In March 2022 Rush Street took seven bets amounting to just under $2,900 on three Magic City Jai Alai video games after the outcomes were currently understood.

Kambi informed the division it experienced a connectivity problem that permitted the bets to be accepted after the video games were over. An explanation of what Kambi did to deal with the scenario was blacked out in documents released by the department.

DraftKings was fined for taking bets on unapproved occasions including 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 Feb. 2022, the division said DraftKings took bets including specific players but did not give the state specific information on what info was to be consisted of in the bets, drawing 182 wagers worth almost $7,000 that were later on voided and reimbursed to consumers.
