iGamingPlayer.com Podcast: Dan Real, Founder & CEO, Exclaim Recovery

Dan Real is a former casino executive who witnessed people with problem gambling throughout his career. Although only a small percentage of gamblers fall into this category, Real understands that there isn't one program that addresses the issues of every problem gambler. Exclaim Recovery uses artificial intelligence to better understand the problems of each individual and Real uses his experience and compassion to make the transition manageable.

This week, iGamingPlayer.com shares a podcast with Dan Real, a former casino executive and founder of Exclaim Recovery.

With almost 30 years of experience at Caesars Entertainment, including a stint running the company’s southern properties, Dan Real left the organization to found Exclaim Recovery, dedicated to identifying and treating problem gambling. Exclaim Recovery is developing new tools to treat problem gambling using AI, technology, and community. The program includes approachable mentors, AI, educational resources, and a founder who understands the psychology of casinos and the commitment to helping each troubled individual find their own path. He spoke with iGamingPlayer Editor Roger Gros at the Global Gaming Expo in October. To learn more about the program, visit www.exclaimrecovery.com.

The exploit forced IGT to rush out global firmware patches, cementing it as one of the wilder legal loopholes in modern gaming history.
