Published

on

 

Maverick Gaming announced the launch of its new “Ace’s Poker” room in the city of Mountlake Terrace, Washington. This exciting new poker brand is the first in the state and represents the continuous investment in Maverick Gaming’s strategy to redevelop and connect its properties across its regional footprint. Based in Kirkland, Washington, Maverick Gaming has acquired numerous unique brands and properties in Nevada, Colorado, and Washington. The multi-year plan is to upgrade the physical infrastructure, improve the overall gaming/guest experience, and rebrand as Maverick Casino & Hotel, Ace’s Poker, Dragon Tiger Casino, or Macau Legend. The integration of its properties showcases Maverick Gaming’s investment in local communities, including its long-term commitment as a community partner through its employee-led philanthropic arm, Maverick Cares.

“I am excited to continue investing in our local communities by offering great jobs in a new venue for entertainment in Mountlake Terrace. Growing up in Hoquiam, it was a dream of mine to build a gaming company in my home state of Washington. Ace’s Poker is designed to be a destination of choice for those who like to play cards responsibly,” said Eric Persson, Chief Executive Officer and majority owner of Maverick Gaming.

Maverick Gaming’s state-of-the-art property will debut with over $2 million in renovations, highlighting an investment in the local economy and workers. Ace’s Poker will employ 90 staff from its union-led workforce (Maverick Gaming is the largest private sector employer of Teamsters Local 117 members in the state of Washington). Each facility will continue to be an integral part of Maverick Gaming’s implementation of rigorous problem gambling policies which include a company-wide self-exclusion practice, which was one of the first in the state. Renovations and features of the new property include:

Sought-after software provider announces new partnership deal that will see its full suite of slots go live at leading Lucky7 brands including LuckyDays.se

Having steadily expanded its presence in regulated markets in recent months, in-demand software provider, Swintt, has announced it has made further in-roads into Scandinavia and Ontario after signing a new partnership deal with licensed network, Lucky7.

Operating a wide range of high-profile online casino brands, Lucky7 has a strong presence not only in Scandinavia, where it runs platforms like LuckyDays.se and LuckyDays.com/fi – but also in Ontario, further expanding its global footprint. Through this new deal, all platforms in the Lucky7 portfolio will now have access to Swintt’s complete selection of state-of-the-art slots.

With this huge library of content not only including SwinttPremium and SwinttSelect games, but also titles from the recently-established Elysium Studios Driven by Swintt line, the collaboration will ensure that all Lucky7 customers can enjoy an even greater choice of quality gaming options.

While Swintt’s core product offering has already built up a strong following across Europe, it’s the Elysium Studios range of games that will likely hold the most appeal for Lucky7, given these titles have been designed specifically with modern markets like Scandinavia in mind.

Packed with innovative features and mobile-optimised mechanics, some of the games in the Elysium Studios line-up that will now go live across the Lucky7 network include I Hate Fairytales, Wild Wild North and the highly anticipated upcoming title, Pirate Pledge Hold & Win.

Scheduled to launch this March, the new game promises to be a swashbuckling adventure across the seven seas where players can harness the power of expanding wilds and special Pirate Spins to boost their base game winnings, making it an ideal choice for all fans of next generation slots.

Of course, with that merely being the tip of the iceberg in terms of the new games that will shortly be coming to Lucky7 brands, the partnership will help the company cement its position as a Scandinavian market leader while also helping Swintt get its games in front of a wider audience.

Lars Kollind, Head of Business Development at Swintt, said: “Scandinavia has always been an important market for Swintt – and with our new Elysium Studios line-up, we’re even better positioned to give players in the region the type of content they want. With this in mind, the timing of this partnership with Lucky7 is perfect, as it will not only help us put our titles in front of a wider audience but also allow the network to offer an even stronger range of modern gaming options.”

Klara Sedlarikova, Casino Manager at Lucky7, said: “As a brand with a strong focus on regulated markets, it’s important for Lucky7 to constantly stay on top of evolving tastes and preferences of our customers. By adding Swintt titles to our network we’ll be able to offer our players an even wider choice of quality content, all of which has been designed with this modern, tech-savvy audience in mind.”
