Nevada gaming board accepts Flutter surrender; DraftKings withdraws applications
Nevada’s Gaming Control Board accepted the surrender of Flutter’s registration and FanDuel-related licences and approvals, while DraftKings withdrew its pending Nevada sports betting applications. The board said the companies’ planned sports event contracts were incompatible with participation in Nevada’s gaming industry; Flutter said it had supported Boyd Gaming in the state without operating a consumer sportsbook.
The decisions remove both companies’ Nevada gaming approvals or pending applications as they prepare to offer sports event contracts.
