Starting from June, the SKS365 group’s sports information portal will be ‘on air’ on the tv channel with “ad hoc” video clips and odds comparison.
All the content will be also available on Sportitalia app

The partnership between Planet Entertainment – a SKS365 group company – and Sportitalia, the tv channel dedicated to sport, available on the 60 Italian digital channel – goes one step further. Thanks to the new agreement – effective from June 2022 until June 2023 – new content, analyses, statistics and football trivia powered by Planetwin365.News will be broadcasted on Sportitalia Tv.

The daily appointment (from Monday to Friday) will be scheduled at 8.55 pm, with the “Focus on” video-pills. Curiosities and statistics about the match of the week will be provided by Planetwin365.News editorial staff. These contents will also be sent via “push notification” on the Sportitalia app, which has reached 800,000 downloads so far.

The agreement also includes a space during the “Talk e Live” and “SportitaliaMercato” tv shows. Alongside the editorial content there will be room also for advertising: the Planetwin365.News banner will be present during the 150 championship and Coppa Italia Primavera matches, an exclusive of Sportitalia. In addition, the agreement includes advertising campaigns starring the PlanetPay365 multi-service platform, starting with three promotional videos made in collaboration with ACF Fiorentina.

“We are delighted to expand our agreement with such a prestigious partner like Sportitalia. This renewed synergy will allow us to spread new sports content and other curiosities to all football fans and beyond”, commented Anniina Rantala, Marketing Director at SKS365. “The goal for the upcoming months is to get even closer to the fans and to a broader audience through the strong connection with sport. This will go along the enhancement of our product portfolio, from value- added services to information, in order to offer more and more global level of entertainment”.

“The agreement between Sportitalia and Planet Entertainment allows us to strengthen the collaboration that started last season and to enhance Planetwin365.News’ content through tv programs created by our editorial staff and tailored for our partner”, commented Michele Criscitello, CEO of Sportitalia. “Our network is chosen by the brands operating in sports entertainment, as it is the only one that manages to create a tailored strategy for each operator through daily and frequent contact with the audience, allowing the partners to reach their positioning and branding objectives”.

“I had such a great time at the PartyPoker Tour Birmingham. The atmosphere, the people and the passion for the game were incredible. I’m really excited to be joining the PartyPoker team for the rest of the year, getting involved at the live events, meeting players and seeing where the cards take me,” Bellew said.

Arizona regulator orders five operators to stop alleged illegal gambling activity

Cease-and-desist letters cite alleged felonies and underage access tied to BetOpenly, Bookmaker, Club WPT Online Poker, Kutt Inc., and Raffle Creator.

The Arizona Department of Gaming said it has issued cease-and-desist orders to five online platforms—BetOpenly, Bookmaker, Club WPT Online Poker, Kutt Inc., and Raffle Creator—after investigations that the Department says involved alleged illegal gambling activity and underage access in Arizona.

In its announcement, the Department said each enforcement action alleges conduct giving rise to three felonies under Arizona law: promotion of gambling, illegal control of an enterprise, and money laundering. The agency cited Arizona’s prohibition on gambling unless specifically authorized (Ariz. Rev. Stat. Tit. 13, Ch. 33) and said the legal gambling age in the state is 21.

“Arizona is taking decisive action against illegal gambling operators that put Arizonans at risk,” said Jackie Johnson, Department Director. “Our top priority is protecting Arizonans and I’m grateful for the efforts of our intelligence unit led by Chief Law Enforcement Officer Doug Jensen to do just that. Through these cease-and-desist orders we are putting operators on notice: their conduct runs contrary to Arizona law and they must stop promoting illegal gambling.”

The Department’s letters describe different alleged violations by operator. For BetOpenly, the Department said peer-to-peer gambling rules prohibit third-party benefit, and alleged the platform benefited via a commission structure while enabling event wagering and daily fantasy sports contests without the required state licenses, including availability to underage Arizonans. For Bookmaker, the Department said its investigation found wagering on horse racing, casino games, and sports betting without an event wagering license or an advanced deposit wagering provider license, adding that online casino games are not legal in Arizona.

For Club WPT Online Poker, the Department alleged the platform enabled individuals under 21 in Arizona to enter pay-to-play online poker tournaments for prizes while using deceptive “no purchase necessary” language; the Department said online poker is illegal in Arizona. For Kutt Inc., the Department said Arizona “social” gambling prohibits third-party benefit and directed the operator to stop allowing Arizona users to deposit money and wager on sports, politics, pop culture, and casino-style games. For Raffle Creator, the Department said the operator did not meet requirements that allow Arizona nonprofits to conduct lawful raffles and alleged it allowed people under 21 to purchase tickets for prize chances.

The Department said the notified entities are directed to immediately stop all gambling operations and activities in Arizona “whether through mobile applications, online, or otherwise,” and to cease any future illegal gambling in the state. It added that future actions may include criminal charges or civil action against entities, principals, and employees, and that operators “may be subject to a potential award of restitution” and forfeiture of monies acquired due to the alleged conduct.
