No matter which way you swing – Men’s, Women’s, Singles or Doubles – you’ll find all the Roland Garros clay-court betting action you can handle at one place: Titan Bet.

Leading the men’s front and seeking a sixth French title is returning champion, Rafael Nadal. But you can be sure that season-sensation Novak Djokovic will be doing his very best to keep that from happening. Djokovic is closely trailed by the usual suspects, Robin Soderling and Roger Federer, but also Berdych, Melzer and Ferrer, all three of whom have played consistently well this season. Bottom line: it’s still anyone’s game.

On the women’s side, the outcome is as difficult to predict as is correctly pronouncing the contenders’ surnames! Wozniacki, Goerges, Petkovic, Azarenka, Na Li, Stosur, Schiavone – you can bet that each one of these hard-as-nails ladies will be fighting her way to the finish.

Titan Bet is offering the season’s most competitive tennis odds, alongside a vast array of specials, live betting options and a new £25 in free bets sign-up offer. But it’ll all be over faster than Nadal can serve up an ace – so slide over to Titan Bet and place your Roland Garros bets today!

eCOGRA eGAPs Revised to Meet Common Regulatory Trends

New requirements meet nine key European criteria for operators

The independent player protection and standards body eCOGRA has published a revised version of its widely respected Generally Accepted Practices (eGAPs) at www.ecogra.com/egap in a move that positions the organisation’s accredited operators at the forefront of European regulatory development.

The eGAPs provide a professional framework for safe, fair, efficient and responsible business activity and provide guidance for the 153 tier one online gambling sites accredited by the London-based organisation.

Andrew Beveridge, the chief executive of eCOGRA, says that the revisions have been undertaken mainly to ensure that eCOGRA’s requirements encompass the CEN Responsible Remote Gambling Measures, but that the eGAPs are also a comprehensive and valuable guide that will meet the appropriate requirements of most regulatory authorities.

"The regulatory landscape now evolving in Europe has seen a growing number of nations opting for a competitive but strictly regulated online gambling market, and decisions are likely to be increasingly informed by the required measures of the CEN Workshop Agreement which were framed earlier this year," Beveridge explains.

"By aligning our eGAPs with these recommendations, which cover nine key areas of activity, we not only provide a relevant and current roadmap to our accredited sites, but offer an expert framework useful to other operators committed to meeting requirements that are largely common to most regulatory initiatives," he added.

"Operators who have achieved eCOGRA seal status should comply with the latest developments for CEN Responsible Remote Gambling Measures."

CEN is the European Committee for Standardisation, one of three European Standardisation Organisations officially recognised by the European Union (http://www.cen.eu/). CEN inter alia draws up voluntary technical specifications, such as a CEN workshop agreement, to help facilitate a single market for European industry and consumers across its members in 31 European countries.

The 9 areas covered by the CEN Workshop Measures are:

• 1. The protection of vulnerable customers
• 2. The prevention of underage gambling
• 3. Combating fraud
• 4. Protection of privacy
• 5. Fair gaming
• 6. Accurate customer payments
• 7. Responsible marketing
• 8. Customer satisfaction
• 9. Safe operating environment

Some 134 detailed requirements under these headings are included in the recommendations and have been enshrined in the revised eCOGRA document.

The recommendations were developed through consensus across a wide range of remote gambling stakeholders – from experts on problem gambling and players to industry representatives and addiction and criminology academics – illustrating a real desire to work together to ensure that consumer protection issues are fully addressed as important EU developments unfold.

Titan Casino unveils an all new look and feel in line with other Titan brands Titan Poker and Titan Bet, for an improved user experience.

Titan Casino is pleased to announce the launching of a new website and casino lobby.

The new Titan Casino now reflects the design of sister sites Titan Poker and Titan Bet for a single unified online gaming mega-brand.

While the Titan Casino games remain the same, the website and casino lobby have been fully redesigned for an improved user experience including additional information and easier navigation.

In terms of the Titan Casino promotions, a popular draw for online casino players, the new Promotions page makes it easier for site visitors to locate the exact promotion they’re looking for. Instead of a single page listing all the casino promotions, it is now conveniently divided into four separate categories marked Welcome Bonus, New Promos, Ongoing Promos and Members Only Promos respectively.

Players will also enjoy the additional information on individual games. For example, each new game (such as Kong: The 8th Wonder of the World and Iron Man 2) has a full page write-up delineating the benefits and highlights of the game.

Each game type (such as blackjack, slots, roulette, etc.) also has additional information to help new players get started including sections on game history, game strategy and game glossary. While the rest of the site has been translated into an additional 12 languages, these particular pages are only available in English for the time being.

In addition to the changes to the website, the Titan Casino lobby has also undergone a complete overhaul. Not only is it more aesthetically pleasing, it is also easier for players to navigate and find their favorite games.

To get started, players simply need to download Titan Casino (free of charge), log in and click on the blue Games button in the bottom right corner of the casino lobby.
