Sky Bet extends sponsorship of The Overlap
Sky Bet has renewed its partnership with The Overlap – the UK’s No.1 football YouTube channel founded by Gary Neville – for a further two years.
As a founding partner since the channel’s launch in April 2021, Sky Bet will continue as the headline sponsor of The Overlap Interviews and Fan Debates, key formats that have helped the channel become a leading voice in football content.
Featuring in-depth conversations with major figures from sport and entertainment, as well as dynamic debates between football legends and fan creators, The Overlap has built a dedicated audience and strong community.
Sky Bet will also maintain its presence in the weekly Stick to Football podcast through the popular Super 6 segment. The feature sees panellists Roy Keane, Ian Wright, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, and Gary Neville predict six results from the weekend’s matches in the free-to-play football game, Super 6.
The renewed partnership underscores Sky Bet’s continued commitment to delivering original, fan-first football content that resonates with audiences across platforms.
Gary Neville Quote: “I want to thank Sky Bet for partnering with us over the past four years. Without their support, we wouldn’t have been able to deliver the content you see today. It’s fantastic to have them on board for another two years, and I’m excited to see what we can achieve together.”

New Hampshire Charitable Gaming Revenue Hits $24.8M in July

New Hampshire charitable gaming revenue has reached $24.8 million last month, up from the previous year’s figure of $14.5 million, boosted by the opening of new casinos.
The latest figures come from the New Hampshire Lottery and Gaming Commission, which shows that of the 15 casinos, only four saw losses, while four others were not in operation last July.
The Nash Casino, which opened in March, generated the highest revenue of all the casinos – $5.8 million.
The highest year-over-year increase was seen by the Revo Casino Lebanon, which opened in a new location in December, and saw revenue rise by 321% from $387,836 to over $1.6 million.
Other notable rises were seen from the Lakes Region Casino, which generated an increase of 24% year-over-year and The Brook, which saw a 17% rise from $4.7 million to $5.5 million.
The biggest declines came from The Lucky Moose Casino, where profits dropped by 79% from $666,454 to $139,748, and the Gate City Casino, which saw profits fall by 16% from $2.7 million to $2.3 million.
Historic horse racing revenue rose by 85% year-over-year, from $10.6 million to $19.7 million, while games of chance revenue increased by 53% from $3.3 million to $5.1 million.

Nevada Rep. Dina Titus to Add FAIR BET Act to 2026 Defense Budget

Nevada Rep. Dina Titus is strategically pushing forward her Fair Accounting for Income Realized from Betting Earnings Taxation Act, commonly known as the FAIR BET Act. She intends to attach it to the 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a key piece of legislation that must pass annually. This maneuver, revealed on August 27, is designed to increase the chances that her proposal will be enacted into law.
The FAIR BET Act seeks to reverse a disputed provision introduced under former President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The provision lowered the gambling loss deduction from 100% to 90%, which is set to take effect in January 2026. This change has met significant resistance from both the gaming industry and individual gamblers, who argue that it unfairly taxes money that they never actually won.
Representative Titus, who co-leads the Congressional Gaming Caucus, initially introduced this succinct bill in July. However, it stalled in the House Ways and Means Committee. To overcome this hurdle, she is leveraging a common legislative tactic by attaching the amendment to the NDAA. Around two decades ago, a similar strategy helped pass the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act amid a port security bill.
The initiative enjoys strong support from major gaming industry leaders and state officials. Prominent executives from companies such as MGM Resorts, Caesars, and Wynn Resorts have expressed concern to lawmakers about the financial impact this deduction limit could have on both players and casinos. The American Gaming Association has also condemned the recent tax rule, stressing that it unfairly penalizes a legal and regulated industry.
The FAIR BET Act is gaining momentum across party lines. So far, ten members in the House have endorsed it as co-sponsors. In addition, a Republican counterpart titled the WAGER Act was introduced in July by Representative Andy Barr of Kentucky. In the Senate, Nevada Senator Catherine Cortez Masto has proposed a similar measure known as the FULL HOUSE Act.
Supporters emphasize the importance of this amendment for states like Nevada, where gambling significantly contributes to the economy. However, some critics argue that inserting tax policy changes into a defense authorization bill represents an overreach by lawmakers.
The amendment is currently under review by the House Rules Committee, with a vote expected within the next several weeks.

Jake Paul-Linked Gambling App Betr Arcade Launches

Betr, the gambling and fantasy sports operator founded by Joey Levy and social media personality-turned-boxer Jake Paul, has introduced Betr Arcade, a cash-based gaming product built on head-to-head competition. The new feature launched earlier this month inside the Betr Picks daily fantasy sports platform and includes four games: 21, Fruit Match, Crossout 21, and 5 Across.
Unlike traditional casino play, these contests pit players directly against one another, rather than against the operator. Entry begins at $1.25 per game, with a practice option available for those who want to try the formats without wagering before entering for money. You should also ensure that you take advantage of a Betr picks promo code before entering for real money.
Levy described Betr Arcade as the company’s dedicated skill-gaming product, noting that it is already live in 29 states. He added that more titles and additional categories will be released in the coming months, broadening the scope of the Betr app beyond fantasy and skill-based contests.
The launch arrives as legal real-money online casinos are only offered in seven states, meaning that most of the nation cannot access regulated content. Focusing on peer-to-peer platforms, which are not subject to the same regulations as casino sites, Betr has been able to provide its services in states that ban casino play.
That includes big markets like Florida, Texas, and California, which have previously seen regulators crack down on against-the-house fantasy games. The peer-to-peer approach has allowed Betr to continue operating while expanding into new skill-based products.
Betr is not the only operator adapting its model to navigate state-level restrictions. Rival daily fantasy sports (DFS) operator PrizePicks has confirmed it no longer offers against-the-house Pick ’em contests in the US, shifting entirely to its peer-to-peer Arena product.
The change took effect on Aug. 22, according to a company spokesperson, who highlighted the move as an effort to deliver a more social and sustainable DFS product.
Previously, PrizePicks offered Pick ’em in 17 states and Washington, D.C., including major markets like California and Texas, where fantasy sports remain unregulated. Arena, first launched in January 2024, requires players to pay an entry fee to join competitions against other users, with prizes awarded to the highest-scoring lineups.
The format has been positioned as less vulnerable to regulatory pushback, as some state authorities have likened Pick ’em contests to sports betting.
PrizePicks had already shifted to Arena-only play in California in June, shortly before the Attorney General’s office issued an opinion stating that all DFS products violated state law. Following that decision, Underdog Fantasy also removed its Pick ’em contests in California.
Currently, PrizePicks is active in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and every Canadian province except Ontario. It has also secured a license in Puerto Rico.
