In the latest episode of iGaming Daily, brought to you by Optimove, hosts Ted Orme-Claye, Editor of SBC News and Justin Byers of SBC Americas tackle the rising tide of online abuse directed at athletes, an alarming trend increasingly tied to the global expansion of sports betting markets. The conversation spotlights the recent targeting of British tennis star Katie Boulter following her French Open loss—an incident that sparked strong reactions from governing bodies like the ITF and WTA. The hosts also examine how this troubling behaviour is gaining ground in the US since the 2018 PASPA repeal, with Justin offering an insider look at how college sports and NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) deals have made student-athletes more vulnerable than ever to harassment linked to betting outcomes.This in-depth discussion covers how leagues, operators, and organisations are fighting back—from the NCAA's “Don't Be a Loser” video campaign to action plans by Epic Global Solutions and FanDuel's response to Olympian Gabby Thomas speaking out. Ted and Justin explore the complex web of betting sponsorships, brand partnerships, and league collaborations that may unintentionally fuel fan suspicion and conspiracy theories about match integrity.

Once upon a time, gambling was something done in back rooms and smoke-filled basements. Now? One in five Americans has a sports betting app — right next to their Bible app. In 2024 alone, Americans legally wagered nearly $150 billion on sports. Nearly all of it — 95% — was done online. No dice, no bookie. Just tap, swipe, lose.For over a century, both American law and Christian conscience agreed: gambling was a vice. Not merely a private sin, but a public threat. It corrupted sports — from the 1919 Black Sox scandal to Pete Rose. It bankrupted homes. It bred addiction. So in 1992, Congress passed the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, barring states from legalizing sports betting. The goal was to shield young people, uphold the integrity of sports, and slow the spread of a morally corrosive practice. That restraint lasted 26 years — until the Supreme Court struck down PASPA in 2018. Since then, we've witnessed a cultural transformation: not a thoughtful reappraisal of risk and reward, but a full surrender to the gods of revenue, entertainment, and ease.And that surrender has been lucrative. Lobbyists promised lawmakers untold tax revenue. Tech companies engineered betting apps that are frictionless, addictive, and nearly impossible to close. Now, children can stream an NBA game and place a live bet on who misses the next free throw. The app encourages it. So does the league.But is it just harmless fun? A little added thrill to the game? Or is it something deeper — a system designed not to entertain, but to exploit? When gambling apps track your every wager, target your weaknesses, and make it easier to bet than to withdraw, is that still freedom — or is it a new form of bondage?And what happens when Christians get pulled into that system? For centuries, the church understood games of chance as morally precarious, if not downright dangerous. Not because randomness is sinful — after all, “the lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord” — but because gambling treats chance as profit, and profit as providence. It tempts us to see fortune as fate, and risk as recreation.So what are we really looking at here — a neutral technology that needs guarding? Or a predatory industry that preys on disordered loves, promising fast money and delivering slow ruin?This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors. You can join our Patreon at patreon.com/rightresponseministries or donate at rightresponseministries.com/donate.Today we trace the long Christian view of gambling — from biblical cleromancy to digital entrapment — and ask whether the modern church has fallen silent just as Mammon found a new app store.

These aren't the best of times for affiliates in the business of gambling, as reflected by the recent news involving XL Media, Catena Media and Better Collective. Straight to the Point publisher/editor Steve Ruddock returned to the Gaming News Canada Show. Ruddock walked us through his experiences in the affiliates industry over the past 15 years, and discussed with your humble host the decision by Catena Media and Better Collective to let go journalists covering the industry and what's next in the affiliate space. That also led to a lengthy discussion around coverage of the sports betting and gaming industry since the overturning of PASPA by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2018. The wild and crazy presidential election in the U.S. has attracted the interest of 16 sportsbooks – including OLG - in Ontario's regulated marketplace. We asked Ruddock about the participation by Robinhood, Kalshi and Polymarket in predicting the Harris-Trump battle, and the potential impact the next U.S. federal government will have on the country's legal gambling landscape. Last but not least, the debate continues about the competition/collaboration of retail and online gambling, so we asked our guest for his two cents on the topic. Hosted on Acast.

The US federal excise tax has existed long before the repeal of PASPA, but it is a subject that is rarely discussed—until now.Last week, federal lawmakers introduced the Gambling Addiction Recovery, Investment, and Treatment Act, or GRIT Act, which proposes using the money collected through the federal excise tax to support Responsible Gaming (RG) causes.

Ben Truman joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his company Media Troopers and where they fit in the sports betting/iGaming space. Ben is a veteran of the industry originally starting over in the UK and Europe before pivoting to the US after the repeal of PASPA in 2018. Media Troopers works as an affiliate to the sports books helping them sign up clients and bring more bettors their way. Through his time in the industry over multiple continents, Ben has already seen the maturing of markets and doesn't believe we're in for a consolidation of books, just ones that are smarter with how they get to their goals! https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjamin-truman-97189a12/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/mediatroopers/

David Rebuck has been retiring from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement for several years but he can't get out. The state's chief regulator, he was appointed in 2011, coinciding with a change in regulatory structure in New Jersey that gave the DGE complete investigative power in that process. Since then he's presided over the legalization of online gaming, the sports betting lawsuits that led to the PASPA decision by the Supreme Court in 2018, and becoming the first state to introduce sports betting outside of Nevada. He's now served two governors and anticipates his retirement sometime in 2023. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at the DGE offices in Atlantic City in August.

Penn National Gaming had been the leading regional gaming company for at least the past decade, but in the last few years, it has embraced an omnichannel approach to the business. Jay Snowden, the president and CEO, has taken an aggressive stance in positioning the company for growth in the digital field without taking his eyes off the land-based casinos. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at G2E in Las Vegas in October. (For complete podcast listen to the audio above or view the video at the bottom of this article). GGB: A lot of things have changed since we've seen each other. The first is the name of the company. Why did you do that? Jay Snowden: We changed it for several reasons. We've evolved so much as a company over the course of the last three or four years. We were predominantly a regional gaming company, and we spun off all of our real estate in 2013 and 2014. So what we've been really focused on is evolution into more of an entertainment company. We are now owner of two of the best sports media brands in North America, with Barstool Sports and theScore. We also now are operating in 14 states as an online sports betting operator, and a handful from an online casino perspective. So we felt like National Gaming Inc., didn't really describe who we are anymore, and we felt “entertainment” was broadly more appropriate for us. And so the name change made a lot of sense, and it really speaks to not just the company we've become, but I think importantly where we're going as a company. Tell us why buying Barstool and theScore made sense for the company. That's something that we knew we needed to do as a company, because regional gaming in and of itself isn't high growth. And we consider ourselves a growth company. We felt like once PASPA was overturned in May 2018, that opened the door for us to really think differently about the company going digital, and to really focus on an omnichannel strategy because we have structural advantages. We own the brands that you mentioned. Those aren't joint ventures. We're not just investors. And we also own our brick-and-mortar assets and those licenses. So we can get customers, whether it's through online sports betting or a casino visit or online gaming, or really loyal followers of our sports media assets and brands and the content behind those brands, bring them into the ecosystem and then introduce them to all of the other offerings that we have and do cross sale. That's why I feel strongly that any business sector you look at, if you don't have a very compelling digital and/or omnichannel strategy, you're facing extinction in the relatively near future. So we needed to pivot, we've pivoted, we've embraced it, and here we go! You recently announced expansions of some of your properties on the land-based side. What was that all about? It's another part of our strategy for growth. And you have to remember that even though a lot of the focus for the industry over the last couple of years has been on digital and online sports betting, at the core of our omnichannel strategy are our brick-and-mortar casinos. They generate most of the revenue and a tremendous amount of cash flow for the company. We've got best-in-class assets in most of the markets where we operate, but there are a few that aren't best in class, and we've been wanting to address that. Two of the ones that are best in class just needed more hotel capacity. In the case of M Resort here in Las Vegas, we have 390 rooms today. We've been busting out of our seams for the last several years. So we announced that we're going to build another hotel about the same size—375 rooms. We're also adding a hotel in Columbus—200 rooms and about a $100 million investment. We've been needing a hotel there since day one. We'll break ground at the end of 2023. That one's probably a 12 month-to-15-month build. In Illinois, two of our assets aren't best in class and really have become less competitive over time. They're just dated riverboat barges, one in Aurora and the other in Joliet. In Joliet, we're going to actually move our license about five or six miles away to a new development, a mixed-use development, since we no longer have to be on the water. It's right off of two major interstates. And then the last one, which is the largest investment, is a $360 million relocation of our Aurora riverboats. And similarly, we're moving that one seven miles away right off of Interstate 88. The beauty of that project is that one, it's right off the interstate, but two, it's right next to a Simon Premium Outlet Mall that already attracts 7 million or 8 million people a year. Are you making these changes in Illinois because of the casinos that have been approved in the northern part of the state? We consider the moves to be both offensive and defensive. You can sit back and do nothing. You can sit on your hands and you can continue to lose market share and revenue. And that's not a compelling business strategy from my perspective. This is not just, “Hey, the riverboat barges are old, we need to build something new, but build 'em at the same location.” This is a brand-new build at more favorable locations. And so, even though there's new supply coming into Illinois, we believe this will make us a lot more competitive in Joliet and in Aurora.

David Rebuck has completed over a decade on the job leading New Jersey's chief regulatory body, the Division of Gaming Enforcement. Rebuck is the longest serving director in DGE history.
