Technology Introduced to Prevent Cheating in Online Gambling
   
  Representatives of QSI were on Capitol Hill to showcase its patented technology that radically reduces or eliminates most forms of online cheating, promotes fair play and enables consumers to participate in a safe and regulated online gambling environment.

TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCED TO PREVENT CHEATING IN ONLINE GAMING ---Washington, DC based Quixotic Solutions, Inc., (QSI) announced that QSI’s Steven Davis, the company’s CEO, and QSI President, Cheryl Campbell were on Capitol Hill May 15, 2001 to showcase its patented technology that radically reduces or eliminates most forms online cheating, promotes fair play and enables consumers to participate in a safe and regulated online gaming environment. This event was covered by representatives of the news media and a segment was aired on FOX News, Channel 5.

“What we have actually done is taken something complicated and made it simple,” explained QSI CEO Steven B. Davis. “We have created a way to fairly shuffle cards over a network between a game server and a player even if they are thousands of miles apart. It can work over wireless, Internet, or other network backbones. We combined that element with well-known security technologies, like digital signatures, that allows the creation of a new kind of electronic contract that can be used to protect the consumer. Players, regulators and game providers have the ability to monitor and independently reconstruct any game.”

“We heard the complaints that there was no way to protect the consumer. In fact, many people have said that you could not even detect if a game was rigged or played unfairly on the Internet,” said QSI President Cheryl Campbell. “With our Honest Gaming Software, it is possible to secure the game itself. Every event in that game, whether it’s a roll of the dice, the play of a card or the spin of a wheel can be determined if it is fair and honestly played.”

Davis added: “What our technology does is give the player the ability to independently verify, reconstruct and prove that the game was played fairly. And if there are any problems, consumers can take the reconstructed game to a legal or financial authority to seek proper restitution.”

Legislation continues on The Hill calling for a ban on Internet gambling in response to consumer complaints about fraud and game manipulation in the online gambling environment. Internet gaming is currently unregulated. QSI’s Honest Gaming Software, which utilizes patented game protocol and various cryptographic functionalities, provides a framework for regulated gaming and can help address other legislative concerns including access controls and gambling restrictions. The technology creates a safe environment for consumers and promotes the development of a national policy where sensible regulation can be effectively implemented.

“We believe that this software forms a foundation that will set a national and international standard for online gaming regulation,” Campbell said.

QSI’s affiliated company, IT GlobalSecure uses security as an enabler for its clients’ business growth. The company is founded on the principle that by adding privacy, trust and transaction reliability to business operations, customers in both vertical and emerging regional markets will experience value-added growth heretofore unseen in the security field. Both companies share the same management team under co-founders Steve Davis, CEO, and Cheryl Campbell, President.

Betfit.com Releases New Betting Exchange for Online Gambling

  Unlike traditional sportsbooks, betting exchanges increase the odds and resemble real-life betting situations.

 Silva’s Global Entertainment, SA, a company settled in Costa Rica and formed by European entrepreneurs with several years of experience as punters, announces the launch of the new betting exchange BetFit, available at Betfit.com. Betfit’s present goal is to attract clients of the traditional sportsbooks who understand the way betting exchanges operate and are willing to benefit from those advantages, as well as aim at the already installed betting exchanges markets and online gamblers.

Executive Director of Betfit.com, Ricardo Silva, explained, “A betting exchange is a facility where consumers place bets between each other on the outcome of a certain event. Like real world bets about the outcome of a certain game, one person bets on a certain outcome and another bets against it. Consumers do not bet with the fixed odds offered by a traditional sportsbook. On the contrary, they negotiate the prices of their own bets, thus obtaining better odds. With betting exchanges, consumers make more profits and have more fun.”

The betting industry was shaken with the introduction of the betting exchange industry. Gamblers’ betting patterns and habits rapidly changed when they received the ability to bet against the outcomes of certain events, which is not available with traditional sportsbooks. A new era began, changing the betting industry forever and even changing the name of the “sportsbooks” to “traditional sportsbooks,” in order to differentiate from the new ones.

Changes are also being made in the new betting exchange industry as well. Being new, there is a lot to expand and to develop. An increasing number of traditional sportsbook clients are changing to the new betting system, and traditional sportsbooks themselves are using the concept in order to makeup from the bets accepted from their clients. The market is growing on a daily basis, and demand increases proportionally.

About BefFit
BetFit’s software has a user-friendly interface and was launched in the first day of the Chinese New Year of the Rooster, in February. A new, more powerful and featured version of the Betfit.com betting exchange software platform will be released in mid-2005, allowing multilingual capabilities and multi-currency betting among others features. Some of these new features have never before been seen in this industry and will revolutionize the way it operates.
So, have fun with the new online gambling!

A Profile of the Online Gambler fom Online Gambling Sources

 
  Online gambling at offshore sports books surpassed the handle of Las Vegas casinos last year for the first time ever. This article profiles the typical customer of an online gaming site.

A PROFILE OF THE ONLINE GAMBLER By Robert Jay - Online gambling on sports in America has surpassed the total handle of Las Vegas casino-based sports books.
A December, 2002 Congressional Report by the US General Accounting Office stated that online gaming reached new heights in 2002 as worldwide revenues topped $4 billion. Of that amount, over $2 billion was wagered by US residents. Bear Stearns backed up these findings by estimating the worldwide market would have been in excess of $5 billion had many American credit card providers not discontinued offering transfers to offshore sports books. Meanwhile, the Nevada handle on sports books was less than $2 billion in 2002; this is the first time in a decade that the Nevada handle dropped below $2 billion.

Certainly, part of the decline in the Nevada handle can be blamed on less Americans traveling and an overall downturn in the economy. Perhaps an even bigger factor, however, is the proliferation of slot machines in Nevada casinos. Slots now represent 70% of the profits of Nevada casinos and offer a 6% hold while sports books have an average 3% hold. Thus, it is not surprising that sports books are losing square footage overall in casinos while slots are gaining in space allocated to them.

According to Debbie Silverman of Gone Gambling, an industry portal site, another big growth area for offshore sports books is that many local bookmakers are referring business to the offshore books for safety. Large players are also moving to the internet due to more attractive odds available from the offshore books than are available in Las Vegas. In addition, many offshore sports books attract players with bonuses that you won’t find on The Strip. Anthony Wayne, spokesperson for licensed Curacao-based sports book EWINNER.com, said that his company offers a 15% initial deposit bonus to new depositors. “With all of the new competitors out there,” said Wayne, “you almost have to do something special to try to attract new players.”

The bonus situation is not any different in the other popular areas of online gambling, notably bingo and lottery services. Bingo House offers a 100% initial bonus, according to Bonnie Edwards, director of marketing. Edwards’ other site, Lucky Lotto offers a free $7 bet. The demographics, however, are quite different. “Our players are predominantly females 40-50 years old,” said Edwards.

The Congressional Report goes on to state that one million Americans gamble online every day. One of the reasons for the large amount of online sports bettors is the similarity between the typical sports gambler and the typical heavy internet user, according to David Lee, of Mandalay Bay casino. Lee stated that 77% of online sports gamblers are men. They tend to be single, 25-34 years old, college educated, and with incomes between $40,000 and $80,000 per year. A survey of 2900 internet users by online gaming industry research company, The River City Group, backs up Lee’s findings. The 2001 study indicated 74% of online gamblers are male and that they are among the youngest, highest income, highest education group on the internet. They are also technologically advanced, early adopters, and heavy wireless users.

Jay Davis, president of Triumph Marketing, a marketing agency that has clients in the online gaming industry, tends to agree with the conclusion of the studies. “A typical customer for an online sports book is a male 25-40 with an average income of $70,000 per year. They are typically college educated and avid sports fans.”

Future growth of the online gaming industry will come more rapidly on a worldwide basis than in the United States, says the Congressional Report. Americans, which now represent half of the online gaming revenues, are projected to be only 24% of the $14.5 billion worldwide market anticipated in 2006. Japan is of extreme interest to the industry because its household internet penetration of greater than 80% is the largest in the world and it is a country nearly as obsessed with sports as America is. Countries with even more long-term promise for the industry are China and Malaysia where already two times more people have gambled on the internet than have purchased a product online.

“Without question, the largest areas for growth are South America and the Far East due to increased internet usage and cultures immersed with a long history of gambling,” added Davis. “These markets have only a small percentage of the saturation levels of North America and western Europe and offer operators markets where the cost of acquisition (of new customers) is remarkably lower.”

While international markets clearly offer an opportunity for expansion, the offshore industry can continue to attract more new players to the industry in all countries if it satisfies new player concerns. According to the River City Group, the primary concerns of potential new players include: a hassle free experience; quick payments; easy instructions; attractive web sites; easy registration; secure credit card transactions; certificates from consumer protection agencies; better odds; ability to play for free; 24/7 customer service.

Since the first internet gaming sites began appearing in 1995, 73 governments have approved some form of internet gambling. The industry has grown from 900 to 1400 sites in the last two years, according to The Internet Gambling Report. In recent months, however, most industry analysts believe the amount of sites has actually declined. The number of customers is not growing at the same pace as the number of sites and “consolidation among operators is the most logical transgression within the industry,” said Davis.

Today, only two states, Utah and Hawaii, have no forms of gambling permitted. Although the United States has clearly not endorsed internet sports gaming, it is interesting to note that more than 80% of horse racing bets are now made away from the track at off track betting locations and through other media like interactive television.

One other conclusion of the Congressional Report is that most online players would prefer to play with a “name brand” casino rather than those virtual unknown offshore books available on the internet. With market share at the Las Vegas casinos continuing to decline to the offshore sports books, casino operators can only hope that they will soon be endorsed to operate online again.
