World’s leading B2B marketplace facilitates new partnership that will see full suite of Platipus titles added to popular iGaming platform provider’s library Monotech
Betbazar, the disruptive company behind the industry’s leading B2B worldwide iGaming marketplace, has facilitated another successful software partnership after it announced that Monotech has agreed to add to its platform a full suite of Platipus slots.
Betbazar established itself as the go-to online destination for companies looking to acquire third-party sports, casino and data services. Among its extensive product line-up, the company boasts a wide selection of state-of-the-art slots as Platipus and live casino games – and it’s the former that caught the eye of Monotech.
Drawn in by the idea of being able to offer innovative and exciting Platipus content on its numerous platforms worldwide, Monotech opted to take on the studio’s full range of 121 – games including 29 jackpot titles.
As a result, the company will now be able to offer top titles like the Native American-themed Spirits of the Prairies and the Incan-inspired Mystery Stones to all of its B2C partners, with this giving Monotech clients an even greater range of gaming options that they can offer to customers.
Of course, with the Betbazar team being responsible for the logistics of the sale, all Platipus titles have now been added to the Monotech game library and will be available to partners immediately, with the platform also benefiting from ongoing customer support as part of the deal.
Slava Chernenko, Head of Commercial & Partnerships at Monotech, said: “As a young company seeking to find the best answers to clients’ B2C needs, Monotech is always on the lookout for exciting products that we can add to our line-up in order to provide a more comprehensive solution to our partners.
“Being able to use an industry-leading marketplace like BETBAZAR where some of the industry’s most innovative service providers sit under one digital roof makes this process incredibly easy and we’re delighted to have discovered Platipus through them. We’re now really looking forward to offering the studio’s games to our customers and think they’ll go on to be a big hit with players.”
Stanislav Mykhailov, CCO at Platipus, said: “For an independent software provider like Platipus, it’s crucial to be able to connect with operators who are interested in your product – and being on BETBAZAR’s B2B worldwide iGaming marketplace makes the whole process incredibly simple.
“Thanks to their sophisticated online hub that brings content providers and customers together, we were able to showcase our games to Monotech and they really liked what they saw. With our full suite of slots now added to their library, Monotech clients will have more choice over the content they offer and we can’t wait to see how our games are received by players”.
Gordon Shkuropat, Business Development Manager at BETBAZAR, said: “We’re really happy to have facilitated the deal between Monotech and Platipus through our industry-leading B2B worldwide iGaming marketplace and believe the new partnership will be incredibly beneficial to everyone involved.
“The ease with which Monotech were able to browse our range of innovative products and select the one that best suits their business needs is testament to the efficiency of our marketplace – and with one seamless integration, all Platipus titles have already been added to their casino library.”

BetMGM Offers Interstate Online Poker, Merges New Jersey and Michigan Markets
BetMGM Poker has become the third US operator to offer multi-state online poker. The company has merged its player pools in Michigan and New Jersey. Both states are a part of the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA), which allows online poker networks to share liquidity and players in participating markets. The two-state network went live Wednesday afternoon after morning maintenance.
BetMGM VP of Gaming, Angust Nisbet, said: “This is a landmark day for our poker product as we combine player pools in select markets. With the introduction of shared liquidity, we’ve listened to players’ desire for more games and larger prize pools. By showcasing our best-in-class omnichannel experience – spanning property, sports betting and online casino – we’re committed to providing an unparalleled poker experience for our players.”
Michigan is the newest operational online poker market, passing legislation in 2020 and launching in early 2021. This was more than seven years after New Jersey online poker went live in November 2013.
New Jersey joined MSIGA in 2017, two years after Nevada and Delaware entered into the agreement. Michigan joined in 2022, a relatively short timeframe compared to the states preceding it.
Michigan’s entrance has fast-tracked interstate online poker compared to the slow progress made before.
Its first multi-state venture came on Jan. 1, 2023, when PokerStars Michigan combined its New Jersey and Michigan markets. WSOP Michigan became part of a three-state agreement with New Jersey and Nevada in May 2024, and BetMGM marks the state’s third major operator joining forces across state lines.
BetMGM Poker will create a more prominent player pool for New Jersey and Michigan online poker players. By nature, this will result in larger tournament prize pools for both states. It will also add extra competition for the other two multi-state sites in the two markets.

Petersburg, Virginia Residents Vote Yes! for Live! Casino Resort
The citizens of Petersburg have spoken, and the historic casino referendum has passed with overwhelming support of over 80% of Petersburg residents voting in favor of the $1.4 billion Live! Casino Resort project, marking the highest support for a casino referendum in Virginia history. This marks a monumental step forward for the Petersburg community, as the approval paves the way for the development of a world-class casino and entertainment destination that promises to revitalize the local economy, create jobs, and invest in much-needed community services.
Live! Casino Resort, which will be codeveloped by The Cordish Companies and Bruce Smith Enterprise, is projected to bring significant economic benefits to the region. This development will include not only gaming and entertainment options but also restaurants, hotels, and event spaces, making Petersburg a destination for tourism and entertainment in Virginia. Construction will commence after the vote is certified and all required approvals are received, with an anticipated opening date of the initial first phase casino in 2026.
“We are deeply gratified by the community’s affirmation of this project and very hopeful about the meaningful impact it will have on the city’s future. The casino will not only create good-paying jobs for our residents but will also attract visitors statewide and beyond, stimulating local businesses and in turn producing an overall ripple effect of economic growth. Now that the voters have spoken, we look forward to working with the City of Petersburg and the Virginia Lottery to secure all of the necessary permitting, licensing and regulatory approvals for this project to move forward,” said Bruce Smith, Owner of Bruce Smith Enterprise, Pro Football Hall of Fame Member, Developer and Community Leader, and codeveloper of the planned Live! Casino Resort in Petersburg.
The casino project is part of a larger revitalization plan for Petersburg, which has faced economic challenges in recent years. This initiative, alongside other investments in infrastructure and local businesses, will position the city for long-term growth and success.
“The approval of the destination resort and casino in Petersburg marks a significant milestone for our City. Voter approval follows a three-year journey on this transformative project that will bring positive change to Petersburg for generations. This destination resort, casino, retail, and residential development will be the largest economic and tourism project in Petersburg’s history. City Council and administration look forward to working with The Cordish Companies and Bruce Smith Enterprise to positively impact our community and its prosperity,” said Mayor Sam Parham, City of Petersburg, VA.
Live! Casino Resort will be a catalyst for change and significant urban development, transforming the City through the creation of a thriving entertainment and hospitality destination. The project will set a new standard for gaming, hotels, and entertainment in the Commonwealth, and serve as a new world-class attraction for Petersburg and the greater Central Virginia region. The project site, ideally situated at the intersection of Wagner Road and Interstate I-95, has easy access on and off the East Coast’s major north-south interstate.
“Today is a new day for residents of Petersburg. This community has waited a long time for an economic development project of this size and scale, which will provide a huge boost for the City and the entire region. We cannot wait to start hiring local residents and partnering with local businesses and entrepreneurs. Thank you, Petersburg, for placing your trust and confidence in our team. We look forward to delivering results for you and being a part of this great community for decades to come,” said Zed Smith, Chief Operating Officer of The Cordish Companies.
