What’s the future of eSports betting?

That’s one of the questions a panel of experts will try and answer when they convene at the first-ever conference to be held on eSports betting at the Royal Gordon Hotel, London, May 18.

The rate of growth in this niche market is astonishing. It’s still a baby. It’s going to be a pleasure watching it grow. I have been a gambler ever since my father opened up the tabloids and asked me to pick a horse for the Grand National back in the early 1980s.

Poker Central, the world’s only 24/7 poker TV network, is teaming up with PokerNews to launch a new weekly poker news show called Primetime Poker Report.

Poker Central is fast becoming a poker channel worth watching.

I must admit, I didn’t join the fan club after they launched with a roster chocked full of programming from the days of Cine Film, but they are slowly introducing some original programming, and that continues in May with the launch of Primetime Poker Report.

Poker Central will partner with PokerNews on the new show. Donnie Peters, Editor-in-Chief, and Global Poker Index (GPI) American Poker Awards (APA), Media Person of the Year, will host. According to the press release, a series of guest co-hosts as well as a team of regular contributors, will join Peters on the show.

Unibet Poker has welcomed the Finnish online poker site Pokerihuone into the fold, effectively becoming a poker network two years after leaving one.

Over two years ago, fed up with life on the Microgaming Poker Network (MPN), the sassy Swede’s at Unibet decided to jump ship and go it alone. Speaking at the time of the defection, Daniel Eskola, Head of Gaming at Unibet, told PokerNews that, ‘being part of a poker network is not sustainable for Unibet in the long term.’

It appears that strategy has changed after Unibet announced plans to add the player base at the Finnish online poker site Pokerihuone to their standalone site. Pokerihuone is a skin on the MPN. The plan is for the skin to operate as its own entity, but the poker experience for the players will be identical to that of Unibet’s, including a merger of the player pools.

Relax Gaming, an international B2B software provider, prominent within the gambling industry, designed and created Unibet’s standalone software. The company was founded in 2010, and has built online poker rooms, casinos, and bingo halls.

Organisers of the World Series of Poker have once again listened to their players and taken action to improve what is already the pinnacle of every player’s year, but have they done enough?

Season XIV of the World Poker Tour (WPT) is over. Season 12 of the European Poker Tour (EPT) is a Grand Final away from being finished. And you know what that means. Oh, yes you do. The greatest live tournament festival is about to begin. The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is on the horizon.

True to form, the organisers have listened to feedback from their most trusted clientele and have come up with some changes designed to provide value for the masses.

But how effective are their latest changes?
