Comment on the level of risk:
The UAE has historically prohibited gambling; although there are discussions about creating a regulator, in practice, promoting offshore casinos is extremely risky and can have serious administrative and criminal consequences. Do not work with the UAE. The risk of extradition to the country is high - the UAE has a well-developed network of treaties and actively requests extradition from the EU, UK, US and a number of Asian states.
