Baccarat and Hold’em Guess’em titles introduce new engagement opportunities and diversified revenue streams
EvenBet Gaming, a leading developer of online gaming software and solutions, has expanded its poker offering with the launch of two new in-house developed side games designed to increase player engagement and generate additional revenue streams for operators.
The new titles, Baccarat and Hold’em Guess’em, introduce fresh gameplay experiences that can be enjoyed directly at the poker table between hands, during breaks, or while waiting for a new round to begin. Both games are available across desktop and mobile devices, allowing players to seamlessly switch between poker and side entertainment without interrupting their session.
Baccarat brings one of the world’s most recognisable casino games to the poker platform. The classic Player versus Banker card game allows players to bet on predefined outcomes with fixed payouts, with all card-drawing decisions managed by a random number generator. The game can be opened in a separate window and accessed at any time, making it an ideal low-attention companion during poker play. For operators, it introduces a new revenue model with a fully customisable house edge, enabling tailored experiences aligned with each company’s strategy.
Alongside this classic, EvenBet Gaming has also launched Hold’em Guess’em, a unique single-player title developed in partnership with BetChill. The game introduces an original mechanic that allows players to predict the winning hand in a Texas Hold’em deal. Its fully automated format calculates odds in real time based on win probability and the house edge set at table creation. Players simply place bets on the outcome, while payouts, limits, and potential winnings are recalculated automatically and displayed instantly. By combining familiar poker concepts with a simple prediction mechanic, Hold’em Guess’em is designed to appeal to both traditional poker players and casino audiences.
With the launch of Baccarat and Hold’em Guess’em, EvenBet Gaming now offers three proprietary side games within its ecosystem, joining Cowboy Hold’em, which debuted in 2025. These additions further strengthen the company’s growing product portfolio, which also includes recent innovations such as Spins Poker and One Click Poker, all aimed at enhancing engagement and diversifying monetisation opportunities for operators.
Dmitry Starostenkov, CEO at EvenBet Gaming, said:
“Side games are an effective way for operators to generate additional poker revenue while keeping players engaged throughout their sessions.
Baccarat is one of the most popular casino games in the world, with strong appeal especially among players in Asia, while Hold’em Guess’em introduces an entirely new mechanic to the market. Together, they broaden the entertainment options available on our platform and help operators reach new audiences beyond traditional poker players.”
