So much for the dog days of summer, at least when it comes to the business of sports betting and gaming in Canada and the United States of America.
Geoff Zochodne, the veteran gaming industry beat reporter for Covers, took a break from listening to hearings, transcribing interviews and tapping the keyboard to return as our guest on the latest episode of the Gaming News Canada Show. Among the many topics we covered over a lengthy conversation:
- What is motivating DraftKings to, in Zochodne’s words, “plan to hit winning players with a ‘gaming tax surcharge’?
- What make sense in terms of timing for regulated sports wagering and online gaming to arrive in Alberta and what will that marketplace look like?
- Jeff Marek’s departure from Sportsnet appears to have involved both the NHL and Nevada Gaming Control Board.
- And what’s the dilio with regards to sports betting regulators and limiting?
Zochodne also provided his perspective on the Ontario Court of Appeal case considering the expansion of online poker and daily fantasy sports, consolidation of the U.S. sports betting industry (and why it hasn’t happened in Ontario), and more.
