Hacksaw Gaming Advances to West Virginia with BetMGM Partnership
Before the turn of the last year, Hacksaw Gaming took its long-standing relationship with BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, to new heights as the pair celebrated their successful debut in West Virginia. The entry followed closely on the heels of Hacksaw games becoming available on BetMGM’s Ontario site in May, which signified their first stop on the North American front. As Hacksaw gains momentum with licensing, so has the impact of its game portfolio. The studio plans to deepen its roots in America alongside BetMGM by widening its base to New Jersey in the coming months.
BetMGM stands prominently among the top 3 uncontested sportsbooks in the state of West Virginia. With slots constituting the majority of the game selection on the BetMGM West Virginia casino app, the addition of Hacksaw’s captivating themes and gameplay elements offers West Virginians a compelling gaming escapade to remember. The first batch of games included chart-toppers Joker Bombs and Outlaws Inc., serving as an exclusive sneak-peak into the diverse offerings of Hacksaw Gaming. The games were featured and positioned in lucrative spots on the online casino site to amplify the impact of the launch. More Hacksaw titles have been introduced on the site since, captivating players within a community expected to grow exponentially.

BetMGM and the Cavinder Twins to Debut “The Court of Legends” at Bellagio in Las Vegas for College Basketball Championship
BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, will team up with Haley and Hanna Cavinder — former Division I basketball players and prominent social media influencers — to unveil The Court of Legends, a first–of–its–kind, speakeasy–style basketball experience, April 4-6 at Bellagio in Las Vegas during the final weekend of March Matchups.
Hidden within the resort, the Court of Legends will feature an immersive, custom-built court serving as the hub for BetMGM’s March basketball celebrations. Throughout the weekend, the venue will host exclusive events and influencer-driven basketball exhibitions, all building toward a Cavinder vs. Cavinder skills showdown on Sunday, April 5. The twins will go head-to–head in custom competitions, with the event live streamed on X, YouTube and the BetMGM app, giving fans a front-row seat to the action.
“BetMGM is committed to creating legendary experiences for our players that go beyond the game, and the Court of Legends will be our most ambitious idea yet. We’re creating something epic that blends basketball, entertainment and the unmistakable energy of Las Vegas. With their rare ability to connect with fans on and off the court, Haley and Hanna are the perfect partners to bring this concept to life,” said Casey Hurbis, Chief Marketing Officer at BetMGM.
The Cavinder twins said in a joint statement: “We’ve played on a lot of courts over the years, but nothing like the Court of Legends. BetMGM is bringing together VIPs, creators, and all the vibes in one place, and we’re excited to step on that floor, compete, and have fun.”

FanDuel to Eliminate Credit Card Deposits Starting March 2
FanDuel Sportsbook will no longer accept deposits by credit cards beginning March 2, the same step DraftKings Sportsbook took in August.
FanDuel issued a statement saying this decision has been in the works.
“Over the last few months, FanDuel has been evaluating the payment methods that we offer to customers and made the decision to remove credit cards as an option for our Sportsbook, casino and racing product in the United States. This change was made to improve the deposit experience for our customers,” the sportsbook said.
Many sports bettors don’t use credit cards because they are responsible for the fees.
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts applauded FanDuel’s actions.
“Last week, I asked sports betting companies about Americans getting scammed by credit card companies when placing sports bets – to the tune of a $10 junk fee just to fund a $20 bet,” Warren posted on social media.
“Glad to see Fanduel take action to protect consumers from these junk fees, joining DraftKings. The rest of the industry should follow suit.”
Two notable sportsbooks with nationwide locations, BetMGM and Caesars, accept credit cards.
FanDuel also announced Jan. 22 a program called “Play with a Plan” to encourage responsible wagering. Bettors are able to track their account activity, set spending limits and establish deposit notifications.
