<p>The <a href="http://online.casinotropez.com/promoRedirect?key=em9uZUlkPTE0MTQ5MTUxJmxhbmRpbmdQYWdlSWQ9MTM1MTAzMjUmcHJvZmlsZUlkPTM4MTA1Ng%3D%3D" target="_blank">Casino Tropez iPhone</a> and android application are set to hit the market in November 2009.  With this new iPhone casino, players are able to enjoy some of their favorite games from CasinoTropez.com on their iPhones, in a format similar to Flash.  No download software is required.</p>
<p>In the past, when players wanted to access a mobile game, the user had to download the application, install it on their mobile phone, and only then have access to play. <a href="http://online.casinotropez.com/promoRedirect?key=em9uZUlkPTE0MTQ5MTUxJmxhbmRpbmdQYWdlSWQ9MTM1MTAzMjUmcHJvZmlsZUlkPTM4MTA1Ng%3D%3D" target="_blank">Casino Tropez’s iPhone games</a>, on the other hand, are based on a web platform, whereby they can be accessed directly from all iPhone and android browsers, in a manner similar to a website. As such, the user is able to register, play, deposit and withdraw funds, all from the iPhone/android phone browser.</p>
<p>With iTropez, at the touch of a screen, the gaming experience is fully accessible anytime, anywhere.</p>
<p>“Casino Tropez has always been a market leader,” commented Euro Partners Marketing VP Marc Kenigsberg.  “It’s still one of the only online casinos to offer a mobile version.  And now, with the iPhone no download game version, players can access the <a href="http://www.casinotropez.com/mobile/mobile_games.html">mobile games</a> via this application right on their iPhones.”</p>
<p>This free new app is being released with three English language only games to start, including Jacks or Better, Gold Rally and Blackjack. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While Europe remains gripped with curiosity as to who will win this year&#8217;s UEFA finals, <a href="http://banner.titancasino.com/cgi-bin/redir.cgi?id=N&amp;member=gbeware&amp;profile=review" target="_blank">TitanCasino</a> is offering members a double incentive on the outcome.</p>
<p>LONDON, England May 25 /PRNewswire/ &#8212; It’s been two weeks since the final whistle blew on an extraordinary semi-final match that saw Manchester United defeat Arsenal, 3-1. The finalists, Barcelona and Man Utd, are now preparing for the biggest match of the year to determine who will be Europe’s top football team in 2009.</p>
<p>After United’s defeat of Barcelona in the 2008 Champions League semi-finals, both teams feel they have something to prove. Can Ronaldo help his team win the tournament for the second consecutive year, before his rumoured move to Real Madrid next season, or will Barcelona’s star player, Messi, help lead his team to a revenge victory?</p>

From 27-30 May, all members at Titan Casino (http://www.titancasino.com) are eligible to play in the Elite Challenge once they have made a deposit into their casino account.</p>
<p>Prior to <a href="http://banner.titancasino.com/cgi-bin/redir.cgi?id=N&amp;member=gbeware&amp;profile=review" target="_blank">TitanCasino</a>&#8217;s tournament starting, each casino member will receive an email giving them one of the 2 final teams to support.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The former CEO of the now-defunct billion-dollar international online gambling powerhouse BetOnSports pleaded guilty this morning in federal court in St. Louis to racketeering conspiracy and admitted helping to run an illegal betting operation.</p>
<p>David Carruthers, 51, told U.S. District Judge Carol Jackson that he was recruited in 2000 by BetOnSports founder Gary Kaplan and initially did not believe online gambling to be illegal.</p>
<p>But he said that eventually he realized that it was illegal, and that BetOnSports continued to advertise to U.S. customers that the company was &#8220;legal and licensed&#8221; while &#8220;furtively or covertly&#8221; collecting bets and paying out money owed to gamblers.</p>
<p>In exchange for the guilty plea, and Carruthers&#8217; agreement to cooperate with the others still facing charges, federal prosecutors will drop seven other charges and agree to recommend no more than 33 months in prison.</p>
<p>Carruthers could have faced almost 20 years in prison under federal sentencing guidelines.</p>
<p>BetOnSports, Carruthers, Kaplan and their associates were indicted in federal court in St. Louis in 2006 on federal racketeering, conspiracy, mail fraud and gambling charges. Carruthers was arrested in July of 2006 and placed on house arrest a month later after posting a $1 million bond. He will remain free while awaiting the trial of the others and his eventual sentencing.</p>
<p>Kaplan has been in jail since his arrest in March 2007. The company pleaded guilty in May 2007 and agreed to cooperate with investigators.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>State lawmakers, the various governors and U.S. Sen. George Voinovich can debate the merits of casino gambling until the buildings around us crumble from neglect. The righteous arguments played out over decades have not served Ohioans as other state legislatures enacted responsible and successful gambling statutes.</p>
<p>That was then, then, then, and this is now. Ohio lawmakers once again take up the debate, and state Rep. Dennis Murray Jr. took a strong pro-gambling stand, and a strong stand for Sandusky and the Firelands region. We agree with Murray, and others, entirely, that the lakefront along Erie, Ottawa and Lorain counties is the perfect venue to introduce the changes responsible casino gambling regulations will bring.</p>
<p>Here’s what is known for sure: The casino gambling industry has been successfully implemented in states across the country and in all the states surrounding Ohio. It creates good jobs, good tourism. It attracts responsible adults who vacation with their families to communities, and it generates reliable and substantial tax revenue.</p>
<p>This issue will continue to return and be pushed by varying interests that may eventually succeed in passing a statewide referendum — and we have seen from the well-intentioned but flawed language of the recent no-smoking ban that doing so would create as many problems in implementation. Legislators have a responsibility to properly bring gambling to Ohio, and now is the time to do it.</p>
<p>Ohio has missed this boat for far too long because some leaders upend the responsible path with old, tired and disproved arguments of moral degradation if the casino gambling genie gets out of the bottle. Strickland, Voinovich and other leaders pushing back should back away now and let the legislative process create and implement responsible casino gambling legislation.</p>
<p>It’s way past time to let that genie out, and if the legislation is responsible, it will include the Sandusky area as a destination place for casino gambling. It’s a natural fit for Vacationland. The infrastructure is here already, and the complementary industries (the best amusement park in the universe) sit here on the lake waiting for the shot in the arm, the true stimulus that this industry, this state and Ohioans all deserve.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Nacogdoches County Sheriff&#8217;s Office raided a double-wide trailer Saturday night around 10 p.m. and arrested three suspected gambling operators, seized nearly 70 illegal gambling machines and issued citations to about 40 patrons. Five other suspected employees of the illicit casino were cited with Class A misdemeanor court summonses.</p>
<p>More than two dozen law enforcement officers from the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, state police and Texas Rangers also participated in the raid on the establishment, located off FM 225 just outside the city limits.</p>
<p>Patrons remained at their seats while authorities combed the trailer for evidence of drugs, guns and alcohol, but none were found. Inside the back office, police recovered an electronic money counter, and at the front desk, three fire-proof safes were located containing an undetermined amount of money and gift cards.</p>
<p>After sending two undercover officers inside, the sheriff&#8217;s office received the go-ahead via text message about an hour later to conduct the raid, which involved over a dozen marked and unmarked police vehicles. Police first took into custody a suspected look-out in front of the dirt road that led to the trailer while other vehicles raced toward the full parking lot in front of the trailer. Once the property was secured, police began issuing citations to the mostly middle aged and elderly patrons inside. Some worried that they would lose their jobs over the raid, and others just remained silent but cooperative while police searched the structure.</p>
<p>Speaking with reporters at the scene, Nacogdoches County Sheriff Thomas Kerss said, &#8220;Obviously we think it was a very successful operation from our standpoint. It&#8217;s very obvious that this is an ongoing illegal gaming operation, and we will seize any cash involvement.&#8221;</p>
<p>Based on a local citizen&#8217;s tip, Daily Sentinel reporters visited the alleged gambling hall earlier in the week to verify sources&#8217; claims that a double-wide trailer located on a dirt road about 500 yards off of FM 225, just outside the city limits, was, in fact, a popular, yet illegal, casino.</p>
<p>Upon entering, a Daily Sentinel reporter saw about four dozen 8-liner machines and other various arcade-type games crammed into the dimly lit and smoke-filled trailer. Once inside, a money changer, with an inch-thick stack of $5 bills, asked the reporter if he was a police officer, to which the reporter said &#8220;no,&#8221; made change and sat down at a machine located a few feet from the main counter, where several people were observed to be talking and doing some sort of bookkeeping. While inside the trailer, at around 5:30 p.m., there were about 15 people, mostly middle aged or elderly, playing games like &#8220;Money to Burn&#8221; and &#8220;Trick-or-Treat.&#8221; In short time, a cash pay-out was witnessed, verifying that the establishment was operating outside the bounds of state law. When The Daily Sentinel took its information to the Nacogdoches County Sheriff&#8217;s Office, a statement was given, and shortly after a warrant was issued to raid the trailer.</p>
<p>8-liners provide bettors eight ways to win, and they look like most slot machines, or video poker machines. While they are not explicitly illegal in Texas, the law says winnings are limited to non-cash prizes worth less than $5 or not more than 10 times the bet. Because 8-liner casinos are often associated with being used to support other illegal operations, such as drug trafficking, and represent lost revenue to the state, the Texas Legislature is currently trying to crack down on them by drafting stricter regulations on those who operate the machines. Operation of an illegal gambling machine is a Class A misdemeanor, and a second offense is a state jail felony. Las Vegas and Atlantic City slot machines are paying out roughly 87 percent of the time and are regulated by state authorities. But un-regulated Texas 8-liners are said to only pay out only about 25 percent, or as low as the owner wishes to set the machine to. 8-liners cost between $1,000 and $2,000 but are capable of making 10 times that in a single month if heavily played.</p>
<p>Reportedly, the gaming devices had been moved from another location in Rusk County near Garrison just six weeks ago, and its loyal clientÃ¨le followed the machines into Nacogdoches County where they were placed in a new trailer, complete with wheel chair accessibility, a few hundred feet off FM 225 adjacent to where the former Deep East Texas Regional Narcotics Task Force used to operate. It was apparent that in addition to offering illegal gambling, alcohol was being served from a refrigerator inside the trailer. The property that the backwoods casino sits on is owned local landlord Don Beck, who in 2006 at the age of 72 was sentenced to 12 months in a federal prison and 12 additional months of home detention on illegal firearms charges. Many of Beck&#8217;s properties have long been attributed to criminal activity, including prostitution and drug dealing. There was no immediate information available to directly connect Beck with the illegal gambling operation at this seized property.</p>

<p>32Red.com, operators of the Best Casino award-winners 32Red Online Casino, announced today that they are to sponsor the Flat Jockey Championship title in 2009.</p>
<p>The most recent in a series of substantial advertising investments in 2009, with this sponsorship following the casino’s first television advert, is in line with CEO Ed Ware’s comments in a trading update earlier in the year that, “We will continue to increase our marketing spend in 2009&#8230;” and is consistent with <a href="http://www.32red.com/?BTag=32RedBanAff89466" target="_blank">32Red</a> Plc’s long standing support of horse racing in general, having sponsored the 2008 Group One Cheveley Park Stakes.</p>
<p>Ed Ware commented, “32Red is proud of the association between our online casino ( http://www.<a href="http://www.32red.com/?BTag=32RedBanAff89466" target="_blank">32Red</a>.com) and the cream of British racing. Supporting the best in racing fits our casino’s profile as the leading UK casino ( http://www.<a href="http://www.32red.com/?BTag=32RedBanAff89466" target="_blank">32Red</a>.com ), following our 6th successive Best Casino ( http://www.<a href="http://www.32red.com/?BTag=32RedBanAff89466" target="_blank">32Red</a>.com/about_us/best-casino.html ) award this February.”</p>
<p>The Flat Jockey Champion is determined by the total number of both flat and all-weather winning rides by jockeys between the 22nd March and 8th November 2009. Favourites for the <a href="http://www.32red.com/?BTag=32RedBanAff89466" target="_blank">32Red</a> Flat Jockey Championship include the current holder Ryan Moore, who rode 186 winners last year, and Jamie Spencer. At longer odds is Hayley Turner, who rode an impressive 100 winners in 2008 and, if successful, would become the first female champion jockey. However, it is the return of 3 times winner Kieren Fallon that will grab the headlines, despite not returning in time to compete for the title this year.</p>
<p>Josh Apiafi, Chief Executive of the PJA, commented: “We are delighted to welcome 32Red.com as a PJA commercial partner and look forward to establishing a long and successful working relationship together.”<br />
