Betsafe Canada Announces Their Mechanical Slot Machine Restoration Project

The Emerging Markets team behind Betsafe Canada, the Canadian online casino, today announced their slot restoration project. The idea behind the series of blog articles and YouTube videos is to find mechanical slot machines from the past 100 years that are losing their battle against time, after which the team plans to restore them to their former beauty.
For their first project in line, the team behind Betsafe Canada went with a 70-year-old three-reeled Beromat “B” slot machine, a series well known for its magneto-mechanical hand and an interior that required zero assistance from a plug in the wall.
A slot machine series started by Wulff Apparatebau GmbH back in 1950, this specific model was part of the golden age of casinos in Europe, where an electricity outage couldn’t win over the game; a few coins and a firm pull was all that was needed for the device to work. Back in the day, mechanical slot machines like the Beromat ‘B’ were the star of the show in various cafes, restaurants, and even homes, which made tracking down this particular model a ‘reel’ worthwhile adventure.
“What amazes me about these mechanical machines isn’t only the craftsmanship that went into them, but also the fact that they do not require any electricity to work. Just take a look at the disassembly; it’s fascinating how simple yet effective the whole machine was built,” comments Mattia B., Head of Marketing for Emerging Markets.
The first step in the restoration project was to acquire the machine from the far corners of central Europe and transfer the 60-pound device to the Emerging Markets studio. For full details of the team’s adventure, visit their blog post: 70-year-old Mechanical Slot Machine.
The second step was to disassemble the machine and asses the current status of all the inner parts, which proved the biggest challenge so far. Over 15 different elements were combined into one single infographic.
The third and final step is planned for end of May 2021, when the external housing as well as the internal parts will be completely restored, with the hardest step being the replacement of the broken three-wheeled reel mechanism that due to its age can’t be ordered new but needs to be revamped completely.

User-Centric Redesign for Casinosfiables.ca

Casinosfiables announced that they have redesigned their existing site – https://casinosfiables.ca/ to better address current user demands.
Although the siteâs functionality aligns with modern industry standards, the redesign is a step in the right direction and could very well give a competitive edge.
The changes addressed certain functionality concerns and aligned with ever-changing user preferences and behavior.
⢠Seamless page transition – The overall performance of the site improved, so pages loaded faster, despite the addition of new elements.
⢠Integrated social media buttons – Buttons that lead to social media pages became more visible, so it is easier for readers to complete engagement incentives that granted them affiliate-exclusive rewards or promo codes.
⢠More valuable insights – Previously, charts and ratings were only explained in separate reviews. The new roundup charts and ratings had a dropdown feature that provided more insights or clarity behind the rating.
⢠Relevant search filters – Some trends or categories that targeted user intent werenât visible in the previous version. The updated version introduced new categories that better reflected player preferences, or included roundups based on casino features (e.g., cashback, no wager promos, game providers) that werenât at the forefront previously.
⢠Author pages – Readers who had similar opinions and game preferences to the siteâs authors gained the ability to find other texts from those authors. Each casino expert received a dedicated page listing all of their publications.
The changes were finalized over the past few months. The team pushed these updates in batches rather than a single big update.

Vancouver Resident Purchased Winning $40 Million Lotto Max Ticket While Quenching Sparkling Water Craving

Phuc Duc (Daniel) Chau loves the Bubly brand of sparkling water and stopped in a convenience store to purchase a can. Chau likes to buy lottery tickets based on a gut feeling, and due to the employeeâs bubbly nature while he purchased his Bubly, Chau also purchased a Lotto Max ticket for the May 23, 2025 draw. Â
It was this ticket that ended up scoring Chau a whopping $40-million jackpot. Â
âI was at work when I found out,â recalled Chau of the moment he realized he won. âI was going through my bag to find a cough drop, but I saw that I had two lottery tickets in my bag and decided to scan the tickets, but I needed to update the [BCLC Lotto!] app first. The first ticket I didnât win anything, but the second said $40 million. I have never seen that many zeroes in my life, ever. I dropped my phone and then called BCLC right away!âÂ
At the time of the prize claim, the Vancouver resident hadnât yet shared the news of his win. Â
âMy partner doesnât know yet! I want to share the news with them in a special way.â Â
Chau shared that his dream has always been to travel the world. âThere are so many places I want to go to, so I havenât fully decided!âÂ
When asked if he will quit his job, he said, âI havenât decided, but I want to continue to support my community in a different way.âÂ
On how it feels to be a multimillionaire? Â
âIt means a lot to me. It opens up an opportunity for me to give back to my family, community and the world all around me. Itâs not meaningful unless you can share this with those who need it.â Â
Chau purchased the winning ticket at the 7-Eleven on Imperial Street and Boundary Road in Burnaby. Â
So far in 2025, B.C. lottery players have redeemed more than $146 million from Lotto Max. Lotto Max is a nationwide lottery game drawn on Tuesdays and Fridays after 7:30 p.m. (PST). Â
Players can purchase tickets at lottery retailers or at PlayNow.com. Winning numbers and group release forms can be found online at www.bclc.com. Players can check their lottery tickets anytime, anywhere on iOS and Android devices.Â
