August 12 – Russian bookmaker 1xBet – that has rapidly established a position in the international, often unregulated, betting market – has suspended its UK betting service following reports of it operating a ‘pornhub’ casino and complaints from punters unable to cash out their winnings.ġxBet raised its marketing profile for the start of this season with a series of big club sponsorships including with Barcelona, Liverpool and Chelsea (it was already a sponsor of Tottenham Hotspur).
