The Massachusetts Gaming Commission unanimously agreed to assess a civil administrative penalty to FanDuel for accepting three improper bets on a Massachusetts men’s college basketball team earlier this year.
The MGC agreed to fine FanDuel $10,000 for accepting three future bets between March 9, 2024 and March 13, 2024, for a total of $11 on the Boston College men’s basketball team’s performance in the NCAA tournament.
Massachusetts sports betting regulations prohibit any sports bets on in-state colleges or universities, unless they are participating in a tournament. The three bets in question were placed on the program prior to the team officially qualifying for the national college basketball tournament.
