Nevada Gaming Control Board Chairman Mike Dreitzer said on a podcast that prediction market operators such as Kalshi are running illegal sportsbooks, and that Nevada has no fallback plan if the Supreme Court sides with them. He urged tribes and licensees to hold firm, even though several tribes have partnered with Kalshi this month. The comments followed a CFTC interim rule of 9 October excluding casino-style gambling products from the definition of a swap, alongside a proposed rule covering event contracts.

Nevada Gaming Control Board Chairman Mike Dreitzer said he expected the CFTC’s move. The agency proposed defining event contracts as swaps while excluding casino-style gambling, including sportsbook wagers and casino games. Dreitzer said sports event contracts and online sportsbook bets are the same, while Kalshi filed for a rehearing after losing a unanimous ruling against Ohio and Tennessee regulators.
Nevada's chief gaming regulator said he expected the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to push ahead with its prediction-market overhaul. Mike Dreitzer, who chairs the Nevada Gaming Control Board, told the Indian Gaming Association's weekly webinar on Wednesday that the agency has been acting in concert with designated contract markets. He called the line the CFTC draws between event contracts and sportsbook wagers "an untenable distinction without a difference." The commission released two proposals late last Friday, one of which would classify event contracts as swaps under federal law and bar traditional gambling.
