Two hot new slots titles have been added to the range at Crazy Vegas Casino. Rugby Star has been perfectly timed for the Rugby World Cup which starts in September, while Lucky Zodiac features star signs for players seeking good fortune. Rugby Star Rugby Star has the 243 Ways To Win system that is common to many Microgaming slots and does away with traditional paylines. Instead, winning combinations come from getting three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels, so players get lots of prize payouts. Symbols include lots of images of Rugby players in action, boots, a ball, plus a trophy, headgear and Wild symbols that can expand across a reel, while a Scatter symbol will trigger from 15 up to 25 free spins. A Rolling Reels feature sees symbols exploding, leaving spaces for new ones to drop down into, potentially creating another winning combination. The maximum prize in this game is 120,000 coins, and it's sure to become just as popular as the similar Football Star and Cricket Star slots form the same developer. Lucky Zodiac Lucky Zodiac has a distinctive Asian theme, with images of astrological signs, fireworks, vases and a Wild symbol. A richly rewarding free spins round sees additional Wilds added to the reels, plus win multipliers of up to 7x the basic amount. Players get to pick a lucky sign of the zodiac before the free games commence, and the appearance of their sign boosts the value of any corresponding win. With a Gamble feature that can double or quadruple prizes from the base game and a popular theme, players can enjoy this game from 9th September. Crazy Vegas Casino representative Harry Von Schlussel says of the new games ''It is truly exciting for us to introduce these two games to our already impressive line up of games available at our casino.'' He added ''These games offer the best in terms of bonuses and game play and we look forward to receiving positive feedback.''

Rafael Nadal is better known for his performance on clay but with injuries keeping him away from the court for many months, he struggled to find his rhythm. Nadal now has the chance of winning another major trophy, this time on US soil but in order to make it this far he needs to overcome a familiar opponent. Fabio Fognini took advantage of his health issues this year and won twice in 2015, before losing by a narrow margin in Hamburg. Straight Set Victories for Nadal and Fognini The two players advanced with relative ease in the second round after winning their matches in three sets, but Rafael had a harder time against Schwartzman. The Argentinean had the chance to push the match into a fourth set and had a break advance, but couldn’t handle the pressure. The fact that he pushed his opponent to two tie breaks says a great deal about Nadal’s difficulties in returning powerful serves. This is what Fognini is all about and when the Italian comes out firing on all cylinders, he has the potential of throwing better opponents off-balance. The underdog status also plays to his advantage as he isn’t under pressure despite the fact that he plays in a Grand Slam tournament. Narrow Margin Victories in Recent Games Bookmakers overwhelmingly favor Nadal and Bet365 Sports offers odds that are tempting for those who are not that quick to dismiss the Italian. Fognini is not going to go down without a fight and even though he starts with the second chance, he should be capable of covering the +5.5 games spread. A three-set victory is not impossible but most unlikely and in order for this bet to be a winner, Fognini only needs to prevail in one set. Tennis fans are in for a treat, as these two players have a reputation of producing breathtaking matched when they square off.

A leading international digital gaming provider is hitting the bright lights of Atlantic City. NetEnt to Jersey Yes, NetEnt has received the green light to launch its digital gaming products. The transactional waiver from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement clears the way for NetEnt to introduce its digital gaming products in the state of New Jersey via the Borgata and bwin.party brands. The application for a Casino Service Industry Enterprise License was submitted earlier in the year. The transactional waiver formally grants NetEnt Americas LLC the rights to go live with its game content while the license application review continues. Official launch date has yet to be determined, with an an announcement pending completion of the installation process and trial of NetEnt servers. Other Partners Other agreements under review and awaiting transactional waiver for launch in New Jersey include partnerships with operators Golden Nugget and Caesars Interactive Entertainment. NetEnt America Managing Director Björn Krantz said called the agreement a milestone in his company's efforts to market in North America.

NYX Gaming has just made its latest slot game available: NextGen’s Jackpot Jester Wild Nudge, a follow-up to its wildly successful NextGen sister, Jackpot Jester 50,000. While the title may be a mouthful, the features are appealing and unique, and the jackpot is a stupendous 100,000 coins. The game is available on both mobile and desktop, and players can play it at LegoVegas Casino, Casino Cruise and Tivoli Casino. About the Game Jackpot Jester Wild Nudge is not for the faint of heart. Beginners should probably start with a simpler slot game, because this one requires some experience, and some guts. On the surface, it looks like a classic 3x3 reel, 5-payline slot - but it’s not. To start with, players can only begin betting on the bottom reels. And as the title of the game implies, you then have to “nudge” your way up. Once you win on the bottom reels, you can advance to the higher reels, which contain larger winning amounts, as well as stacked wilds that nudge themselves to cover the whole reel. If you prefer not to advance to the higher reels, you can cash out. But you won’t make it to the grand 100,000 jackpot. That’s where experience, and guts, comes in - you have to decide whether to advance forward (and go for the jackpot), or to just call it quits and cash out with whatever winnings you have. You can always decide to call it quits - and then start the game anew with your fresh winnings. When you play with 20 coins (as opposed to 10), you will get better returns, which is the only way you can advance towards the upper reels. This means that you need to be able to have a bankroll that can afford .20 a spin - so be honest with yourself about whether this is a game for you. About NYX Gaming Group NYX Gaming Group offers an impressive portfolio of Slot, Casino and Bingo games from their own studio as well as other third party suppliers (such as NextGen). NYX Gaming works with over 100 customer partners and offers over 300 online games.
When New Jersey launched its online gambling initiative in November 2013, analysts predicted huge amounts of revenue for the ambitious state. And yet, the numbers from 2014 were disappointing, with many questioning whether New Jersey would ever see the amount of online gaming revenue it had originally foreseen. Now, as we near the second anniversary of New Jersey’s regulated online gambling, analysts are predicting a 25% revenue increase from 2014, to the tune of $150 million at the end of 2015. Why the sudden, or not-so-sudden, increase? First of all, payments processing, which had a lot of kinks to work out in 2014, is continuously being improved upon, which will make online gambling much more accessible and pleasant. Secondly, New Jersey is continuing to improve the quality and variety of online casino offerings and reward programs, which is attracting more players. Online Casinos' Continued Growth Just as encouraging as increased revenue is the increase in the number of new accounts being created for online gambling in New Jersey, which means that more new players are joining the ranks of New Jersey’s online casinos. Online Poker is a Different Story While the revenue from online gambling as a whole in New Jersey is increasing, the revenue from online poker has been steadily decreasing. In January 2014, online poker revenue hit its peak at $3.4 million; since then, it’s been on a downward spiral, ending somewhere around $2 million in July 2015. Will Online Poker Keep on Plummeting?It’s difficult to say. New Jersey hopefuls thought that the excitement from the World Series of Poker last month would trickle down to New Jersey, but it didn't. Other hopefuls think that the upcoming entry of new brands into the New Jersey market might give the overall online poker initiative a boost, but analysts tend to think that it will be temporary, and that the industry will eventually stabilize at around $2 million.
Spain won the World Cup and Euro less than a decade ago, but their recent performance in the final stages of these competitions were disheartening. They were at least expected to cruise to another final tournament by winning their group by a landslide, yet right now Spain has to settle for the second-place. The former champions already lost on the road against Slovakia but they can return the favor on Saturday. A 90 Minutes Siege for Slovakia The visitors are the only team besides England to have won all the six games so far and they plan on expanding their track record. Objectively speaking, their chances to prevail in Spain are slim, but the actual target is to avoid defeat and maintain their position at the top of the group. This is easier said than done and coach Kozak is going to revert to a defensive minded starting formation with a single striker. This shouldn’t hurt his team’s chances of scoring on the road, because the top goalscorers so far are actually midfielders Hamisk and Kucka. Both are fit to play and will feature in the starting 11, therefore represent a serious threat to the home side. Narrow Margin Victories for Spain The hosts are not overly concerned about the outcome of this game, although they are just three points ahead of Ukraine and they will face the Eastern Europeans on the road. They expect an easy victory against Slovakia and are entitled to expect a defensive opponent that will pose few threats offensively. Complacency has always been the biggest threat for top teams and Spain lost plenty of points recently due to the fact that they didn’t take opponent seriously. Punters who plan on wagering on this fixture would be better off taking the underdogs at even odds with Bet365, trusting them not to lose by more than 1.5 goals.
