According to documents released by the state, Rush Street accepted 16 bets worth $1,523 in Nov. 2021 on a college basketball video game between the University of North Carolina-Asheville and Tennessee Tech University after the video game had currently concluded with a UNC triumph.

Kambi informed the enforcement department that a trader had stopped working to manually get rid of that video game from its wagering markets, stating it had stopped getting messages from its own sports betting data company due to a network connection mistake. Kambi said it has actually upgraded its standards and retrained its traders to avoid a reoccurrence.

Kambi, which is based in Malta, did not instantly react to a message seeking remark Monday. Rush Street declined comment, and DraftKings had no instant comment Monday. DraftKings stopped using Kambi in 2021.

In March 2022 Rush Street took 7 bets amounting to just under $2,900 on three Magic City Jai Alai games after the results were currently known.

Kambi informed the division it experienced a connectivity issue that enabled the bets to be accepted after the games were over. A description of what Kambi did to address the circumstance was blacked out in documents launched by the department.

A month earlier Rush Street took 13 wagers worth $8,150 with pre-match odds on a Professional Golf Association match after the event had already begun. In this case, Kambi told the division a recently worked with trader failed to enter the appropriate closing time time for bets on the occasion. The trader and a manager underwent retraining.

DraftKings was fined for taking bets on unapproved events including Russian basketball for nine months in 2020 and 2021. It eventually voided over $61,000 in bets and returned the cash to clients after being directed to do so by the state.

In this case, Kambi told the department it misidentified this particular Russian basketball league as one that was approved for wagering in New Jersey. DraftKings told the state it did not catch the mistake, either.

In 2020, DraftKings accepted 484 wagers on unapproved table tennis matches. Kambi incorrectly allowed the events for wagering without conditions required by the state, the stated.

In Feb. 2022, the division stated DraftKings took pre-season NFL bets involving particular players but did not provide the state specific info on what details was to be included in the bets, drawing 182 wagers worth nearly $7,000 that were later voided and reimbursed to consumers.
