Daniel Maloney Begins Tenure as New Hampshire Lottery’s First Director of Sports Betting
With opportunities for sports betting expanding across New Hampshire, the New Hampshire Lottery recently hired Daniel Maloney to be its first Director of Sports Betting. In this role, Maloney will lead sports betting sales strategies and executions, and will identify potential partners. Originally from New York, Maloney has extensive experience with gaming regulation and compliance, most recently working as an intern at the Nevada Gaming Control Board. Maloney began his tenure with the New Hampshire Lottery in August 2020.
“We are pleased to welcome Daniel Maloney to our team in this critical new strategic role to help us continue to implement and expand upon our already successful sports betting infrastructure,” said Charlie McIntyre, Executive Director, New Hampshire Lottery. “We are proud of our initial success with sports betting and we have every expectation that we will continue to build momentum. Danny will play a major role in our efforts to maximize this channel in support of education in New Hampshire. The future is bright for sports betting in New Hampshire.”
The Director of Sports Betting position was created as part of the 2019 legislation establishing a system for sports betting in New Hampshire. The position oversees all aspects of sports betting in the Granite State and coordinates directly with partners, including DraftKings and physical sportsbook locations, to support sports betting opportunities and to ensure compliance with state regulations.
The New Hampshire Lottery launched mobile sports betting with DraftKings in December 2019 and since that time, more than 40,000 sports fans have registered to place wagers in New Hampshire. Players have made more than 4.7 million bets totaling more than $140 million. The New Hampshire Lottery and DraftKings have opened two physical sportsbooks over the past two months: DraftKings Sportsbook at Manchester housed at Filotimo Casino & Bar in Manchester and DraftKings Sportsbook at The Brook in Seabrook.
“I am extremely excited to be able to step into this new position with the New Hampshire Lottery,” Maloney said. “I could not imagine a better role for myself and I look forward to working collaboratively with the New Hampshire Lottery team and its partners to continue to build on the Granite State’s reputation as the go-to destination for sports betting in the northeast. With DraftKings’s easy-to-use app providing countless opportunities for sports wagering in an engaging platform, coupled with world-class physical destinations, New Hampshire features an unparalleled sports betting experience.”
Maloney, who now resides in Manchester, has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from Queens College in New York, a Doctor of Law degree from Seton Hall University of Law, and a Master’s of Law degree in gaming and regulation from the University of Nevada-Las Vegas, William S. Boyd School of Law, as well as 12 years of experience in contract and compliance law.

Tonybet pays first $15,000 CAD prize in World Cup Card Collection Canada promo
Bronze card has been claimed during the group stage; silver and gold prizes remain available until 31 July.
Tonybet said it has paid out its first major prize in its World Cup Card Collection campaign for Canadian customers (excluding Ontario), after a player secured the promotion’s bronze card worth $15,000 CAD.
The operator said the World Cup Card Collection includes 51 cards to collect during the tournament: 48 digital cards tied to participating World Cup nations, plus three unique cards—gold, silver and bronze—linked to a $150,000 CAD total prize fund.
According to Tonybet, the bronze card has been available through the World Cup’s group stage and has now been claimed. The silver card is available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals, while the gold card is held back for the closing semi-finals and final.
Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “With Canada co-hosting the World Cup for the first time, the tournament has felt closer to home than ever before for Canadians, and it has already delivered a moment most supporters could only dream about with the national team advancing to the knockout stages.
“For one lucky Canada supporter, it has now produced another story that will be worth retelling long after the final whistle has gone – with our lucky winner among the first Tonybet customers to win one of the unique cards in our World Cup Card Collection, taking home a cool $15,000 for managing to get his hands on bronze. Who will end up with silver and gold?”
Tonybet said the same three unique cards are also in circulation across its other markets, with varying outcomes so far. The World Cup Card Collection campaign runs until 31 July, with a $150,000 CAD prize pool for Canada and separate prize pools in other markets.
