With only a few weeks left in the MLB regular season all teams with playoff hopes left for this wild season are making a final push. The Red Sox were down and out a couple of months ago, but after rallying in the last quarter of the year, they are now in excellent position to make it to the off-season, but need a winning streak to ensure their spot. Tampa Bay stands in their way and could destroy their ambitions. If Tampa wants the win they will need to beat one of the best pitchers in baseball, as David Price takes the mound. David Price started his career at Tropicana Field and he returns there tonight to pitch against his former team. The Rays are throwing their young gun Blake Snell at the red Sox in hopes that he can shut the heavy Red Sox offense from doing what they do best. Snell beat the Padres last week allowing just one run in five innings but over three August starts he has an ERA of 3.00. Price is a machine and has made it over seven innings in 19 of his 26 starts. There is little that anyone can do against Price, that is except for the Rays. Price is 0-3 against the Rays since they traded him but is one a two-game winning streak and hopes that he can beat his old team. The Red Sox are 5-4 against the Rays this year and have not been able to get consistent against them. The odds at bet365 Sports are closer than one would think as the second place Red Sox are playing the last place Rays. Pre Game odds and Live Betting The Rays are underdogs tonight even with home field advantage. bet365 Sports has posted odds at 2.30 for the Rays and 1.66 for the Red Sox. bet365 is also offering live in play bets for punters that are looking for an interactive gambling experience.
One of the leading gaming solutions developers Tain received a Romanian gaming license. Yesterday's press release from the company confirmed that Tain was granted a Class 2 license from the Romanian National Gambling Office (ONJN). The license enables the company to offer their services to iGaming operators in Romania. Purchase by XIN Gaming Gives Wings to Tain Just last month, Asian gaming software giant XIN Gaming purchased Tain and the sister company Betting Promotion. These two Swedish companies merged back in 2013 and have been increasingly successful ever since. The purchase by the Asian developer marked a new milestone in their history, opening doors to new possibilities. Tain's Managing Director Mathias Larsson hinted that the the Romanian gaming license is just the first step in the expansion process. The plan is to increase their presence in Romania but also claim their share of other regulated markets in Eastern Europe. The company's PR suggests that the next country on their radar is Hungary. Romanian Market Waking Up A significant number of gaming software developers have received Romanian licences as of late. This trend suggests awakening of the sorts with the market finally becoming interesting and sustainable. The government in the country finally decided to do away with restrictive measures which made it all but impossible for developers to offer their services in Romania. Back in 2015, many casino operators were forced out as their licenses were abruptly revoked. Players were also left in an unenviable position as their options were extremely limited and playing on blacklisted sites carried with it a risk of big fines. The new legislation, which came in force in late February 2016, finally allowed companies registered in the EU or Switzerland to enter the market, either via Class 1 (gambling activities) or Class 2 (related activities) licenses. The change did not come one moment too soon, as it should prove beneficial for all parties involved: casino operators and developers, the country, and, of course, Romanian players.
One of the best known names in the online casino industry, Stockholm-based Betsson has entered a partnership agreement with the online slots provider StakeLogic. The agreement will see Betsson receive a range of 3D HTML5 based casino games produced by StakeLogic. Mutually Beneficial Cooperation According to Andy Broughton Braithwaite, Games of Chance Director over at Betsson, the newly signed agreement is expected to produce great results for both companies. StakeLogic already has an avid catalogue of different games available and they are more than capable of producing more top notch, unique online casino content. For StakeLogic, this is a great opportunity to have their products made available to a wider range of customers. This partnership comes on the trail of the cooperation agreement they signed earlier this year with Unibet, another major online casino provider. "We are thrilled to work with Betsson. Teaming up with Betsson to offer their players our games is an exciting development for our company. Ruben Visse, CEO of StakeLogic". As of right now, there are several new and exciting StakeLogic games offered by Betsson, including titles like “Random 2 Wins” and “Game 2000.” In the upcoming weeks and months, this offer will be expanded to encompass a much larger number of games across Betsson brands. Betsson Looking to Grow Their Business The Swedish based company with offices all over Europe, Betsson has been posting great results during the recent months. With this latest move, they are looking to further establish their position and continue with the growth trend. The online casino offering remains one of the most valuable company’s assets, accounting for the quarterly revenue of SEK683 million. With the new and improved games provided by StakeLogic, this number is expected to grow. Sports betting represents another important segment of the business, recording 8% quarterly increase and bringing in further SEK223 million. Adding another SEK383 million that came from the mobile segment, accounting for 41% of the total group’s intake, it is only natural for Betsson to seek new opportunities to maintain this positive trend. StakeLogic Establishing Their Market Position As a subsidiary of the company going under the Greentube name and a part of NOVOMATIC Interactive, StakeLogic has based its entire business model on creating and delivering 3D HTML5 slot games to online casino operators. Having necessary skills and expertise in the field, the company was able to establish itself as one of the go-to providers for several big names. Just recently, the Malta Gaming Authority awarded the company a Class 4 Gaming License, enabling StakeLogic to fully license their products to third parties. The license further strengthens the company’s position as one of the leading high-end casino game providers.

If Brendan Rodgers gets his way, after only three months in the position of manager he will have achieved one of his biggest goals for the year. Making it to the Champions League Group Stage is something that he wants for Celtic and the fans want the same thing too. The Scottish side traveled to Israel a couple of days ago and their star winger Patrick Roberts is back in contention after a three-week injury kept him on the sidelines.

Most of us don't really believe when we hear that someone has won a big amount of money at an online casino. It always feels like something that doesn't happen in real life or, at best, always happens to other people. That's exactly the way Scott Clydesdale, a construction worker from Durham, felt. Until a few days ago, that is. Turning £20 into £1.6 Million It was just an ordinary day for the Durham local who picked up the £20 bonus at Sky Vegas casino to try his luck. It is safe to assume that he, like most of us, would be perfectly happy if he ended up with an extra few hundred quid in his pocket. Scott's game of choice on that faithful day was the Toy Factory progressive slot and things weren't going particularly well. After some twenty minutes of play, his bonus was almost gone and it seemed like it was going to be just another valiant effort with nothing to show for it. The Big Moment Just as Scott's balance was about to hit zero, everything went crazy. The game stopped and he was facing the message notifying him he won £1,627,168. Like most of us, he refused to believe it at first. That kind of stuff just doesn't happen to ordinary people - except that sometimes it does! This was one such occasion and when the initial shock passed, Scott started to realize he was a proper millionaire. He was awarded his £1.6 million check at the Redworth Hall Hotel in Durham. The money, he explained, will go a long way in pursuing some of his dreams which include going on a first-ever real vacation and following darts and Peter Wright more closely. Additionally, with a wedding just around the corner, the timing couldn't have been better for Clydesdale. Not that it is ever a bad time to win £1.6 million.
The lost world of Atlantis has been capturing the imagination of many explorers and myth lovers around the globe for centuries. There were numerous attempts at finding the lost treasures of this mystical place but, so far, they've all been unsuccessful. For those not as adventurous as to go out and look for it, NetEnt came up with the Secrets of Atlantis slot, bringing Atlantis straight to our homes. Fast-paced Action with 40 Paylines Drawing on the idea of Plato's Atlantis, the powerful and highly advanced kingdom which was allegedly lost under the sea, Secrets of Atlantis is a 5-reel slot with 40 paylines. The symbols you will encounter include mermaids, jellyfish, clamps, and precious stones. Although there isn't a traditional free spins feature, this new NetEnt's slot does offer players a chance to win big via Nudge Wild and Colossal Symbol features. The Mermaid symbol is wild and stacked on the reels. When a small piece of the Mermaid appears on any of the reels, it will be nudged up or down to cover the entire reel. The Colossal Symbol will fill up the middle three reels when activated and will act as a wild for that symbol type. If the full Colossal Symbol is highlighted, it will trigger an additional re-spin. If symbols line up just right, Secrets of Atlantis slot can pay up to 1,600 the stake. Graphics and Atmosphere The new slot by NetEnt, which should be available at casinos powered by the software like LuckyStar Casino, 777 Casino, and Real Deal Bet Casino, will fully immerse you into the atmosphere of the submerged world of Atlantis. Set in the under the sea environment and with symbols you'd expect to find if Atlantis were ever discovered, this slot provides a thoroughly enjoyable atmosphere. Sounds and music follow the main theme along nicely, as they are relaxing and mysterious at the same time. While the theme melody is pacifying, it carries a note of uncertainty, always keeping you on your toes.
Manchester City beat Steaua Bucharest last week 5-0, which actually ties their biggest ever win in European competitions. There is really little that the visitors from Bucharest can do tonight, needing to go into Etihad Stadium down by such a heavy toll, but there are a ton of attractive odds for tonight's match at bet365 Sports so punters should check out the lines. Manchester City Head Coach will be letting go of goalkeeper Joe Hart in the coming weeks. The England keeper will start tonight's match for his first appearance this season, but Pep Guardiola says that he can look for another team to sign with. Guardiola is set on bringing Barcelona keeper Claudio Bravo, who will undergo a medical at Etihad Stadium. City will be without full-back Bacary Sagna, Vincent Kompany, Ilkay Gundogan and Leroy Sane. Samir Nasri, Wilfried Bony, Eliaquim Mangala and Leroy Sane are not going to plat either, as they are not registered to do so tonight. There are still a lot of weapons at Guardiola's side and Steaua do not have a chance of advancing. Romanian sides have not been able to score a goal against Man City in the last three matches, but Manchester have scored eight goals over those games. Steaua have lost their last four matches against English teams. Even with a huge lead, Guardiola is weary of Steaua Bucharest knowing that upsets like this have happened before. Just last night in the second leg of the match between Hapoel Be'er Sheva and Celtic, the Israeli side, down 5-2 after the first match came back to win 2-0 only missing out on making the Group Stage by a single goal. Live Odds bet365 Sports is offering incredible odds ahead of, and during tonight's match and punters should take a look at the action. City are at 1.20 to win, while Steaua are at 17.00.

Israeli company Optimove, one of the leading Customer Marketing Clouds, entered a partnership agreement with the internet tech giant Google. Integrating their technology with DoubleClick by Google, the company aims to achieve better customer engagement as well as much higher retention rates using highly personalized ads dispatched via various Google media platforms. Individual Approach to Increase Advertising Effectiveness In the PR announcing the integration, Pin Yakuel, CEO of Optimove, emphasized that the biggest challenge for those running paid advertising campaigns has been determining customer groups to include in specific ad campaigns. Furthermore, tracking and constantly updating lists of audiences is a comprehensive task which will be significantly facilitated using the Optimove's technology. The information gathered using the platform will allow for granular marketing strategies, targeted at much smaller groups based on their online activities. The data is constantly updated in the Optimove's system, providing clients with the most recent and relevant info. The Optimove's success comes largely due to their experimental approach to marketing. Every campaign is conducted as a sort of an experiment, where all gathered information and feedback is analyzed in detail and used to improve future campaigns. The company integrated with Facebook Custom Audiences in 2014 and that integration proved a great success. Personalized Ads in Online Gambling? This type of approach to marketing and customer retention is something online casinos would be particularly interested in as it would enable them to not only target their ads but to also measure their effectiveness. At this point in time we can't say with certainty what the integration will look like but Optimove is on the rise and they will certainly not back away from a challenge. The company already cooperates with some of the gaming giants like Caesar’s Entertainment, Amaya, and Zynga. There is no doubt that these Optimove’s business partners will be finding ways to profit from this latest strategic deal with Google.
