One of the UK’s leading betting aggregators, betting.bet, has introduced the Free Bet Wheel, a new free-to-play tool designed to increase user retention and interaction. Tied to the weekend’s Premier League football, this gamified feature offers users the opportunity to earn free bets and a weekly £100 cash reward.

Midnite is the new official UK betting and casino partner of the World Championship, Snooker’s greatest event, which will run from April 19 to May 5.

To celebrate the partnership, Midnite has created a FREE limited edition lager – with one free beer available per person – which will be served at a local pub throughout the tournament.

The one-off lager will be served at The Graduate, an iconic Sheffield pub a short walk from The Crucible, with fans able to enjoy a new beer on tap while the World Championship comes to the city.

Midnite has partnered with London-based brewery Drop Project to bring the concept to life. Drop Project creates the freshest, premium flavoursome beers with consistent high-quality results, and pushes creative boundaries and brews the beers that both inspire their passions for the industry and our lifestyles.

A Midnite spokesperson, commented: “We have worked with Drop Project to bring fans a Midnite lager that they can enjoy throughout the whole tournament. We wanted to create something tangible that snooker fans can enjoy throughout, and to have been able to create our own beer is something we’re pleased with.

“The World Snooker Championship brings real excitement to the city, and fans can head straight from The Crucible, to The Graduate and enjoy a pint or two of our specially brewed lager, just for the occasion.”

Midnite is providing the beer free of charge – one free drink per person of Midnite Lager Only and for ticket holders to the Snooker World Championship (18+). Redeem by showing your matchday ticket at The Graduate. While stock lasts.

Snooker fans at this year’s World Championship will get the chance to pocket £25,000 if they witness a 147 maximum break – thanks to bookies Midnite.

Midnite are the official betting and casino partner of this year’s tournament. To celebrate, they are pledging to give away the cash prize to a random member of the Crucible crowd whenever a maximum goes in.

The Midnite Maximum will see a seat number randomly selected at the start of every session and – if a player completes a 147 break – the lucky fan in the audience will collect £25,000.

A 147 maximum is the holy grail of snooker achievements and there have been 14 in crucible history – including two during the tournament in 2023.

Jackson Page made snooker history this week, becoming the first player to complete two maximum breaks in a single pro match on his way to victory over Allan Taylor in the World Championship qualifiers.

Midnite’s sportsbook was launched in 2018 by Nick Wright and Daniel Qu, who previously created daily fantasy sports platform Dribble in partnership with Sky Bet. Midnite added horse racing and casino to the product mix in 2023 and Midnite’s team has grown from 60 to 110 over the past 12 months.

Co-founder Wright said: “At Midnite, we’re passionate about bringing fans closer to the games they love.

“The Crucible theatre is one of the most intimate venues in world sport and it is never more electric than when a player is closing in on a maximum break.

“With Midnite Maximum, our aim is to bring fans even closer to the emotion and tension that the players experience when achieving snooker perfection.”
