TVBET’s PokerBet and 21Bet have got certified equipment
The world’s leading B2B provider of live games, TVBET, has updated the equipment of two more of its games — PokerBet and 21Bet. The games have got the GLI-certified shuffle machines, which guarantee the fairness of the outcomes. TVBET moves to the goal of upgrading all its games with the certified equipment.
TVBET continues to work hard on improving existing games. The live games provider has implemented GLI-certified card shufflers into two more games — PokerBet and 21Bet. The addition of PokerBet and 21Bet means TVBET now has a total of ten out of twelve live games approved by the UK-based Gaming Laboratories International (GLI). The changes have already entered into force, everyone can check it on the sites of their partners, or in the Demo section of the official TVBET website.
Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) is an internationally accredited association, in accordance with ISO/IEC standards, which confirms technical competence in the field of gaming and gambling. This achievement will allow TVBET to strengthen its position in the igaming market and will attract the attention of even more players, as they will be able to assess the fairness and randomness of the results of the games.
PokerBet is one of the most popular TVBET live games. As for the beginning of 2021, it has hit in the top-3 live-games of TVBET. It is based on the well-known rules of Texas Hold’em Poker.
21Bet is another beloved TVBET game which has quite simple rules. Two conditional players must score the number of points closest to 21, like in regular Blackjack.
Players have a wide range of options available in these two games:
- In-Play betting options;
- Parlay betting;
- Betting on up to 10 future events;
- Non-stop games streaming;
- Multi-level jackpot system;
- Promo functionality etc.
TVBET understands that players value the honesty of game outcomes, so they are trying to integrate certified equipment in more and more games. The provider expects PokerBet and 21Bet to become even more popular with the new shufflers.
Currently, TVBET has 10 out of 12 live games which are equipped with GLI-certified shufflers. The full list of certified TVBET live games is as follows: War of Elements, JokerBet, 1Bet, 5Bet, 7Bet, FruitRace, Lucky6, WheelBet, PokerBet, 21Bet. The games are broadcast live, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, all around the world. More than 200 partners have already integrated TVBET products.

Michigan Gaming Control Board Orders MyBookie.ag to Cease Operations in the State
The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has issued a cease-and-desist letter to Duranbah Limited N.V., the operator of MyBookie.ag, based in Curaçao. The site offers a variety of casino-style games, such as slots, poker, and live-dealer games like blackjack, roulette, and craps. It also allows users to place bets on sporting events and horse races.
MGCB Executive Director Henry Williams stressed the agency’s dedication to safeguarding consumers and ensuring compliance with Michigan’s gaming regulations.
“Our investigation into MyBookie.ag found that their operations were accessible to Michigan citizens, which violates state laws. We are taking strong action to uphold the principles of fair and legal gaming,” Williams said.
MyBookie.ag offers numerous payment methods for deposits and the funding of players’ accounts, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, PayPal, various cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and others), and MoneyGram. However, withdrawals can only be made via Bitcoin or bank wire transfer.
The MGCB’s investigation revealed that MyBookie.ag’s operation of online casino-style games for paying customers, without a valid Michigan gambling license, breaches several state laws, including:
• Lawful Internet Gaming Act: Internet gaming is only permitted by licensed operators. Only casinos licensed under the Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act and federally authorized tribal casinos within Michigan may apply for such a license.
• Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act: Operating a gambling business without an MGCB-issued license is a felony, carrying penalties of up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $100,000, or both.
• Michigan Penal Code: Gambling, which involves consideration, prize, and chance, is broadly prohibited. Accepting money or anything of value with the understanding that it will be paid based on the outcome of an uncertain event is illegal.
Duranbah Limited N.V. has 14 days from receipt of the letter to cease offering gambling services to Michigan residents, as required by the cease-and-desist letter. If the company fails to comply, the MGCB is prepared to collaborate with the Michigan Attorney General’s Office for further legal actions.

Delasport Enters the South African Market
After successfully complying with Brazil’s brand-new regulations, Delasport’s sportsbook is now officially certified for the South African market as well.
Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) issued an Affirmative Statement of Compliance to the global B2B supplier, making their expansion possible in numerous SA jurisdictions: Gauteng, Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal, Western Cape, Eastern Cape, Northern Cape, Free State, North West, and Limpopo.
This functional certificate opens the door to cutting-edge sports betting features for the South African audience. Advanced personalization through My Sportsbook, My Event Builder, and My Combo makes Delasport’s solution a critically acclaimed product.
South Africa and Africa in general are becoming more and more important points on the global iGaming map, since they have a rising population of more than 1.5 billion people according to the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa. Nearly 60% of the population are aged 25 or below. This contributes to the fact Africa is the fastest-growing mobile market with a ‘leapfrogging phenomenon’ – millions of people’s first experience of the internet is via their mobile devices.
‘We are excited to enter such a promising regulated market like South Africa and show what real localization looks like,’ Delasport’s CEO Oren Cohen Shwartz comments. ‘At Delasport, we believe in being both global and local – always thinking about the big picture while not losing sight of the smallest details. For us, entering the South African market doesn’t simply mean translating the interface, but tailoring the experience according to their habits, local providers, regional content, and much more.’
