The Florida Gaming Control Commission in September sent cease-and-desist letters to three fantasy sports operators, threatening legal action if the 2️⃣ sites didn't immediately stop.
But Sen. Joe Gruters, R-Sarasota, wants the commission to explain why the businesses were targeted and to 2️⃣ clarify why they could be breaking the law while the biggest players in the industry - DraftKings and FanDuel - 2️⃣ aren't. The senator raised the issues in a Dec. 18 letter to the commission's executive director, Lou Trombetta.
Gruters pointed to 2️⃣ the cease-and-desist letters Trombetta sent to Underdog Sports, LLC; SidePrize LLC, also known as Performance Predictions LLC, doing business as 2️⃣ PrizePicks; and Betr Holdings, Inc.
Gruters' letter asked why "the two largest fantasy sports operators" in Florida did not receive similar 2️⃣ threats from the commission.
"The letters definitively state that 'betting or wagering on the result of contests of skill ... including 2️⃣ fantasy sports betting, is strictly prohibited and constitutes a felony offense.' Notably, however, the commission's public position is less definitive. 2️⃣ In the FAQs (frequently asked questions) on the commission's website, the commission states that 'wagering on fantasy sports' is 'probably 2️⃣ not' legal. I am concerned that the commission is applying an interpretation that is not supported by law and that 2️⃣ the commission may be selectively enforcing its interpretation," Gruters wrote.
