Galaxy Gaming Tuesday announced it will showcase its new table game operating system, brand-new table games, and online content portfolio at this year’s Global Gaming Expo, October 7-10, at the Venetian Expo Center in Las Vegas
“We are thrilled to showcase our category-leading collection of table game brands that resonate with players,” said Galaxy Gaming President and CEO Matt Reback in a statement. “By combining these with our cutting-edge technology, we deliver enhanced table gaming experiences—both in the casino or card room and online. This powerful combination not only enhances player engagement but also drives exceptional results for operators.”
Galaxy will feature its operating system, Sapphire, at G2E. The game management system developed by table game experts features progressive jackpot options, Nebula sensors, and digital tracking capabilities.
The Galaxy operating system has a flexible electronic bonusing platform that powers a dynamic progressive. The company states that unlike any other progressive, the dynamic progressive adds an “electrifying twist” to Galaxy’s progressives and pay tables, with random pays multiplied by up to 10x each round.
Sapphire also features enhanced TableVisions with a fully customizable screen and integrated minimum/maximum table limits.
Galaxy’s table game roster includes 21+3, Perfect Pairs, and Lucky Ladies. There are also new additions including Roulette UP and Dynamic Progressive, both powered by the Galaxy operating system.
Making its debut at G2E, EZ Baccarat is now enhanced with Galaxy Gaming’s Golden Talons and Divine 9 side bets, at no additional cost. These popular side bets are available as enhancements to EZ Baccarat. Heads Up Hold’em, Player’s Edge 21, Deuces Wild Xtreme, and High Card Flush, also will be available to play at the Galaxy’s booth.
Galaxy Gaming licenses casino table games for live dealer and RNG online gaming. Titles like 21+3, Lucky Ladies, Perfect Pairs, Caribbean Stud Poker, and Buster Blackjack\ are available on over 3,000 of the most popular igaming sites worldwide. The company states that Galaxy’s online titles accounted for over 3.5 billion wagers in the last calendar year.
Operators are invited to visit Galaxy Gaming at Booth 4016.

Superior product gives Flutter key advantage
Flutter Entertainment’s existing product and tech to continue driving company growth and lead over competitors, say analysts
Product lead supports $21bn forecast: Flutter Entertainment’s 2027 revenues forecast of $21bn was the focus of much of the company’s investor day coverage. But the importance of product in U.S. online sports betting was another key point in explaining why the FanDuel parent company is leading the market and why, along with DraftKings, it benefits from a deep structural advantage in this key domain.
With regard to the revenue targets, JMP said it is usually skeptical of multi-year targets “as more often than not, expectations are not met.” Flutter’s story however was more convincing, given its track record and management belief “that it can generate $5bn+ of EBITDA in the next several years,” which would mean even more upside on the shares for a stock that is “+115% in the last two years vs. the Russell 3000 +53%.”
ESPN Bet’s options and BetMGM’s Angstrom proposition
Following up on the CDC Gaming feature on ESPN Bet during last week’s SBC Summit in Lisbon, Portugal – Matt Howard, partner at Propus Partners, and Marc Thomas, chief executive of Algosport, provided their insights on the company as it enters a key period.
Early days: Both commented that the brand awareness ESPN brings to the table means it is too early to write it off as a potential major player in U.S. sport betting. However, following early launch-related buzz, “product and marketing now come to the forefront,” said Howard, and “consistently good marketing messages alongside incremental regular product improvements can grow the share.”
