A casa de apostas online Sportsbet recently paused its 'bet with mates' feature, which allowed users to place bets with 🍏 their friends while online. The reason for this pause has not been officially announced, but there are a few potential 🍏 reasons for why Sportsbet may have decided to take this action.
One possibility is that the 'bet with mates' feature was 🍏 not generating enough revenue for the company. While allowing users to bet with friends can create a more social and 🍏 engaging experience, it may not have led to an increase in overall revenue for Sportsbet. Additionally, the feature may have 🍏 been underutilized by users, making it difficult for the company to justify the cost of maintaining and improving it.
Another possibility 🍏 is that the 'bet with mates' feature was causing compliance or regulatory issues for Sportsbet. Online gambling is subject to 🍏 strict regulations in many countries, and Sportsbet may have determined that the feature was not in compliance with these regulations. 🍏 Alternatively, the feature may have created issues related to responsible gambling, such as enabling users to bet beyond their means 🍏 or placing pressure on friends to bet more than they are comfortable with.
Finally, it is possible that Sportsbet is simply 🍏 using this pause as an opportunity to reassess and improve the 'bet with mates' feature. The company may be gathering 🍏 user feedback and analyzing data to determine how the feature can be improved and relaunched in a way that addresses 🍏 any issues or concerns.
Overall, the pause of the 'bet with mates' feature on Sportsbet is likely due to a combination 🍏 of factors, including revenue, compliance, and user experience. As the online gambling industry continues to evolve and become more competitive, 🍏 companies like Sportsbet will need to be agile and responsive to changing user needs and regulatory requirements.
History [ edit ]
Poker has been appearing on television somewhat regularly since the late-1970s. In the United States, CBS started 🫰 airing the final table of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event as an annual one-hour show around this 🫰 time and later by ESPN, which were casino-produced shows produced under a time-buy arrangement for sports omnibus programming such as 🫰 the CBS Sports Spectacular. For many years, the coverage was less than robust because viewers at home could not see 🫰 what cards the players had or follow their progress visually through graphics. Instead, the coverage essentially involved the commentators guessing 🫰 what cards the players had in a documentary style production.
In 1997, the hole cam, which allows audiences to see the 🫰 hidden cards that players held in their hands, was introduced in Europe. The hole cam was patented by WSOP bracelet 🫰 winner Henry Orenstein and first used in the Late Night Poker television series. It was used again in the inaugural 🫰 Poker Million tournament in 2000 which boasted the attraction of the first £1,000,000 poker game on live television. By 1996, 🫰 however, the ESPN one-hour highlight show only included hands that were shown down, so that the commentators, including Gabe Kaplan, 🫰 could comment, in post-production, on the hands while they were being played out. The commentators referred to this as "taking 🫰 a peek at the cards", and provided the first contemporary announcing on hands during the play in poker history. By 🫰 2001, however, Late Night Poker had been cancelled in the UK and televised poker could no longer be found in 🫰 Europe. In the US, the 1999, 2000, and 2001 World Series of Poker events were only broadcast in one-hour documentaries 🫰 on the Discovery Networks.
In 1999, documentary filmmaker Steven Lipscomb produced and directed a documentary on the WSOP for the Discovery 🫰 Channel. It was the first U.S. poker production funded entirely by a television network rather than the casino. When the 🫰 1999 WSOP aired, it doubled its audience over the hour time slot. Seeing the audience reaction, Lipscomb believed there was 🫰 an untapped market and began pitching poker series ideas to cable and network television. Because poker had been on the 🫰 air for over twenty years, with little viewer interest, broadcasters were unwilling to commit resources to put a series on 🫰 the air.
In October 2001, Lipscomb wrote a business plan. Along with poker player Mike Sexton and poker business woman Linda 🫰 Johnson, Lipscomb approached casino mogul and avid poker player, Lyle Berman, whose company Lakes Entertainment agreed to fund the World 🫰 Poker Tour (WPT)—the first organized and televised tour of poker tournaments in the world.
