"@Kalshi is the mob going to Washington DC in 1952 and saying, 'We'd really like to have gambling in all 50 states.'" Mick Mulvaney doesn't pull punches when it comes to prediction markets My latest for @RotoWire @NCLGS @EndBackdoorBets rotowire.com/article/mulvane… – at San Diego, CA

At @NCLGS, a @MassGamingComm commissioner asks a FanDuel director in front of attendees if he has a comment on the Bryce Harper situation. Unsurprisingly, not much of a response. The gist: "It's a developing situation ... certainly something we're going to be very focused on."

Issues concerning prediction markets from @NevadaGCB chairman Mike Dreitzer: ✅️ Truth in advertising. ✅️ Geolocation ✅️ Regulation by Tweet or podcast sounds good but it doesn't work ✅️ Nevada's position that PMs are illegal. If someone commits a crime in another state, we care about that. ✅️ Gambling left to the states, we agree with that ✅️ Nevada intends to seek disengorgement ✅️ Gaming, non-gaming states and tribes all aligned on this issue ✅️ Take a stand wherever it comes up ✅️ 3 Act Play 1. Sports betting 2. Online gaming in all 50 states is here - slot product available. 3. A DCM had a prediction lounge - where people could meet and trade ✅️ "Proud Slot Regulator" seeing slots run by historic race results and bingo but PMs are imposing this on all 50 states ✅️ "This is an end run for us to have sports betting in all 50 states" - one OSB operator who runs a DCM ✅️ Not too big to fail or regulate. ✅️ Simplicity of new technology is good for players but it has to be done the right way. States do it well & properly. ✅️ Need to have proper protections in place. States have resources to do this well. ✅️ 18-year-olds trading on PMs. 18 & 19 YOs should not be allowed to do this. ✅️ Know the debris that this is leaving. This is hurting people. Casual people think this is fun and a hedge fund is crushing them. ✅️ Nevada is reviewing a PM product that could operate in state. Come in and get a license like everyone else. ✅️ "They're hiding" in a scheme under federal regulation. – at San Diego, CA

I was told I am banned from future @NCLGS events by @WVUFLU if I didn’t relay this quote to the public. So here is the group’s president on the CFTC, which used to be focused on agricultural commodities: “You’re saying you're going from crops to props, and you're betting.”

Here's my first dispatch from the @NCLGS Summer Meeting in San Diego: Prediction markets were naturally going to be a prominent focus here. And on Thursday, the key question in the room was: What can legislators actually do about them? sbcamericas.com/2026/07/09/n…

Online access is the driving force of the problems with gambling and with the ways to fix it. OSB industry has done more tha any other industry in dealing with both problem & responsible gambling We need to find out what practices are working - Dave Rebuck @_IC360 and former director NJ Department of Gaming Enforcement @NCLGS – at San Diego, CA

Prediction Markets in the US are not investing and are not peer-to-peer. Putting your money at risk for a sporting event is not an investment. And it is common man vs hedgefunds. If I have a 5-team parlay - I need someone on the other end of it. The counterpart is a hedge fund that will beat the brains in of a common bettor. - Mike Dreitzer, Chairman Nevada Gaming Control – at San Diego, CA

Major applause for @NCLGS using a panel to highlight the ongoing harassment college athletes are experiencing as a result of sports betting. I hope the regulators and lawmakers in the room are hearing these stats and stories and realize there is no good reason to allow college props.
