what Evo do um you know if Evo's done what Evo do um you know if Evo's done something then someone else will either something then someone else will either something then someone else will either copy it or try and reinv what's just
copy it or try and reinv what's just copy it or try and reinv what's just been innovated and do something slightly
been innovated and do something slightly been innovated and do something slightly different but they would probably never
different but they would probably never different but they would probably never have got there in the first place even
have got there in the first place even have got there in the first place even hadn't done the first Innovation so the
hadn't done the first Innovation so the hadn't done the first Innovation so the concept of multipliers everyone's got
concept of multipliers everyone's got concept of multipliers everyone's got those now on their games or has got
those now on their games or has got those now on their games or has got multiplier games but that came from Evo
multiplier games but that came from Evo multiplier games but that came from Evo and that came from lightning roulette a
and that came from lightning roulette a and that came from lightning roulette a game I hastened to add that I I trashed
game I hastened to add that I I trashed game I hastened to add that I I trashed in my video review uh when I first saw
in my video review uh when I first saw in my video review uh when I first saw it because I couldn't think why he would
it because I couldn't think why he would it because I couldn't think why he would want to take less money on a straight up
want to take less money on a straight up want to take less money on a straight up bet for the chance of getting a 500x
bet for the chance of getting a 500x bet for the chance of getting a 500x multiply it just didn't make sense to me
multiply it just didn't make sense to me multiply it just didn't make sense to me but uh I was
but uh I was but uh I was wrong and yeah it's become the most
wrong and yeah it's become the most wrong and yeah it's become the most successful game that Evo have produced
successful game that Evo have produced successful game that Evo have produced today so so um but that just that
today so so um but that just that today so so um but that just that concept of multipliers has been now has
concept of multipliers has been now has concept of multipliers has been now has gone through all of the all of the games
gone through all of the all of the games gone through all of the all of the games so every game's got multiply game and
so every game's got multiply game and so every game's got multiply game and then all the other Li Casino providers
then all the other Li Casino providers then all the other Li Casino providers will now start to copy that concept and
will now start to copy that concept and will now start to copy that concept and when they've caught up so everyone else when they've caught up so everyone else when they've caught up so everyone else is in catch up to Evo um where we are in
is in catch up to Evo um where we are in is in catch up to Evo um where we are in live dealer at the moment we've got more
live dealer at the moment we've got more live dealer at the moment we've got more RNG creeping into live than we've ever
RNG creeping into live than we've ever RNG creeping into live than we've ever had before and that's because the games
had before and that's because the games had before and that's because the games are becoming more complicated um they're
are becoming more complicated um they're are becoming more complicated um they're more difficult to get through compliance
more difficult to get through compliance more difficult to get through compliance and and and Regulatory um licensing so RNG is a very
Regulatory um licensing so RNG is a very Regulatory um licensing so RNG is a very easy way to to do that because it's
easy way to to do that because it's easy way to to do that because it's cheaper um and it's easier to to license

every side bet every game had and all every side bet every game had and all that sort of things so I built a huge that sort of things so I built a huge that sort of things so I built a huge database of all the games every provider
database of all the games every provider database of all the games every provider had and then what games every Casino had
had and then what games every Casino had had and then what games every Casino had because at that time uh live games
because at that time uh live games because at that time uh live games weren't everywhere so if you were
weren't everywhere so if you were weren't everywhere so if you were looking for blackjack with a specific of
looking for blackjack with a specific of looking for blackjack with a specific of rules it's quite difficult to find it so
rules it's quite difficult to find it so rules it's quite difficult to find it so I wanted to hold all that data so I
I wanted to hold all that data so I I wanted to hold all that data so I could get the player to the right place
could get the player to the right place could get the player to the right place the difficulty I had was once I
the difficulty I had was once I the difficulty I had was once I collected all the data was being able to
collected all the data was being able to collected all the data was being able to create an interface at the front of it
create an interface at the front of it create an interface at the front of it that people could that people could that people could query to find the information they
query to find the information they query to find the information they wanted um so what I ended up doing was
wanted um so what I ended up doing was wanted um so what I ended up doing was using that data and then just finding a
using that data and then just finding a using that data and then just finding a way to be able to publish it on the site
way to be able to publish it on the site way to be able to publish it on the site and let people just manually look and let people just manually look and let people just manually look through it I couldn't actually make the

requirements into check GPT and it would requirements into check GPT and it would just do it all for me um it works yeah
just do it all for me um it works yeah just do it all for me um it works yeah pretty much I could get a working pretty much I could get a working pretty much I could get a working prototype anyway um using the data sets
prototype anyway um using the data sets prototype anyway um using the data sets I done so it's something I may look back
I done so it's something I may look back I done so it's something I may look back at but so I think data actually is
at but so I think data actually is at but so I think data actually is hugely important um if you can uh find
hugely important um if you can uh find hugely important um if you can uh find out a way a way to use it you got to
out a way a way to use it you got to out a way a way to use it you got to have the data and then you find out what
have the data and then you find out what have the data and then you find out what do I want to use that data for and how
do I want to use that data for and how do I want to use that data for and how can I monetize it so I've got all sorts
can I monetize it so I've got all sorts can I monetize it so I've got all sorts of ideas in my head all sorts of data
of ideas in my head all sorts of data of ideas in my head all sorts of data that I know if I collected that I could
that I know if I collected that I could that I know if I collected that I could monetize it like that it create a it
monetize it like that it create a it monetize it like that it create a it create a I would need a a real Tech and
