Arizona ADG orders five operators to stop gambling activity
Arizona’s Department of Gaming issued cease-and-desist orders directing five operators, including ClubWPT, to shut down gambling operations in the state. The ADG cited alleged illegal gambling promotion, unlawful enterprise control and money laundering; it said failure to comply could prompt civil or criminal action, while ClubWPT maintains that it operates under applicable sweepstakes laws.
The orders require the named operators to stop online and mobile gambling activity in Arizona or risk further legal action.
