A sportsbook in Atlantic City has been fined for taking $25,000 worth of bets on games that had already happened. The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement fined William Hill $20,000 for the bets it wrongly took which occurred in 2022 and 2023. The sports betting company operates retail sportsbooks in Caesars, Harrah’s, and Tropicana casinos and was found to have taken bets on college basketball, hockey games, and boxing matches. According to the documents that have been made public, the company took 42 bets through in-person kiosks on 12 college basketball games after the game had already concluded. William Hill paid out just over $5,000 to customers on six bets before the issue became known which caused the remainder of the bets to be voided and the customers’ initial wagers to be returned.
