KEY TAKEAWAYS The Massachusetts Gaming Commission voted Thursday to call FanDuel to an adjudicatory hearing over proxy wagers Bill Simmons admitted to on his podcast. FanDuel reported 22 wagers totaling $21,800 placed through Simmons’s account over three days in August by an acquaintance in Massachusetts. Commissioners want to know how FanDuel allowed the bets and how it responded, not just what Simmons did. Massachusetts regulators want FanDuel to explain how Bill Simmons placed proxy bets, and how the operator handled it once it was uncovered.
