At the time — which coincided with International Women’s Day (IWD) — Bilzerian’s image was also stripped from the bespoke Battle Royale game that was rebranded after him — and did not appear on the ambassador roster.
No comment came from GG so assumptions were made that the pair had finally parted ways. However, that is not the case.
As per the tweet on March 23, GG has confirmed Bilzerian is indeed still part of the GG roster. Notably, the operator turned off comments on the social media post, no doubt expecting a tidal wave of negative comments from the poker community, but that didn’t stop folks from retweeting and sharing their thoughts on the matter.
We did reach out to ask GG more about how they intend to leverage the partnership but all they could tell us was: “As the statement said, we will work with Dan on major projects, but we have no further comment at this time.”
At the time of writing Bilzerian’s name, images and emojis are still removed from the website.
Our sources over on pokerfuse revealed that the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) issued the license to the privately-held UK company last Tuesday.
Who doesn't love free money?! PokerStars just unveiled its new and improved rewards program, which offers 15-33% cashback for all players just for playing poker online.
Addabbo told pokerfuse that the state is currently “laying the groundwork for next year” — so save the date: *2023 could be the year that New York online poker and casino games become regulated in the state.
“iGaming in New York is not a question of if, but when. It’s going to happen — just maybe not this year,” says Addabbo.
Signs point to the fact that Michigan is making moves towards joining a multi-state gaming compact, allowing MI online poker operators to pool players across state lines.
The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has posted guidance to its website outlining specific actions that operators, platform providers, and third parties must take before it authorizes multistate poker.
This would be huge for the Mitten State.
For instance, PokerStars USA could combine Michigan online poker players with its pool of players in New Jersey. In time, PokerStars may be able to do the same in Pennsylvania, should that state also join a compact.
This could also be a big opportunity for NJ’s partypoker network — BetMGM Poker, Borgata, & partypoker}, which share liquidity within the Garden State — to combine with their MI counterparts.
