The largest casual betting sites in the UK are the bingo sites. Aside from that there are casual gaming sites like POGO and King.com. Pikum's quite different from those. We see it as having the appeal of fantasy gaming - the Guardian's Premiership fantasy game had well over 1 million players this last year - combined with the excitement of poker or lottery type games (small entry, can win a lot). We're already seeing that there's also appeal to players who also want to just play using the fun currency - pikles. Thanks Ryan. The largest casual betting sites in the UK are the bingo sites.

I checked out the site and it look like it has a tremendous amount of potential. How competitive is the landscape for casual gaming in the UK currently? Interesting commentary about Pikum.
