Buenos Aires City's specialised gambling prosecutor's office said a man was sentenced to three years in prison after an abbreviated trial for organising and operating an unauthorised betting network. The court-approved agreement also requires him to donate money to LOTBA, attend a gambling-harm awareness course and complete 100 hours of public service.

The sentence and related requirements show the consequences for organising unlicensed gambling in Buenos Aires City.
