Pleased to see a blue finish.

Good video presentation from Derek Lew - short, to the point and punchy. He comes across far better than Tony Fabrizi.

so, during this virus crisis, esports can continue

& is seeing growth
& betting on eSports results can take place while betting on real physical sports events can not happen since all physical events have stopped, & look set to not start again for quite a while (at least the end of May/June/July phps ?, with no audiences)

so, betting lovers will have moved from betting on physical events to betting on eSports events
(eg. the Grand National
& a racing car event this weekend had a massive number of on-line viewers)

seems surprising to me that the BLU share price hasn't risen noticeably in response to the likely boost to turnover & possibilities

He obviously enjoyed your teaching hazl. I thought it was a very good interview with Chester King.

Virtual Grand National being run today at 5pm.I would rather watch the real one but this will be a great example of "esports" in action. And no horses will die!

I agree that the finger pay investment is exciting it’s just a shame we only own 0.9% of that company.

[remarkomsoc] 31/3/2020 20:05

They also have a share of finger pay which for me is the most exciting aspect of the company.

I was just looking up something on FFWD and that reminded me how I came to invest in BLU. FFWD had a stake in Satochipay which it sold to BLU in exchange for shares in BLU. Fairly soon after that FFWD sold its shares in BLU at which point I bought shares in BLU as I liked Satochipay. FFWD continued with its portfolio of investments one of which was Leap Gaming which has done well and continues to do so. Indeed the current Coronavirus crisis is seen as a further boost as people turn to e sports as real sport is suspended.
I hope that BLU’s new direction will be as successful as Leap Gaming appears to be be for FFWD. Certainly seems BLU is in the right place at the right time.

Quentin Martin: Luckbox – Esports can bridge COVID-19 divides

As the world adapts to the new sporting landscape amidst the COVID-19 outbreak, Luckbox’s CEO Quentin Martin has claimed that esports will be able to replace traditional betting sectors for punters as a short term solution.

A nightmare 2020 has seen the global sporting calendar disrupted, with two of betting’s most profitable events the Grand National and Euro 2020 Championships suspended indefinitely.

Industry stakeholders are in urgent need of a replacement is needed to keep customers engaged and entertained in these dire circumstances.

Martin stated: “While the esports calendar has also been affected, it’s much more resilient in this situation because matches can be played online, without players needing to be in the same place. While having fans live in an arena generates a great atmosphere, it doesn’t make too much difference to the hundreds of thousands of fans watching via live stream.

“So far, the early indications are that esports betting volumes will increase – we’ve seen a 54 per cent increase in new player registrations in the past week – since it was announced the English Premier League would be postponed.

“It figures that players who enjoy sports betting are more inclined to give esports a try, with little else to bet on. Many sports fans are self-isolating or in lockdown and esports is pretty much the only show in town at the moment.”

The esports betting website refers to the ease of which competitive tournaments can be competed as a major factor as to why the betting industry can rely on esports. Whilst any tournament would ideally be played offline and in a venue, it is not necessary for esports.

Competitions such as the League of Legends European Championship and CS:GO’s ESL Pro League will not only continue but, in the case of CS:GO, have seen viewership increases.

The Luckbox CEO concluded: “Clearly, these are challenging times for many people across the world but, for many, esports and gaming is a welcome distraction.

“Perhaps now is the time fans of traditional sports will take a look at esports and realise what all the fuss is about.”
