Betcris prepares for participation in upcoming SAGSE Miami

The next installment of SAGSE (the South American Gaming Suppliers Expo) is almost here. Following the success of previous events, it returns to Miami, Florida, for three days next month. The gaming industry recognizes the importance of SAGSE events, which are held in different locations across the Americas. Global operator Betcris, a representative of Latin American gaming, is proud to be a Golden sponsor of the event, as well as to participate in a panel.
SAGSE Miami Powered by Play’n GO will be held on August 9, 10 and 11 at the Dania Beach Casino. It opens with a VIP Welcome Reception on August 9, and will feature a panel of high-profile experts will discuss the latest trends and challenges facing the international gambling industry.
Following a day of insightful panels and networking, registered participants can attend the Exclusive VIP Night – After Party Evening Beach Club Event at S3 Lounge on August 10. On the last day, additional Masterclass events and networking opportunities are available.
The most important gaming companies will be present in Miami. Among them will be senior executives from Betcris, including Director of New Business Fernando Garita. He will be joined by executive panelists from a number of high-level personnel from Pragmatic Play, GLI, Playtech and others.
According to Monografie, the organizer of SAGSE events and others, the event will feature executives and business leaders from all over the region. This will give operators and entrepreneurs from across South and Central America, as well as the Caribbean, the opportunity to network with representatives of companies from the US, Malta and others.
Over the years, SAGSE events have become popular events in the region. They have offered alternative gaming options that helped the sector evolve during the crisis. For this year’s event, Dania Beach Casino is an ideal place to hold a live event due to the popularity of health protocols and the availability of vaccines in Miami.
SAGSE provides a venue for participants to meet in a professional, safe and reliable environment. This allows them to interact with prominent figures in the Latin American gaming sector. Due to the event’s popularity, it has already reached its maximum capacity and there are no additional participation requests.
The fastest-growing gaming market is that of Latin America. It is outpacing both North America and Europe, which have begun to implement overly-taxing regulations that make it difficult for operators to participate. The market in Latin America is growing quickly and smoothly as countries across the region see it as a way to achieve economic recovery and stability that they have been unable to attain for decades.

MLB Players Sign Licensing Agreement with PENN Entertainment

MLB Players Inc., a commercial affiliate of the Major League Baseball Players Association, and OneTeam Partners announced they’ve reached a licensing agreement with PENN Entertainment.
The agreement designates PENN’s sports betting platforms – ESPN BET in the U.S. and theScore BET in Canada – as Officially Licensed Sportsbooks of MLBPI.
PENN now has the rights to use MLB player names, images and likenesses on its sports betting platforms, marketing assets and promotional campaigns.
The deal also includes PENN’s retail sportsbook operations (32 retail sportsbooks at its casino properties, including 19 under the ESPN BET brand).
Last fall, FanDuel and MLBPI reached a similar licensing agreement after the MLB players’ union sued FanDuel and Underdog Fantasy in New York Supreme Court, accusing them of using the names and likeness of ballplayers on their players without permission.
”As baseball season gets underway, we’re excited to offer fans an enhanced betting experience that includes player likenesses, expanded wagering options and a more dynamic product. Partnering with MLB Players Inc. strengthens our connection to the league and its star players and creates additional opportunities to engage fans throughout the season,” said Jason Birney, Vice President of Operations at PENN Interactive.
OneTeam Partners specializes in commercializing group licensing rights for professional athlates, and is a joint venture between the NFL Players Association, MLB Players Association, Women’s National Basketball Players Association, MLS Players Association, and U.S. Women’s National Team Players Association.
“By integrating MLB player rights into PENN Entertainment’s platforms, this partnership brings fans closer to the game while unlocking new business opportunities in sports betting. It highlights the growing influence of players in shaping premium, fan-focused betting experiences while enhancing player NIL rights and widening distribution,” said Frank Arthofer, President of OneTeam Partners.

Caesars Entertainment Debuts its First Live Dealer Studio Inside One of its Caesars Rewards Destinations

Caesars Entertainment Inc. announced the launch of its first branded, live dealer studio inside one of its world-class destinations made possible through its partnership with Evolution. The debut of the space inside Tropicana Atlantic City in New Jersey marks the second custom studio made for Caesars live dealer offerings on its online casino platforms following the launch of its first such studio in Pennsylvania earlier this year.
Players 21 and older on Caesars’ online gaming platforms Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino can now enjoy a live dealer experience on mobile that draws inspiration from table game play at the Las Vegas Strip’s most iconic casino, Caesars Palace.
“The opening of this branded studio at one of our Caesars Rewards destinations introduces the newest addition to our ever-expanding online gaming platforms. We’re always striving to marry the world-class experiences our players enjoy at our destinations with the online casino play they love,” said Matt Sunderland, Senior Vice President and Chief iGaming Officer at Caesars Digital.
The New Jersey studio features five blackjack tables, which includes a VIP-exclusive blackjack table, one baccarat table and one roulette table. The tables feature custom felts with imagery and branding from iconic Caesars destinations on the Las Vegas Strip including Caesars Palace & Horseshoe. The studio also caters to VIP players, much like Caesars Rewards destinations, with a VIP-exclusive blackjack table offering an authentic 1-to-1 live high-limit blackjack experience, that could previously only be found in a physical casino.
“Evolution is thrilled to open a second dedicated Caesars live dealer studio inside Tropicana Atlantic City. This studio was made possible through our close partnership with Caesars. Once fully operational, it will generate approximately two hundred job opportunities in Atlantic City. We’re very proud to see a concrete example of how iGaming helps to create jobs and develop the workforce in our local communities,” said Jacob Claesson, Chief Executive Officer of Evolution North America.
Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino are available on iOS, Android, and desktop for those 21 and older in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ontario, and West Virginia. Each platform offers a dynamic online casino experience with a range of unique Caesarsbranded games alongside hundreds of classic land-based casino favorites and core casino game mechanics, including high limit slots, private live dealer tables, linked progressive jackpots, variations of poker and roulette, and more.
