There are 16??legal NJ sportsbook programs that are online. BetOpenly.com, however, isn’t one of these.
Plus it appears that the company won’t conduct business in the Garden State.
The first peer reviewed sports gaming network of the USA started in early August. The New Jersey Division of Gaming??Enforcement??caught end of their illegal performance and quickly brought it to a finish.
A letter dated Sept. 5, 2019, from NJ Assistant Attorney General Louis S. Rogacki??to??Open Games LLC provides a??very clear explanation.
Here’s a??snippet??in the letter:
BetOpenly also does not operate in Washington, and Arizona, Alabama, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada.
The letter, which was sent into the California bookies gambling Control Commission and the California Bureau of Gambling Control, essentially notifies BetOpenly its site is”contrary to New Jersey and national law.”
The letter makes it clear that NJ won’t be allowing such an slide under the radar:
If BetOpenly doesn’t follow through on those demands, New Jersey could”pursue criminal or civil sanctions” against the sports betting site.
All of NJ sportsbooks are needed to have a partner, whether it is a casino or racetrack. NJ online casinos and online gambling websites should possess an Atlantic City casino associate.
For instance, DraftKings Sportsbook and DraftKings Casino both operate under the Resorts Atlantic City online gambling license. All three operations are regulated by the DGE.
BetOpenly worked outside these rules and outside the regulatory strategy.
After BetOpenly rolled out its US operations, the premise was constructed around”bypass the home fees.”
According to a press release, the concept”allows users to create a??wager??on any sport, at any odds, for another??user to take.”
FanDuel Sportsbook, DraftKings Sportsbook, also William Hill NJ??provide traditional formats in which customers are charged a commission when they lose (such as 10% on average with spread stakes ).
BetOpenly went with a different format. Users send friends via text or email bets.
And in the process, BetOpenly has been”the sole web-based platform enabling users to make their own chances and lines, all at just 1 percent.”
Company founder??Gino??Donati??shared he started the company:
At the time of the DGE’s announcement, BetOpenly had nearly 400 active customers.
And when BetOpenly continues to accept NJ wagers following the warning letter, the DGE won’t be standing tap.
DGE Director??David Rebuck??has obtained a firm stance against illegal and offshore bookmakers.?? Cryptocurrency is??a digital form of cash??with an component for it. But Bitcoin won’t be permitted at NJ anytime soon.
During a panel discussion in the East Coast Gaming Congress of June, which took place Rebuck dealt with the Issue with overseas operators:
“[Offshore sites] are extremely good at what they do. We’ll keep fighting . That will be a future issue.”
