He is also an enthusiastic poker player and has a keen understanding of what players expect from the ideal poker room.

In particular, his expertise in sports betting will help us to better understand players who enjoy that side of the sector and optimise our offering to suit them.

“This industry knowledge and experience will be invaluable to our business as we continue to design and deploy market-leading online poker solutions across LatAm and beyond.”

Roman Bogoduhov, EvenBet Gaming’s Head of Business Development LatAm, said: “It’s an understatement to say I’m delighted to be joining the EvenBet Gaming team. As a company, we have built up significant momentum across the online poker landscape and that shows no sign of slowing down.
