To celebrate the greatest tournament of the year, BetMGM is giving customers a stake in an underdog with a free-to-play $100,000 Sleeper Sixteen Contest available through the mobile app.
“March is here and we’re preparing for the landmark tournament,” said BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt. “BetMGM will be front-and-center of the action elevating the experience for our fans with unique contests and world-class destinations across the country to catch the games.”
- Making History: This year’s tournament will have its place in the record books. Arizona is home to the BetMGM Sportsbook at State Farm Stadium is a 17,000-square-foot entertainment destination with state-of-the-art sportsbook amenities including giant video walls, dozens of wagering kiosks and a world-class bar and grill. Additionally, BetMGM projects 2024 to be the most bet on tournament in company history having recently expanded to North Carolina marking its 29th market in North America.
- BetMGM’s $100,000 Sleeper Sixteen Contest: Now that the bracket is set, all BetMGM players can play a free Sleeper Sixteen game on the mobile app. Players will spin a wheel to be assigned a team in the tournament that is a 10 through a 16 seed. If their team is one of the final 16 teams left in the tournament, the player will split $100,000 in bonus bets, divvied up among other users with that team. Contest not available in New York, Nevada or Puerto Rico.
- March Matchups 64% Boost Pack: Starting Wednesday, March 20, all BetMGM customers will receive a Boost Pack, containing three unique tokens to boost their favorite bets in the Round of 64.

- Inside the Lines: The following intel from the BetMGM trading team highlights the most notable early action across the country.
- Fan Favorite to Win: Kentucky, North Carolina and UConn are the most bet teams in the tournament to win it all. Michael Ranftle, Senior Trader at BetMGM, said, “Kentucky is our biggest liability to win the NCAA Tournament. However, with the recent launch of legal sports betting in North Carolina, the Tar Heels are becoming a big loser for the sportsbook with their hometown fans believing in them. Both blue bloods getting knocked out of the bracket early would be great for BetMGM.”

Omnigame celebrates win at SBC Awards Europe

Omnigame, the full-service iGaming business, is celebrating industry recognition after being awarded Gaming Mechanic/Feature of the Year at the SBC Awards Europe.
Hosted at the Hilton Malta, the awards recognised the achievements of the very best operators, affiliates, suppliers, payment providers, and game developers across the European betting and gaming industry.
Omnigame’s creative twist on traditional slot machines, its ‘Wheels of Reels’ mechanic, incorporates ‘wheels’ of differing lengths rather than the traditional rectangular matrix. The innovative spinning mechanic provided a new approach to slot gaming, allowing Omnigame to stand apart from its competition in the category.
The creativity of the mechanic has seen Stream of Luck become one of the most popular games in the Omnigame portfolio.
Peter Weinreich, CEO of Omnigame, said: “Receiving the award that highlights the innovative nature of our ‘Wheels of Reels’ mechanic at the SBC Awards Europe is a massive credit to the whole team at Omnigame. We are incredibly proud of our achievement, which has provided a fresh take on the traditional slot experience.
