Racing Post
London, England, United Kingdom
Racing Post is the leading daily publishing brand for horse racing, greyhound racing, and sports betting in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Founded on 15 April 1986 by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai and a prominent thoroughbred owner, it was created to provide independent, high-quality coverage of British horse racing.

Today, Racing Post spans a daily print edition, a comprehensive website (racingpost.com) offering both free and premium content, and highly rated mobile apps for iOS and Android.

Poker Wrangler
10010 63rd St, Kenosha, Wisconsin 53142
Poker Wrangler is a small poker reference brand that produces illustrated cheat sheets and pocket guides intended to help players learn and recall Texas Hold'em hand rankings, rules, and starting-hand strategies. The company describes itself as "the premier reference brand for poker players who want to learn faster and play smarter." Its primary product is a set of five double-sided poker cheat cards, sold on Amazon and Etsy, which pair with any standard poker set or chips. Founded by unnamed poker enthusiasts working with professional infographic designers, the brand aims to reduce confusion at home games and casual tournaments. While the product is marketed to individual players, the operation appears to be a very small business – likely a solo entrepreneur or a handful of collaborators – with no disclosed funding, partnerships, or significant news coverage. Poker Wrangler does not operate an online poker platform or offer B2B gambling services; instead, it occupies a niche in the consumer poker accessories segment.
Ocean Communications
Physical Address:, Mailing Address:, 7 Abraham de Veerstraat, Willemstad, Curaçao, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, PO Box 840, Willemstad, Curaçao, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba
Ocean Communications Ltd is a Curacao-based business-to-business service provider that has been operating in the jurisdiction for over 20 years, according to its minimal corporate website. The company specializes in software licensing and consulting services aimed at companies seeking to establish or expand their online gambling operations under Curacao's regulatory framework. As a jurisdiction well-known for its iGaming licensing regime, Curacao hosts numerous such advisory firms, and Ocean Communications positions itself as an intermediary or consultant for entities navigating the licensing process. The company's public footprint is extremely limited: its single-page website offers no details on ownership, team size, client portfolios, or specific platforms. No social media presence, press releases, or industry trade coverage could be found. This low visibility is typical of many Curacao back-office firms that operate discreetly. The domain oceancommunicationsltd.com was registered in 2005, but no official founding year or registered address is available. The company does not appear in Curacao Chamber of Commerce public records, and no third-party confirmation of its longevity or credibility exists. For potential clients in the iGaming sector, performing due diligence on Ocean Communications would be challenging due to the lack of transparent information.
