yeah, that’s some bullshit. classic example of “those who the law binds but does not protect” vs “those who the law protects but does not bind”.

    This is a testament to the fact that gambling is a completely predatory industry, even beyond the inherently rigged house bias in every offering.

    I would say that I hope this kills online sports betting for MGM, but we all know that this will not deter people for whom this service is enabling an actual addiction.

      Yeah. And if I were his attorney, that would probably be a huge part of my suit. like, make them prove that they would have automatically caught and refunded his bet if he had lost.
