Caesars and Golden Nugget fined for accepting illegal sports bets in New Jersey

The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE) has penalized Caesars Entertainment and Golden Nugget for accepting bets related to New Jersey college football games.
The DGE complaints were filed in November and fines were levied in December.
These are the first known fines related to illegal wagers handed out by the DGE since NJ sports betting went live in June.
As per the DGE report, Caesars was fined $2,000 on Dec. 15 after acknowledging the error to regulatory officials.
The court filing states that:
“Caesars acknowledged the violation and agreed with the Division’s civil penalty determination.”
In a separate ruling, Golden Nugget was similarly caught accepting 10 bets from unknown individuals on “various New Jersey College Football Games in September 2018.”
From the filing:
“Once discovered, the wagers were cancelled; however, the funds were unable to be refunded to the patrons due to their unknown identities.”
Golden Nugget was fined the amount of $390 in gaming winnings owed to those 10 unknown individuals.
