Man who lost $308,000 on sports bets sues Kalshi for offering illegal gambling
摘要
华盛顿州贝尔维尤居民斯科特·布莱特在Kalshi平台进行体育博彩损失逾30.8万美元后,起诉该预测市场违反该州网络赌博禁令,并寻求超过58万美元的赔偿。诉状称其下注时华盛顿州已认定此类行为违法,且州总检察长此前已对KalshiEX LLC提起诉讼。在全美多州总检察长试图关停Kalshi之际,此案考验败诉赌客能否通过个人诉讼向该公司追偿损失。
A man who lost over $308,000 making sports wagers on Kalshi is suing the prediction market for violating the state of Washington's ban on online gambling. He's trying to turn those losses into an overall victory with a lawsuit seeking a payment of over $580,000.
Bellevue, Washington, resident Scott Bright's "wagering occurred at a time when it was unlawful in Washington and when the Washington Attorney General had already sued KalshiEX LLC in this Court alleging precisely that," said the gambler's lawsuit filed on October 23 in King County Superior Court.
While state attorneys general throughout the US are trying to shut down Kalshi for allegedly violating state gambling laws, Bright's case tests whether unsuccessful gamblers can obtain restitution from the company through individual lawsuits.
