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.

Massachusetts Gaming Commission Launches Official Seal of Approval

The Massachusetts Gaming Commission (MGC) has recently developed and adopted an official seal of approval, which all licensed sports betting operators in the state are now required to display on their digital platforms. The introduction of this seal represents a significant step in the MGC’s ongoing efforts to promote responsible and regulated gaming within the Commonwealth.

The seal is intended to serve as a clear signal to consumers that they are accessing a sports betting platform licensed and regulated by the MGC. By prominently featuring this seal, customers can easily distinguish between legal, licensed operators and unsafe, illegal alternatives.

“The MGC has spent considerable efforts ensuring that the operators licensed in the Commonwealth share our values and are committed to consumer protections and responsible gaming. Massachusetts residents who choose to gamble on sports deserve to know their data, personal and financial information are protected, and only the legal marketplace offers those protections. By locating this seal, users will be able to easily identify a legal sportsbook from an illegal operator,” said Commissioner Eileen O’Brien.

Offshore and unlicensed sports betting sites have been accessible to patrons across the US for years. However, with the legalization of sports wagering in Massachusetts, these offshore operators may attempt to present themselves as legitimate. Yet, they are not licensed by any state jurisdiction and do not comply with the same regulations and consumer protection standards as the legal market.

The risks of using these illegal platforms extend beyond potential data breaches or financial losses. Unlicensed operators may refuse to honor winning bets, leaving consumers with little to no recourse. Illegal gambling activities are also often tied to other serious crimes. The Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office has issued cease-and-desist orders to several major illicit operators. It will continue to monitor and take action against such unlawful activities in coordination with the MGC. The Commission would urge anyone looking for more information on illegal platforms to visit the website of the American Gaming Association.

This newly adopted seal serves as a visual reminder of the regulations in Massachusetts’s legal sports betting market. It enhances consumer protection and builds trust with members of the public who choose to engage in sports betting. By identifying the official MGC seal, customers can have peace of mind knowing they are accessing a fully licensed platform compliant with the Commonwealth’s laws and regulations.
