What is 888 Dragons?
Global operator Bet365 has confirmed plans to cut around 340 jobs in response to increased regulatory and tax-related costs.
The job cuts, which represent approximately 3% of Bet365’s workforce, will be made across the company’s offices in Stoke-on-Trent, Malta and Gibraltar.
Bet365 attributed the job cuts to a “highly competitive trading environment, plus increased regulatory and tax-related costs”.

Entain emphasised offshore operators do not employ the same player protection measures and anti-money laundering standards that licensed companies must.
About 888 Dragons
“A great Vegas trip is about making the most of everything the city has to offer,” said Sean McBurney, chief commercial officer and regional president of Caesars Entertainment. “Whether that’s staying at an iconic resort, seeing a headliner, or taking in panoramic views from the High Roller, these offers bring together some of Las Vegas’ most memorable experiences at an exceptional value.”
To sweeten the deal, Caesars is serving complimentary daily breakfast for visitors staying at Caesars Palace, Paris, and The Vanderpump Hotel. Stays at the Flamingo and LINQ are given $50 daily food and beverage credit.
Caesars, of course, isn’t the only major casino participating in the “Vegas 5-Day Sale.” MGM Resorts, which operates the most casinos on the Strip, has slashed Bellagio rooms by 25% and is incentivizing guests with $100 in daily F&B credit. MGM Grand rooms are 50% off.
