Aloha! Cluster Pays was announced earlier this month and generated enthusiasm among video slot machine fans. NetEnt didn’t keep them waiting and the game was made available to play today, March 22, across casinos powered by the software developer. Playamo Casino, EUCasino and SpinEmpire Casino are some worthy examples and they have already added the brand-new slot machine. Time to Catch Some Sun and Prizes Aloha! Cluster Pays has a pretty intuitive name, with players stepping into a sunny universe the moment they spin the reels for the first time. Action unfolds on the bright Hawaiian Islands and the six reels and five lines of the slot machine are populated by tribal masks, seashells, pineapples and other exotic fruits. The Tiki character is a pleasant sight and a coveted symbol, because it frequently rushes to the help of players. It can appear at any time during the game on the active pay lines and helps players increase their profits or trigger free rounds. There are free spins symbols that can appear anywhere on the reels and the more players unveil, the more bonus rounds will start. More than Meets the Eye About Aloha! Cluster Pays Net Entertainment has a reputation for crafting great looking slot machines, but the software developer is also known for its big payouts. Aloha! Cluster Pays doesn’t have a progressive jackpot, but has the potential of triggering better than average payouts. The coveted Symbol Drop feature is randomly triggered during the free spins mode and it clears the reels of all the low paying symbols. Only the best paying ones stay active when the mini-game starts, therefore players have a better chance at winning a sizable amount. Just as the name suggests, symbol clusters pay an important role in this slot machine, as they set off additional bonus rounds.
The Danish-based Tivoli Casino has announced that it will cease its international Tivolicasino.com operations. In an e-mail communication from Tivoli Casino General Manager Martin Lerby, Tivoli Casino's international com site was announced to cease operating during April 2016; the exact date has yet to be announced but should be communicated in the earliest opportunity. As it reads: "It is with regret we must inform you that Tivolicasino.com will cease operations during April 2016. The exact date will soon be finalised and communicated to you at the earliest opportunity. As we are committed to close down in a controlled and professional way, you can be rest assured that you will be paid all affiliate commissions due on your players referred, for the entire time that Tivolicasino.com remains live." Danish Operation Remains While Tivoli's international operation ceases, the casino's .dk brand remains untouched and unaffected by the business change. One of Tivoli Casino's strongest drawing points are its affiliation to the world famous Tivoli Gardens amusement park located in the center of Denmark's capital, Copenhagen, having been in operation since 1843. Tivoli Casino's managing company is a subsidiary of the Tivoli amusement park. 2012 saw the launch of Tivoli's Danish facing online casino for players from Denmark, and in June 2014 the brand expanded to offer its services to players worldwide, launching an international site with software from prominent developers such as NetEnt, Microgaming and Play'n GO. As of today, the international Tivoli Casino operates on licenses from the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority. In a Stock exchange announcement, Tivoli's Commercial Director Elisabeth Miltion Hemmingsen explained: "Tivoli rapidly built up a significant market position for its Danish online casino. It was therefore natural to attempt to extend this Danish success story by establishing an international online casino. However, Tivoli's international online casino has not achieved the desired results. For instance, the deficit has been larger than expected since the start, and consequently, the international casino will now be closed and instead the resources will be focused on the Danish online casino."
No it is not yet time for the Olympics or another international sporting event, rather a NHL highlight match-up between the capital of the United States (Washington) and the capital of Canada (Ottawa) hockey teams facing off at Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata, Ontario. Tonight is a really big night for the US-based Capitals, as they have yet another chance to secure first place in the Metropolitan Division, after already being the first NHL team to qualify for the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Led by the best Forward in the NHL, Alex Ovechkin, the Capitals are on a tear, already with 107 points and a total of 51 wins so far this season. The Capitals have already defeated the Senators twice this season, both times at Verizon Center. The Capitals failed to qualify for top spot in the Metropolitan, after losing a big game to the Penguins 6-2 on Sunday. Goalie Braden Holtby remains just five wins back of tying Martin Brodeur's win record of 48 in a single season, but he was pulled in the third period against the Penguins. The Senators will stay with the same lines that they played against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night. The team shutout the Canadiens 5-0 and scored three shorthanded goals. The Senators remain in the race for a playoff spot, but their chances are slim and they must start a winning streak tonight, and take that momentum with them in the last few games of the regular season. Having big games from Forward Alex Chiasson, (goals in back-to-back games), Forwards Mika Zibanejad and Mike Hoffman (both four game point streaks), is a must. The Senators must beat the Capitals, which is very possible, as the Caps have already qualified for the playoffs. NHL Live Betting The Senators are a few points back from the Capitals, as listed by bet365 Sports. Punters have a great selection of pre-game and live in play bets to choose from like Point Spread, Over/Under and more.
The two biggest fantasy sports sites in America voluntarily agreed to stop taking bets in New York, and will wait possibly through the entirety of the professional baseball season for lawmakers to complete deliberations on formal legalization of online fantasy sports in the state. The Deal Announced by New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman Monday, DraftKings and FanDuel have agreed to stop taking bets from users with New York IP addresses and withdraw their New York clients' balances within seven days of being asked to do so. If the legislation does not pass in New York's state capitol of Albany, a state appeals court will take up the case for the September term. This moves the dispute from the courts to the legislature, where DraftKings and FanDuel believe that a state Constitutional vote regulating fantasy sports could pass by mid-May. Remaining Legal Dispute Nonetheless, the creation of a general state regulation model will not get DraftKings and FanDuel off the hook from Schneiderman's allegations of false advertising and consumer fraud, levied in response to the companies flooding the internet, television, and radio with advertising at the start of the 2015 NFL season. The Controversy With users paying entry fees to draft teams from a common pool online before the players perform and produce the statistics that determine the fantasy winner, DraftKings and FanDuel market their contests as games of skill, not chance (the category into which sports betting or gambling would fall). Hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers currently voluntarily and enthusiastically participate. The rules and risks remain relatively simple and certainly straightforward. The Online Gambling Issue The debate revolves around whether fantasy sports constitute gambling or not, because there is no law allowing gambling nor treating the issue of online gambling in New York. The Fantasy Sports Issue The fantasy issue specifically constitutes a debate over whether participation in pay-in fantasy leagues constitutes sports betting. The legislative vote will remove the relevance of the passionate and diverse individual perspectives out there by defining the activity that is legally permissible.
Malaysia deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zhaid Hamidi recently announced that he would use the government’s next cabinet meeting as an opportunity to establish a parliamentary caucus to address online gambling. Despite never introducing laws to govern online gambling, the Malaysian government considers the act to be illegal and intends to introduce legislation to clarify the situation. At present, Malaysia is working with the Common Gaming House Act 1953, which was last revised in 1983. Preventative and punitive penalties Moving forward, it appears that remote gambling operators might have to prepare for an exit from the Malaysian market after Zhaid said the act had to be amended to include “preventative and punitive” penalties for online gamblers. To limit online gambling, Zahid spoke of a need for action against internet cafés where players can go for access to the web. Thus far, many of the cafés have managed to avoid reprisals from the authorities by maintaining CCTV and having street informants who can deliver warnings before police arrive. Currently, the gambling outlets fall foul of the law by not operating within the purview of their business licences. This is because the owners make adjustments to their computers and internet equipment to allow for patrons to access online gambling sites from around the world. Change is coming Zahid also explained that the government was training specialist policeman who would serve as anti-gambling experts tasked with bringing down online gambling in Malaysia. For the moment, however, Malaysia is still functioning with out-dated online gambling legislation that is not designed for the modern world. The news from Malaysia makes no mention of a need to regulate the market to generate revenue from remote gambling operators. Instead, Zahid’s announcement is a clear statement that online gambling in any form will soon be outlawed in Malaysia and that operators should stop serving the market.

In June 2015 Amaya acquired PokerStars for a record amount of nearly $5 billion USD and since then its stock surged to new highs. The unexpected news of founder and CEO, David Baazov being charged by Quebec's Financial Securities Regulator with insider trading caused the stock price to drop by 18%. This could be the least of David’s concerns if the charges stick, as he could end up serving time behind bars. Stock Holders Shocked by the Charges Apparently nobody expected David Baazov and other big players to be charged with insider trading, but Amaya was the most affected company. The AMF broke the news and told the media that the charges are related to the manipulation of stock prices over a period of one year, starting on December 2013. Benjamin Ahdoot, Yoel Altman, Diocles Capital Inc and Sababa Consulting Inc were also accused of wrong doing, for a combined 23 charges. The first rumors about the ongoing investigations surfaced in late 2015 and they put an end to the steady rise of Amaya stock. Red Flags in the Wake of the PokerStars Acquisition David Baazov came a long way from being the owner of a penny stock online gaming company to emerging as the CEO of an industry leader. The acquisition of PokerStars for $4.9 billion USD was supposed to be Amaya’s biggest achievement, but it is more likely to cause David’s downfall. AMF authorities got suspicious after Amaya took over the poker giant and also raided its previous owner, Canaccord Genuity. Mr. Baazov stated that the allegations are false and that he intends to contest them, while expecting to be found innocent of all charges. These accusations however couldn’t have possible come at a worse time for him, as he intended to take the company private in exchange of a cash offer of CDN$21 a share.
Betchain Casino is the latest online casino to achieve the OCR Seal of Approval, which was established to create a clear set of industry standards that can be used to identify the best and most trustworthy online casinos in the world. A Proven Casino In attaining the seal, Betchain had to prove itself in a number of areas. These include the ability to secure at least a four-star review, having satisfied a rigorous review process that covers software, mobile accessibility, and other crucial factors. Additionally, the seal also calls for months of seniority, a clean reputation, and a commitment to resolving complaints. Financial Security Betchain has expressed an ability to provide a secure payment infrastructure by integrating SSL technology to encrypt all financial transactions. This ensures that each player will receive protection, regardless of whether they prefer VISA, MasterCard, Bitcoin, Cubits, LAVApay, Neteller, PugglePay, Skrill, or paysafecard. Bitcoin Accepted Over the past several months, Bitcoin has grown in presence as a payment method at online casinos, with more and more players drawn to its anonymity and highly secure design. Based on those benefits, it is an appealing payment method in the market, so Betchain has made a positive decision to extend this service to its players. Software Setup SoftSwiss acts as the primary software partner, which means that this provider is responsible for adding gaming content and also for ensuring everything functions smoothly within web browsers. Also notable is that SoftSwiss has built a versatile collection of games from top developers in Amatic, BetSoft, Endorphina, and Microgaming.
