711 takes Stakelogic for a spin in the Netherlands
A landmark deal that sees Stakelogic’s full suite classic slots and live dealer titles designed specifically for Dutch players now available at 711!
Operators looking to engage players in the fast-growing Netherlands market continue to strike integration deals with in-demand developer Stakelogic, which has added 711 to its roster of partners in the country.
Stakelogic has a dedicated division tasked with developing games specifically for Dutch players, and these titles have gone on to become some of the most spun in the market. Most take the classic format but with gameplay taken to the next level through features such as Wilds, Multipliers and Free Spins.
Each captures the nostalgia of playing traditional slot machines with instantly recognisable fruit symbols including grapes, oranges, melons and cherries landing on the reels, as well as 7s, BARs and Bells.
Just some of the classic slots now available to players at 711.nl include Super Bonus Wild, Runner 8 Runner, Bonus Runner, Super 6 Timer and Mega Runner.
The partnership also includes a portfolio of live titles from Stakelogic Live, which has quickly emerged as the go-to provider of live dealer games.
Its portfolio offers titles across roulette, blackjack and gameshow, with tables set against striking backdrops and with highly trained dealers that make each player feel like a true VIP.
Games are streamed out of a branded dedicated studio located in Malta, allowing operators such as 711 to deliver a great live experience to players in the market.
Across both its slots and live dealer titles, Stakelogic has innovated through features such as Super Stake and Spin to Win.
Super Stake allows players to effectively double their bet to increase the chance of a bonus triggering and insane with combinations landing, while Spin to Win combines RNG gameplay with live dealer for the first time. It sees players spin a live prize wheel for the chance to win big.
Jose Simon, Commercial Director at Stakelogic, said: “We are the only developer that truly understands what Dutch players are looking for and, via a dedicated studio, delivers slots that not only meet but exceed expectations.
711 gets just how powerful our slots are at engaging players in the Netherlands, and this integration will allow it to pull further ahead of its rivals and keep its players coming back for more.”
Richard Walker, Head of Live Casino at Stakelogic Live, said: “Localisation is the key to authentic live content and our Netherlands studio allows us to deliver next-generation live dealer titles that hit the mark with Dutch players. It’s great to see 711 now offer this experience to its players and to further differentiate from the other casino brands in the market.”
Gilles De Backer, Chief Operating Officer at 711, added: “We have hit the ground running in the Netherlands but partnerships such as this with Stakelogic and Stakelogic Live allow us to continue to build momentum and deliver the online casino experiences our players are seeking.
This is a highly competitive market and one where player expectations are high. Content integrations like this with Stakelogic ensure that we deliver a superior experience to our players.”

EasyWin closes second seed round at $20m valuation
Real-money casual puzzle tournament startup says an EU private investor backed the April 2026 round.
EasyWin, a U.S.-based real-money gaming startup, said it has closed its second seed funding round at a $20 million valuation. The company announced the round in April 2026 and said it was backed by a private investor from the European Union.
The company previously closed its first seed round in December 2025 at a $15.5 million valuation. That round included funding from Velo Partners, Vladimir Nikolsky and several private angel investors.
EasyWin was founded by Ivan Leshkevich, a former executive at mobile game publisher and developer Mamboo Entertainment. The startup, which currently has a team of eight, says it has built a global tournament platform for casual puzzle games with cash prizes and operates across major markets.
Since launching in 2025, EasyWin reported 25% month-over-month growth in user spending and a 4.9 average user rating. It also said it has expanded into 12 countries with localized legal opinions and payment infrastructure, received PayPal approval for its MCC, and completed payments-stack integrations with global providers.
The company also said it has obtained GLI certification “confirming compliance with U.S. regulations for skill-based gaming products.” Leshkevich said: “In the long term, we aim to become a leading global skill-based gaming platform. To achieve this, we focus on a strong product USP and new AI-based dev tools.”

Plaza Hotel & Casino sets $250,000 Super Bingo event for July 3-5
Downtown Las Vegas property says the July Super Bingo will be its largest prize purse to date, with sessions on July 4-5.
Plaza Hotel & Casino will stage a $250,000 “Super Bingo” event in Las Vegas July 3-5, positioning it as a special edition tied to the nation’s 250th anniversary. The operator said the prize pool is the largest in the series’ history.
“The Plaza will be celebrating its 55th anniversary and the 250th anniversary of our great country in July, so it is only fitting that we make our Super Bingo event that month our biggest and best ever,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Our Super Bingo events have always drawn a packed crowd to our convention space, and we anticipate the July event to sell out quickly.”
According to the Plaza, Super Bingo draws nearly 1,000 attendees, including visitors traveling from Hawaii and Canada. For the July edition, bingo-only registration is set at $250 per person for gameplay on Saturday, July 4 and Sunday, July 5. The Plaza is also offering an optional five-night hotel package priced at $200 per person, with no resort fee, for check-in July 2 and check-out July 6.
The Plaza outlined the payout structure as 20 games paying $1,999 each day, plus a daily “super coverall” of $60,000, second place of $15,000, and third place of $10,020. The casino said prizes will be paid in cash and players must be present to win.
Outside of the special event, the Plaza said its bingo room runs six daily sessions at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m., 5 p.m., 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. and is located two floors above the main casino.
