first_imgGas prices in Florida declined for the 30th consecutive day on Sunday. However, higher oil prices may soon put the brakes on that downward streak at the pumps.The state average of $2.70 is 6 cents less than a week ago and 21 cents less than last month. However, motorists are still paying nearly 50 cents more per gallon compared to last year.The most expensive gas price averages in Florida are in Miami ($2.85), West Palm Beach-Boca Raton ($2.84), and Crestview-Fort Walton Beach ($2.82)The least expensive gas price averages in Florida are in Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater ($2.58), Punta Gorda ($2.59), and Orlando ($2.61)Oil prices shot-up $3 on Friday, which usually increases the cost of producing gasoline. The increase in crude came after OPEC and Russia announced an agreement to raise oil production. While a production increase would normally put downward pressure on oil prices, it’s still unclear exactly how much more oil will be reintroduced into the market and which countries it will come from. The uncertainty is causing what’s considered to be a short-term increase in oil prices. Ultimately, oil prices are forecast to decline after the details are hammered out.On Friday, the price of oil settled at $68.58 per barrel – $3.50 more than the week before. Gasoline futures jumped 5 cents on the NYMEX.“This news could bring some volatility back to the pumps this week,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA – The Auto Club Group. “Gas prices could rise a couple pennies or simply level out. Anything more than that would require crude to make additional gains this week. Regardless, it’s encouraging that OPEC decided to raise production in hopes of avoiding a global supply deficit. That’s good news for motorists, because this should eventually lead to lower prices at the pump.”last_img read more

first_imgFRANCEThe French League enters its third week starting from Friday with the champions Monaco away at Metz. Monaco have continued from where they left off last campaign scoring goals with reckless abandon but equally failing to keep it tight at the back, conceding in successive league matches. Leaders LyonLeaders Lyon are home to Bordeaux in a testy encounter. Both teams are experiencing an unbeaten start to the new season and it remains to be seen if either team will let their guard down and record a first loss of the season on Saturday.Finally, on Sunday PSG complete with Neymar take on Toulouse at the Parc des Princes. The world record signing who made a goal scoring debut to his French League career away at Guingamp on Sunday will certainly be excitedly looking forward to his maiden home game at his new arena. 2017/18 German Bundesliga season commences on Friday night, defending champions Bayern Munich take on Bayer Leverkusen at the Allianz Arena. French Ligue 1 and Premier League action also continues, though early days, teams are gradually laying down a marker for the season.ENGLANDThe big game of the weekend in the Premier League sees the defending champions Chelsea take on Tottenham Hotspurs at Wembley Stadium-the adopted home ground for Spurs this season.Chelsea were shock losers at home last weekend to Burnley and will look to avoid successive defeats against a Tottenham side that looked convincing on the eye against Newcastle United.One major consolation for the Blues is their recent FA Cup semi-final success over Spurs at the Wembley Stadium back in April.Manchester United expectedly should nick maximum points away at Swansea City, to continue their bullish start to the league season, while Manchester City and Everton, complete with new £45million record signing Gylfi Sigurdsson, meet in a potentially mouth-watering encounter on Monday night, both teams managed by two former Barcelona teammates, Pep Guardiola and Ronald Koeman. GERMANYDefending champions Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen kickoff the new Bundesliga season at the Allianz Arena on Friday night. Bayern Munich has had a rather forgettable pre-season, churning out mixed results which certainly will make the most loyal fan uncomfortable.The visiting team lost the duo of Hakan Calhanoglu and Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez to AC Milan and West Ham United over the course of the summer transfer window and will be eager to settle down to life after the departure of both undisputed starters from the previous campaign.Last season’s surprise package RB Leipzig are away to Schalke 04 in what should be an interesting game considering the visiting team have lost the ‘X’ factor which they capitalised on in finishing as runner-up last season.RelatedThe Big Seven Matches This WeekendFebruary 2, 2018In “England”The Big Seven Matches This WeekendFebruary 23, 2018In “England”Martin KellyJune 30, 2017Similar postlast_img read more

first_imgTottenham Hotspur have moved above title rivals Chelsea and Newcastle United into third spot after a nervy 3-2 win against West Ham United at the Olympic Stadium.The away side took a quickfire 2-0 lead in four first half minutes through Harry Kane for a 2-0 halftime lead. Danish playmaker Christian Eriksen scored a third goal for Tottenham on the hour mark to become the highest scoring Danish player ever in the English Premier League (EPL).West Ham pulled one back through Javier Hernandez five minutes later before new signing Serge Aurier’s red card from two bookable offences gave the home side a massive lifeline. Senegalese midfielder Cheikh Kouyate pulled a goal back via a bullet header with fulltime whistle approaching but Slaven Bilic’s team couldn’t get the third goal they desperately needed to force a draw before the final whistle from centre referee Michael Oliver.The win takes Tottenham from 5th to 3rd position with 11 points to close the gap on pacesetters Manchester City and Manchester United (13 points) while West Ham United remain in 17th position and just above the relegation zone with 4 points only from their first six games of the season.RelatedPremier League Review (Tuesday): United, Tottenham Experience Contrasting Fortunes In The Title RaceNovember 29, 2017In “England”Carabao Cup Review: West Ham Stun London Rivals Tottenham In Comeback Win; Chelsea Survive Late Everton ScareOctober 26, 2017In “England”Premier League Review: Liverpool Thrash West Ham United To Go SecondFebruary 24, 2018In “England”last_img read more

Valery Bollier – Oulala – The year gone by

first_img Sportito makes LatAm debut in Brazil October 30, 2019 Share StumbleUpon Gaurav Assomull: Livepools – Fantasy numbers a realistic goal in India December 11, 2019 The daily fantasy sports industry has had quite a year in 2016 with legal battles raging throughout the USA, many of which are far from over, and a number of operators stepping things up a gear in Europe. The big two of DraftKings and FanDuel entered Europe, despite the costly court battles Stateside, and smaller operatos such as Mondogoal and Oulala switched to focusing their efforts on B2B measures in the latter part of the year.Valery Bollier, OulalaWe spoke to Valery Bollier, co-founder and CEO of Oulala, about the year gone by for the company and the industry as a whole.SBC: Has DFS grown throughout 2016 as you projected as the beginning?Valery: 2016 saw DFS changing its status. It went from a relatively unknown product to becoming the next big thing.As a result, many iGaming operators came to us directly to learn more about its potential. It is not an easy feat to foresee how and when a new market will cross the chasm between the early adopters and the mass market, but a simple look backwards can easily show us that 2016 will be remembered as the year when the crossing got started.SBC: What made you opt to take Oulala down the focused B2B route?Valery: The business plan that we wrote almost four years ago was written with one goal; that Oulala would become the leading DFS network for European football.But because DFS was such a novelty in Europe, we had to prove the traction of the market and show that our product was the most innovative. Launching a B2C site was therefore almost an obligation for us. Oulala.com is now used as a showcase when we speak to possible B2B partners.SBC: What changes need to be made in terms of game formats, or features, to keep ‘small time’ players coming back and to protect new players from sharks?Valery: This is a very strategic question and the future winners of our sector will most probably be the ones that will answer it in the most efficient manner.Benjamin Carlotti, the Oulala co-founder, and I carefully studied this question for the past four years and the answer can be summed up in one word; capping.If you cap guaranteed prizes, the amount that a customer can put in a league and the amount of teams that one single individual can build in one league then you create an ecosystem in which sharks will not findthe space and liquidity that they require. By implementing a simple capping policy, you can ensure that statisticians will not win over fans. In doing so, you offer integrity to your customers and you will most likely gain their loyalty.SBC: Will 2017 be a year of consolidation for the industry or do you expect to see new operators emerging?Valery: The situation in the States and in Europe is radically different. Overseas there is no doubt that the merger of the two giants, Draftkings and Fanduel, will have a serious impact on small operators and we must ask ourselves if there will still be space for them and for new operators.On the other hand, the merger is good news for Europe as the new entity will have even more power and funds to raise awareness of our new sector. Many new DFS operators will most likely emerge in 2017. In an early phase of market development, competition is critically needed, therefore we welcome them.SBC: Oulala itself has had a successful year winning the Fantasy Product SBC Award among others…what can we expect in 2017?Valery: We are proud to have won this prestigious award, which is also the only prize in Europe rewarding a DFS game. This was the perfect ending for a very rich year for Oulala. For the incoming year, we will now focus our energy on signing and deploying strong B2B partnerships with iGaming operators.More than 50 of them have approached us in 2016 because they wished to know more about what DFS could offer, so there is no doubt that 2017 will be an Oulala year!
