Draftkings fined after Slots "glitch" made it impossible to win


The Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection's Gaming Division has fined DraftKings $19,000 for a non-paying online slot.

The investigation also found that DraftKings has discovered a technical glitch meant that the game was incapable of generating any winning paylines. In one instance, a VIP customer who flagged the issue with a video of the game being played 50 times without a win was locked out of their account and referred to gambling addiction services. DCP records provided to local press show that the issue had been flagged for internal investigations with White Hat Gaming three days prior to the complaints.
