Fernando Vieira is leaving the executive presidency of the institution to pursue a new professional opportunity in another sector. The association has already started the process of selecting Fernando’s successor, and during this transition period, André Gelfi, current director, board member and one of the founders of the entity, will serve as interim president. During his tenure, Fernando was one of the most active voices in consolidating the regulated betting sector in Brazil, helping to shape the public debate, expanding the responsible gaming agenda and leading the fight against the illegal market, which still represents a large portion of activity in the country.

BetMGM Partners with Fremantle to Launch New “The Price is Right” Game

Published

BetMGM and Fremantle, a world leader in creating, producing and distributing entertainment content, announced the introduction of “The Lion’s Share,” a new pricing game for “The Price is Right,” television’s longest-consecutive running game show. BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, will sponsor the game throughout the show’s 54th season. “The Lion’s Share” is the first custom-branded game in the show’s history and will debut Monday, Sept. 22 in the premiere episode on CBS.

“BetMGM is always looking for ways to create legendary moments. This collaboration combines the legacy of an iconic gameshow with the excitement of the BetMGM brand. The rarity of a new pricing game and the opportunity for players to win one of the largest prizes in the show’s history reflects BetMGM’s focus on bringing a world of unmatched entertainment to our players,” Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM, said.

“The Lion’s Share” game was created as part of the partnership between BetMGM and Fremantle and is the first new pricing game to be added to the show since 2021. Contestants will have an opportunity to win up to $500,000 in cash, cars, trips, and prizes. The game begins with a challenge, where players judge if the prices of everyday items are correct. Each right answer earns them a ball, for a maximum of five. They then step into a wind tunnel chamber to collect the number of balls they’ve earned, with each ball corresponding to a particular prize, or possibly a “Lose It All” option. Contestants reveal their prizes one at a time or may stop at any point to keep what they’ve won.

“It’s an exciting moment when a new game is added. Partnering with BetMGM, a brand known for innovation in games and entertainment, is the perfect collaboration. We look forward to bringing a fresh energy to a timeless format, while honoring the iconic gameplay fans know and love,” Suzanne Lopez, COO of Fremantle, said.

In January 2025, BetMGM announced a multi-year agreement with Fremantle that secured the intellectual property rights for iconic game shows “The Price is Right” and “Family Feud” for slots, table games and non-traditional casino games. The Price is Right Big Wheel Bonus is now available exclusively at BetMGM Casino platforms. The Price is Right Fortune Pick and The Price is Right Gold Blitz Ultimate are scheduled to debut in September. Other titles scheduled during the fall include Cliff Hangers, Plinko, The Big Wheel, and Pathfinder. In addition, a “Lion’s Share” online casino game is in development with a planned 2026 release.

MGM Resorts International and BetMGM announced that they are once again partnering with the American Gaming Association (AGA) to promote Responsible Gaming Education Month (RGEM 2025) this September.

For the third consecutive year, GameSense messaging will appear at select NFL stadiums on LED ribbons—including one new venue this upcoming football season. Also new for the 2025 season, these messages will be featured prominently on stadium scoreboards during pre-game activities and also within gameday magazines. GameSense is an industry-leading responsible gaming program first developed and licensed to MGM Resorts in 2017 by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC). The program focuses on positive, transparent, and proactive engagements with guests and customers about how to gamble responsibly.

GameSense messaging will be promoted at the following stadiums:

• Acrisure Stadium (Pittsburgh Steelers)

• Empower Field at Mile High (Denver Broncos)

• Ford Field (Detroit Lions)

• GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium (Kansas City Chiefs)

• Lincoln Financial Field (Philadelphia Eagles)

• M&T Bank Stadium (Baltimore Ravens)

• MetLife Stadium (New York Jets)

• Nissan Stadium (Tennessee Titans)

• State Farm Stadium (Arizona Cardinals)

“Placing GameSense in league stadiums gives us direct access to millions of fans each week. It’s a powerful platform to promote public awareness and amplify our company’s commitment to provide a safe and informed gambling experience,” said Rhea Loney, Chief Compliance Officer at BetMGM.

In September, GameSense and the AGA’s Play Smart from the Start messaging will reach guests via digital platforms, retail sportsbooks, Las Vegas marquees, and the new MGM Grand Live Dealer studio. BetMGM Sportsbook messaging will also remind players to “take a time-out” and “budget before you bet,” with QR codes linking to responsible gaming resources.

Trained GameSense Advisors will continue supporting guests at BetMGM Sportsbooks and MGM Rewards desks nationwide. MGM Resorts has now certified over 1900 employees through the GameSense Advisor program, while BetMGM has continued its partnership with EPIC Global Solutions to deliver lived–experience training to all employees.

Also, coinciding with RGEM 2025, MGM Resorts announced a $250,000 contribution to the International Center for Responsible Gaming. This donation will support independent, peer–reviewed research that advances best practices aimed at supporting casino employees and player protection strategies.

Stephen Martino, SVP and Chief Compliance Officer at MGM Resorts, said: “Investing in our team members through extensive training and scientific research sets higher operational standards and elevates the guest experience. It also supports the long-term sustainability of our business and the communities where we operate.”

Building on that commitment, both MGM Resorts and BetMGM continue to support the AGA’s “Have A Game Plan. Bet Responsibly.” public-service campaign, which educates both new and experienced sports bettors on safe wagering practices and choosing licensed operators in regulated markets.
