U.S. Sports Betting & Wire Act – addressing key issues and questions for a successful regulation and operation of sports betting roll-out across states.
As emerged from many of the discussions at the recent GiGse in Miami, Wire Act poses a lot of doubts and challenges that will affect the roll-out of sports betting in the USA. Can one state outsource sports betting regulation and/or operation to another? Can operations across various states be controlled from one state only (e.g. Nevada)?
Our webinar experts posed those questions and answered them.
Presenters included:
- Daniel Wallach, Shareholder, Becker & Poliakoff
- Mark Hichar, Partner, Hinckley Allen
- Anthony Cabot, Distinguished Fellow, University of Nevada-Las Vegas, William S. Boyd School of Law
