Brian Balsbaugh, James Sullivan, and Steve Preiss Bring Decades of Gaming Experience to Guide Platform into Regulated Markets

LAS VEGAS –April 24, 2018–Decent.bet today added further depth to its management roster with the hiring of three seasoned gaming industry experts—Brian Balsbaugh, James Sullivan, and Steve Preiss.

Collectively the new hirings bring over 40 years of gaming industry experience to Decent.bet, a critical step in helping the company navigate relevant regulatory markets and frameworks. Set to launch in May 2018, Decent.bet is a transparent, smart contract based gaming platform that distributes 100% of its profits to house credit holders. Unlike other decentralized gambling platforms which primarily use Ether and Bitcoin for transactions, Decent.bet makes use of specialized ERC20 tokens –DBETs –to facilitate wagers as well as buy credits in the house.

Brian Balsbaugh joins the Decent.bet team as VP of Global Strategy. After starting his career as a golf agent, Brian foundedPoker Royalty in 2003. Since then, Poker Royalty has become the world’s premier gaming agency, representing brands, technologies, and personalities across the globe.

“Over the past 15 years, I’ve been at the forefront of many emerging trends in poker and gaming,” said Balsbaugh. “The Decent.bet platform is revolutionary in its approach to online gaming. The concept of being the house coupled with the transparency of smart contracts is the next wave of online gaming.”

Joining Balsbaugh on the Decent.bet team are James Sullivan, In House Counsel, and Steve Preiss, VP of Marketing.

James has served as President of Poker Royalty since 2005. In that time, he has negotiated and managed tens of millions of dollars in gaming and technology contracts.

“Guiding Decent.bet into regulated markets is an exciting challenge,” said Sullivan. “This is a new frontier, and we will make sure to establish the proper framework for successful market entry and sustained growth.”

Steve has a wide breadth of gaming industry experience, helping launch multiple platforms and brands into regulated markets, overseeing marketing and business development of free-to-play apps, and managing the overall positioning of new gaming products.
