SCCG Management and SMS Hospitality bring Gamerwager Licensed Peer to Peer Console Esports Wagering to the US

Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management, announces a partnership with Seth Schorr and his group of companies, to bring Gamerwager’s UK licensed, peer to peer console esports wagering platform, to the US.
Stephen Crystal said of the new partnership, “Joining forces with Seth Schorr has greatly enhanced our ability to access the growing esports wagering market with licensed peer to peer wagering platform, Gamerwager. The ability to provide casual gamers an easy to access platform for their favorite titles is essential to bringing broad consumer awareness to the esports wagering market.”
Gamer Wager developed the first Peer to Peer video game wagering platform approved by the UK Gambling Commission. The platform has been successfully launched in both the Play and App Stores, respectively, for the UK. The platform allows like-minded gamers to connect and wager with one another in a licensed and compliant environment. With a diverse portfolio of P2P esports betting markets under development, including daily tournaments, they aim to become the go-to P2P video game wagering platform worldwide. The world’s first fully licensed peer to peer video game betting platform on PS5 and XBOX consoles for popular US titles like Fortnite, Rocket League and Madden NFL. With the global esports betting market projected to exceed 205B USD by 2027, Gamer Wager is well positioned to claim its share of the esports opportunity.
Said Seth Schorr on the event, “For over seven years I have been an advocate of esports betting in Nevada and have collaborated with numerous players in the Peer to Peer wagering space. It was refreshing to find an operator that understands the regulatory requirements and has gambling in their DNA. Esports and gaming culture has never been more relevant to the casino industry and I am confident Gamer Wager will fill the void and offer casino customers the regulated Peer to Peer offering that is desired.”
Mark Goddard of CEO of Gamerwager said, “We are pleased to be partnering with Stephen Crystal and Seth Schorr on this incredible venture – a literal dream team for US esports gaming. We aim to connect millions of passionate gamers, in regulated markets, from around the world.”

Esportes da Sorte celebrates Brazilian culture with Parintins and SĂŁo JoĂŁo Sponsorships

Esportes Gaming Brasil, the owner of Onabet and Esportes da Sorte, is making its debut at the 58th Parintins Folklore Festival with an interactive project that blends cultural promotion, economic development, and social responsibility.
The brand becomes the first regulated betting operator to offer institutional support to the event, which welcomes around 120,000 visitors and generates BRL 184 million in local economic activity, according to the Amazonas State Government.
This cultural commitment comes on the back of Esportes Gaming Brasil sponsoring 31 SĂŁo JoĂŁo festivals during June in 27 cities across the Northeast and Southeast regions. This initiative strengthens the brand’s strategy of connecting with the public through the appreciation of Brazilian cultural expressions.
Esportes da Sorteâs focus was creating memorable experiences as each event featured scenography by Pernambucan artist Perron Ramos. Another notable element was the Vila Junina (June Village), a themed area blending traditional elements with interactive experiences. Classic games such as Pescaria da Sorte (Fishing of Fortune), Barraca do Beijo (Kissing Booth), and Argola da Sorte (Ring Toss) bring nostalgia to the festivities.
For the three-day Parintins Folklore Festival starting today, the brand will be energising Parintins with a series of experiences celebrating local culture. These include a panoramic lounge with a special view of the BumbĂłdromo, the Truck da Sorte â a space combining karaoke and free hydration â as well as a Social Arena installed in the Garantido and Caprichoso neighborhoods, featuring artistic performances, rest areas, free water distribution, and Instagram-worthy spots. Festivalgoers will also be able to get their hands on custom giveaways throughout the festival. All elements of the visual project are inspired by Amazonian art. The graphics feature illustrations by Curumiz, a Parintins-based duo formed by Alziney Pereira and Kemerson Freitas.
Sofia Aldin, CMO of Esportes Gaming Brasil, the group behind the brand commented:Â âEsportes Gaming Brasil cares passionately about regional values and strengthening Brazilian popular culture. Itâs more than simply showcasing our brand, we want to create value for the people who live for events like the Parintins Folklore Festival and the SĂŁo JoĂŁo festivals. Being part of these events backs our strategy of supporting traditions that drive local economies and celebrate regional identities.â
