Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the racing, pari-mutuel wagering and breeding law, in relation to requiring mobile sports wagering operators to establish default betting limits on their platforms and to notify authorized sports bettors of their ability to opt-out of the default betting limits

AI Summary

This bill, known as the "choice in responsible gaming act," mandates that mobile sports wagering operators establish and implement "default betting limits," which are pre-set maximum amounts of money that a registered user can wager within a specific timeframe. These limits will be determined by the commission based on best practices for encouraging responsible gambling. All authorized sports bettors, both new and existing, will automatically be enrolled in these default limits, but they will have the clear option to opt-out. Operators are required to inform users about the existence of these default limits and their ability to opt-out at the time of registration, and to notify existing users that they have been opted-in and can choose to opt-out.
