Independent slot studio Thunderkick has launched Eager Beivers, the latest addition to its portfolio that combines playful themes and various bonus features to deliver an immersive gaming experience with tremendous win potential.

This six-reel slot is centred on a variety of beavers, as well as fruits, playing card symbols, and wilds from the "W" game lying on a wooden log. Avalanche wins are consolidated in the base game, where the symbols of the winning combination are replaced by new icons for the chance to get multiple wins on the same spin.

There are also two additional special wilds that amplify the payability upon some wins. Wild Splash Symbols select one icon on the grid and convert all instances of that icon into a wild. Wild Fall Symbols drop a random number of single or stacked wilds into a reel.

As well as exciting base games, Eager Beivers has the Cash Bonus Game, which is triggered by landing three bonus symbols anywhere on the reel. During the course of the feature, all regular reels are replaced by special reels that contain only cache symbols with values up to 100 times.

Collect, upgrade, and build symbols are also executed during free spin. The regular version of each symbol applies the modifier corresponding to all cache icons on the reel, and the super version applies the modifier to all cache icons on the entire grid.

The collection function accumulates all cache values, the upgrade function allocates up to 5x multipliers to the cache icon, and the build function extends the grid up to 10 riles. After completing the free spin, all the cache symbols are summed up and paid with the regular jackpot.

Eager Bevers showcases Thunderkick's design expertise and unique approach to gameplay, providing an enjoyable experience that drives engagement and retention among slot studio's global operator partners.   카지노사이트 모음

Mike Collins, game product owner of Thunderkick, said, "We are excited to introduce Eager Beivers, the latest release that we know players will enjoy.

"We've created a beautiful and ingenious environment where beavers work hard to reel, and it comes with a variety of bonus features that deliver a visually fascinating and potentially rewarding experience."

Jason Tatum has signed the highest contract in NBA history. The deal is worth 314 million U.S. dollars for five years.

"The Boston Celtics have successfully renewed their contract with Jason Tatum on the condition of $314 million for five years."

It's the highest amount ever.

Denver ace Nikola Jokic signed a five-year, $276 million contract in 2022, and Tatum's teammate Jaylen Brown signed a five-year, $304 million contract last year. It was the NBA's largest contract ever, surpassing $300 million at the time. However, Tatum renewed it after just one year. The NBA has succeeded perfectly in globalizing and has signed astronomical broadcasting rights. As team salaried workers eventually increased, so did the size of players' contracts.

Just 10 years ago, $10 million in annual salaries were rare, but most of the team's main players have recently exceeded $10 million.

Tatum, who received about $34.8 million this season, will receive about $54 million next season and a whopping $67 million annual salary in the 2028-2029 season.

Stephen Curry Golden State topped the NBA's annual salary. He received about 55.7 million dollars. Kawhi Leonard about 52 million dollars came in second and Nikola Jokic about 51 million dollars.

Tatum's contract has yet to be officially announced. However, the NBA's most trusted ESPN Adrian Warnarowski made the announcement, citing unnamed sources.

Tatum is the ace who led Boston to the championship.

Tatum, who joined the NBA in 2017, has grown steadily. Despite being young at 26, he has been a five-time All-Star and was a member of the dream team of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. He will also compete in the Paris Olympics.

Boston is a good enough choice. Tatum is already the best wingman in the league. He is 2m3 tall and has a 2m11 wing span.

With excellent height, ball handling is among the best in the league. Breakthrough under the basket, mid-range jumper, and three-point shooting are all very accurate.

Recently, modern basketball has broken away from the traditional position division point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward, center and divided positions into ball handlers, wingmen, and big men.

LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Yannis Antetokounmpo, Kawhi Leonard, and Paul George have been the NBA's best wingmen over the past five years. However, with the exception of Antetokounmpo, top wingmen have begun to deteriorate, and Antetokounmpo has weaknesses in shooting outside the box. When Tatum grew steadily, he stood shoulder to shoulder with them. Some say that given his ball handling and shooting ability, Tatum has already become one of the big three wingmen in the league.

In other words, Boston, a prestigious NBA club, acknowledged Tatum's sufficient value, and Tatum gladly accepted it.  실시간 바카라사이트

Boston, which won the highest regular league win rate and championship last season, signed astronomical contracts with key one-two punch Tatum and Brown, perfectly laying the groundwork for the next five years to win the top spot.

Rocky Mountain Gaming CC, LLC announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with G Investments LLC to acquire operational assets at Minter Holdings, LLC and Colorado Grande Casino to acquire operational assets at Johnny Knowlons Casino. Both properties are managed by David Minter through Minter Holdings LLC. The transaction is pending approval and license from the Colorado Gaming Division.

Rocky Mountain Gaming was founded by David D. Ross, Michael J. Cohen III, and Joseph J. Canfora to find gaming opportunities across the United States. Ross and Cohen have worked together at coastal casinos, Affinity Gaming, and JW Marriott & Lampart casinos for about 30 years. Canfora was the owner of Wildwood Casino in Cliffle Creek before selling its operational assets to Golden Nuggets in 2022. Canfora has more than 40 years of experience in gaming and hospitality.

Joseph J. Canfora said, "I was surprised when David and Michael approached me with the opportunity to get back into the Cripple Creek market for the first time." "After thinking about it, I realized that Johnny Nolan and Colorado Grande offered me the opportunity to maintain the old Cripple Creek casino that locals had become accustomed to."

"With Golden Nugget hosting anchor restaurants like Salt Grass and opening Chamonix this month, the Cripple Creek market is growing fast," said David Ross. "These two operators at both ends of the town will help attract new visitors to Cripple Creek, and we believe our properties have the opportunity to provide a truly local experience that caters to individuals looking for loose slots and personal services."

Johnny Knowles Casino is one of the original casinos on Cripple Creek and is at the heart of the town's historic gaming district, along with the Colorado Grande Casino. The two properties combined have about 400 gaming devices, seven hotel rooms, and operate Maggie's Restaurant in the Colorado Grande. David J. Minter is the sole owner of Johnny Knowles and the majority shareholder of Colorado Grande's operating assets.

"I'm proud of what I've accomplished at these two casinos over the years," said David J. Minter. "While other casinos came in and changed owners, we were a constant in this town. I'm looking forward to what Rocky Mountain Gaming CC brings to this casino that I love so much."  바카라사이트

PENN Entertainment, Inc. announced today that it will host a groundbreaking ceremony for the future Hollywood Casino - Joliet on December 13, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. (CT). The all-new land casino and entertainment facility will replace the company's nearby Gangseon Casino upon completion.

The $185 million local destination will dock Rockrun Collection, a new super-regional commercial and residential development that conveniently adjoins Joliet's Interstate 80 and 55 intersections and is expected to have 230,000 daily traffic. The best-in-class facility will offer about 850 slots and 44 live table games, including a baccarat room, a retail sportsbook, an upscale bar and restaurant, an approximately 10,000-square-foot event center with a gathering place, and an approximately 1,330 parking spaces. The company expects to create 450 construction jobs and 515 permanent jobs in the new facility, growing PEN's team currently in Joliet to 150 team members.

"We are thrilled to be moving forward with the construction of a new, state-of-the-art Hollywood Casino Joliet in an ideal location," said Jay Snowden, CEO and President of PEN Entertainment. "The proximity to our two states and the surrounding mixed-use development will provide exceptional visibility and access to our modern facilities in a highly attractive Chicagoland marketplace."

The move to land is based on a 2019 law that allows Riverboat Casino to be moved to land. The existing Hollywood Casino Joliet will maintain normal operations while the new land facilities are under construction, and is expected to take about 24 months.

"From our first-day teammates to the hundreds of people who will be with us in the months ahead, this is an incredibly exciting milestone for all of us with real estate and the community," said Mike Tomar, vice president and general manager of Hollywood Casino Joliet. "We're looking forward to delivering an even greater customer experience for our guests at Hollywood Casino Joliet in the future."

We invited the Illinois Gaming Commission, the Illinois General Assembly, Mayor Joliet and City Council, labor groups and other local stakeholders to the groundbreaking ceremony.

New Hollywood Casino Joliet is part of a previously announced plan for four new growth projects in Aurora, Illinois; Columbus, Ohio; and Henderson, Nevada. Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. has pledged up to $575 million for an overall budget of $850 million for the four growth projects.   프라그마틱 슬롯 사이트

Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker (R) is set to become the next president of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).

Baker and current NCAA President Mark Emmert are each soon departing their current jobs. Baker didn’t seek a third term as governor in Massachusetts, while Emmert earlier this year announced he would step down effective March 1, 2023.

After a nationwide search, the NCAA’s Board of Governors settled on Baker as the next president of the nonprofit organization that regulates student athletics among 1,100 universities and colleges in the US.

Governor Baker has shown a remarkable ability to bridge divides and build bipartisan consensus, taking on complex challenges in innovative and effective ways,” said Baylor President Linda Livingstone, chair of the NCAA’s Presidential Search Committee. “These skills and perspective will be invaluable as we work with policymakers to build a sustainable model for the future of college athletics.”

Baker’s appointment comes as the NCAA is amid a major overhaul in how it functions.

In 2021, the NCAA agreed to allow student-athletes to profit off of their name, image, and likeness (NIL). And it’s been almost five years since legal gambling on college sports began spreading across the nation after the US Supreme Court in May 2018 said the legality of such gambling should be left up to each state. Previously, the federal government’s Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) had limited full-scale sports betting to Nevada.

Baker’s Backstory, Future

Baker has served as governor of Massachusetts since 2015. He will be replaced in early January by Democrat Maura Healey, who won the state’s gubernatorial election last month over Republican Geoff Diehl.

Though Massachusetts doesn’t term-limit its governors, Baker chose to pursue another endeavor. He’s found it with the NCAA.

“The NCAA is confronting complex and significant challenges, but I am excited to get to work as the awesome opportunity college athletics provides to so many students is more than worth the challenge,” Baker said in a statement. “And for the fans that faithfully fill stadiums, stands, and gyms from coast to coast, I am eager to ensure the competitions we all love to follow are there for generations to come.”

“Over the coming months, I will begin working with student-athletes and NCAA members as we modernize college sports to suit today’s world, while preserving its essential value,” Baker added.

During his eight years as governor, Baker’s administration oversaw the opening of each of the state’s three commercial casinos. Plainridge Park opened as a slots-only casino in June 2015. MGM Springfield and Encore Boston Harbor, two integrated casino resorts with slots and table games, respectively opened in August 2018 and June 2019.

Baker’s predecessor — Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick — was in office during the 2011 passage of the Expanded Gaming Act that authorized as many as four brick-and-mortar commercial casinos in the commonwealth.

Sports Betting Proponent

Baker supported Massachusetts’ recent legalization of sports betting. Likening sports betting to cannabis in that consumers of both industries participate regardless of their legal status, Baker lent his backing to regulation efforts in order to protect bettors while generating new tax revenue.

[Sports betting is] a little bit like marijuana. If you just leave the black market there, you don’t bring it out of the shadows,” Baker commented in June.

After months of legislative deadlock regarding regulatory specifics –most importantly whether betting on games involving in-state colleges would be allowed — Massachusetts lawmakers sent Baker a sports betting compromise in early August. The governor signed the statute a week later.    카지노사이트

In-person sports betting is expected to begin next month. Online operations are likely to commence in March.

Billionaire former casino mogul Steve Wynn has listed his New York City penthouse overlooking Central Park for $90 million.

Located on the 30th and 31st floors of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel and accessible only by a private elevator, the duplex spans 10,875 square feet. It includes three bedrooms, four bathrooms, two half-bathrooms, 15-foot ceilings, and views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline.

Wynn paid $70 million for the place in 2012 to Millennium Partners founding partner Christopher Jeffries, according to The Real Deal. (Millennium was the firm that renovated the 36-story hotel at 50 Central Park South – originally opened as the Hotel St. Moritz in 1930 – to add 11 condo units, including Wynn’s.)

The penthouse’s 44-foot long living room – which features 10 arched windows and the largest terrace in the building – once served as the Hotel St. Moritz’s ballroom.

Downstairs is the private quarters, accessed via a marble staircase. The primary suite here features a spa-like bathroom, a dressing room, a gym, and a massage room.

The other two bedrooms include ensuite baths.

“Residents also benefit from the world-class luxury services and amenities of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, which include the La Prairie spa and health club, the business center, the Contour Bar and Lounge, in-room dining services, and housekeeping,” the Sotheby’s International Realty listing notes. (Common charges for the amenities are $19,107 per month, not including the $15,506 in taxes.)

Flipping Out

Wynn, 80, is also trying to sell his Benedict Canyon Drive mansion in Beverly Hills, according to the Real Deal. He listed it in March 2020 for $135 million, later cutting the price to $115 million. In April, still without a taker, he reduced his ask to $100 million. It is still for sale. He purchased it in 2015 from Guess cofounder Maurice Marciano for $47.85 million.

Wynn also recently listed a lakefront Palm Beach, Fla. mansion he paid $49 million for last year. He’s asking $78.5 million. And in April, he sold another Palm Beach Fla. mansion he purchased for $24 million last year for $32 million.

Wynn, founder and former chairman and CEO of Wynn Resorts, resigned from the company he founded in 2018 after multiple allegations of sexual misconduct were revealed by the Wall Street Journal. Wynn has repeatedly asserted that he never harassed or sexually assaulted anyone.   슬롯사이트 순위

Since quitting the casino business, he has reinvented himself as a Florida-based art dealer.
