The upcoming Moneymaker Main Event will take place at The Casino Aruba, and feature a guaranteed prize pool of $200,000

The Moneymaker Tour has announced a new partnership with The Caribbean Poker Series to host the first international Moneymaker Main Event in Aruba in October 4 – 6, 2024.

Set against the backdrop of Aruba’s stunning beaches and lively culture, The Moneymaker Tour will coincide with the $300,000 guaranteed Caribbean Poker Series, which will take place at The Casino Aruba at Hilton from September 26 to October 6, and offer players of all levels the chance to compete for prestigious prizes.

“A collaboration between Moneymaker Poker Tour and The Caribbean Poker Series will create a synergy that benefits both organizations, as well as poker players and fans around the world,” said Craig Evans, Managing Director of the Caribbean Poker Series.

The Moneymaker Tour Main Event will bring players three days of fun poker action from Friday, October 4 to Sunday, October 6, 2024. The $1,500 buy-in Main Event, will bolster a guaranteed prize pool of $200,000.

Established by 2003 WSOP Champion and ACR Team Pro, Chris Moneymaker and Moneymaker Tour Executive Manager, Tony Burns in 2023, the Moneymaker Tour was conceived as a way to provide poker players with the opportunity to experience their own ordinary to extraordinary moments, mirroring Moneymaker’s journey.

“Chris Moneymaker’s Main Event win in 2003 not only had an impact on poker in the United States, but around the globe. We are excited to partner with the Caribbean Poker Series to host our first international Moneymaker Tour Main Event”, said Tony Burns, Executive Manager.

The Moneymaker Tour, which saw its inaugural stop in May 2023, has been steadily increasing in popularity. Its second series of 2024 at Palm Beach Kennel Club in Florida, drew players from around the globe, where Pavlos Kasselouris seized victory in the $500,000 guaranteed Main Event, claiming $121,485 in prize money and the coveted Moneymaker crystal trophy.

The Tour’s current stop at Daytona Beach, Florida wraps up today, and after paying out over $600,000 in guaranteed prize pools.

Following the event at Daytona Beach, the Moneymaker Tour will return to Palm Beach Kennel Club in Florida from May 2-14, 2024.

Betsson has entered a new two-year partnership with Peristeri BC, a well-established Athens club with more than 50 years of history, competing in the top tier of Greek basketball and in European competitions. As part of the agreement, the team will now compete under its official name, Peristeri Betsson BC.

This collaboration reflects Betsson’s continued investment in Greek sport. With more than six decades of heritage and operations across 24 countries, Betsson’s strategy in Greece is centred around supporting historic clubs, strengthening local communities and contributing to the broader development of sport in the country. Following Mykonos Betsson and Aris Betsson, Peristeri Betsson BC represents the next step in building a network of sponsorships that carry meaningful cultural and community impact.

For Peristeri, the partnership provides strong strategic backing for the club’s competitive ambitions and its long-term mission to remain a reference point within Greek basketball. Both organisations share a commitment to professionalism, consistency and delivering high-quality experiences to fans. The collaboration will also include a suite of social impact initiatives focused on youth, education, equality and access to sport in Peristeri.

Andreas Nikolopoulos, Commercial Director at Betsson, said: “It is a great pleasure for all of us at Betsson to stand alongside a club with such a strong history and identity as Peristeri, a club that has been a reference point in Greek basketball for decades and continues to grow thanks to the steady and methodical work of its management. We do not view this merely as a sponsorship but as a strategic alliance. We share the same values with Peristeri, professionalism, consistency and a constant commitment to offering high-quality experiences to fans. We are committed to supporting them throughout this journey and we wish the team a season full of health, energy and success.”

Manos Kotsis, General Manager of Peristeri Betsson BC, said: “We are now officially Peristeri Betsson and will be for the next two years. Our approach is based on two pillars: reconnecting with our local community and bringing people back to the arena, and restoring Peristeri’s identity as a club that develops talent, whether local or international. We believe we have made meaningful progress over the past two years, but both goals require strong organisation, planning and method. We are delighted that Betsson is by our side supporting this effort and enabling us to move forward with greater confidence.”

Vindral Becomes Akamai ISV Partner for Low Latency Streaming

The Swedish live streaming platform Vindral has been serving clients within sports, auctions, iGaming and live events with ultra-low latency streaming for over 10 years. Recently awarded Silver in the prestigious SportsPro Media Awards, Vindral Live focuses particularly on configurable latency, with the possibility of going as low as 150 milliseconds glass-to-glass, while keeping viewers in sync.

An exciting partnership is now formed, where Vindral becomes one of the first 5 partners in Akamai’s ISV Catalyst programme. The aim is to combine the reach and infrastructural resilience of Akamai with the future-ready streaming stack provided by Vindral.

Both companies are active in the community that’s formed around Media over QUIC, with Vindral already serving clients end-to-end using this emerging standard.

“As our strategic direction is to always be future ready, the addition of Media over QUIC made sense for us and we made the decision to adopt it, and to work with the community in adding to it, almost 2 years ago. While it’s not the only protocol we support, the joint interest also expressed by Akamai is an energizer for our partnership,” said Ian Jefferson, Business Development at Vindral.

A point of great relevance is the relationship between software and infrastructure. No service is stronger than the underlying building blocks; Vindral Live comes with a promise of high performance, which requires robust infrastructure of the quality that Akamai is renowned for.

“The global reach and reliability of our cloud is best demonstrated through performant applications built on top of it. Vindral, as a strong player in the live streaming space, is a great match for us since deterministic latency, and low latency, are highly attractive characteristics that showcase what can be achieved on our platform,” said Kevin Murray, Strategic Partnerships at Akamai.
