Updated We read the operator paperwork

June 3, 2019: New Hampshire Wins!, read against the bill text and the court record: nothing here is stated that we could not source, and the date of the check is at the top of the page.

21+. Play only where your state regulator allows it. We take a commission from some operators; it never moves a room up the list. Gambling problem? Call the National Problem Gambling Helpline, 1-800-MY-RESET (1-800-697-3738).

Wire Act opinion DOJ loses

“I hereby declare that § 1084(a) of the Wire Act… applies only to transmissions related to bets or wagers on a sporting event or contest. The 2018 OLC Opinion is set aside.”

Those words are part of a scathing 60-page District Court ruling issued by Judge Barbadoro in favor of the plaintiffs. The judge declares that the Wire Act does not apply broadly to online gambling, and the DOJ’s 2018 opinion does not apply to the New Hampshire Lottery Commission or its vendor, NeoPollard.

What the ruling means for other parties in other jurisdictions remains to be seen.
