Stakelogic unites with bet365 in the Netherlands

Developer’s in-demand classic slots and modern video slots now available to Dutch players at tier one operator
Stakelogic, one of the most in-demand casino content providers in the world, continues to establish itself as the leading provider of classic slots and modern video slots in the Dutch market after partnering with bet365.
Under the deal, the operator powerhouse will stock its game lobby with Stakelogic’s full suite of slots that are proven in the market and have quickly become some of the most spun titles in the Netherlands since it opened back in October last year.
The developer’s classic slots have performed particularly well with games such as Classic Joker 5 Reels and Hot Joker topping the charts. Stakelogic’s video slots have also been a hit with players and especially titles such as Candyways Bonanza Megaways 2 and Bandits Thunder Link.
Each of the developer’s games has been designed to deliver thrilling gameplay that puts players on the edge of their seat with every spin.
The deal allows bet365 to offer its players in the Netherlands even more quality online casino content, delivering a superior player experience and standing out from its rivals.
Olga Bajela, CCO at Stakelogic, said: “Our games have taken the Dutch market by storm and this deal with bet365, one of the biggest operators in the world, is a testament to their quality and that they are now “must-have” titles for operators targeting the market.
Our classic slots in particular have been a big hit with players in the Dutch market and we are thrilled to be helping bet365 grow its classic portfolio with our games. This is a great deal for us, for bet365 and most importantly for its players.”

COUNTDOWN BEGINS FOR ACR POKER’S MASSIVE DUAL VENOM TOURNEYS WITH $10 MILLION GUARANTEED AND HUGE BOUNTIES

$8 Million NLH and $2 Million PLO events start this weekend, with top bounty prizes of $500,000 and $200,000 respectively
ACR Poker is turning up the heat this Sunday with the return of its flagship Dual Venom tournaments, featuring a combined $10 million guaranteed and massive mystery bounties.
The action kicks off with the first of five Day 1 flights for the $8 million NLH and $2 million PLO Mystery Bounty Venoms, starting this Sunday at 12:05pm ET. Players can build momentum by combining their stacks ahead of Day 2 on Monday, August 25th at 1:05pm ET, where all remaining players will already be in the money. Those who make it to the Final Table will battle for the Venom titles on Tuesday, August 26th at 4:05pm ET.
Alongside massive guarantees, both events boast huge bounties. In the Venom NLH, knocking out just one opponent could unlock a top bounty of $500,000, with the tourney winner projected to take home around $600,000. The Venom PLO, which ties ACR Poker’s biggest Omaha tourney ever, offers a $200,000 top bounty and an estimated $200,000 top prize for the champion. Every knockout in both tourneys earns players a minimum bounty of $5,000.
“Big bounties, massive guarantees – the Dual Mystery Bounty Venom tourneys are coming in hot,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “The action kicks off this Sunday, so don’t miss out. Satellites start at just $0, so players of all bankrolls can take a shot. Let’s make it a big one – see you at the tables.”
While the buy-in for both tournaments is $2,650, players can still qualify for much less. Hundreds of low-cost qualifiers are up for grabs starting from $0 via Venom Fever Satellites. Plus, the Venom Vault and the Poison Path offer players more chances to unlock $2,650 Venom tickets.
Fans can tune in to watch the Venom NLH Day 1A action on ACR Poker’s Twitch channel this Sunday, featuring ACR Pros Chris Moneymaker, Rob Kuhn and Jon Pardy. The Final Table live stream follows on Tuesday, August 26th.
For more Mystery Bounty action, players can join ACR Poker’s new Daily Mystery Bounty tournaments for a shot at Mystery Bounty Chests packed with surprise rewards, with top bounties worth up to 10% of the prize pool.
