Inside The Pocket (ITP), the world’s only free-to-play and pay-to-play (F2P & P2P) aggregation platform, has launched Pro Football Survivor, an exciting new F2P game that offers industry professionals a jaw-dropping $100k prize ($50k to the winner, and a further $50k to their nominated charity) ahead of the upcoming 2023/24 Pro Football season, which gets underway on 7 September.

Pro Football Survivor is aimed at engaging all businesspeople at the intersection of sports betting and business, media and igaming, alongside a wider ecosystem – from leagues to agencies, across hospitality providers, caterers and even restaurants.

The popular Survivor format simply asks all participants to pick a non-reusable team to win every week throughout the entire Regular Season and the Playoffs. This ease of play is the reason for its recognised acquisition and retention strengths around repeat visits and improved dwell-time (as players routinely return to check results and their respective standings against colleagues and friends on the leaderboard, which is settled and updated after each game day).

The competition rules are as follows:

  • Register at: https://itpsurvivor.io/survivor/
  • Each week during the Pro Football season and playoffs, you must pick the winner of a game.
  • You can only choose each team once throughout the entire season, including the playoffs and the Pro Football Championship game in Las Vegas.
  • Only the final results at the end of regulation time will count. If a game you select is tied at the end of regulation, the selection will be deemed to have lost, regardless of overtime.

The game is now open to entries and industry peer-to-peer sharing across an evolving landscape of diverse players and companies which represent a wide spectrum of commercial intersectionality. ITP continues to stand alone in the F2P and P2P content market in that, via a single integration, it opens up an entire market of 20+ free-to-play and pay-to-play content providers to satisfy sports and casino needs around the world, irrespective of the data environment.

Hussain Naqi, Founder and CEO of Inside The Pocket, said: “No matter what Al Pacino said in Any Given Sunday, it’s actually a game of inching along, surviving week-by-week, and outlasting your rivals. So, join us for Pro Football Survivor and stand a chance to win big while also supporting a great charitable cause! It’s a fun way to learn more about America’s favourite sport, or flex your bragging-rights if you know the game well. It takes under a minute each week, and hopefully you’ll be coming back every week to play!”

“We’ve launched Pro Football Survivor to help people understand how we’re different. And it’s a broad church out there whom we want to engage, shining a light on the wide-ranging solutions that our unique platform can provide when it comes to acquisition and retention.

“We’re focused on B2B clients, whether that’s in sports media, the betting and gaming space, the hospitality industry, the restaurant sector or any other party amongst a varied Venn Diagram of interconnectivity. At ITP, we want to house many new potential partners under this same roof, such is our platform’s ability to target specific recreational player-groups and fulfil nuanced acquisition and retention goals.

“At ITP, we don’t view the landscape merely in terms of games. Rather, we think about the space as an entire ecosystem and strategy which we specifically cultivate as a flexible and ever-evolving piece of content for an overlapping and interdependent chain of companies to whom we can now demonstrate the multifaceted solutions of ITP.

“We have content of our own. We have an aggregation layer where we’ll put competitors side-by-side. We offer best-in-class data deals. In short, our unique platform drives new levels in acquisition and retention through its multiplicity of games, bespoke localised strategies and a quick-fire integration which averages just under three weeks in duration. This allows our partners to plan globally but think locally, mitigating regulatory risk from the patchwork quilt of state-by-state regulation in North America to LatAm, Africa and APAC.

“Perhaps our biggest challenge is to make people understand that variety is our touchstone. You can’t just back one horse, lest it become a flogging horse. Instead, companies need to be rolling out a variety of different products. We want our registrants to come to see this Survivor game as a sticky and intuitive free-to-play product that reliably gets people coming back each week. It has that crucial repeat-engagement attribute where everyone can quickly see the value proposition.”

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Safer Gambling Week runs from 17-23 November 2025 and is all about educating the public on responsible betting and gaming and how to seek help if they think they may have a problem with gambling.

SGW also runs training courses and provides educational assets to the iGaming industry and other sectors, as well as schools and charities.

https://safergamblinguk.org/

Operator perspective

Midnite

“Safer Gambling Week is an important time for our industry to unite with the aim of promoting the importance of customers utilising the support available to them to stay in control. But to paraphrase the famous Dogs Trust campaign: Safer Gambling is for life, not just for Christmas.

“At Midnite, Safer Gambling is at the foundation of everything that we do all day, every day, year-round. We want our customers to have first-class experiences and bring them closer to the games they love, but we want them to do so in a responsible, safe and enjoyable manner.

“We’re proud of the way that we help players to stay in control with the tools, advice and support we offer, and Safer Gambling week is a great time to shout about it. We empower our players to make smart moves to set limits, to gamble safely and in moderation, and we’re working hard to innovate ways to help our players stay in control.” – Thomas Fearns, Head of Safer Gambling, Midnite.

Affiliate perspective

Quantum

“Safer Gambling Week is an important week for both the iGaming industry and the general public, and it’s important to help champion it where possible.

“As a marketing affiliate and comparison site, Quantum is often the first port of call for iGaming customers – which means we have a keen responsibility to make sure that we only market to the right audience. We put our data-driven technology to work to deliver high-quality, responsible gambling traffic to our partners.

“We believe in supporting a balanced approach where gambling remains what it should be: safe, enjoyable entertainment.” – Andrew Lee, COO, QiH Group.

Legal perspective

Poppleston Allen

“As a firm whose main focus is licensing across the UK, compliance is a daily topic of discussion at Poppleston Allen’s offices. We help clients stay within the Licensing Conditions and Codes of Practice and the licensing objectives, as well as staying abreast of hot topics, upcoming government consultations and the Gambling Commission’s latest statements.

“But in addition to the work for our clients, we are also personally passionate about safer gambling – it’s vital that we raise awareness of safer gambling and signpost the professional help and support services that are available to those who need it – ensuring the millions of people who enjoy gambling responsibly continue to do so in a safe environment.” – Richard Bradley, Lead Solicitor, Poppleston Allen.

Supplier perspective

Tugi Tark

“iGaming brings fun and entertainment to millions worldwide, but for some players, it can become more than occasional enjoyment. Protecting vulnerable players is a responsibility the industry shares.

“While in-person interaction is surely a fast way to pinpoint problematic patterns, most gambling takes place online, which means that our job is to create digital solutions to digital problems. As supporting players is what drives our company, Tugi Tark has built algorithms to catch problematic behaviour and language early.

“These aren’t the rigid systems of the past, where true issues pass undetected and safe, happy players get mistakenly caught up in a wide net. Tugi Tark’s AI Agents are intuitive and flexible. They work seamlessly alongside operators’ existing safeguards and support teams to identify player risk before it escalates.

“Building safer gambling digitally benefits all of us, and we’re pleased to participate in Safer Gambling Week 2025.” – Harpo Lilja, CEO, Tugi Tark.

Payments perspective

Paysecure

“Safety and security are fundamental to any payments journey, but it is a particular focus when that transaction is between igaming operators and their players.

“Payment orchestration enables operators to create safer playing environments without adding friction to the user experience. Through intelligent customer segmentation, for example, operators can identify trends and detect when players may be overreaching or playing beyond their usual limits. This depth of data-driven insight helps keep players protected while maintaining a seamless journey, mitigating additional checks or barriers to entry.

“Furthermore, operators using Paysecure’s orchestration platform benefit from our proprietary Trust Score system designed to flag potential fraud and identify unusual behavioural patterns in real time. This intelligence empowers operators to safeguard both their players and their own operations.” – Mike Peplow, Chief Operating Officer at Paysecure.

From $12 to $54,719: The Story of a Big Win at Betandyou!

Published

on

There are thousands of bets placed on Betandyou every single day. Some place small bets, some go big, and sometimes someone hits a win that stands out from everything else.

That’s exactly what happened this November – one of our players placed just $12 and hit a life-changing $54,719 payout!

What Happened Before the Big Win

It all started like any ordinary bet. Football filled the screens – Manchester, Barcelona, Milan, Porto.

The player with ID 6301********, a part of our community since June 2023, opened the Betandyou app and placed his usual pick. No big stake. No drama. Just a regular moment of excitement for the game.

The Four Predictions That Changed Everything

A $12 accumulator and four football matches. Most impressively, exact score predictions – something you don’t see every day and a true sign of confidence. And here’s how the night unfolded:

  • Manchester City – Bournemouth: 3–1
  • Barcelona – Elche: 3–1
  • Milan – Roma: 1–0
  • Porto – Braga: 2–1

One by one, the results started to fall into place. The first two games, perfect 3:1 calls. Then Milan held Roma to 1:0. And finally, Porto sealed it with a 2:1 win. Four matches. Four exact scores.

4560 Odds: A Moment You Can’t Predict

  • Total odds? 4560.
  • The payout? That’s $54,719!

When the final whistle blew, the numbers on the screen told a story we don’t see every day, the kind of win that makes your heart skip a beat and your hands tremble just a little before hitting “Check balance.” That’s the kind of moment every bettor dreams about, when the impossible suddenly becomes reality.

CEO Betandyou: Official Comment

“Wins like this always draw attention,” says the CEO of Betandyou. “But what excites us even more is the story behind it. Our players don’t just bet, they feel the game. They analyze, they take risks, they follow their passion. This win isn’t just luck; it’s the perfect mix of intuition, strategy, and a love for football. At Betandyou, we live for moments like these, because every big win starts with a small belief.”

More Than Just Numbers

This player has been with us for more than a year, and this time their loyalty, patience, and boldness paid off in the best possible way. It’s not really about the amount – it’s about that feeling when your choices turn into something real. When your screen lights up and you realize that yes, you just did that.

At Betandyou, that magic happens every day, sometimes quietly, sometimes spectacularly. But one thing is certain: there’s always another story waiting to be written.

So who knows? Maybe the next headline will be yours.
Stay in the game with Betandyou!
