WELCOME

WelcomeHello, dear reader, and welcome to Praats Magazine! My name is Lukas Peeters and I am Praats’ Editor-In-Chief. I’m extremely happy and proud to share with you the latest version of our magazine, which for the first time ever is available to English-speaking audiences. Praats has existed since 1998, quickly becoming Belgium’s first (and best) casino magazine, covering various news about casinos in the country and giving Belgian gamblers tips and strategies on how to beat the system and come out on top. Two months before the magazine’s 10th anniversary, Praats’ online version was launched, which quickly proved so popular that we soon made the difficult (but, in retrospect, right) decision to cease production of the physical publication and focus all of our efforts on the online format. Praats thrived in the Belgian webspace for many years. Earlier this year (2015), we decided to make yet another hard choice, and that was to remove the language barrier once and for all and allow gamblers outside of Belgium to enjoy the content that we produce. This decision was rather controversial among our staff, but ultimately we decided that this was the logical next step, considering that more than half of Belgium’s population speaks fluent English (which includes most of our audience). As such, we decided to completely rework our website with an English-speaking audience in mind, bringing in new content and a new design. Some of our best articles from the past will return (translated into English), but for the most part we’re planning to focus on brand new content. What you can expect to see from us are casino news articles, tips and reviews. Now that we’re no longer confined to the Belgian market, you can expect our variety of articles to drastically increase as well. 17 years after our founding, we’re turning a brand new leaf, and I couldn’t be any more excited about it! I hope you join us for a brand new adventure!
