The Delhi police arrested nearly 3502 people involved in a total of 1489 organised and unorganised betting rackets in the city this year, according to the data available till May 15. A large number of these rackets were believed to have been involved in betting on the IPL, whose 15th season came to a close on Sunday. All the arrested were booked under the Delhi Public Gambling Act.

A glance at the Delhi police’s data on betting rackets for the past few years suggests a constant decline in the number of such rackets operating in the Capital. In 2021, a total of 2011 cases of gambling were reported while 5776 persons were held. In 2020, 2414 betting rackets were busted for which 6291 people were arrested. In 2019, 2339 cases were reported for which 8009 persons were held.

Senior police officers said that such betting rackets operate both on a small scale, in which petty criminals with few or no criminal history are involved, as well as on a larger scale, which are better planned and are based on networked betting, in several persons in different cities and states are connected through call where bids are discussed throughout the match.

“Small-scale betting rackets involve mostly people like autorickshaw drivers, truck drivers, street vendors, etc. They are mostly caught from jhuggi jhopri clusters where our teams are stationed to check on any such illicit activities. Most police stations have specialised cells to act on tip-offs received regarding people carrying out betting,” a senior police officer said.

Gambling harm prevention charity BetBlocker has today announced that it has supported a quarter of a million unique active users this year.

BetBlocker, which provides blocking software to help people manage or restrict their access to online gambling services, is unique in adopting a charitable model for this type of support, and facilitating users accessing protection both free of charge and anonymously.

This year has seen an explosion in uptake of the service, with strong uptake globally, with Brazil, the UK, the US, Romania, Canada, Kenya and South Africa showing the highest levels of engagement.

BetBlocker’s Founder and Managing Trustee, Duncan Garvie had this to say:

“We invested a lot in 2024 improving our data, to allow us to communicate accurately the performance of our project to our supporters, and to build confidence via transparency. That’s meant ensuring that our data is exactly what we say it is and a focus on making our data easy to understand. We don’t talk about downloads. The number would be higher, but far less meaningful. When we talk about “active users” it means “users with an active BetBlocker restriction in 2025.”

I’ve been blown away by the rate of growth that BetBlocker has seen this year. We would never have imagined that this type of growth was possible at the start of the year, but the rapid and sustained upward trend strongly evidences that there is a huge need for free and anonymous support for gambling harm.

That uptake is distributed so broadly across the globe also demonstrates how universal the need for support managing access to online gambling services is in the digital age.”

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has expanded its successful Mythology series with the launch of Mega Zeus Hold & Hit 3×3.

Set among the golden columns of Mount Olympus, Mega Zeus transports players to the realm of the mighty god of thunder. With Zeus himself sitting high above the reels, every spin ripples with energy and anticipation, carrying the potential for electrifying wins.

The temple of the gods acts as the Wild symbol and substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus and Bonus Collect. Mega Zeus Hold & Hit 3×3 has two Special Bonus symbols, the Bonus only lands on reels one and three, while the Bonus Collect lands just on reel two.

Players landing the Bonus Collect along with one or more Bonus symbols, will trigger the Bonus game. The triggering symbols remain locked during the move to the Bonus Game, which starts with three spins. During the feature, only Bonus symbols and Bonus Collect symbols can appear. Each spin has the chance to award multipliers ranging from x1, x2, x5, x7, x10, and x15, as well as any of the in-game jackpots.

Each time a Bonus symbol lands, it is collected by all Bonus Collect symbols, disappearing from the reels while its value tops up the Bonus Collect symbol’s total. Each Bonus Symbol or Bonus Collect symbol refills the spin counter to three. The round ends after three winless spins occur or when the total collected winnings reach the maximum x5000 multiplier.

Grand, Major, Minor and Mini in game Jackpot symbols can appear during the game and will trigger the corresponding Jackpot.

The Bonus Blast Feature may also activate randomly, adding extra Bonus and Bonus Collect symbols to the reels to help trigger the Bonus Game.

A Bonus Collect symbol with one or more Bonus symbols, including Jackpot symbols, but not launching the Bonus Game will collect the values and add to the total win.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Mega Zeus is an almighty experience that unites electrifying features, a mythological atmosphere, and stunning visuals. It perfectly showcases our studio’s creative power and ability to deliver truly godlike entertainment.”
