Very surprised I havent seen anything mentioned on here about the Gambling Commission penalty Stride Gaming have received (They're the holding company for Magical Vegas).
This kind of thing is no big deal, happens all the time in the industry, but am a bit surprised all those who didnt like the fact we had a gambling sponsor havent shouted this from the rooftop |  | | |  |

That's a very clever way of shouting it from the rooftops. | |

People with no interest in gambling (who are likely to be opposed to our sponsor) won’t even be aware of it. |  |

The notice doesnt actually say, this is the wording...
"The Company notes that a subsidiary of the Company (the "Licensee") has received notice (the
“Notice”) from the Gambling Commission of Great Britain (the "UKGC") of its intention to require the
Licensee to pay a significant financial penalty following a review of the manner in which the Licensee
has historically carried on its licensed activities. The Company further notes that the Notice is not final.
The Company is taking advice as to its options from its advisers, which include making representations
to the UKGC about the proposed financial penalty and, if need be, appealing the ultimate decision of
the UKGC and/or the size of any penalty" | | | |

And therein lies one of the reasons so many people dislike being sponsored by an online gambling company. Rules, decency? Np, they're for everyone else. |  |

nah, the notice just says this
require the Licensee to pay a significant financial penalty following a review of the manner in which the Licensee has historically carried on its licensed activities
So its how they did things in the past, doesnt necessarily mean that they're doing anything wrong now | | | |
