Chinese New Year
PG Soft Kicks Off Chinese New Year by Launching Fortune Horse
PG Soft, a leading digital mobile games developer, is marking Chinese New Year by enhancing its highly popular Fortune series with the launch of Fortune Horse.
The Fortune Horse is a 5×3 game that races quickly through a lively, neon-lit skyline influenced by bustling Asian food markets and lively street celebrations. The Wild symbol takes the form of a stylish red supercar adorned with luxurious gold decals that exude opulence.
When players observe that all symbols on the reels create a winning combination, the total will be increased by 10x. The famous Fortune Horse Feature can launch out of the stalls at any moment while the reels are spinning. When this occurs, all of the reels rotate once more to display the identical symbol.
When the Fortune Horse symbol appears completely on the reels, players are granted three Bonus Spins, unlocking opportunities for even higher winnings.
The Fortune series ranks among PG Soft’s top offerings, especially well-regarded in South America, particularly in the regulated Brazilian market.
PG Soft’s spokesperson commented: “Fortune Horse marks another exciting extension of our Fortune series, and we’re thrilled to bring it to players just in time for Chinese New Year. The Golden Stallion blazes a golden trail inspired by luck, speed, and unstoppable fortune. The challenge is to ride along as far as one can to top the podium in the race to wealth.”

PGA TOUR, DraftKings, ESPN launch PGA TOUR LIVE Betcast, the first all-day, watch-and-bet experience for golf fans
A new era has arrived for golf bettors, as the PGA TOUR and ESPN are doubling sports betting coverage for the 2026 PGA TOUR Season with a first-of-its-kind watch-and-bet experience from sunup to sundown.
PGA TOUR LIVE Betcast presented by DraftKings will air on ESPN during 12 marquee PGA TOUR events throughout the year, beginning with this week’s WM Phoenix Open, Feb. 5-8 at TPC Scottsdale.
The Betcast at each event will air more than eight hours during each of the four days of play on the ESPN App, alongside the Main Feed, Featured Group and Featured Hole streams. With more than 400 hours in total across the 2026 PGA TOUR Season, the Betcast will feature golf-related betting discussion, live betting analysis, upcoming previews, tournament features (tournament winner, matchups, etc.) and more.
PGA TOUR LIVE Betcast, which debuted in the 2025 season with 50 hours of coverage across six events, is now presented by DraftKings. The expanded coverage brings fans interested in betting content more of the coverage they’re looking for, complete with detailed insights and informed analysis.
Jonathan Coachman will serve as host, joined by Matt Every and Michael Collins as the show’s analysts. Graham DeLaet, Jeff Eisenband, Steve Scott and Kevin Sylvester will offer additional hosting and analyst support, while Rick Gehman will contribute across the betting feeds throughout the season. Additional talent pending on a tournament-by-tournament basis.
Set to premiere this Thursday, Feb. 5, with the first round of the WM Phoenix Open, the Betcast will be available to fans throughout the 2026 PGA TOUR Season, continuing with The Genesis Invitational at The Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades and concluding with the season-ending TOUR Championship at East Lake Golf Club.
Scott Warfield, PGA TOUR Vice President, Gaming, said, “The PGA TOUR is pleased to present more than 400 hours of live betting coverage in 2026 alongside our collaborators at ESPN and DraftKings. Building on the success of last year’s feed, we are excited to further expand this season with the support of DraftKings and its world-class golf product, as fans will have a host of new betting markets and storylines to follow as they watch along with the broadcast.”
“Our collaboration with the PGA TOUR and ESPN reflects a shared, forward-looking approach to fan engagement,” said Stephanie Sherman, Chief Marketing Officer, DraftKings. “For those who see betting as part of their entertainment experience, by integrating our industry-leading golf offerings into PGA TOUR LIVE Betcast, we’re creating a more immersive, real-time way to follow the action from the first tee shot to the final putt, while fostering a sense of connection and community around the sport.”
Said John Suchenski, Sr. Director, Programming & Acquisitions at ESPN: “At ESPN, we want to provide fans with more access, insight and ways to connect with sports. The Betcast gives fans another option to engage with PGA TOUR LIVE and be an attraction to those who desire alternative ways to traditional feeds. We’re always discussing new and innovative approaches to golf coverage with the PGA TOUR, and these shows are the newest evolution of those efforts.”
DraftKings, ESPN and the PGA TOUR take responsible gaming seriously by promoting educational information and tools to help players enjoy sports betting responsibly.
