Sports event promotions company Matchroom has acquired the live streaming and production specialist Loop Streaming and Productions Limited. Loop will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Matchroom Media, the broadcast production arm formed at the start of this year.

Loop has played an integral part already at Matchroom through the years working across an array of sports producing streams for both Matchroom’s OTT platform Matchroom.Live, Social Channels and Broadcasters around the globe.

The acquisition will take Matchroom’s vast experience and Loop’s world-leading live production innovations to new levels delivering content for some of Matchroom’s pillar stones including Boxing, PDC Darts, Matchroom Pool, World Snooker Tour and a host of Matchroom Multi Sport events. Recent productions from Loop have included WST Home Nations and European Series broadcast coverage, all Matchroom Boxing’s Fight Week Activity, Matchroom Multi Sport’s Championship League Pool and the Professional Darts Corporation’s Super Series.

“After many years working alongside Loop, we’re delighted that they will now be a part of the Matchroom Group and look forward to joining forces to grow our production services. We have always been impressed by their progressive approach to producing quality live productions for both OTT and linear platforms and are excited to push on together with more broadcasts,” Katie Hearn, Director of Programming at Matchroom Media, said.

The acquisition will see Loop’s Head of Production, Nick Oldfield, assume the role of Managing Director.

“Katie and Matchroom’s plans to grow its in-house production arm is very exciting. Loop prides itself on its innovative, aggressive and streamlined production workflows. Couple this with Matchroom’s ever growing array of new live OTT and broadcast events, makes for a refreshing move in the industry. Myself and rest of the team can’t wait to get started!” Nick Oldfield said.

DeGaming launches Web3 iGaming platform, names Ulle Skottling CEO

DeGaming has launched a Web3 iGaming platform and appointed Ulle Skottling as CEO, with the company positioning on-chain operations as a way to improve transparency across operators, affiliates and players.

The platform’s core product pitch is its proprietary “Glass Vault” technology, which DeGaming says provides real-time proof of funds and independently verifiable visibility of balances, transactions, and payouts.

DeGaming is also offering “Bankroll as a service,” routing transactions through its on-chain transaction engine to provide operators access to scalable liquidity for withdrawals and platform stability. The company said this is designed to reduce friction for operators trying to scale, while giving players visibility into the funds available on the platform.

The supplier said its unified platform combines game access, player account management (PAM) and reporting in a single blockchain-native operational engine. DeGaming added that operators can launch a customisable casino or sportsbook in “as little as two weeks,” including crypto and fiat deposits, automated payouts and a back-office.

Skottling joins as CEO to lead what DeGaming called its next phase. He has held senior roles at RAW iGaming, Videoslots and NetEnt. Skottling said: “The industry has evolved rapidly, but transparency and trust have not kept pace. It runs on what you can’t see, whereas we have built a platform that you can. We are challenging the model and defining the new standard for gaming infrastructure.

“Our Glass Vault technology gives operators, affiliates and players independently verifiable visibility into platform activity and funds in real time. The future of gaming will be built on openness, accountability and infrastructure that all participants genuinely trust.”

Emil Ahmed, co-founder of DeGaming, added: “Appointing Ulle as CEO is an important step in DeGaming’s next phase. We have built the platform around a clear belief that gaming needs more transparency, stronger infrastructure, and greater operational trust. Ulle brings the industry experience, commercial understanding, and leadership needed to take that vision to market and help operators launch with confidence.”

Century Casinos Inc. announced that Lyle Randolph, a long-term regional Vice President and General Manager of the Company, will take over as Executive Vice President of Operations for the US.

Mr. Randolph will be appointed to this new role effective May 15, 2026. As Executive Vice President of Operations for the US, Mr. Randolph will oversee the Company’s seven U.S. properties. These casinos comprise a combined 4701 slot machines, 93 table games, 2127 hotel rooms, and over 20 food and beverage venues.

Mr. Randolph is a veteran gaming and hospitality executive with more than 30 years of leadership experience in casino operations, hotel and food & beverage management, capital development, and multi-property strategic oversight. He began his gaming career in 1995 at Casino Aztar in Missouri. When Isle of Capri Casinos acquired the property, he became General Manager of both Caruthersville and Cape Girardeau. Throughout his leadership tenure, he successfully navigated the properties through multiple ownership transitions involving Isle of Capri Casinos and Eldorado Resorts while operating under the leadership and mentorship of notable gaming industry executives including James Perry, Virginia McDowell, Eric Hausler, Gary Carano, and Tom Reeg. These experiences provided exposure to a broad spectrum of leadership philosophies ranging from entrepreneurial founder-led management and family-driven regional gaming growth to highly analytical, public-company expansion strategies. During his tenure with Isle of Capri Casinos, Mr. Randolph received the company’s Jack Galloway Award recognizing leadership and operational achievement.

Since Century Casinos’ acquisition of the Missouri properties in 2019, Mr. Randolph has served as Vice President of Operations for both Missouri casino properties. Mr. Randolph has overseen more than $80 million in combined capital development projects, which has resulted in Adjusted EBITDAR growing over 70% under his leadership.

In addition to his operational responsibilities, Mr. Randolph has remained active in civic, charitable, and industry leadership initiatives throughout his career, including statewide advisory appointments and leadership roles with regional business, tourism, humanitarian, and gaming organizations, underscoring his understanding of the value of responsible corporate citizenship. Mr. Randolph’s established track record as a results-oriented and effective leader will continue to drive the Company’s growth within the gaming and hospitality industry.

ENJOY Gaming has expanded its live casino portfolio with the launch of Greek Roulette, an automated roulette product that adds multiplier mechanics to standard table gameplay.

The title is set in an ancient Greek-themed studio and uses an automated wheel. Alongside traditional inside and outside bets, each round includes a Lucky Numbers feature that randomly selects between one and twelve numbers and assigns multipliers of up to x777.

If a straight-up bet lands on a Lucky Number, the company said the standard payout is replaced by the assigned multiplier.

Elena Shestak, Art Director at ENJOY Gaming, said: “Greek Roulette demonstrates how traditional table products can be refreshed through careful design, forming part of a wider effort to evolve our live and automated portfolio consistently.

“By introducing Lucky Numbers and dynamic multipliers within a traditional framework, we’re focused on modernising established formats in ways that feel natural, recognisable, and distinctly ENJOY.”
