DraftKings’ Pick6 fantasy game, which launched in several states earlier this month on its DFS site, is no longer available in Maryland after the Maryland Lottery as gaming regulator ordered it withdrawn.
“Unfortunately, we’ve had to stop offering Pick6 in Maryland at this time, we hope this will change in the future,” Jon Aguiar, DraftKings’ peer to peer gaming director, posted on social media.
The Pick6 game closely mirrors DFS pick’em offerings from PrizePicks and Underdog Fantasy. Pick6 allows users to choose between two and six props, with players then competing against peers like on a traditional DFS site. Neither PrizePicks nor Underdog Fantasy offers pick’em games to Maryland customers.
Lottery officials initially allowed the new DraftKings game but then changed course.
