BGaming releases first-ever celebrity-branded slot Snoop Doggy Dollars

Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has teamed up with famous rapper and record producer Snoop Dogg to create an iconic new slot, Snoop Dogg Dollars.

The themed game is BGaming’s first branded content in collaboration with a celebrity and was exclusively launched with Roobet on 25th September, before going live across the wider network on 30th October.

With Snoop Dogg recording his own voiceover for the game, and the addition of a laid-back hip-hop soundtrack, this unforgettable slot comes at the perfect time — after the Doggfather was seen kicking off the Paris Olympics this summer.

In this collaboration between BGaming, Roobet, and Casinolytics, players enjoy performing cluster-pay mechanics where five or more matching symbols form a cluster to win. Each winning cluster marks its cell, and if the next win occurs on a marked cell, a multiplier is added starting from x2 and increasing by a further x2 for every new win on the cell.

When the symbols of a winning cluster have disappeared and the cells remain empty, a bonus symbol can be ‘dug up’. These four symbols include Scatters, Wilds, Weed and Skull icons.

Weed symbols upgrade all multipliers and then disappear, while Skullss clear low symbols and trigger a refill. 3–6 Scatters award 10, 12, 15, or 20 Free Spins and convert into Wilds or x10 multipliers for the duration of the Bonus game. Bonus Buy options and the Snoop Spin feature provide guaranteed sticky Wilds for added chances of winning.

Through this landmark collaboration, BGaming demonstrates its expertise in co-creation and unrivalled position as a trusted partner to some of the industry’s biggest names.

Alexandr Shavel, Product Owner at BGaming, said: “Snoop Dogg is one of the world’s best-known rappers with a legacy that spans decades, and he remains as high-profile as ever.

“With an inspired hip-hop soundtrack and an unmistakable West Coast setting, players will be transported to an immersive world where hip-hop reigns supreme. Snoop Dogg Dollars is a celebration of Snoop Dogg’s career, and we want players to join in the appreciation of the true master of his craft.”

Roobet commented: “We’ve really enjoyed producing this slot with BGaming.  Their team showed great talent, creativity and perseverance while developing the game and we’re very happy with the end result.”

The Company intends to name a new COO to serve as Sanders’ successor later this month.

“It’s impossible to overstate what Corey has meant to this Company over the last 30-plus years. He has been a constant presence, providing foundational leadership for all the key moments that have defined our history – from our acquisitions of Mirage Group and Mandalay Resort Group to our regional property openings and expansions like Springfield, National Harbor, Empire City and Borgata. More importantly, Corey helped us put all the different pieces together to create one company and one culture. As a leader and as a person, Corey understood the importance of caring for employees and treating people with respect. He will be deeply missed,” said Bill Hornbuckle, President & CEO of MGM Resorts.

Sanders is currently MGM Resorts’ Chief Operating Officer, overseeing the company’s Las Vegas and regional properties as well as multiple corporate departments, including Hospitality, Gaming, Human Resources and Strategic Initiatives. Prior to that, he served as the company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. In his tenure with MGM Resorts, Sanders has also served as Chief Operating Officer for the company’s Core Brands, Executive Vice President of Operations for MGM MIRAGE, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer for MGM Grand Resorts, Executive Vice President and CFO for MGM Grand, Assistant Vice President of Corporate Finance and Tax Director for MGM Grand.

Innovative Technology Americas are preparing for a major gaming show in the US – G2E 2025 – which will take place on October 6-9 at the Las Vegas Venetian Expo. Global Gaming Expo (G2E) is the gambling industry trade show for discovering the latest technologies and connecting with partners. Innovative Technology (ITL), a trusted provider of bill validators and recyclers to the gaming industry, will be showing their latest devices, from booth 1830.

Commenting on ITL’s participation, Lauren Fabbri, Business Development Manager for North America said, “This is always an exciting exhibition for us and we can’t wait to show G2E visitors our latest technology. We are experiencing huge growth across North America, as well as expanding our presence in South American, so this show presents an ideal platform to network with customers and suppliers in this vibrant market. Interest in our NV200 casino grade, field-proven bill validator is rising and with its “easy to retrofit” design, we are seeing more operators upgrading their existing machines. Come to the booth and see how this unit can transform cash handling for your gaming operations.”

Lauren continued: “We will also showcase a selection of bill recyclers at the booth with varying capacities depending on your need, including the NV4000 which is ideal for redemption terminals due to its large multi-bill recycling capacity, NV22S for a compact bill recycling solution, and the Spectral Payout for mid-range mixed denomination recycling. When using any of our recyclers with the SMART Coin System we can provide the gaming industry with a complete payment solution for both bills and coins.”

Concluding Lauren said: “G2E visitors will also be able to demo our latest AI-powered age and identity verification technology too. These products can be used to help prevent underage gambling, either on-machine or at entrances to age-restricted gaming zones.

Billy Bets Raises Financing from Coinbase Ventures to Disrupt $250 Billion Market with AI for Sports Prediction Markets

Billy Bets, the AI-powered sports-betting startup, closed a $1 million pre-seed round with Coinbase Ventures, and participation from Virtuals Ventures, Contango Digital, CMS Holdings, and a roster of athlete and crypto-native angels. The capital accelerates the public launch of the Billy Terminal, personalized autonomous betting agents, and expanded $BILLY token utility.

Sports wagering generates an estimated $250 billion in annual handle, yet fewer than 1% of bets are executed by AI agents on prediction markets.

“That inefficiency is our wedge. AI agents have already changed investing; now they’re coming for sportsbooks. Billy Bets will turn that small sliver into the default way fans bet,” said Joe O’Rourke, Co-founder & CEO.

Built on Base (Coinbase’s Layer 2), Billy supports bet discovery across prediction markets, including Kalshi and Polymarket, by highlighting edges, routes wagers to the best available price, and enables customized automated strategies. Billy’s natural-language terminal turns “Show me plus-EV NFL props tonight” into live odds, automated execution and real-time, traceable ROI tracking. Billy has routed over $1 million in betting volume, growing at 23% per week, since the launch of the Billy Terminal in June.

“Fundamentally, we believe all sports bettors will eventually rely on AI to improve their chances, particularly so with the advent of prediction markets, and we aim to be the best supplier of that agentic technology,” said Jared Augustine, Co-founder & Executive Chairman.
