Can any lawyers in this thread explain to me why
http://www.draftstreet.com is exempt from UIEGA? They have daily fantasy leagues with entries from $2 to $55 dollars. How is this not gambling the same way that poker is?
In fact, shouldn't it be WORSE for them, since the 1966 wire act does apply to sportsbetting, and you could make a very strong argument that playing in a fantasy league with a payout is sportsbetting?
I mean, I get that they probably get around it with some clever wordage, etc, but it all seems pretty transparent to me and I don't get why some ****ing lawyer with a hardon to make some noise isn't targeting them.
