The past month marked a pivotal moment in NASCAR’s push toward innovation as NASCAR and nVenue worked to deliver a new way to watch the race. Using nVenue’s in-race betting product to focus on head-to-head matchups, nVenue’s real-time predictive probabilities for each matchup were integrated into the race broadcast.

NASCAR and nVenue have worked together since 2023 and recently reached a multi-year agreement to extend their partnership. As a data partner, nVenue has built a live betting product that allows fans to bet on hundreds of markets during races. nVenue worked with NASCAR to build out live head-to-head markets for each matchup of the In-Season Challenge.

nVenue integrated its proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning platform for live sports with the In-Season Challenge broadcasts. The integration kicked off during the opening race of the In-Season Challenge and continued throughout the Challenge, delivering a new level of real-time insight directly into the broadcast experience.

At the same time, fans across the world were able to place bets in real-time on head-to-head driver matchups, stage winners, and dozens of new in-race markets, marking a historic first for the sport.

Behind the scenes, nVenue’s commitment to execution was on full display. Co-Founder and Chief Sports Officer, Bruce Sears, was in the production control room for the opening race, working hand-in-hand with multiple teams and resources required to bring the integration to the air.

“nVenue has been a fantastic data partner. One of the great things about nVenue’s partnership is in addition to the live betting product it has built, nVenue has the ability to turn odds into probabilities that can be shown on live broadcasts to further promote fan engagement. This lined up well with the format of the In-Season Challenge, allowing us to provide fans with a way to follow the live probabilities of each matchup throughout every lap of the race,” said Joe Solosky, NASCAR, Managing Director, Sports Betting.

“nVenue’s real-time predictive probabilities came to life during live NASCAR racing to provide a richer experience of the sport, for fans watching, betting, or both. The nVenue platform meets the incredibly demanding speed and precision required for motorsports, but also sets a new standard for fan engagement and in-race betting. It’s a testament to our team’s unparalleled expertise in bringing such complex, data-driven innovation to market at scale. Innovation has only just begun, and we are excited to continue this work with leagues, media, and sports betting to bring these worlds together for the best experiences in live sports,” said Sears.

With broadcast, betting, and data now converging on race day, this collaboration between NASCAR and nVenue is signaling the future of how fans engage with the sport, one lap at a time.

CT Gaming and Palms Bet are partnering again, and this time it is about the introduction of Diamond King 4 in the gaming halls across the country. As of now, 56 gaming machines featuring the multigame have already been installed, with the total number expected to exceed 70 in the coming weeks. The installations cover key locations including Sofia, Burgas and Veliko Tarnovo. At some of the locations, the thrilling multigame is paired with EZ Modulo slot cabinets, while others chose the EZ Modulo Tower cabinets. These combinations are fully possible, as the Diamond King 4 compatibility allows it. This project marks a significant milestone in the ongoing partnership between CT Gaming and Palms Bet.

With the installation of Diamond King 4, visitors to Palms Bet gaming halls can now enjoy enhanced graphics, modern themes and immersive gameplay that meet the expectations of today’s players. The multigame includes 40 titles, 20 of which are linked to a progressive jackpot, along with features such as the Buy Bonus version of the most popular game – Duck of Luck, and the revamped Diamond Tree Deluxe jackpot. Unlike previous versions, players can now win any of the three jackpot levels directly from the base game, while cascading white and pink diamonds offer exciting rewards with every spin.

“We are pleased with the successful rollout of installations in partnership with Palms Bet. Thanks to this collaboration, more and more players across the country will have access to the premium gaming experience that Diamond King 4 delivers,” said Biser Bojanov, CEO of CT Gaming.
