A Texas gambling bust uncovered an alleged scheme involving trading cards as gambling payouts, while FanDuel emerged as the latest gambling operator to test digital card rips. Trading cards have surged in popularity among consumers, attracting growing interest from the gambling industry as both valuable prizes and the basis for new chance-based products. That convergence came into focus this week in San Antonio, Texas, where authorities raided an alleged illegal gambling operation that awarded Pokémon and sports cards instead of cash, with winners able to sell the collectibles for hundreds of dollars.
