The Freeze of the Slots, Required by Sydney Council

Sydney’s Fairfield council has called on the New South Wales (NWS) government to freeze the number of slot machines (or pokies) in the area, after news emerged that A$8bn was spent on these in the 2015/16 financial year.

It says the state government regulator, the Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority, should consider capping slot machine numbers in all “vulnerable” communities due to the high risk of gambling-related harm to residents.

"No public good can be achieved within communities with high levels of gambling, such as Fairfield, for any further development of the gaming industry or any additional increases in gaming revenue," says the submission, obtained by Fairfax Media.

Fairfield is ranked as one of the most disadvantaged areas in Sydney. The submission notes that 18 pubs and 20 clubs operate 3836 poker machines in the Fairfield council area.

Greens MP, Justin Field, said in a statement: “NSW has allowed de factocasinos in our local communities that are ripping billions of dollars from local people and taking a toll on families and individuals.

“The government must now play its part and give pokies-impacted communities like Fairfield support for a freeze and then reduction in machine numbers.”

Scientific Games Bought Red7Mobile Ltd

Global game developer Scientific Games has announced the acquisition of UK-based iGaming provider Red7Mobile Ltd for an undisclosed fee. 

Under the terms of the deal, Scientific Games will retain all of Red7’s staff in the firm’s existing Bristol office and will continue to fully support Red7’s partnerships with online and sports betting operators through the Scientific Games network. 

Red7 designs and develops casino games and sports betting applications for both mobile and desktop platforms and has existing partnerships with many of the industry’s leading online gaming and sports betting operators.

In a statement announcing the deal, Matt Hatch, Chief Executive Officer of Red7 said: “We are excited to be a part of Scientific Games, combining Red7’s creativity, innovation, and award-winning games to deliver transformational player experiences to Scientific Games’ real-money gaming partners around the globe.” 

Scientific Games Group Chief Executive – Interactive Barry Cottle added: “The acquisition of Red7 and its highly creative, talented team is a very positive development in SG Interactive’s growth story. 

"Red7’s portfolio of innovative games augments our entertaining game content and industry-leading intellectual property. We’re also excited about their sports betting apps, which include a host of robust features that add excitement to the sports betting experience.” 

Belgian Opposition Requires Gambling Restrictions

The Christian Democratic and Flemish Party (CDV), one of the leading opposition parties in the Belgian parliament, has proposed further restrictions on the country's licensed gambling industry.

Representatives from the CDV have called for a uniform age limit increase from 18 to 21 years on all forms of licensed gambling services including lottery, casino and sports betting.

CDV MPs have also said that the effectiveness of the 2009 Gambling Act, which regulates gambling in Belgium should be reviewed or revised following a marked increase in the number of international gambling firms targeting Belgian consumers.

The proposals follow a similar ‘get tough on gambling’ initiative in June by CDV MP and Belgian Minister of Justice Koen Geens, who proposed a five-point plan which would see: the banning of gambling advertisements on television before 8pm, the complete blocking of any gaming advertisements during live sporting events, and setting restrictions on a number of TV advertisements served by individual betting operators.

Measures proposed also included the inclusion of gambling helpline numbers and information to be attached to all gambling-related advertising and an increase in the amount of fines being given to operators seen to be breaching regulations.

The tightening of restrictions on the Belgian gambling industry has support from MPs from both sides of the Belgian parliament and officials from the Belgian Gaming Commission, who have long called on the Belgian government to increase their remit.

The Effects of Sports Gambling

The Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 and the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 are two of the rulings which are coming into question, yet there are mixed emotions on whether legalizing sports betting would be the right direction to take.

Acceptance of sports betting UK is becoming more commonplace and cash-strapped states are considering the opportunity of revenue should the laws be relaxed. However, there are also worries that legalization would contribute to an increase in gambling advertising and gambling addiction, which can also affect the players, as countries like the UK know only too well.

Recently football midfielder, Joey Barton, commenced an 18-month ban for placing 1,260 bets on matches over the past 10 years, breaking the FA’s rules. A footballer in Scotland has recently taken action himself, making an effort to curb his own addiction by requesting to be placed on the bookmakers’ self-exclusion scheme. A Ladbroke’s spokesperson has stated the importance of such schemes in order to ensure responsible gambling remains a vital part of their business. This could be something America takes into account should the laws be relaxed.
Campaigners in the United Kingdom are urging football chiefs to assist in tackling the prolific gambling problem amongst footballers by banning sponsorship by the betting companies. Kevin Twaddle, a former star who lost more than £1million on sports betting and who now works with players to get help, stated “How can football be big on gambling awareness when they are sponsored by all the major bookies?

Should US legalization take place, even partially, then it is expected that some of the worlds largest tech companies would compete against those already in the field, such as sports book operators and state lotteries, for a share of the market. This ties in to speculation that legalization could create more exchanges similar to the process of the stock exchange, catering for more sophisticated ways of betting and giving opportunity for the leagues to profit directly.

In 2017, sports betting is no longer just a deal between the sports book operator and the punter; when considering the enormity of games such as Super Bowl in USA, we have to consider that we are already involving the global marketplace with a huge value of global money flow, and that the odds are based not just on local value, but a more widespread market valuation.
