Our panel of guests for the latest Gaming News Canada Show podcast ploughed through a plethora of happenings in the gambling industry as we said goodbye to January and welcomed February.
Speaking of goodbyes, Penn Entertainment announced a leadership transition program with the imminent departure of John Levy and sons Benjie, Aubrey and Noah. Quarter4, the AI/sports predictions business in Waterloo co-founded by Kelly Brooks and Danijela Covic, has been acquired by FairPlay Sports Media (the company formerly known as Oddschecker Global Media). And, the new month opens this week with the ICE conference in London.
Amanda Brewer, Phill Gray and Kris Abbott covered the major happenings. Brett Jackman, the VP of finance and strategy for PointsBet Canada, made his maiden GNCS appearance to answer our questions about the positive numbers seen in the operator’s latest financial results.
And, both Gray and Abbott looked ahead to Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII from a bettor perspective.
