Honestly, Duel has had some pretty questionable marketing.

The SpongeBob stuff was already weird enough, but then there was the whole controversy involving Nazi imagery. At some point you have to wonder who is actually approving this stuff before it goes public 💀

I get that the whole point is probably to be edgy and get people talking, and it clearly works. But some of their stunts go way past normal gambling advertising.

Duel might genuinely have the craziest marketing team in the industry 😂

What do you guys think? Is Duel the most controversial, or is there another gambling site that has done worse?




I was searching for a while for a video that would be CC-friendly, because let’s just say they go way overboard with naughty adult content and antisemitic stuff. So you’ll have to find them yourself if you want to see just how controversial they get going 😀

The only thing i know about them is that they cooperate now with pokerstars to get a bigger playerbase in the US (and Canada or parts of Canada?)

What a weird video of that aunt giggling "Dad" to Mike Tyson. She can be happy to still have 2 ears i guess 😅

Welp it's gonna be hard to find a more gross site than Fanduel but I'm sure they exist,

I hated the idea they partnered with Pokerstars but it's just another in a long list of horrible ideas for Pokerstars lately,

... Fanduel is also being sued for predatory practices regarding problem gamblers... just what a reputable poker site wants to partner with right?🙄👎

I don't know much about Duel, but if they have partnered with Poker Stars and are known for predatory behaviour, that can only be a bad thing for Poker Stars.

👍

I see that now, I don't keep up with many of the sites since our black Friday, but I miss playing for real money on Stars.

🙁
 
I've never heard of Duel till now . And it sure sounds like that's a good thing .I hope they disappear soon .

Same - the few videos I saw were just gross.

See, that’s where we see things differently 🙂 For me, if the person involved is okay with laughing about it, I have no problem with it. Yes, they do go too far sometimes, but some parts definitely made me giggle.... For sure, the older generation is going to hate this though 😄
 
I think there’s a difference between being edgy and simply crossing the line. Controversial marketing can get attention, but using offensive or hateful imagery can easily damage a brand far more than it helps. There’s nothing wrong with being provocative, but there should still be some limits.
