It has been a busy time both in the U.S. and internationally in the casino and online gambling industries.

Atlantic City Gaming Establishments Support Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and throughout the month, Atlantic City casinos are coming together in support.

Several Atlantic City establishments, including Bally’s, Golden Nugget, and Ocean, will be offering pink-themed cocktails, with proceeds from each drink going towards charitable causes.

Additionally, numerous events will take place throughout the month at Atlantic City Casinos to raise awareness and raise funds to support cancer research.

Dutch Online Gambling Deposit Limits Set for 2024

The Dutch government has enacted new regulations concerning deposit limits for online gambling.

This regulatory change, which came into effect on October 1, is part of an effort to promote responsible gambling practices and protect players from potential financial harm.

Under the new rules, players will face restrictions on the maximum amount they can deposit into their online gambling accounts each month. In a calendar month, players will have a net deposit limit of seven hundred euros. That amount comes out to a little over $770 U.S. dollars. If someone wishes to exceed that limit, proof of sufficient income will be required.

Additionally, new customers who wish to have a deposit limit above 350 euros, which is over $380 U.S. dollars, will be contacted to show awareness of the risks associated with gambling.

These new regulations aim to curb excessive gambling and ensure that players are not at risk of incurring significant financial losses.
