Ladbrokes Owner Entain Warns Of Stagnating Online Trade

'With an increasingly recreational customer base and relatively resilient revenue, we remain confident that our customer focus, diversification and proven ability to grow both organically and through M&A (mergers and acquisitions) will enable us to deliver further progress against our strategy.'

Turnover from the company's high street stores jumped a colossal 243 per cent during the period, exceeding pre-pandemic levels in the second quarter thanks to strong demand for gaming and self-service betting terminals.

Alliance for Gambling Reform coordinator Anna Bardsley has led calls for a reduction in venue trading hours, spin rates and maximum bets after a shocking new report revealed Victorians alone had lost an estimated $66 billion to pokies in the last 30 years.

This week marks 30 years since Victoria introduced the first pokie machines at a pub in Melbourne's eastern outskirts, which then premier Joan Kirner described would result in 'better social, recreational facilities and a better night out.'

This game oozes confidence from the opening moments to the epic finale; stunning character animations -- seeing Sonic snowboard at the start of Ice Cap Zone is still awesome -- more levels than any of the others, compelling transitions between stages, loads of memorable bosses and moments of intense speed. Some of the music has been altered for this release due to the late Michael Jackson's oft-reported involvement with the original soundtrack, but it didn't take too much away from the experience for me.

'Back then Victoria started with 10,000 machines, today there are almost 30,000 poker machines and despite mandatory closing laws operators have found loopholes to provide gambling access 24 hours a day - and in some of Victoria's most vulnerable communities.'

HONG KONG, July 9 (Reuters) - Macau will shut almost all commercial and industrial businesses including its casinos for one week from Monday, as authorities race to curb a surge of COVID-19 infections in the world's biggest gambling hub.

Dexter: New Blood Dexter, the show starring Michael C. Hall as a murderer who only murders murderers, ended in 2013, and Dexter: New Blood picks up 10 years later. Dexter has moved to Iron Lake, New York, where he runs a store that, as the preview reveals, sells plenty of temptingly sharp knives. The show premieres on Showtime on Nov. 7.

"There´s nervousness about earnings season and the CPI report, but I think the market has a sense as to what CPI is going to bring this week," said Robert Pavlik, senior portfolio manager at Dakota Wealth in Fairfield, Connecticut.

Army of Thieves Army of Thieves is a follow-up to Netflix's Army of the Dead, in which a motley crew of characters decide that a zombie apocalypse is a great time to pull off a Las Vegas casino heist. Army of Thieves, then, is kind of a prequel to that film, focusing on fan-favorite character Dieter (Matthias Schweighöfer). It's set years before Army of the Dead, but the zombie outbreak is already starting. Nathalie Emmanuel, who stole hearts as the doomed Missandei in Game of Thrones, also stars. The movie will be on Netflix, but there's no release date yet.

NEW YORK, July 11 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 fell on Monday as dearth of catalysts left market participants warily embarking on a week back-end loaded with crucial economic data and the unofficial kick-off of second-quarter earnings season.

Despite the high price, the Genesis Sonic games are some of the best platformers ever made, and Sonic Origins presents them in the most visually stunning compilation yet. If you're looking to revisit classic 2D Sonic games or want to introduce them to a new generation of players who've discovered Sonic through the recent movies, this collection is the slickest, most accessible way to experience them. And it still puts me in a better mood whenever I load it up.
For the purists, Classic Mode lets you play with retro visuals, a 4:3 aspect ratio (with bars on the sides of the screen) and limited lives. I'm glad it's possible to recreate the old style of play, but it hardly feels like the ideal way to experience these games in 2022.

You can also play through all four games in a seamless story mode, linked by beautiful animated cut scenes created for Sonic Origins. Across every mode, you collect coins that let you unlock music and art in the in-game museum -- this element of the game feels a bit light, given Sonic's 31-year-old history -- or retry each game's special stages if you're trying to collect all the Chaos Emeralds (which you need to get the true endings).

Its BetMGM joint venture has also forged tie-ups with Carnival Corporation to offer cruise ship gaming, and with Sony Pictures Television and slot machine producer IGT to launch a digital casino based on the television programme Wheel of Fortune.
Hargreaves Lansdown equity analyst Matt Britzman said the company's BetMGM division 'has been a shining light' that is likely to benefit from expansion into more American states and additional gains in market share.
