The Masterclasses will be held at the Academy & Live Training area (C192), near the Global Markets Lounge between entrances 2 and 3, and will run from 24-26 September at Feira Internacional de Lisboa.
Rasmus Sojmark, CEO & Founder of SBC said: “This is an excellent chance for our attendees to make the most of their time at the show. Masterclasses of this calibre usually come at a significant cost, often over €1,000, so I strongly recommend anyone interested in these topics to consider joining us.”
The following three Masterclasses have already been confirmed:
Masterclass with Sportsbook Training Services
The masterclass will feature Jonathan Smith, the founder of Sportsbook Training Services, who has over 25 years of experience in the betting industry. Smith has held various odds-compiling roles for major fixed odds and spread betting firms in the UK.
On Tuesday, attendees will delve into the Introduction to Odds Compiling & Sports Modelling Techniques. During this session, they will learn the core principles, including the mathematical theories and statistical models behind odds compiling. The session will explore where prices originate, both in theory and practice, how data suppliers create odds, and what exactly you are purchasing from them. Additionally, attendees will learn strategies to predict sports outcomes with greater accuracy.
On Wednesday, a Practical Demonstration centred on an English Premier League Match will guide attendees through pricing a football match, creating core markets, and developing bookings and corner markets, while also understanding how these markets integrate into BetBuilders.
Understanding Electronic Gaming Management
Led by Lucien (Lucas) Wijsman, renowned for his role at The Slot Academy (now the Electronic Gaming Academy). Wijsman has extensive experience advising land-based casino operators across Europe and other regions worldwide.
On Tuesday, the Electronic Gaming Player Expectations and Motivations session will focus on identifying and categorising casino visitor profiles to inform effective marketing strategies, as understanding their varied expectations and motivations is key to defining product mix and pricing.
Wednesday’s session, Product and Price Considerations, will examine how minimum and maximum bet settings on slot machines affect earning potential.
The final session on Thursday, Bet Based Promotions on Electronic Gaming Machines, will explore game configurations and concepts, analysing what makes games appealing to specific player categories, with a focus on RTP, game duration, and volatility.
Counterterrorism, Crisis Response & Cybersecurity Masterclass
Conducted by Noel G. Whelan, who has a 30-year career spanning military and counter-terrorism environments. Whelan holds a Master of Arts Degree in Counter-Terrorism and Security from Leeds University.
On Tuesday, the Surviving the Corporate Red 10 session will offer a simulated crisis experience, enhancing leadership and problem-solving abilities in high-pressure situations. Key takeaways include strategy creation, crisis response methods, leadership techniques, advanced public speaking, and establishing an emergency chain of command.
Wednesday’s session, Deterrence Against Terrorism & Money Laundering, will focus on understanding the risks non-state actors pose to the digital economy and developing strategies to safeguard against exploitation.
On Thursday, the Avoiding the Victim State session will address defending against cyber attacks, highlighting risk identification, and internal vulnerabilities, and creating tailored strategies to protect company assets and reputation.
“We’ve made sure that participants will walk away with certification, and by including subjects like sports betting, casino management, and cybersecurity, we’re truly addressing a wide range of interests,” Sojmark added.

ZITRO’S CONCEPT CABINET LINE MAKES ITS GRAND DEBUT AT G2E LAS VEGAS 2024
Zitro, a global leader in the gaming industry, showcased its latest gaming innovations for land-based and digital casinos at the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) in Las Vegas, held from October 7-10 at the Venetian Expo.
Zitro’s participation at the show was a resounding success, highlighted by the worldwide debut of its new CONCEPT cabinet line and expanded games portfolio, which is also fully compatible with the GLARE family of cabinets.
“Our team’s focus over the past year has been to create a product lineup that appeals to a diverse player base and supports our entire cabinet lineup”, said Derik Mooberry, CEO of Zitro USA. “Attendees witnessed first-hand the portability of our game content, allowing operators to experience our games across both our cabinet lines, providing them maximum flexibility and protecting their investment.
Zitro’s booth captivated attendees eager to experience the company’s latest innovations; the highly anticipated CONCEPT cabinet line includes Concept Prime, Concept Prime-J, and Concept Deluxe
Its core innovation lies in its Magic Lighting, which elevates the gaming experience with a spectacular light show. Designed to captivate without interfering with gameplay, it enhances the gaming experience and attracts new players. It offers synchronized light shows that vary and intensify based on the player’s achievements, with distinct visual effects for different levels of wins. For instance, the MEGA animation differs notably from the SUPER animation, with each win culminating in increasingly spectacular light displays, further enhancing the overall player experience.
The CONCEPT cabinet line brings next-level features to all form factors. Each cabinet showcases an ultra-slim, versatile, and elegant design that supports multiple configurations, maximizing floor space without requiring extra signage or wedges. Equipped with cutting-edge graphics and a powerful surround sound system, these cabinets ensure immersive gameplay and exceptional audio quality. What truly sets the CONCEPT line apart is its “augmented gameplay”, where every feature—from the XXL deck to the topper—syncs seamlessly with the game’s key moments.
The XXL deck is the largest in the industry, offering players much more space for enhanced comfort and convenience and providing ergonomic support for extended play sessions. Designed with both comfort and functionality in mind, these cabinets ensure players can enjoy longer gaming sessions without discomfort while operators benefit from easy accessibility. The CONCEPT line embodies the company’s campaign slogan: “BRIGHTER. BOLDER. BETTER.”
All form factors feature a high-resolution 4K display with up to 10,680 lumens. The Concept Prime is distinguished by its 55” screen. At the same time, the Concept Prime-J features a 55” J-screen and 27” topper. The Concept Deluxe stands out with its 3×32” screens, each delivering a distinctive and engaging visual experience.
The spotlight also shone on Zitro’s new game releases across its CONCEPT and GLARE cabinet lineup. Among the standout titles were Legendary Sword, a multi-game debuting at G2E on the Concept Prime-J, and Triple Charm Journey, an oriental-themed multi-game displayed on the Allure Glare cabinet. Another eagerly anticipated multi-game was Wonder Dream on the Concept Prime cabinet.
Zitro’s commitment to providing diverse gaming options was evident in its extensive game portfolio, which included new titles such as Lucky Vault, and Jerry’s Link on the Concept Deluxe cabinet, Pearl’s Paradise on the Altius Glare, and Cash Totems, Fairyland Quest, featured on the Concept Prime cabinet. Other standout games include King Fu Frog on the Illusion Glare and Merging Pots, also on the Concept Prime, among many other titles.
Zitro Digital, the company’s online division, also showcased its expanding range of digital video bingo and video slot games, complemented by engaging player engagement tools. The launch of the new Fu Frog series, featuring 4 unique game titles, has been successful in land-based markets worldwide and has been ported by Zitro to digital distribution channels.
Derik Mooberry, CEO of Zitro USA, shared: “The U.S. has been a remarkable growth story for Zitro. We’ve tripled our casino footprint in less than two years, expanding to over 100 casinos. Our strategic focus on the tribal market has proven successful, and we’re now poised to make significant inroads into the commercial market.
Derik added, “Our new, prominent booth location in Freemont Street reflects our growing presence in the U.S. market. We unveiled a range of groundbreaking products, including our new CONCEPT cabinet line, which offers exceptional player experiences. Additionally, our product portfolio, featuring a great diversity of content and banking configurations, has made a strong impression on customers and industry peers. Our success in the U.S. is further proof of our dedication to delivering exceptional products and services, and we’re eager to celebrate this new chapter for Zitro”.
Zitro’s founder, Johnny Ortiz, commented, “We’re proud to have showcased our largest and most diverse product range ever at this year’s G2E. This achievement is a result of our continued commitment to innovation and the exceptional work of our growing teams at our tech campuses in Barcelona and Bangalore. We’re optimistic about the future and look forward to continued growth and success.”
Zitro’s participation in G2E Las Vegas 2024 has once again solidified its position as a leading innovator in the gaming industry, setting the stage for continued growth and success in the years to come.

ACR POKER HOSTS THIRD ANNUAL ONLINE CHARITY TOURNAMENT TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE UNITED BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION
In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, ACR Poker is bringing back its annual online charity tournament this Wednesday, October 16th at 6pm ET.
This year, the event features a $15,000 guaranteed prize pool and a $55 buy-in, with proceeds going to the United Breast Cancer Foundation (UBCF) to support their vital work in aiding individuals affected by breast cancer.
Last year’s charity tournament saw over 400 entrants and raised $20,000 for the American Cancer Society. ACR Poker is looking to surpass those numbers this year by not only encouraging the global poker community to come together for a great cause while having fun, but also committing to match the final prize pool up to $15,000 as a charity donation to the UBCF.
Poker fans can tune in to catch all the action online as the charity tournament will be live streamed on ACR Poker’s Twitch channel. Viewers will also have the opportunity to win $66 tickets to ACR Poker’s $1 Million GTD Venom Warmup, which will be given away during the stream.
The charity tourney will be hosted by renowned ACR Pros Katie Lindsay, who is fresh off a career-best win of $102,915 at the Moneymaker Tour Aruba Main Event, and Ebony Kenney, who recently made four final tables during the OSS XL in September.
Also hosting is Svitlana ‘Svetarik’ Dryha, who joined ACR Poker’s first-ever ACR Team Online in July.
“It’s great to see how much the poker community comes together for these charity events. Last year’s tournament was a huge success, and this year we’re hoping to make an even bigger impact for such an important cause,” said ACR Pro Katie Lindsay. “This is a great opportunity to join a fun event while supporting the UBCF’s important work. We look forward to seeing you at the tables!”
