Judge won’t force Arizona to issue Class III license to West Valley
On Thursday a federal judge denied the Tohono O’Odham Nation’s request to compel state officials to issue approvals for a Class III gaming facility in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale. The tribe plans to open their $200 million Desert Diamond West Valley Casino Resort in December anyway and rely on a Class II license allowing bingo and slot-like bingo machines anyway. A state certificate is not needed for Class II gaming, the state conceded Thursday.
Ironically, the fact that the tribe can open some form of casino without the state’s blessing played a part in the judges decision not to grant a preliminary injunction. U.S. District Judge David Campbell ruled that the tribe would not suffer “irreparable harm” without a full gaming license.
Michigan chalks up record-setting October sportsbetting performance
Retail and online sportsbooks in the American state of Michigan reportedly saw their aggregated handle for October rise by 28.6% month-on-month to a record-setting $497.6 million as bettors enjoyed a plethora of sports wagering entertainment.

The source detailed that Michigan nevertheless narrowly failed to become the fifth state after New Jersey, Illinois, Nevada, and Pennsylvania to exceed the $500 million monthly mark since the 2018 lega…
Mayweather vs Pacquiao–Saturday May 2–richest fight in history
Welterweight champions Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao will go head to head at 9pm EST on May 2, 2015 in a fight that has been anticipated as the “world’s richest” since 2009. The major issues keeping the ticket dark for some six years including drug testing, purse split, and location have finally been settled. It is impossible to tune to nearly any media without hearing something about the what has variously been billed as The Battle for Greatness or The Fight of the Century.
Scalpers are asking upwards of $100,000 for tickets to the MGM Grand Garden Arena bout. An anticipated 3 million Pay Per View buys at $100 each could tip each of the fighters over the $1 billion mark for career PPV earnings. The PPV purse will be split 60/40 in Mayweather’s favor.…
