According to files launched 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 victory.
Kambi told the enforcement division that a trader had actually failed to by hand get rid of that game from its sports betting markets, stating it had stopped receiving messages from its own sports betting information service provider due to a network connectivity error. Kambi stated it has upgraded its standards and re-trained its traders to avoid a recurrence.
Kambi, which is based in Malta, did not right away react to a message looking for comment Monday. Rush Street declined comment, and DraftKings had no instant remark Monday. DraftKings stopped using Kambi in 2021.
In March 2022 Rush Street took seven bets amounting to simply under $2,900 on 3 Magic City Jai Alai games after the outcomes were already understood.
Kambi informed the department it experienced a connection issue that allowed the bets to be accepted after the video games were over. A description of what Kambi did to deal with the situation was blacked out in documents launched by the division.
A month earlier Rush Street took 13 wagers worth $8,150 with pre-match odds on a Professional Golf Association match after the occasion had actually currently started. In this case, Kambi told the division a recently worked with trader stopped working to enter the appropriate closing time time for bets on the occasion. The trader and a manager went through retraining.
DraftKings was fined for taking bets on unapproved occasions consisting of Russian basketball for 9 months in 2020 and 2021. It ultimately voided over $61,000 in bets and returned the cash to customers after being directed to do so by the state.
In this case, Kambi informed the division it misidentified this particular Russian basketball league as one that was authorized for wagering in New Jersey. DraftKings informed the state it did not catch the error, either.
In 2020, DraftKings accepted 484 wagers on unapproved table tennis matches. Kambi incorrectly enabled the events for sports betting without conditions required by the state, the division said.
In Feb. 2022, the division stated DraftKings took pre-season NFL bets including specific players however did not give the state particular information on what info was to be included in the bets, drawing 182 wagers worth nearly $7,000 that were later on voided and refunded to clients.
