The 16th European Dealer Championship, hosted by Holland Casino at its Venlo operation proved to be a hugely popular event, where 37 dealers from 21 European countries gathered to demonstrate their exceptional skills before the EDC judges.

Three days of intense tournament competition culminated in Noemie Serra of Casino de Monte-Carlo being crowned the European Casino Association’s Dealer of the Year. Jamie Cummins from London’s Crown Casino took the runners-up spot, with Asa Ekerot from Casino Copenhagen securing third place.

As well as taking home their trophies, the winner scooped a grand prize of €5,000. The second and third place finishers were awarded €3,000 and €1,500, respectively. In addition to the main prizes, there were another five Skill Challenges, each offering a prize of €500 for the winners, showcasing the diverse talents and expertise of the competitors.

  •     Best Mathematician: Jamie Cummins, Aspinalls
  •     Best Chipping: Tsvelan Kritonov Yanchev, City of Dreams Mediterranean, Cyprus
  •     Best Cutting Chips: Noemie Serra, Casino de Monte-Carlo, Monaco
  •     Best Pushing Stacks: Stefano Samperi, Casino Malta
  •     Best Card Handler: Marco Skorjanic, Casino Innsbruck, Austria

The finals, which followed intense national heats, brought the crème de la crème of Europe’s casino dealing professionals to Venlo for the skill-based competition to demonstrate their astute decision-making, lightning-fast reflexes, and seamless ability to balance chip management, mathematics, and engaging social interactions.

The dealers were evaluated by a dedicated panel of impartial international judges, each an experienced professional dedicated to maintaining the highest standards in the gaming industry. The EDC jurors played a vital role in evaluating participant performances, thoroughly examining game control, communication, and technical skills.

Erwin Van Lambaart, Chairman of the ECA, said: “It has been a huge honour for Holland Casino to host the 16th European Dealer Championship in Venlo. I’d like to thank the team behind the scenes for their tremendous efforts in organising and hosting this prestigious event, and I’d like to thank the event’s sponsors without whom it simply wouldn’t happen. It has also been a great honour to be able to celebrate the amazing craftsmanship of live dealing. This event is a showcase offering a glimpse into the passion, professionalism, and hospitality that define the experiences of guests at our member casinos daily. Our dealers and croupiers must be recognised as the most vital ingredient at the forefront of customer interaction. They are the very essence of the land-based casino industry, and we really have celebrated the ‘best of the best’ in the field here in Venlo. This event gives us an opportunity to honour these skilled professionals, to highlight the remarkable achievements of our dealers and to say thank you for making live casino gaming what it is today.” 

Hermann Pamminger, General Secretary of the European Casino Association (ECA), remarked: “This year’s has been a truly phenomenal event. I would like to thank all the sponsors of this year’s competition who made it possible to stage this international celebration of land-based gaming talent. The ECA extends its gratitude to these leading companies from the European gaming industry for their continued commitment to the European Dealer Championship, ensuring its success and growth into the future.” 

The winner, Monaco-born Noemie Serra, said: ‘Being a croupier is the best job in the world. I am so thrilled to take home the top prize. I came through the dealer school for Société des Bains de Mer de Monaco in 2018 and have worked there ever since. It was an honour to represent them in this competition. My father also works as a dealer for SBM, so I suppose you could say that being a croupier is in my blood. The tournament has been intense and exhausting, but all the competitors have been so supportive throughout the event.’

Runner-up Jamie Cummins of Crown London said: ‘It is a huge honour to finish second in this prestigious event. I’ve loved every second of the event and my time with the other dealers. Since starting out at Genting Casino in Luton, it has always been a dream of mine to work in Mayfair, which I achieved with Aspinalls and Crown. Doing so well in this competition is right up there, though. I was at the tournament in London a few years ago, which was an outstanding event, but this one has topped even that. I’d advise any croupier anywhere in Europe to have a go at this dealer championship. It’s an incredible experience.’ 

Second runner-up Asa Ekeret from Casino Copenhagen added: ‘I’m thrilled to have been recognised at this event. It has been tiring and gruelling, but just as in my job in Copenhagen, the other dealers have been amazingly supportive and encouraging. We’ve picked each other up and kept each other going. It’s been an amazing experience.’ 

The European Casino Association is excited to announce Grand Casino Lichtenstein as the next distinguished location for next year’s European Dealer Championship 2025, which will run from June 16 to 19.

Earn Daily Profit Sharing and Tokenized Rewards with Qzino Affiliate Program

Published

on

Why Today’s Affiliate Ecosystem Demands an Upgrade

The global iGaming landscape, and especially the crypto-casino sector, is undergoing explosive growth. Data from Yield Sec shows that the total gross profit of crypto casinos in 2024 reached approximately $81.4 billion — a three- to fourfold increase compared to two years before.

In parallel, the affiliate marketing market is also seeing significant expansion. According to SOFTSWISS, revenue generated via crypto affiliate services doubled in the first half of 2024 versus the same period in 2023. The upward trend continues in 2025: transaction activity is growing, and the number of engaged users in the crypto iGaming space keeps rising month after month.

Yet, most traditional crypto casino affiliate programs still rely on outdated models — CPA and RevShare — that come with notable drawbacks: limited flexibility, insufficient analytical transparency, delayed reward distribution, and negative carryover issues.

All these factors highlight the need for a new kind of affiliate ecosystem — transparent, mutually beneficial, and focused on long-term value. It is in this context that the Qzino affiliate program launches, redefining the role of affiliates in the crypto-iGaming industry.

Next-Generation Crypto iGaming Experience with Qzino

Qzino is a crypto-iGaming platform set to launch in fall 2025 (Explore the Qzino launch). The platform will feature over 10,000 games — from global hits to in-house titles — along with sports and esports betting powered by AI analytics, its own token,Qzino profit sharing model, provably fair crypto casino mechanisms, and tokenized affiliate rewards.

The Qzino profit sharing model is a core innovation — distributing 50% of the revenue daily among token holders. They receive daily passive income, ensuring long-term motivation to stay connected to the platform and benefit from its growth.

Behind the project stands a team of over 100 professionals with proven experience in building platforms ranked among the top-10 global crypto casinos. The platform operates under an official Anjouan Gambling License and utilizes provably fair crypto casino technology.

Qzino Crypto Affiliate Program — Launch Roadmap with Rewards

The Qzino affiliate program is structured in multiple phases, ensuring sub-affiliate earnings, community expansion, and transparent analytics at every stage:

  • Stage 1: Mini App — current phase. An initial opportunity to invite users through free-to-play mechanics with real value, no deposit, and no complex registration. All referred users are permanently linked to the affiliate and automatically transferred to the full Web3 platform after launch — continuing to generate revenue.
  • Stage 2: Platform launch & farming season — Fall 2025. The full platform goes live with gamified farming where users earn points for every bet. Affiliates receive dual rewards — a share of the platform’s profit and points for an upcoming airdrop, later converted into tokens.
  • Stage 3: TGE, Airdrop & Scaling — at this stage, tokenized affiliate rewards and daily profit sharing are launched. Affiliates benefit from the growth of lifetime revenue share, additional sub-affiliate earnings, and the advantages of participating in the highest-paying affiliate program in gambling, with up to 50% revenue share.

How Qzino Offers Daily Profit Sharing and Lifetime Revenue Share for Affiliates

The Qzino affiliate program offers affiliates not just commissions, but a multi-tiered earning system across all stages:

  • Revenue from each user — affiliates earn up to 50% revenue of the income generated by their referrals;
  • Airdrop points — every user activity brings affiliates points later converted into tokens;
  • Qzino tokens — provide access to the Qzino profit sharing model with daily profit sharing and asset growth potential;
  • Sub-affiliate networks — affiliates can build their own network by inviting other partners and earning from their activity — creating long-term passive income in crypto affiliate partnerships.

Qzino crypto casino provides personal support at all collaboration stages, regular contests, challenges, exclusive drops and bonuses for active partners. The program is a crypto affiliate worldwide — open globally with no geographic restrictions.

All of this is managed in a dedicated affiliate dashboard, providing real-time commission tracking, so affiliates can monitor their earnings and activity. The affiliate dashboard ensures data transparency, accessibility, and automatic updates.

Exclusive Early Affiliate Rewards with Qzino Crypto Casino

Currently, the Qzino platform and affiliate program are in the Pre-Launch phase via MiniApp on Telegram — a unique moment for early affiliates.

The potential audience has not yet been distributed among partners, and most users are still available for acquisition. This gives affiliates the opportunity to build their own referral base using the free MiniApp mechanics. Most importantly, all referred users are automatically transferred to the full Web3 platform after launch and remain permanently linked to the affiliate.

The Next Step for the Crypto iGaming Industry

The Qzino affiliate program offers up to 50% revenue share, tokenized affiliate rewards, a long-term profit-sharing model, and scalable income through sub-affiliate earnings. Unlike traditional systems, Qzino doesn’t rely on outdated models — it establishes a new industry standard where partnership means real involvement in the project’s growth and profits, from early MiniApp participation to becoming a true co-owner of the ecosystem.

Qzino: join as a partner — emerge as a co-owner.

Visit the official website, apply now, and join the Qzino Affiliate Program — be part of the next generation of transparent, profit-sharing partnerships.

Whale.io Introduces Crock Dentist Game and Exclusive RWA NFT Collection

Published

on

Whale.io, an online casino and sportsbook platform, has announced the launch of Crock Dentist, a new addition to its Whale Originals game series. This release marks the first time the classic game, known for its engaging tooth-pulling mechanics, has been adapted as an original online casino title. Alongside the game, Whale.io is minting 1,000 Crock Dentist NFTs, available on its platform, providing holders with access to airdrop rewards tied to the game’s performance. These digital collectibles are designed to connect in-game assets with real-world value, aligning with the broader Real World Asset (RWA) integration trend in gaming and blockchain.

Crock Dentist: A New Whale Original

Crock Dentist reimagines the traditional game as a digital casino experience, combining familiar gameplay with randomized outcomes and modern graphics. As part of the Whale Originals portfolio, it is designed to deliver a seamless and entertaining experience for players. The game operates with a 97% Return to Player (RTP), meaning 3% of each wager contributes to a house edge, which is redistributed to the holders through an airdrop system.

Crock Dentist NFTs: Minting, Earning, Trading

Whale.io’s Crock Dentist NFTs introduce a novel way for players to engage with the platform’s ecosystem. The NFTs, limited to a supply of 1,000, can be minted directly on Whale.io’s website. Key features include:

  • Minting: Users can acquire a Crock Dentist NFT to participate in the platform’s reward system.
  • Earning: Each NFT entitles holders to 0.1% of airdrops funded by the game’s 3% house edge. Airdrops are distributed in $WHALE, the platform’s native token, at random intervals..
  • Trading: NFT holders can retain their assets to receive ongoing airdrops or trade them on secondary markets, based on their preferences.

The first weekend was an exclusive mint for Battlepass owners. It has been said that the public mint will open up for the public on Tuesday. Each user can mint up to 5 Crock NFTs and the mint price will increase daily until all 1000 NFTs are sold out. The airdrop pool grows with every spin played in Crock Dentist, creating a direct link between game activity and NFT holder rewards. Based on previous Whale Originals releases, the game performance is expected to grow consistently which translates to bigger airdrops for the NFT holders.

Transparency and Accessibility

Whale.io emphasizes transparency by maintaining publicly accessible wallet on its site:

  • Royalty Wallet: Finding all the info related to aftermarket transactions, buybacks, collection royalty and airdrops from the blockchain.

This approach ensures users can verify all activities on the blockchain, fostering trust and accountability. Airdrops are automatically sent to NFT holders’ wallets, requiring no additional actions beyond minting and holding.

Integration with $WHALE Token

The $WHALE token serves as the native currency within Whale.io’s ecosystem. Currently, users can utilize $WHALE to play games, purchase battle passes, or stake for additional benefits. With the upcoming Token Generation Event (TGE), the platform plans to introduce further utilities, enhancing the token’s role across its offerings. The launch of Crock Dentist and its NFT collection arrives as Whale.io prepares for its $WHALE TGE, a milestone that will expand the platform’s ecosystem. By minting Crock Dentist NFTs, users can join the community early and participate in the evolving reward structure. The limited supply of 1,000 NFTs underscores the exclusivity of this opportunity.

About Whale.io

Whale.io is an online casino and sportsbook platform known for its proprietary Whale Originals games and community-driven reward systems. Crock Dentist is now live on Whale.io, with NFT minting open to all users. Committed to transparency and innovation, Whale.io serves a global user base with a focus on integrating gaming and blockchain technology.
