马萨诸塞州游戏委员会批准超级碗LVII的硬币翻转赌注

马萨诸塞州游戏委员会以3-2投票，允许有执照的体育博彩经营者在超级碗硬币翻转上接受几个博彩市场。

The Massachusetts Gaming Commission voted 3-2 Thursday to allow licensed sports betting operators to accept several betting markets on the Super Bowl coin flip.

马萨诸塞州游戏委员会周四以3比2投票，允许有执照的体育博彩经营者接受超级碗硬币翻转的几个博彩市场。

Operators will be able to offer coin toss result, coin toss winner, and coin toss call result bets for Sunday’s game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.

运营商将能够提供硬币折腾的结果，硬币折腾的冠军，以及在费城老鹰队和堪萨斯城酋长之间的周日比赛中赌注的呼叫结果。

Commissioner Brad Hill brought the issue back to the MGC after a fan at a recent basketball game he refereed yelled at him from the stands, asking if the state would allow coin flip bets during the Super Bowl.

专员布拉德·希尔（Brad Hill）在最近的一场篮球比赛中，他从看台上向他大喊大叫，询问该州是否允许在超级碗期间允许硬币翻转赌注。

Commission members flipped their results last year when they voted down the same proposal to allow coin flip bets by a vote of 2-3.

委员会成员去年投票决定以2-3的投票允许硬币翻转赌注时，将其结果翻转。

Commissioner Paul Brodeur swung the vote in favor of coin flips this year, as he and Commissioners Maynard and Hill voted for the new sports betting markets.

专员保罗·布罗德尔（Paul Brodeur）在今年投票支持硬币的投票中，因为他和专员梅纳德（Maynard）和希尔（Hill）投票赞成新的体育博彩市场。

“It’s not something that can be gamed, so I’m comfortable moving forward with this,” Brodeur said.

布罗德尔说：“这不是可以被授予的东西，所以我很愿意向前迈进。”

Hill and Maynard voted in favor of the markets last year, but former MGC Chair Cathy Judd-Stein and Commissioners Eileen O’Brien and Nakisha Skinner voted against the proposal.

希尔和梅纳德（Hill and Maynard）去年投票赞成市场，但前MGC主席Cathy Judd-Stein和专员Eileen O'Brien和Nakisha Skinner投票反对这一提案。

O’Brien pointed to the fact that no operators have petitioned the commission to add the bets to their sports betting catalogs. It’s not a “big revenue driver,” she said, and she doubts that anyone will be flocking to the unregulated markets or driving across state lines to place a bet on a coin flip.

奥布莱恩（O'Brien）指出，没有运营商请求委员会将赌注添加到他们的体育博彩目录中。她说，这不是“大收入驱动力”，她怀疑任何人都会涌向不受监管的市场或跨州行驶以押注硬币翻转。

Maynard stressed that operators should not offer the bets on short notice if they can’t offer them according to state gaming regulations.

梅纳德（Maynard）强调，如果经营者根据州游戏法规不能向他们提供赌注，则不应在短时间内提供赌注。

The MGC heard three noncompliance issues, two involving Caesars and one with Penn Sports Interactive.

MGC听到了三个违规问题，其中两个涉及凯撒，其中一个与Penn Sports Interactive。

Penn Sports Interactive, which is partnered with ESPN BET for online sports betting in the commonwealth, allegedly sent marketing materials to eight individuals who signed up for the state’s voluntary self-exclusion list. The sportsbook also sent marketing material to 36 individuals who had self-excluded with ESPN BET, but had been active at some point in Massachusetts.

宾夕法尼亚体育互动与ESPN BET在英联邦的在线体育博彩合作，据称向八名签署该州自愿性自我排斥列表的人发送了营销材料。体育博彩还向36个人发送了营销材料，他们对ESPN BET进行了自欺欺人，但在马萨诸塞州的某个时候活跃。

Investigations and Enforcement Bureau (IEB) general counsel Zachary Mercer noted that Penn Sports Interactive self-reported the incident. The company became aware of the error after a consumer complaint from a separate jurisdiction prompted an investigation.

调查和执法局（IEB）总法律顾问Zachary Mercer指出，Penn Sports Intermitive自我报告了这一事件。在来自另一个司法管辖区的消费者投诉促使调查的消费者投诉之后，该公司意识到了这一错误。

Penn Sports Interactive reported the issue was due to human error from their marketing team “checking or unchecking appropriate boxes to filter communications sent to patrons.”

Penn Sports Interactive报道了问题是由于其营销团队的人为错误所致，“检查或取消选中适当的盒子以过滤发送给顾客的通信”。

The MGC unanimously agreed to send the issue back to the IEB for further investigation and a recommendation on how to move forward.

MGC一致同意将问题发送回IEB进行进一步调查，并提出有关如何前进的建议。

The MGC also sent a noncompliance incident with Caesars Sportsbook back to the IEB for further investigation regarding the sportsbook’s knowledge based authentication question requirements.

MGC还向IEB发送了与Caesars Sports Book的违规事件，以进一步调查有关体育博彩基于知识的身份验证问题要求的进一步调查。

Mercer explained to the commission that Caesars Sportsbook was out of compliance with the state’s knowledge based authentication question requirements from Sept. 1, 2023, through April 9, 2024.

默瑟向委员会解释说，凯撒体育博彩不符合该州基于知识的身份验证问题要求，从2023年9月1日至2024年4月9日。

Mercer said Caesars Sportsbook believed it had been in compliance with the state regulation during that time period after several discussions with the regulatory body.

默瑟说，凯撒体育书认为在与监管机构进行了几次讨论之后，在那段时间内，它符合州法规。

Caesars believed it was in compliance with regulations until the sports wagering division informed them they were not in July 2024. They reported they had no intent to willfully disregard non-compliance.

凯撒（Caesars）认为，这是遵守法规，直到体育投资部门告诉他们他们不在2024年7月。

Finally, the MGC agreed to hold an adjudicatory hearing for Caesars regarding an incident in which the sportsbook accepted bets on “total red cards” in a 2024 UEFA soccer tournament. Caesars Sportsbook accepted six bets between June 27, 2024 and July 9, 2024 for a total stake of $8,270.

最后，MGC同意举行凯撒审判性听证会，该听证会在2024年的欧洲足球足球锦标赛中接受了一项事件，该事件接受了对“总红牌”的赌注。凯撒体育博彩（Caesars Sportsbook）在2024年6月27日至2024年7月9日之间接受了六个赌注，总股份为8,270美元。

State law prohibits bets on injuries, penalties, player discipline, or play review.

州法律禁止押注伤害，处罚，球员纪律或审查。

The erroneous bets were not reported by Caesars Sportsbook. The sports wagering division informed the company they were offering prohibited bets.

Caesars Sportsbook没有报告错误的赌注。体育下注部门通知了他们提供的禁止赌注的公司。

The MGC decided on an adjudicatory hearing without sending the incident back to the IEB for further investigation.

MGC决定进行审判听证会，而无需将事件发送回IEB以进行进一步调查。
