Twelve of their most popular table games to be hosted on ODDSworks’ BETguard Remote Game Server

ODDSworks is proud to announce that an agreement has been finalized that will bring 12 of the most popular casino-proven table games in the Felt portfolio to the BETguard Remote Game Server. The Felt portfolio coming to OddsWorks consists of eight blackjack side bet games, including Perfect PairsTM, 21+3TM and Lucky LuckyTM; three poker variants including Caribbean Stud poker TM and Texas Hold’em bonus poker TM, and Felt’s unique Double Ball Roulette TM.

ODDSworks President Larry DeMar said he believes the move is an exciting step for both companies.

Felt’s games have gained a global following and have a proven track record within land-based casinos,” he said. “Combining classic Blackjack, Poker and Roulette titles with the world’s most popular side bets creates the most exciting and truly unique table game experience found anywhere online.”

Felt’s CEO John Parsonage added, “Felt is dedicated to the provision of best-in-class casino table games to the online gaming world. Felt games are renowned worldwide and have a proven track record within land-based and online casinos.” We can’t wait to bring them online in the US.

“With Felt, customers see side bets that fully engage players by providing higher win frequencies as well as larger potential rewards,” DeMar added. “These benefits in return provide longer playing times, increased bet volume and can generate up to a 40 percent higher return to the operator over standard table games. I am delighted to see what together we can do.”

Felt’s game interfaces incorporate the authentic look of cards and chips with functional features.

Best yet, he said they are fully mobile-ready today and will be live this year.

DeMar also believes the deal “primes the well” for future content.

AGCO Fines Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto $350,000 for Serious Regulatory Violations Linked to Impromptu After-Party on Gaming Floor

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has issued monetary penalties totaling $350,000 against Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto for multiple violations of provincial gaming standards. The penalties follow an impromptu after-party that was permitted to take place in the pre-dawn hours directly on the casino’s gaming floor.

On September 27, 2024, an electronic dance music event attended by thousands of people was hosted in the theatre adjacent to the casino at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto. The event was marked by widespread intoxication, disorderly behavior, and numerous criminal and medical incidents – both inside and outside the venue – including alleged assaults, drug overdoses, and acts of public indecency. Although paid duty officers were present, additional police and emergency services were required to manage the situation.

In the midst of this high-risk environment, casino management approved an unscheduled request by the performing artist to host an after-party on the active gaming floor. The artist and more than 400 guests were permitted onto the gaming floor where the artist was allowed to perform amidst operational table games and gaming machines – without any prior risk assessment or planning.

As a result, security personnel were unable to effectively control the casino floor, including witness reports that an attendee was seen climbing onto slot machines. Failure to maintain appropriate control compromises the security, safety, and integrity of the casino floor. Following the conclusion of the event, the operator failed to promptly report these incidents to the AGCO as required.

Based on the findings of its review, the AGCO’s Registrar has issued an Order of Monetary Penalty (OMP) totaling $350,000 against Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto. These penalties address critical failures in their operations, incident reporting, employee training, and the management of disturbances.

A gaming operator served with an OMP has 15 days to appeal the Registrar’s decision to the Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT), an adjudicative tribunal that is part of Tribunals Ontario and independent of the AGCO.

“Casino operators have a fundamental duty to control their gaming environment. Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto’s lapses in this incident compromised the safety of patrons and the security and integrity of the gaming floor,” Dr. Karin Schnarr, Chief Executive Officer and Registrar of AGCO, said.
