🚨Something new over at InGame dot com: we've introduced a Live Blog for prediction market news. ⚡️Updates there will be similar to our traditional coverage, but the intention is to include a variety of brief, short-form updates. In other words, the priority here is speed, with as much context available.

An appeals court has denied Kalshi a stay that would have prevented Nevada from banning its sports contracts, meaning the prediction market may have to bring the case to the Supreme Court’s emergency docket, or face a court order to shut down its sports contracts in the state.

Read Jeff's full take on the new ad campaign: ingame.com/bet365-adverti…

As a sportsbook slogan, Bet365's “Winning is Everything” is refreshingly honest, @jeffedelstein says. But if you wants to celebrate sharp bettors in its ads, maybe don’t swat them away the second they act like sharp bettors.

Major League Baseball (MLB) dove headfirst into the prediction market business on Thursday, announcing a multi-year deal with Polymarket after signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) regarding information-sharing with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

@InGameHQ What player its that?

A new Sacred Heart poll finds 57% of Americans think sports betting "significantly" or "somewhat" impacts college basketball's integrity, and 63% are at least somewhat concerned that athletes can be bought.

Today the @CFTC and @MLB made history by signing the first-ever MOU between a sports league and federal agency. We’ve committed to work together to protect the integrity and resilience of prediction markets relating to professional baseball. Through this partnership, the @CFTC is well-positioned to add additional tools to protect our markets from fraud, manipulation, and other abuses. Thanks to @MLB and Commissioner Manfred for working with us to protect the integrity of these growing markets. Read the full MOU⬇️ cftc.gov/PressRoom/Pres…

🚨 New episode alert! @JeffEdelstein is joined by @GovChristie, former Governor of New Jersey, for a wide-ranging conversation on the legalization of sports betting in the United States, the landmark Supreme Court decision that changed the industry, and the ongoing evolution of regulation, competition, and responsible gambling.

Maynard also became the first gaming chair in the U.S. to directly take on sportsbook "limiting" practices. New MGC rules take effect in June requiring 48-hour notice and specific explanation before a bettor gets restricted/limited.

.@MassGamingComm Jordan Maynard has a message for CFTC Chairman @MichaelSelig: "Welcome to regulating." In an interview with @brettsmiley, Maynard says prediction markets may be more harmful than offshore books and considers it a "pseudo-regulated industry.”

Both brands stay intact. Gambly keeps serving the mainstream bettor; Unabated keeps serving the sharpest 1%. The shared investment: data ingestion, mapping, latency, data science. "We're rowing in the same direction" Spears says.

News: @gambly and @UnabatedSports are merging. The two companies have shared equity and resources for 2+ years, now are forming Gambly Ventures, Inc., with @CalSpears as CEO, @snydercoder as CTO, and @BalesBets as chief strategy officer.
