Illinois is gearing up for sports betting and new casinos.

Over the weekend, the Senate and Senate in Prairie passed Senate Bill 690, which is currently awaiting Governor JB Pritzker’s signature. In addition to the 10 casinos that already exist in Illinois, the bill will establish six new casinos in Walken, Rockford, Danville, South Suburbs, Williamson County, and downtown Chicago. It will grant sports betting licenses to locations that can seat an additional 17,000 people. In addition, the bill will give O’Hare and Midway airports the ability to implement slot machines, and two racetracks will be added, adding a total of five racetracks.

After the bill passed the House, Governor Pritzker seems very optimistic: 파친코

“Legalizing sports betting and expanding the game will create jobs both in and out of the state, from Rockford to Chicago to Walker Bluff, where job-hungry communities will see 10,000 new jobs,” he said in a statement. “After the Supreme Court legalized sports betting, I promised Illinois residents that sports betting will be a key component of my legislative agenda, so that I can compete with neighboring states and generate more revenue for the communities around Illinois.

“Game expansion in the state has been tried and failed for years. This effort has been successful thanks to leaders Terry Rink and Tony Munoz and talented and dedicated civil servants like Representatives Bob Rita and Mike Zalewski. Today is a win for the whole state.”

Pritzker wasn’t the only one who showed great support for SB 690. Jefferies Corp’s Equity analyst David Katz referred to the bill as “the most important game liberalization in the United States for more than a decade.”

“It presents a range of potential outcomes for businesses and is a fairly positive catalyst for equipment suppliers,” Katz added in a report released Monday morning. “With incremental competition expected in the future, the breadth of the expansion now poses questions and challenges for businesses, potentially offset by incentives to build land-based properties and increase gaming capacity. In short, the competitive environment becomes significantly more complex within Illinois and at every turn.”

Rivers Casino owner Rush Street Interactive was also pleased with the news this weekend.

“Thanks to Governor Pritzker’s leadership and the weekend overtime that the General Assembly submitted, we are thrilled to see that we can make history by legalizing sports betting and introducing our innovative, award-winning mobile platform to Illinois,” Rush Street Interactive President Richard Schwartz said in a statement. “Last week, we made history for the first time in Pennsylvania to launch an online sportsbook. We look forward to bringing the same top quality, award-winning products and services to the athletes in Illinois where we are based.”

Yeom Ki-hoon (40), acting coach of Suwon Samsung, expressed his sincere feelings to his fans. However, the reality of the team’s relegation was cold-blooded. Even Legend’s apology could not soothe the angry fans. Suwon fans even threw out red smoke bombs. Smoke bombs fell in front of the Suwon team including Yeom Ki-hoon. It was all the more regrettable because it was a retirement match for a veteran who devoted 13 years to serving his team in Suwon. 토토사이트

Yeom Ki-hoon’s earnest wish did not come true. Suwon tied 0-0 at home against Gangwon FC in the final round of 38 at Suwon World Cup Stadium on Tuesday. It lacked one point to beat Gangwon FC (10th) and Suwon FC (11th). Consequently, Suwon remained at the bottom (12th). It is the first time in the team’s history that it suffered a severe demotion since its foundation in 1995.

Acting coach Yeom Ki-hoon could not leave his post for a while even after the closing whistle blew. He was in quite a lot of pain sitting on the bench covering his head. He was even seen crying.

Yeom Ki-hoon, a former national winger, is a legendary figure in Suwon that everyone recognizes. Since joining Suwon in 2010, he has played for only one Suwon team for a whopping 13 years, except for his mandatory military service. This has been his retirement season. He postponed his retirement, which he thought would be helpful to his team last year, and started this season as a playing coach. He has led Suwon as an acting coach since September, taking over former coach Kim Byung-soo who was abruptly dismissed. However, he failed to prevent Suwon from being demoted.

Usually, he sends his gratitude to his fans when it comes to the last game for active duty. However, acting coach Yeom Ki-hoon could not afford to do so due to the reality of his team’s relegation. He only made an apology in tears. “I am so sorry to the fans. Players did their best on the field, but I did not want and thought about it,” acting coach Yeom Ki-hoon said. “Suwon will go up again. I hope the players can cheer up as well. I have no regrets about my decision (by acting as acting coach). This situation came because I was not good enough. I wanted to do something for the team.”

Yeom Ki-hoon, who has decided to take off his current uniform, has yet to decide his future. For now, he has made up his mind to choose the path of a leader. However, he can say goodbye to the Suwon club. “I have a big desire to become a leader. I don’t know where I will start again, but I will continue to dream of becoming a leader. I need to talk about my future with the Suwon club once again. I will live the life of a leader, whether it be Suwon or elsewhere,” Yeom said.

“I tried to retire last year, but I took charge of play coaching this year. I did my best to make that choice the best option. So I have no regrets at all,” he said. “I will continue to support Suwon. I will also help Suwon in what I can do to help it do well.”

Suwon, a renowned professional soccer team, has won four K-League titles in 28 years since its foundation in 1995. It also topped the FA Cup and the Asian Champions League. However, its performance deteriorated little by little. Suwon barely survived through the playoffs last year, but failed to avoid relegation this year. Acting head coach Yeom Ki-hoon also had to bow down.

Tottenham Hotspur’s final signing of the winter is taking shape.

“Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou has asked the club to sign João Gomes, 22, of Wolverhampton to help them win the title this season,” Brazilian outlet Flyweb reported on Friday.

Tottenham have performed well so far this season. After 21 games in the Premier League, they have 12 wins, four draws, and five losses and are in fifth place with 40 points.

They are within striking distance of winning the league. The current leaders, Liverpool, have 45 points. Only five points separate them from Tottenham.

This winter’s transfer window is all about reinforcements. With a thin roster, Spurs needed to bring in new players to keep their title hopes alive down the stretch.

The reinforcements came quickly. Spurs brought in Timo Werner and Radu Dragucin in quick succession to bolster their defense.

Now, eyes are turning to the midfield. According to this report, Tottenham have set their sights on Gomes to fill the void left by Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr, who are away at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Gomes deserves to be at Tottenham. Despite his young age, he is a reliable defender and his neat tackling skills are his biggest strengths.

He is already labeled as a key player for Wolverhampton. He has made 20 appearances across all competitions this season and has been praised for filling the void left by the likes of Robben Neves and Matheus Nunes.

A move cannot be ruled out. Wolverhampton are reportedly considering selling some players to comply with Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.

There is no guarantee of a signing. “Wolverhampton will not allow Gomes to leave for a transfer fee below €35 million,” according to Flyweb.

Samsung Life tasted bitter defeat after the All-Star break. Add to that a dishonorable record.

Yongin Samsung Life lost 35-43 against Incheon Shinhan Bank in the fourth round of the Woori WON 2023-2024 Women’s Professional Basketball League at Yongin Gymnasium on Nov. 15. Samsung Life was unable to extend its winning streak as it lost its ninth game of the season (eight wins).

No player scored in double figures for Samsung Life on the night. Bae Hye-yoon (9 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist) and Lee Hae-ran (9 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists) were the top scorers. No player scored more than 40 points.

With the exception of 14 points in the first quarter, he scored in single digits in quarters two through four. This resulted in a dishonorable record. The previous lowest score for a Samsung Life team was 38 points against Woori Bank on February 27, 2020, but the team only scored 35 points in that game.

Samsung Life also holds the record for the fewest points scored by both teams combined. The previous record was 84 points between BNK Thumb and Woori Bank on Feb. 21, 2021, but this game was another disgrace with 78 points.

An inability to recover from a 16% first-half field goal percentage led to the result. Samsung Life will need to regain the touch it lost after the All-Star break.

Gangneung Speedskating Arena (Oval) was the site of a high-profile women’s 500-meter speedskating race at the PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics that pitted “ice legend” Lee Sang-hwa against opponent Nao Kodaira (JPN). The “friendship competition” between the two athletes remains one of the most memorable moments of the Games to date. However, Gangneung Oval has not been used as an ice rink since the Pyeongchang Olympics due to operational costs. After six years of being used as a movie set, the rink was put back on ice. This is thanks to the 2024 Gangwon Winter Youth Olympic Games (hereinafter referred to as 2024 Gangwon), which summoned the dormant ‘memories of Pyeongchang’. Starting on March 19, Gangneung City, Pyeongchang County, Jeongseon County, and Hwaseong County in Gangwon Province will host an adventure of youth from around the world united by sport. 1,803 athletes from 79 countries will showcase their hard-earned talents in 15 sports, including skating, ice hockey, curling (on ice), bobsleigh, skeleton, luge (sliding), and skiing (on snow), until the first of next month.

The event will feature 100 percent utilization of the facilities from the PyeongChang Olympics. As this is a place where young people’s dreams can come true, the organizing committee is also checking the last-minute preparations. Major venues such as the Ice Arena, Oval, Hockey Center (Gangneung), Alpensia Ski Jumping Center, and Biathlon Center (Pyeongchang), which we visited over two days on the 11th and 12th of this month, were mostly ready. In particular, the Biathlon Center held a national tournament for the Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism Cup before the 2024 Gangwon Games and completed a practical inspection. Oval, which hadn’t been used for a long time, was also tested for de-icing and was evaluated as having “better ice quality than Taereung International Skating Center.”

After witnessing the ‘Saemangeum Jamboree disaster’ last year, the Gangwon 2024 organizers are making sure that there are no problems with accommodation and food. “Accommodation is one of the most important parts of training and competing,” said Jang Jang-ran, Vice Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, who also tasted the food for the athletes. “We plan to reinforce the space, transportation, and food as much as possible so that they don’t feel uncomfortable.”

With the preparations for the Games already in place, the final “puzzle piece” is now in place. The organizers’ next challenge is to generate “interest” to support the youth in their endeavors. The organizers are looking forward to welcoming visitors with a dynamic opening ceremony and plenty of activities.

The opening ceremony will be directed by Yang Jeong-woong, who made waves with his in-my-face bird performance and drone show at the PyeongChang Olympics opening ceremony. The opening ceremony for Gangwon 2024 will have a youthful dynamism instead of glamor. “We want to convey the message that each youth living in a huge universe is a ‘microcosm,'” Yang said at a press conference at the Seamark Hotel in Gangneung on Nov. 11. “It’s a story about ‘we,’ a mountain girl from Gangwon Province who dreams of becoming an astronaut, traveling through space in an imaginary world and meeting herself as a future astronaut.” In addition to the opening ceremony, Gangwon 2024 will feature a variety of attractions and cultural events for youth, including a “digital torch” that emphasizes the value of sustainability and K-pop performances.

“We have done our best to make the Games safer and more comfortable than any other Olympic Games in history, and to create an event that is full of Korean charm,” said Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism Yoo In-chon. “I hope you can enjoy the friendships, challenges, and adventures of young people on site.”

“It’s disappointing, but I’m playing well so far.”

Byung-hoon Ahn, 33, has shrugged off the disappointment of missing out on his first career win on the U.S. Professional Golf Association (PGA) Tour and has high hopes for his performance this season.

Byung-hoon Ahn carded an eagle, six birdies and two bogeys to finish at 17-under-par 263 in the final round of the PGA Tour’s Sony Open ($8.3 million purse) at Waialae CC (par 70-7044 yards) in Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S., on Friday, falling in a three-way playoff with Grayson Murray and Keegan Bradley (USA).

Ahn, who turned pro in 2011 and played on the European Tour before moving to the PGA Tour full-time in the 2016-2017 season, came close to his first win in his 182nd career event but had to settle for a fifth career runner-up finish after two disappointing putts. With the $787,000 prize money, Ahn moved to second on the FedExCup standings behind last week’s season-opening The Sentry winner Chris Kirk (USA).

Starting the day in a three-way tie for fourth and five shots off the lead after 17 holes, Ahn had a 4.5-meter eagle putt opportunity at the par-5 18th, where he was one up and two down, but missed it left. In the extended playoff on the 18th, Ahn put his third shot 1.2 meters behind the hole to give himself the most advantage, but after a 12-meter birdie putt from his head went in, he missed the birdie putt under great pressure and hung his head once again.

“I didn’t get off to the best start today with two bogeys, but I overcame them well,” Ahn said in his official interview. I played well on the 18th and in the extensions, but I had a bad putt that could have happened anywhere on the 73rd,” he said, adding, “I’m very disappointed, but that can’t be helped.” “I think I’m playing well so far. Taking the pressure off every round and being grateful is the biggest thing that has made a difference. I’ve been training hard during the off-season, and even if there are shaky rounds, I’m overcoming them and getting good results, which is the biggest change.”

Ahn, who jumped eight spots to No. 52 in the world after finishing a career-best fourth in last week’s opening event, jumped 13 spots to No. 39 in today’s world rankings. He needs to be in the world’s top 50 by the end of March to qualify for the Masters, the first major of the season.

Grayson Murray dramatically moved into a share of the lead with an 18th-hole birdie and then roared in a 12-meter birdie putt in the extended playoff that had just a 5 percent chance of making the cut. Murray, who has overcome alcoholism and is now 2-for-2 since the 2017 Barbasol Championship, earned $1.49 million in prize money, a spot in the Masters Tournament and a spot on the All-Season Order of Merit.

First-time starters Lee Kyung-hoon and Kim Sung-hyun finished tied for 30th (9-under 271), while last year’s winner, Siu Kim, finished tied for 42nd (8-under 272).

Cho Kyu-sung missed two crucial chances and picked up an unnecessary yellow card. Central defender Jung Seung-hyun, who was shaky against Iraq in his final test match, was also the cause of a goal. Both players were also wasted in the win over Bahrain.

Jürgen Klinsmann’s South Korea men’s national team won their first match of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup Group E with a 3-1 victory over Bahrain thanks to a multi-goal performance from Lee Kang-in at the Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar, at 8:30 p.m. ET on Friday.

The South Koreans, who are looking to return to the top of the Asian Cup 64 years after winning the tournament in 1960, will open their campaign against Bahrain with matches against Jordan on Tuesday and Malaysia on Friday. Bahrain is ranked 86th in the FIFA rankings, a far cry from Korea’s 23rd-ranked team.

In the 38th minute of the first half, South Korea took the lead when Lee Jae-sung sent in a low cutback cross from the left side that was deflected by a defender, and Hwang In-beom finished with a precise left-footed shot from just inside the box.

But six minutes into the second half, South Korea equalized. Bahrain’s Mohammed Malhoun cut in from the left and received a high 2-on-1 pass in the box, which deflected off defender Jung Seung-hyun and fell in front of Abdullah Al Hashashi, who split the Korean goal with a right-footed shot from the penalty spot.

It was a shocking 1-1 tie, but South Korea had Lee Kang-in. In the 11th minute of the second half, Lee Kang-in, who took over from Kim Min-jae’s pass to the center from the left, hit a bold left-footed mid-range shot from a central spot about 25 meters away from the goal with an exquisite trajectory that found the back of the net. 2-1.

In the 23rd minute of the second half, Lee Kang-in caught a pass from Son Heung-min and Hwang In-beom from the left side and calmly folded inside the box and scored with a left-footed shot to make the score 3-1 in favor of South Korea.

Cho Kyu-sung as a frontline striker was disappointing. He worked hard up front but didn’t stand out. In particular, he missed two crucial chances. In the 29th minute, Lee Jae-sung’s low, quick cross from the left gave Cho Kyu-sung a perfect no-mark opportunity with no defenders in front of him, but he leaned forward a bit more than the ball and couldn’t get his foot on the ball properly, sending it flying.

In the seventh minute of the second half, Lee Kang-in’s early cross from the right to the left was exquisitely played in front of Cho Kyu-sung, but he couldn’t get his right foot on it and missed the chance.

In the 16th minute of the second half, Cho was cautioned for contesting the defense in the attacking third, adding to the pressure on South Korea, who had already seen a number of yellow cards in the first half. Eventually, Klinsmann replaced Cho Kyu-sung with Hong Hyun-seok in the 27th minute of the second half due to his poor performance and cautions.

Jung Seung-hyun was also disappointing in the goal. Seung-hyun Jung, who was criticized for playing only the first half of the match against Iraq on June 6, was unable to find a drop-off point in the opponent’s 2-on-1 pass and gave up a no-mark shot. Luckily, the shot hit the body, but the deflected ball fell at the opponent’s feet, resulting in a goal.

In addition, in the 32nd minute, which was the most dangerous moment of the first half, he was in front of the opponent’s No. 7 striker but failed to follow through on a through ball, and if the shot was accurate, Korea would have taken the lead.

Despite the victory over Bahrain, Cho Kyu-sung and Jung Seung-hyun’s performances were disappointing.

PSG finished the first half of the 2023-24 French Ligue 1 14 away match against Le Havre AC at Stade Osean in Le Havre, France, 1-0 on the 3rd (Korea time).

Despite unfavorable factors such as Fabian’s injury and Donnarumma’s exit, PSG ended the first half with a lead. Starting with Lee Kang-in, the offense led by Dembele and Mbappe was very sharp. Eventually, Mbappe scored and penetrated Le Havre.

PSG is playing in the “Hangul uniform” for the first time in the club’s history. Despite the difficult situation, the team is doing its best through the “Hangul Buff.”

Starting with goalkeeper Donnarumma, PSG started Hakimi, Danilu, Mukiele, Soler, Vitinha, Lee Kang-in, Fabian, Dembele, Mbappe and Barcola. 메이저 토토사이트

PSG was full of unfavorable factors in the beginning of the first half. Fabian was replaced by Ugarte in the 6th minute of the first half when he complained of shoulder pain in defense. One minute later, he faced a crisis of losing a point, but Soler managed to overcome it by blocking it.

However, in the 10th minute of the first half, the PSG defense collapsed due to Le Havre’s anomalous attack. Donnarumma, who ran late, collided with Kazimir and was sent off directly.

PSG, who started in just 10 minutes, changed two players. Even one player short, had to play the rest of the time.

One, PSG was strong. At the center were Lee Kang-in, Dembele, and Mbappe. In the 20th minute of the first half, the counterattack, which started with Lee Kang-in, changed the flow. Attacks from Vitinha, Dembele, and Mbappe continued like water and even connected shots. It was a shame that it was blocked by Desmas.

A similar scene took place three minutes later. Lee Kang-in was the starting point again in the 23rd minute of the first half. He passed the ball to Dembele accurately in a fast counterattack. Mbappe, who received Dembele’s pass, scored the goal with a great shot. The score was 1-0.

Later, in the 29th minute of the first half, Lee Kang-in’s powerful shot hit the Le Havre defensive wall. In the 32nd minute of the first half, Mbappe connected Lee Kang-in’s pass with a shot and a goal, but it was canceled due to an offside decision.

PSG, which was in danger of losing a point due to Hakimi’s error in the 42nd minute of the first half, was able to take a breather when Kazimir missed the perfect scoring opportunity. He shot in a completely different direction from the goal in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper.

PSG endured the rest of the time well and finished the first half with a 1-0 lead despite 10 players playing.

UEFA hosted the UEFA Euro 2024 draw at the Elbe Music Hall in Hamburg, Germany, at 2 a.m. on Saturday (Korea time). Germany, the host country, was assigned to the No. 1 spot in Group A without a lottery.

Wales, Poland and Finland, which made it to the UEFA Euro 2020, have also been selected in the “Playoff Pass A,” and the two teams will not be able to make it to the finals. Norway, where Erling Holan of Manchester City and Martin ᄋᅀᅳᅵdegaard of Arsenal play, was also eliminated from the group stage.

A total of 21 countries have confirmed their advance to the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying round. The remaining three countries will be selected through a playoff. Among the teams ranking third or lower in the group, the top 12 teams were selected through the Nations League performance of the previous season. Although Norway ranked third in Group A, fourth-ranked Georgia made the playoffs because of its Nations League performance.

The playoffs are divided into three passes, with one team per pass qualifying for the finals through the semifinals and finals. In Pass A, Poland vs. Estonia and Wales vs. Finland will clash in the semifinals, and the winners will ride the last train through the finals. In Pass B, Israel vs. Iceland, Bosnia and Herzkovina vs. Ukraine will compete for one ticket in Pass C, Georgia vs. Luxembourg and Greece vs. Kazakhstan.

As a result of the UEFA Euro 2024 draw, which will be contested by a total of 24 countries, Germany, the host country, will be in the same group with Scotland, Hungary, and Switzerland.

John Shin Wins Poker Main Event World Series After Marathon

He entered the World Series of Poker Main Event Poker Tournament for $10,000 on July 2 and started with 50,000 cash prizes. He left on July 15 with 393,700,000 chips from 7,873 other contenders who competed with the $8.8 million first prize, the Diamond-encrusted World Series of Poker Gold Bracelet, and the 2018 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion.

Cynn won his first World Series Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet and $8,800,000 in top prize money after a live broadcast of ESPN’s three-day finale, which ended Sunday morning at 4:51 a.m. in the Amazon Ballroom at the Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino.

Surprisingly, Cynn finished 11th with $650,000 in the tournament just two years ago. He previously had 12 cash prizes in World Series poker where he competes. His total live tournament win was $944,786, which led to this year’s WSOP main event. A former logistics analyst, Cynn was fired from his job and started playing poker. He has been a professional player for the past five years.

“Winning 11th place itself is insane,” said a stunned fainting moment after his victory. “So to win, it’s literally what you dream of but you never expect it to happen. Now I’m so overwhelmed. Every emotion is ten times.”

Second place is 32-year-old Tony Miles of Jacksonville, Florida, who missed his first WSOP gold bracelet but still left with $5,000,000. He only made cash twice before at the WSOP at $6,396, but was a chip leader a few times and was active throughout the last table. His previous best finish was $18,000 in cash, finishing third at a local event in Jacksonville. His live tournament win totaled $54,333, which marked his first cash at the WSOP main event.

In the final phase of an 11-day poker game, Cynn raised his money to 9 million. Miles earned 32 million, and Cynn made the phone call. The flop brought the king of hearts, the king of diamonds, and five hearts. Miles led by 32 million, and Cynn made the phone call. There were eight turn cards of diamonds. Miles decided to buy his remaining 114 million chips, and Cynn fell into a deep thought to decide what to do. He eventually made the phone call, putting Miles in danger of elimination. The card was turned over, and Cynn put the king of the club, Jack of clubs for a two pair, eight hearts, and eight kings on the table, while Cynn showed the king of the club, Jack of clubs for a two pair. That made the river card meaningless, and it was official when a dealer turned over the river card (four spades). Cynn stacked 393,700,000 cards in front of him.

On July 2, 2018, in a long-running event with 7,874 hopefuls who each paid $10,000 for entry and received 50,000 tournament chips, Cynn ultimately outpaced all of them. The total prize money for the tournament was $74,015,600.

The match ended with 8 minutes and 50 seconds left, which was 87 hours, 51 minutes, and 10 seconds of poker play. But in real time, the contest took 11 days to become champion, spread out across 14 calendars. When play began on July 2, players started with 50,000 chips and blinds reached 75 and 150. When play ended late Saturday night at the Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, there were 2,000,000 blinds and 400,000,000 Ant.

The three-handed race began at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday evening with a PT of level 40. At 6:20 p.m., Michael Dyer placed the remaining 22.2 million chips in a pot of 10 diamonds, the ace of hearts. The chip leader Miles called and flipped the ace of spades and the jack of hearts. The board distributed five cups of the queen of spades, three diamonds, the queen of hearts, and two pairs of jacks to Miles. To eliminate Dyer, who won second place on the chip table, the committee exhausted the queen of five cups, the queen of hearts, and the jack.
