Claudia Sheinbaum dismissed the statements of Ricardo Monreal about the drafting of a new rule, although she announced that her government will approach the sector to work on crime prevention.
Mexico.- The Federal Government does not have a new law to regulate casinos on the agenda, assured President Claudia Sheinbaum, who pointed out that the head of the Ministry of the Interior, Rosa Icela Rodríguez, has the task of approaching the owners of these establishments to prevent acts of corruption, but that does not imply the drafting of a new law, something that, she insisted, is not among the intentions of her government.
In a press conference, the new Mexican president denied that a new Law of Games and Draws was being prepared, as stated by the coordinator of Morena in the Chamber of Deputies, Ricardo Monreal Ávila, who assured that the president would send this project to end extortions and contribute to improving tax collection.
"She (Sheinbaum) stated that, in the coming days or weeks, the Executive Power would be sending an initiative for a new law of games and draws, since it has not been modified since 1946," Monreal Ávila had said, generating expectations for the changes this could mean for the gambling industry in Mexico, although the president already discredited this version.
"No, at this moment there is no new law; what there is, is that Rosa Icela, is talking with those who own the casinos to, if there is corruption, report it immediately to avoid these schemes that could still be there in some servers that remained from the past era, before President López Obrador arrived," said Sheinbaum in a conference, dispelling rumors about a new norm. Even, the president clarified that although the current law related to these establishments is old, there is still no proposal to modify it.

It is worth noting that at the end of 2018, in the last days of the administration of former President Enrique Peña Nieto, a 15-year extension was granted to the Mexican Hippodrome Administrator, which extended the permit for the operation of more than fifty casinos until 2033.
The latest release from Pragmatic Play is an aquatic adventure with winnings of up to 5,000x.
Press release – Pragmatic Play has launched "Wild Wild Pearls", an aquatic adventure where golden pearls and double multipliers can unlock winnings of up to 5,000x.
Poseidon's wilds act as a collection symbol in this oceanic getaway of 6x4. Whenever a wild lands on reels one and two, adjacent money symbols are awarded on reels three to six, forming a winning line from left to right.
When the collection occurs and a reel is fully stacked with money symbols, the total win is increased with the multiplier located above that reel: 2x on reels three and four and 4x on reels five and six. One of the four fixed jackpots with values of up to 100x can also appear on reel six.
If wilds appear on the first two reels along with a bonus symbol or a super bonus symbol on reel three, free spins or super free spins are activated, respectively. 10 free spins are awarded in either of the two features, where there are more money symbols on the reels, with 3x and 5x multipliers above the reels in the super free spins.
The feature can be reactivated with five additional free spins up to two times. In the super free spins, each time the feature is reactivated, the multipliers above the reels are doubled.
"Wild Wild Pearls" is the latest addition to Pragmatic Play's growing range of premium slots that includes the recent releases "Money Stacks Megaways" and "Irish Crown", highly successful among the audience.
