,000 prize. The 63-year-old secured the substantial sum from the lottery's $500,000 Bonus Scratch Multiplier instant game. Speaking to lottery officials, Moore explained he was motivated to play after seeing TikTok videos of people winning big on scratch-off tickets. This prompted him to begin purchasing tickets with his partner. A few days later, while my wife and I were scratching tickets, she shouted, 'We got a winner!' She believed we had won $50,000, but upon closer inspection, I realized we had actually won $500,000. It was incredible! Grosjieon Moore After claiming his prize, Moore stated his intention is to save the money. The winning ticket was purchased at the New Quick Stop Market, situated at 8059 West Grand River Avenue in Detroit. This prize is the maximum available in the game. When the $500,000 Bonus Scratch Multiplier launched, it included three top prizes. Currently, two of those top prizes are still unclaimed. Man’s Birthday Coincided with Easter Party, Resulting in а $500,000 Miracle A second winner was announced on April 23, identified as a man from Saginaw County. According to the Michigan Lottery, he won $500,000 from the Money Rush instant game. The 66-year-old winner chose to stay anonymous but discussed his good fortune with lottery representatives. He mentioned that his sister gave him the lucky ticket as a birthday present. This year, my family's Easter gathering fell on my birthday. During the party, my sister handed me a lottery ticket as a gift. On my drive home, I stopped at a store, scratched off the barcode, and scanned the ticket. I received an instruction to file a claim at the Lottery office, so I fully scratched the ticket at home to discover my prize. Lottery winner’s statement The man described feeling "shocked and excited" upon seeing the astonishing $500,000 win. He promptly called his sister to tell her the news. He also noted that he plans to put the winnings toward his retirement savings. The Michigan Lottery confirmed the winning ticket was sold at the Kroger store located at 435 North Main Street in Frankenmuth. Initially, the $5 Money Rush game offered three top prizes of $500,000. The Saginaw County man claimed the first, meaning two top prizes are still available. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   Maison DesChamps, the first individual to scale the outside of the Las Vegas Sphere in February 2024 and cause over $100,000 in damages, received a sentence Monday of 45 days in the Clark County Detention Center. DesChamps Sentenced for Climbing the Sphere Presiding Judge Danielle Pieper also handed down a one-year probation term and mandated that DesChamps pay $77,270.32 in restitution to Sphere Entertainment. The structure's LED pixels were not designed to bear the weight of a person climbing on them. A resident of Las Vegas, DesChamps has prior arrests for scaling the Aria Resort & Casino in August 2021, the Salesforce Tower in San Francisco in May 2022, and the Chase Tower in Phoenix in February 2023. The charges related to the Aria were dropped by Clark County prosecutors, and no convictions are documented for the other incidents. During the court proceedings, Jay Cline, vice president of event production for Sphere Entertainment, explained the company's damage assessment process. He stated that security footage, recordings from exterior cameras, and publicly accessible drone video were reviewed to map DesChamps' path. Inspections of the damaged sections were subsequently conducted using rope-access teams and drones. Cline stated the final repair bill amounted to $107,686.32, covering the replacement of 280 LED pucks at $150 each, two metal LED carriers, wiring, and labor for the rope teams. The defense countered that a portion of the damage might have been caused by elements like wind, bird strikes, or other unrelated events. In an unusual turn of events, DesChamps' sentencing occurred shortly after renowned climber Alex Honnold legally ascended the Sphere for a forthcoming movie titled From the Edge. Here Are More Details About the Climb DesChamps carried out his climb on February 7, 2024, announcing on social media that his goal was to promote the pro-life nonprofit Let Them Live. The effort focused on assisting a homeless woman named Isabel in canceling an abortion appointment via the elaborate fundraising stunt. The 24-year-old Las Vegas native broadcast his ascent live, encouraging donations by explaining that “she is homeless, pregnant, and needs help.” Ultimately, the stunt proved effective, raising close to $48,000 for Isabel through the organization. On the fundraiser page, DesChamps wrote that their objective was dual: to give Isabel the immediate, practical support she required and to create a supportive community for her based on hope and action. He further noted that the climb was symbolic, representing the daily difficulties Isabel encounters. In unrelated news concerning the Las Vegas Sphere, the venue's parent company announced plans several months ago for a second Sphere to be built at the National Harbor in Maryland.

(AsiaGameHub) -   Churchill Downs Incorporated (CDI) has released its first-quarter financial results, showing modest gains overall. The firm achieved a record high in net revenue, demonstrating its robust market standing. CDI Begins the Year on a High Note For the quarter ending March 31, 2026, Churchill Downs recorded net revenue of $663 million, a 3% rise from the previous year. This amount establishes a new benchmark for quarterly revenue, underscoring a solid beginning to the fiscal year. Concurrently, net income attributable to CDI totaled $83 million, an 8% increase year-over-year. This growth was driven by a $3 million after-tax reduction in other charges and recoveries, though it was somewhat countered by a $2 million after-tax rise in transaction, pre-opening, and additional costs. During Q1, the company's adjusted EBITDA stood at $257 million, reflecting a 5% year-over-year growth. This metric also reached an unprecedented high for a single quarter. CDI provided a detailed breakdown of its business segments, noting that the Live and Historical Racing unit generated revenue of $301 million and adjusted EBITDA of $113 million in Q1. This compares to revenue and adjusted EBITDA of $277 million and $102 million, respectively, during the same period last year. Meanwhile, the Wagering Services and Solutions segment posted revenue of $118 million and adjusted EBITDA of $45 million , up from revenue of $116 million and adjusted EBITDA of $41 million in the first quarter of 2025. The Gaming division saw a minor downturn in Q1 2026, with revenue and adjusted EBITDA falling to $262 million and $123 million, respectively. In contrast, the Gaming segment reported revenue of $267 million and adjusted EBITDA of $124 million in the previous year's quarter. Lastly, the All Other category recorded revenue of $2 million, matching the figures from Q1 2025. However, the segment's adjusted EBITDA dipped slightly, resulting in a loss of $24 million. Steady Growth Remains a Focus for the Company Early in 2026, the firm distributed a dividend of $0.438 per share, representing the 15th straight year of dividend growth. Notable highlights from Q1 included the disclosure of a $180-200 million investment into the Rockingham Grand Casino in Salem, New Hampshire, with opening slated for next year. Additionally, CDI launched its Marshall Yards Racing & Gaming facility in Southwestern Kentucky this past February. CDI reported closing Q1 2026 with a net bank leverage ratio of 3.8x and returned $31 million in capital to shareholders through dividend payments. Following the conclusion of the quarter, CDI announced an $85 million deal to acquire the Preakness Stakes and Black-Eyed Susan Stakes. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) -   While the Powerball jackpot has gone unclaimed, the game’s secondary rewards have been more fruitful, with another participant securing a million-dollar payout. Players will have another opportunity to win the nine-figure jackpot in the upcoming Saturday drawing. Michigan Lottery Player Secures Seven-Figure Win During the April 22 drawing, participants vied for a $100 million Powerball jackpot. To claim the grand prize—available as an annuity for the total amount or a lump sum of $45.8 million—players needed to match all five white numbers and the red Powerball. Although no one achieved this feat, multiple players came close and secured smaller winnings. The winning numbers selected for the Wednesday jackpot were 24, 29, 32, 49, and 63, while the red Powerball was 11. Additionally, the Power Play multiplier for this draw was 2x. As noted, a Match 5 prize was awarded to a player who correctly selected all five white numbers but missed the Powerball. Consequently, a ticket holder from Michigan won $1 million. Furthermore, four participants matched four white numbers along with the red Powerball to claim the game’s third-tier prize. Three of these winners took home $50,000, while the fourth player won $100,000 thanks to the Power Play feature. The Powerball jackpot has now rolled over to $118 million, featuring a cash option of $53.9 million for the Saturday, April 25 drawing. Should the top prize remain unclaimed, players will have another opportunity to win on Monday. Powerball Keeps Creating New Millionaires Earlier, a Missouri player secured a $1 million Match 5 prize during the April 20 drawing. Additionally, five Power Play players took $150,000 each, aided by a 3x multiplier. Conversely, the drawing held last Saturday saw Match 5 prizes awarded to two distinct individuals. As neither had activated the Power Play option, both winners will take home $1 million. The last time the Powerball jackpot was hit was in early April, when a Delaware ticket holder claimed a $231 million prize. This article is provided by a third-party.
