Ezugi launches its first live game show, Ultimate Roulette, with unique multipliers
Ezugi, the live casino solutions provider, today launched its first ever live game show, Ultimate Roulette, a unique multiplier-filled Roulette entertainment that takes place in a stunning circus-themed environment.
Streamed live from Ezugi’s state-of-the-art studios to players, Ultimate Roulette presents classic Roulette in a fun live game show format set in a circus Big Top, and with a live game show host.
Ultimate Roulette follows regular Roulette rules but with a twist that offers truly entertaining opportunities for players to win big. That’s because in every game round there’s the possibility of 11 of the Straight Up bet numbers on the betting grid being hit with a big multiplier. Some multipliers can even double themselves, from up to 1000x to up to 2000x.
First of all, five Lucky numbers receive random multipliers in the range 50x to 1,000x. Players then have the option to buy up to three extra Lucky numbers each per game round. What’s more, the Lucky numbers can spread to up to three neighbouring numbers on the betting grid, with the new numbers receiving the same multiplier as the original number. Better still, purchased multipliers can double (2x), potentially resulting in one or more multipliers with a value of up to 2,000x.
Fredrik Bjurle, Chief Product Officer at Ezugi, said: “Ultimate Roulette is a momentous launch for Ezugi. It’s not only our first live game show but also a game with incredibly high production values. We are confident that players will be super-excited and entertained by the game’s unique setting and the dynamic multiplier action, which gives them the chance to win up to 2,000 times their bet.”
Bjurle added: “Players will be keeping one eye on where the multipliers are hitting, spreading and potentially doubling in value too, and one eye on where the ball is coming to rest in the wheel. In terms of player engagement and entertainment value, it’s the ultimate online live Roulette gaming experience.”

MLB Players Sign Licensing Agreement with PENN Entertainment

MLB Players Inc., a commercial affiliate of the Major League Baseball Players Association, and OneTeam Partners announced they’ve reached a licensing agreement with PENN Entertainment.
The agreement designates PENN’s sports betting platforms – ESPN BET in the U.S. and theScore BET in Canada – as Officially Licensed Sportsbooks of MLBPI.
PENN now has the rights to use MLB player names, images and likenesses on its sports betting platforms, marketing assets and promotional campaigns.
The deal also includes PENN’s retail sportsbook operations (32 retail sportsbooks at its casino properties, including 19 under the ESPN BET brand).
Last fall, FanDuel and MLBPI reached a similar licensing agreement after the MLB players’ union sued FanDuel and Underdog Fantasy in New York Supreme Court, accusing them of using the names and likeness of ballplayers on their players without permission.
”As baseball season gets underway, we’re excited to offer fans an enhanced betting experience that includes player likenesses, expanded wagering options and a more dynamic product. Partnering with MLB Players Inc. strengthens our connection to the league and its star players and creates additional opportunities to engage fans throughout the season,” said Jason Birney, Vice President of Operations at PENN Interactive.
OneTeam Partners specializes in commercializing group licensing rights for professional athlates, and is a joint venture between the NFL Players Association, MLB Players Association, Women’s National Basketball Players Association, MLS Players Association, and U.S. Women’s National Team Players Association.
“By integrating MLB player rights into PENN Entertainment’s platforms, this partnership brings fans closer to the game while unlocking new business opportunities in sports betting. It highlights the growing influence of players in shaping premium, fan-focused betting experiences while enhancing player NIL rights and widening distribution,” said Frank Arthofer, President of OneTeam Partners.

Caesars Entertainment Debuts its First Live Dealer Studio Inside One of its Caesars Rewards Destinations
Caesars Entertainment Inc. announced the launch of its first branded, live dealer studio inside one of its world-class destinations made possible through its partnership with Evolution. The debut of the space inside Tropicana Atlantic City in New Jersey marks the second custom studio made for Caesars live dealer offerings on its online casino platforms following the launch of its first such studio in Pennsylvania earlier this year.
Players 21 and older on Caesars’ online gaming platforms Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino can now enjoy a live dealer experience on mobile that draws inspiration from table game play at the Las Vegas Strip’s most iconic casino, Caesars Palace.
“The opening of this branded studio at one of our Caesars Rewards destinations introduces the newest addition to our ever-expanding online gaming platforms. We’re always striving to marry the world-class experiences our players enjoy at our destinations with the online casino play they love,” said Matt Sunderland, Senior Vice President and Chief iGaming Officer at Caesars Digital.
The New Jersey studio features five blackjack tables, which includes a VIP-exclusive blackjack table, one baccarat table and one roulette table. The tables feature custom felts with imagery and branding from iconic Caesars destinations on the Las Vegas Strip including Caesars Palace & Horseshoe. The studio also caters to VIP players, much like Caesars Rewards destinations, with a VIP-exclusive blackjack table offering an authentic 1-to-1 live high-limit blackjack experience, that could previously only be found in a physical casino.
“Evolution is thrilled to open a second dedicated Caesars live dealer studio inside Tropicana Atlantic City. This studio was made possible through our close partnership with Caesars. Once fully operational, it will generate approximately two hundred job opportunities in Atlantic City. We’re very proud to see a concrete example of how iGaming helps to create jobs and develop the workforce in our local communities,” said Jacob Claesson, Chief Executive Officer of Evolution North America.
Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino are available on iOS, Android, and desktop for those 21 and older in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ontario, and West Virginia. Each platform offers a dynamic online casino experience with a range of unique Caesarsbranded games alongside hundreds of classic land-based casino favorites and core casino game mechanics, including high limit slots, private live dealer tables, linked progressive jackpots, variations of poker and roulette, and more.
