CALGARY, AB and ISLE OF MAN,
Dec. 17, 2021 /CNW/ - Real Luck
Group Ltd. (TSXV: LUCK) (OTCQB: LUKEF) (the "Company") and its
subsidiary companies doing business as "Luckbox" (the "Group"), an
award-winning provider of licensed, real-money esports and sports
betting, is pleased to announce the appointment of William Moore as its new Chief Financial
Officer.
An ACCA-qualified accountant with buy and sell-side M&A
experience, Mr Moore joins Luckbox, leaving his position as CFO at
Markor Technology, a B2B gaming company. Mr Moore has held senior
finance positions at eGaming B2C operators since 2002, including
with Gamesys (now Bally Technologies [NYSE: BALY]), Gala Coral
Group and bwin / Party (now Entain [LSE: ENT]). During seven years
on the operating Board of Gamesys, he oversaw the successful
launches of Virgin Bet, Rainbow Riches Casino and Monopoly
Casino.
Luckbox CEO Thomas Rosander said:
"We are delighted to welcome William to the Luckbox team at an
exciting time for the Company as we target strong growth in 2022.
We intend to launch our casino during this quarter, paving the way
to ramp up our player acquisition efforts early in the new year.
William, with his vast and relevant experience at established
igaming companies, is the perfect fit to strengthen the team as we
embark on this next phase of the Company's story."
Mr Moore said: "I strongly believe that Real Luck Group is at an
inflection point where it can significantly scale player
acquisition and revenues. I am confident my experience at large
established operators will be a valuable asset to Luckbox as we aim
to become the number one esports betting destination, with
our bespoke product built specifically to meet the demands of a new
generation of bettors. I'd like to thank the Board for offering me
the opportunity to lend my skills to what I believe will be the
number one esports betting destination."
Mr Ran Kaspi is stepping down from the CFO position. Mr Kaspi
will remain with the Company in a consulting capacity, as required,
to ensure a seamless transition.
"I thoroughly enjoyed my time as Real Luck Group's CFO," said
Mr. Kaspi. "I am proud of the entire team as they not only revamped
the Luckbox platform but also supported my efforts to manage the
balance sheet and costs during this transition. William is the
perfect candidate to guide the Company through its next phase of
enhancing marketing and striving to increase the player base. I'd
like to thank everyone at Real Luck Group for making my time with
the Company fun and enjoyable."
Mr Rosander said: "I would like to take this opportunity to
thank Ran for his diligent work as we have conserved our cash and
streamlined resources during the recalibration of the Luckbox
platform, now completed. His efforts have positioned Real Luck
Group to enter the next phase of growth with a solid balance sheet
and low operational costs. I'd also like to thank Ran for staying
on during the CFO transition to ensure that our financial
operations are minimally disrupted. We are grateful for his
outstanding contribution as we look ahead to what we are
anticipating to be an exciting 2022."
