The Department of Culture, Media and Sport has just announced the name of the new Chair of the Gambling Commission. Philip Graf took the post on 1 April 2011. Two Roles in One Mr Graf appears to have got a 100% welcome bonus with the job! The role also designates him as chairman of a new body which will be created by merging the Gambling Commission and National Lottery Commission. Strong Leadership Tourism Minister John Penrose said, "Philip Graf has a wealth of knowledge as a board member and his vast experience will serve him well as he takes up his post at the Gambling Commission. This will be even more important as the merger takes place to provide strong leadership and support to all those involved and I have no doubt he will rise to the challenge." A Wealth of Experience Graf comes with some useful experience. He is the outgoing Deputy Chairman of Ofcom and has many years experience in the media, notably his four year stint as Chief Executive of Trinity Mirror Group. In this post he was instrumental in transforming Trinity Mirror into the UK's largest newspaper group. Another string to his bow is his 2003 review of the BBC's online activities. Other relevant roles include his time as Chairman of the Press Standards Board of Finance (which funds the Press Complaints Commission). Arise Sir Graf! Graf is a Cambridge law graduate. In 2003 he received a CBE for services to regional newspapers in the Queen's birthday honours list. He appears to be an experienced pair of hands to steer the UK Gambling Commission through the five year tenure of this post.

The X Factor has been hit by a betting scandal following an investigation into suspicious betting patterns. Betfair drew the UK Gambling Commission's attention to suspicious betting patterns of three Virgin Media employees during last year's X Factor series. The resulting probe resulted in voiding orders being placed on bets totaling more than £16,000. An Inside Job The investigation centered around three individuals employed by phone line operator Virgin Media. The trio was deemed to have abused insider knowledge of voting patterns to place bets on weekly X Factor eliminations. "Following a multi-agency investigation led by the Gambling Commission, we are satisfied that the bets placed were substantially unfair as the individuals involved had inside information," said Nick Tofiluk, Director of Regulation for the Gambling Commission. Virgin has since sacked all three dodgy dealers. Steps Taken to Prevent Recurrence The Gambling Commission was keen to assure the public of the credibility of X Factor voting stating, "There is no evidence that the integrity of the public voting or the TV shows involved were compromised." A Virgin Media spokesman added, "We have since introduced additional monitoring to our systems to ensure this cannot happen again." Reality TV Betting Reality TV betting is a popular trend, particularly among women. William Hill currently has a range of bets on the popular American Idol 2011 show. Bets for Outright Winner are currently listed at: 5/4 Scotty McCreery 3/1 Lauren Alaina 10/3 James Durbin Betting is an ideal supplement to reality TV and many viewers vote with their hearts by backing their favorite contestant as opposed to studying the odds. American Idol viewers can bet on outright winner, top male, top female and gender of winner. Whilst the Virgin scandal leaves a sour taste, we doubt it will spoil the excitement of reality TV betting which is going from strength to strength.
The British government has finally received a report that it commissioned last year into whether millions of unclaimed pounds believed to be lying in betting accounts could be put towards improving public sports clubs. Unclaimed Winnings The commission was tasked with investigating how cash in dormant betting accounts and other unclaimed winnings could be put to use that would benefit the public. The review looked at online gambling accounts in particular, as it is known that minimum withdrawals and other strict requirements mean account holders at online bingo, poker and betting sites often just write off the small amounts they have left. Recommendations Sports Minister John Penrose, a Tory has said he will now review the findings, after receiving them from his Liberal Democrat counterpart Don Foster, who compiled the report as part of the coalition agreement between the two governing parties. It remains to be seen what will be decided and what exactly is in the report, but it is believed in the gambling industry that the findings may force online gaming companies to change their withdrawal terms and conditions in favor of customers.
