North Star Network are delighted to announce the acquisition of umdoisesportes.com.br, which becomes the latest addition to NSN’s global sports media portfolio.

Born from the GRPCOM merger of the editorial teams of Gazeta Do Povo and Tribuna do Paraná in 2020, Um Dois Esportes provides in-depth sports coverage and analysis for the Brazilian state of Paraná and beyond.

North Star Network co-founder Julien Josset said: “Thank you to the team at GRPCOM for their faith in us to take the brand forward. Um Dois Esportes is an established and renowned site in Paraná State, and we’re excited about the challenge of developing this asset.”

“We’re happy to maintain the collaboration with the existing editorial team, and look forward to working with them, bringing our unique NSN approach, to take UDE forward.” NSN’s signing of Um Dois Esportes is the media house’s fourth acquisition of 2024, following the recent deals to purchase UK-based SportsMole and MrFixitsTips, as well as Chilean site AlAireLibre, which was announced in March.

The latest addition to the North Star media portfolio joins existing assets including Top Mercato, Afrik-Foot, and Vringe. The Paris-based company already oversees a significant Brazilian operation, delivering over 6 million sessions per month, from the likes of Trivela, Premier League Brasil and Lakers Brasil.

NSN will retain Curitiba-based journalists from the Um Dois Esportes legacy team to maintain the asset’s unique tone and popular coverage of the Paraná sports scene across site and social.

“We were surprised by the interest, and initially had no intention of selling Um Dois, but as the conversations evolved, we realised this was a serious group with good intentions,” said GRPCOM Director Rafael Mello. “We were very happy to see our project being valued by a large international group and going global, demonstrating the quality of the content we produced.”

“We’re also proud that North Star inherited our journalists, who are truly responsible for the success of the product we offer readers every day.”

Amusnet has unveiled a great seasonal addition to its Online Casino portfolio, Coin Gobbler – Christmas Edition. It features one of the company’s most likeable characters and a new theme that brings joy and a Christmasy mood.

Once again, the distinguished gentleman Oscar and his favourite pet – the golden piggy – are here. This time, they are set within a fun and colourful Christmas theme to put everyone in the right mood for the upcoming winter holiday season while guiding players through the game and helping them gather the precious Bonus coins. Again, the game features a cluster pay method and a 6×6 layout complemented by high-quality graphics and cheerful sound effects.

Apart from the fruity symbols and the combinations they form on the reels, players should also watch for the Golden Coin, which is the Free Spins symbol, and will help them boost their winnings. All Golden Coins are collected in their piggy bank, and the more coins players collect, the higher level they reach and the more Free Spins they get. The most impatient players can also use the Buy Bonus feature to try out the Free Spins as quickly as possible without collecting the necessary number of coins.

Cluster

A unique type of online slot game that eliminates traditional paylines and features cluster pay mechanics, where a minimum number of matching symbols must appear adjacent to each other horizontally or vertically to form a cluster and secure a win.

Progressive Free Spins

The Free Spins have a round progression feature. Besides the slot screen is a Progression bar with five levels – 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, 5×5 and 6×6. Each level indicates the size of the Wild symbol once reached. All Bonus Coin symbols landing anywhere on the reels are collected until the end of the round, with a new level reached for every 4 Bonus Coin symbols collected.

Buy Bonus

When the “Buy Bonus” button is activated, the player is enabled to buy Free Spins.

Gamble

Play the game and multiply your winning through the Gamble feature!

Jackpot Cards

Once the Jackpot Cards bonus game is triggered, impressive Jackpots are revealed!

Marcus Boyle has announced his decision to step down as Chair of the Gambling Commission, with his term set to conclude on 31 January 2025.

Over the past three years, he has led the Commission through a period of change in the industry and regulatory landscape.

During his tenure, the Commission reached several key milestones, including the awarding and launch of the fourth National Lottery licence, which has driven funds raised for good causes to exceed £50 billion. He has also overseen the ongoing implementation of the Gambling Act Review and White Paper aimed at reducing gambling harm, as well as the recruitment of a whole new Board of Commissioners.

In April 2024, the Commission published a comprehensive three-year strategy outlining planned advancements through 2027, focusing on transparency and data use. With the strategy now in motion, Marcus leaves the Commission in a strong position and with a clearly defined path forward.

The Board of Commissioners and colleagues at the Gambling Commission have expressed their gratitude for Marcus’s leadership, dedication, and contributions over the past three years, wishing him well for the future.

The Minister for Gambling, Baroness Twycross, said: “The past three years have been very significant for the Commission, as it takes forward measures set out in the Gambling Act Review and the start of the fourth National Lottery licence.

“I am grateful for Marcus’s hard work and commitment to the Gambling Commission and public service over his tenure and wish him the best for his future endeavours.”
