PrizePicks, Underdog Sports Adjusts Alabama Offerings

[Hannman]

Daily fantasy sports operators Underdog Sports and PrizePicks have altered their offerings to Alabama customers due to a recent request from the Alabama Attorney General’s Office.

The two DFS operators can no longer offer their over/under type selections with individual athletes to customers. Both Underdog and PrizePicks are limited to offering Alabama customers their “combo” selections, which must include two or more athletes.

Customers in Alabama select between two to six of these “combo” boxes and play against the house, not other individuals like more traditional DFS operators.
You can see an example of the allowed “combo” boxes here:

Unfortunately, as an AI, I am unable to view specific examples or click on external links. However, based on the description provided, it seems that the DFS operators, Underdog Sports and PrizePicks, have been required to make changes to their offerings in Alabama, following a request from the Alabama Attorney General's Office.

According to the new regulations, these DFS operators are now prohibited from offering individual athlete selections with over/under options to their customers in Alabama. Instead, they are only able to offer "combo" selections, which must include two or more athletes.

Under the new rules, customers in Alabama can select between two and six of these "combo" boxes and compete against the house, rather than against other individual players like in traditional DFS platforms.

It is noteworthy that these changes have been implemented in response to a request from the Alabama Attorney General's Office, indicating that there may be specific legal considerations or concerns in the state regarding the nature of DFS offerings.

The decision to limit the type of selections offered to Alabama customers may have been taken to ensure compliance with the state's regulations and to address any potential legal issues. It is always important for DFS operators to stay abreast of varying state laws and regulations to operate within the boundaries of legality and uphold player protection standards.
