Men’s Games 

The analysis also encompassed betting behavior in men’s NCAA games. Despite the men’s Championship game showing a 139% increase in bets over the baseline, the percentage increase in betting was notably lower compared to women’s games. 

A likely explanation for this difference lies in the higher baseline of individual bettors in men’s games, resulting in lower percentage increases. Nevertheless, men’s games consistently attracted more bets throughout the tournament. 

According to Rony Vexelman, VP of Marketing at Optimove, “As the WNBA season is about to tip off on May 14, it is doing so, with a generational player. The substantial boost in overall interest in women’s basketball catalyzed by Caitlin Clark is extraordinary Her influence on boosting betting, TV viewership and more is already starting to drive a new women’s basketball economy in the trillions.

Calling all treasure hunters, thrill seekers and intrepid explorers with a thirst for the unknown – this month, popular premium casino software provider, Swintt, is inviting you back on an epic journey through the sands of time in its action-packed slot, Egypt King Book Hunt.

Set to a backdrop of a long-forgotten temple where mystic relics abound, Egypt King Book Hunt is the third instalment of the popular SwinttPremium series and this time combines simple gameplay and classic graphics and sound with the studio’s much-loved “Book” free spins feature.

Activated whenever three or more of the iconic ‘Book’ symbols appear anywhere on the reels, players will first be prompted to leaf through the pages of an ancient tome until one icon is chosen at random to be the game’s lucky symbol, after which a series of 10 free spins will get underway.

During these bonus games, any instances of the lucky symbol that complete a payline will expand to fill their entire reel – and what’s more, payouts will be awarded for all winning combos regardless of whether the symbols are adjacent or not. On top of that, further free spins can be won for landing additional book symbols and players can even opt to buy into the feature directly.

With Egypt King Book Hunt being available to play with 5 or 10 fixed paylines, players will be able to customise their experience to the level of variance that they’re most comfortable with and they’ll also have the chance to try and double any winnings they collect in an optional risk feature.

David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “The fact that the pyramids have stood for thousands of years is testament to them being a design classic – and we feel our Premium slots fall into much the same category! Combining iconic graphics and sound, intuitive gameplay and popular ‘Book’ free spins, we’re sure Egypt King Book Hunt will be a great addition.”
