XIN Gaming has kicked off May by unveiling its brand new Monkey King slot, which is now available at participating casino sites. In terms of theme, players will appreciate this video slot if they enjoy gaming content with Asian themes. Journey to the West To create the game, XIN Gaming has drawn literary inspiration from Journey to the West, a Chinese novel beloved by millions. Within that tale, there is a character called the Monkey King, who serves as the integral focus for this new slot. In transitioning from page to digital screen, XIN Gaming has designed Monkey King as a five-reel slot with three rows. For general wagering, players will get to win across the 25 paylines found in the base gaming experience. Bonus Rewards Beyond the standard gameplay, players can depend on the wild symbols to lend help by substituting for core symbols that are missing. Players will also have progressive bonus spins and four mini features. XIN Gaming has sought inspiration from retro video game Street Fighter by challenging players to battle with enemies to earn victory bonuses. During this portion of the game, players can also increase multipliers to boost the value of their prize. Asian Growth Strategy The launch of Monkey King is part of XIN Gaming’s wider strategy of trying to become the leading casino software provider in Asia. By creating a slot based on a classic like Journey to the West, the provider is seeking to connect with players by making games that connect with their heritage. Thus far, XIN Gaming has created and released more than a dozen video slots with a visual Asian style, with games also containing deeper elements. In recapping the provider’s previous releases, these include Dragon’s Pearl, Lucky 8, Chinese New Year, Red Panda, and Moon Festival.

Pacos Ferreira are usually one of the teams threatened by the specter of relegation, yet this season they had no reason to fear such a fate. In the remaining rounds, they find themselves chasing an elusive Europa League berth, one that can be secured only by winning the remaining two matches. Tondela is their first opponent and the visitors will be fighting for their Liga Sagre life, as they currently sit below the relegation line. Easy Schedule for Pacos Ferreira The home side trails Arouca by four points, but they have a better head to head record and a relatively easy schedule ahead. If their rivals fail to win any of the remaining two matches and Pacos Ferreira prevails in both games, they will leapfrog them for the fifth-place. Since they will be playing exclusively against teams trying to avoid relegation, today’s hosts are entitled to be optimistic. Recent results have also highlighted their desire to fight until the very end, with Pacos Ferreira winning four games in a row. These include two narrow margin victories over Porto and Braga, some of the best teams in the Portuguese first division. With no players injured or suspended, they have no reason to hold back and will come out firing on all cylinders on Friday. Fading Hopes for Tondela Today’s visitors have a couple of problems on their hands, including the fact that they score less than one goal per match. Setubal and Madeira are five points ahead of them and all they need is one point in the remaining two matches to avoid relegation. The visitors are basically at the mercy of their opponents and not having their faith in their own hands is disheartening to say the least. Pacos Ferreira is one of the better home teams in the Portuguese first division and now that they are also motivated to win, Tondela’s chances don’t look that good. Punters would be wise to bet on a home victory as soon as possible, since the odds at bet365 Sports will drop as kickoff draws near.
Van Gaal was brought at Manchester United with high expectations, but the Dutch manager started on the wrong foot. The team was on the verge of missing all targets, but it has a chance at redemption now, as it will play in the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace. Equally important is to secure a Champions League berth and the team blocking their way is Norwich, which has its very own agenda. Nothing to Lose, Everything to Gain Manchester United have played cautious football throughout the season, especially on the road and this didn’t do them any good. Low-scoring victories can only help them that much and they have nothing to lose, because a draw or defeat would be exactly the same. Victory over Norwich however would bring them within striking distance of Manchester City and the Champions League playoffs. Their city rivals are wagering a war on two fronts, with matches in both the most prestigious European competition and the Premier League. They are credited with the first chance against Arsenal, but the Gunners are in better shape, so anything can happen. Meanwhile, the Red Devils need to do their part and win on the road to keep themselves in the driver’s seat. Norwich Standing on the Brink At the beginning of April, Norwich looked like a team capable of warding off the specter of relegation, but three consecutive defeats crushed their dreams. They will play twice at home in the remaining free rounds but they are two points behind Newcastle, who takes on Aston Villa. The hosts have a relatively easier schedule and one game in hand, but anything short of victory against Manchester United would jeopardize their chances to survive. bet365 Sports offers odds of 4/5 on the visitors to win, which represents good value under these circumstances.
According to the reports released by Unibet, the company has registered a new record in revenue after hitting £122.4 million for the first three months of 2016. This represents a huge increase of 61% from the revenue registered in the three months ending on March 31, 2015 and also comes with a boost in profits. The operator offers successful online products for sports betting, online casino games, bingo and poker which are available in multiple languages. Doubling profits in one year Compared to the first quarter of 2015, the figures show that Unibet has almost doubled its profit before taxes to reach £22.5 million from £11.3 million. After taxes, the profit is of £20 to represent a full 100% growth from £10 million. The growth can also be seen in the number of active customers that access the online gambling website, with Unibet Casino really taking off in the past 12 months. Across the entire network, the number of unique and active users reached 1,006,365 in the three months of 2016 while the same period in 2015 had only 612,269 customers. This helped the earnings per share increase to £0.087 from £0.044. Increasing market share With the mentioned rates, Unibet is well over the growth of the overall market, showing that the operator is increasing its share in Europe. Notable increases in gross winnings revenue took place in the Nordic markets for 58%, with the figures for Western Europe also increasing by 63%. According to the Unibet chief executive, the average gross winnings revenue on a daily basis for the period leading up to 24th April, 2016 increased by almost 50% from the matching period in 2015 despite having lower margins for sports betting. Unibet Casino is certainly a big driving point for the growth as the simple design allows it to feature various big titles for video slots, including the latest NetEnt releases, Microgaming progressives and exclusive gaming options from known developers.

A new month has arrived and BetVictor Casino has unveiled three new slot games for players to experience. From May onwards, Bet Victor Casino players will have access to Treasures of the Pyramids, Dragon Drop, and Jack’s Beanstalk. Details on each are available below. Treasures of the Pyramids Treasures of the Pyramids comes from IGT, which is the software provider behind high-profile releases like Cleopatra and DaVinci Diamonds. IGT has travelled back to Ancient Egypt once more to give players a fresh experience. One of the most interesting design features is the insertion of an extra row of symbols. With 20 symbols appearing at once, IGT has given players 40 paylines over the five reels. Players can also win by landing three or more scatter symbols to unlock free games. Dragon Drop Dragon Drop is a fairytale slot that features dragons, knights, sheep, and castles within the cast of symbols, which can land on the five reels of this 25-payline slot. Designed by NextGen Gaming, this Dragon Drop is of video-quality standard. The main special feature is called Dropping Dragons, which can see dragons dropping at random to change useless symbols into wild symbols. A second rewarding feature can be the dragon eggs, with three or more combining to trigger eight free games and a 2x multiplier. Jack’s Beanstalk NextGen has also contributed Jack’s Beanstalk as a homage to the classic fairytale. Alongside Jack, players will also recognise the lumberjack and the golden harp. By design, the slot has five reels and 25 paylines. What adds to the experience is that Jack’s Beanstalk even features magic bean symbols. When these land anywhere on reels two, three, or four, a Wild Beanstalk will trigger along with three free games. The there is the Golden Egg feature, where three of them symbols will let players select a random prize.
Manchester City made no secret of its plans to focus on the Champions League this season and Pellegrini channeled his entire attention on the European competition. Leicester took advantage and won the trophy, while Tottenham secured direct qualification to the group stage next year. Arsenal is still clinging on to its third-place, one that would allow the Gunners to join the runners-up without going through the playoffs. The Power of One Point Arsenal won the first leg against Manchester City by 2-1, so a draw tonight would be enough for the visitors. Even a narrow margin defeat could prove to be enough if the visitors score twice or more, because the Gunners will play against Aston Villa at home in the last round. After a pair of back-to-back defeats in March, Arsenal returned to its winning ways and avoided defeat in seven straight matches. The last victories were all secured at home, with the visitors being unable to find their way to the net. On the road, they’ve allowed a surprisingly high number of goals and this could be a problem against Manchester City, so the emphasis will be on the defense. Fatigue is a Real Problem for Manchester City Playing so many difficult games over a short period of time took its toll on Manchester City, with some of its players suffering from fatigue. The Champions League semifinals against Real Madrid were a roller coaster and their footballers had only four days to rest. At least in theory, the hosts could make one last push and go for a blowout win over Arsenal to ensure direct Champions League participation next season. With Manchester United and West Ham breathing down their necks, the hosts are under serious pressure and could well succumb to it. Risk-averse punters should know that bet365 Sports has excellent odds of 3/5 on a double chance bet on Arsenal that will finish in the money if the Gunners don’t lose at Etihad.
As online casinos go, safety is quite possibly the most important criteria by which potential users choose where to spend their time and money. This is why casinos and sportsbooks that are acknowledged as objectively safe are perceived differently by potential customers who are more likely to sign up and spend their money. Recently, Jackpot Capital Casino and Casino Extreme have received the OCR Seal of Approval which puts them in a list of high-quality online casinos that have been thoroughly tested and reviewed by the Online Casino Reports team. What is the OCR Seal of Approval The OCR Seal of Approval marks the very best iGaming websites on the net. For a casino to get an OCR Seal of Approval it has to meet some very strict criteria in categories such as licensing, software quality, customer service as well as general safety to name a few. The reason for the Seal of Approval process came about after the explosion of online casino brands and operators registered in the last decade. With such a large selection of casinos, clients could sometimes be fooled by the sleek look and impressive sounding offers of some casinos and get a sub-par product. With years of experience, OnlineCasinoReports has collaborated with some of the biggest online gambling operators in the world and strives to deliver only the most relevant information to its clients. Only casinos who have met the most stringent of criteria over prolonged periods of time and have proven that they place the client’s experience as their main business goal have received the OCR Seal of Approval.
