You can sort slots by popularity on Betcris Mexico site. Mermaids love slots are popular over there ;-)

Fair enough if it was, I don't remember it. Time will tell who's theory is correct, as long as Leap monetises soon I don't really give a sh1 te tbh.

As far as I recall casino was never on the IMG Arena website other than by way of mention in the Alliance membership. Casino was always on the IMG sales portal. Just checked, still there. https://portals.imgarena.com/salesportal

More like total codswallop in my view. You said yourself slots are bigger than virtuals so why would IMG not want them as well? Seed might own 47% of Leap and IMG only 27% but who do you think is the more influential owner? IMG seem to have been perfectly happy with the focus on slots the past 18 months or so don't you think.

Ok I have given my thoughts. Why do you think M&A and IPO?

If Leap sell off virtuals they are left with little more than a dozen slots, a few table games and 2 bingo games. Hardly worth an IPO imo.

I believe the end game with Leap all along was to create a more rounded offering they can sell to casino clients - remember you won't find virtuals on a sportsbook site in the US like you do the UK because they aren't classified as a sport and have to be offered through the casino sites instead, hence why Leap have been so focused on slots so they can cross sell multiple products. The OpenBet acquisition opens up the big sportsbooks with casino sites which is why I think Leap won't be broken up. That's my thoughts anyway.

I don't. Not that it matters.

FWIW I have a hunch that Leap will be sold around the time Endeavour complete their acquisition of OpenBet. OpenBet will be combined with IMG Arena and rebranded OpenBet Arena.

As always I don't understand a word of that Inveniam release...but if it results in us eventually getting some money back from the Factom debacle I'm all for it.

They have been busy haven't they :-)

It's funny because it's true. Anything Jim says should be taken with a bag of salt, not just a pinch. Interesting he has invested in Genflow though, maybe Juvenescence have taken a position too?

This is interesting. 1st longevity company to list in Europe. Article says Jim Mellon is invested. I expect there to be a lot of longevity related activity this year. Who knows maybe even the long awaited (and waited and waited and waited a little bit more) Juvenescence IPO.

Not sure it's ever been mentioned on here before but due to legal reasons virtual sports aren't generally hosted on sportsbooks in the US unless an individual state grants the operator special permission. Virtuals are found on the casino sites operated by the sportsbooks. This is why I believe Leap have been concentrating on slots the past 18 months or so as they want to sell virtual sports, slots and table games to the casinos and is why i don't think virtuals will be split off in the event of a Leap sale or IPO.

Sorry, I meant Fan Duel is an Open Bet client. The Endeavor acquisition of Open Bet completes in February and is significant as it opens up a huge number of US sportsbooks to IMG Arena.

And Fan Duel an existing IMG Arena client.

Thanks for the list Barwick. Of the 9 approved NY sportsbooks, 3 of them are official partners of NASCAR - DraftKings, BetMGM & Wynnbet. NASCAR season begins in February 6th.

Yes still holding Barwick and slightly annoyed by yesterdays rise tbh as I planned to double up after the recent shareholder call and Reverse Bio presentation. If Mike West can do what he claims he can do then I'm going to be rich I tell you! Yesterday was just a massive pump & dump though.

I hope it has bottomed...I'm 73% down and trapped. It can go to zero, I seriously don't care any more.

I stand to be corrected.
