<ul>
<li>DOJ says use of algorithms can have anticompetitive effects</li>
<li>Plaintiffs filed appeal after district court dismissed case</li>
</ul>
The Justice Department filed an amicus brief supporting customers who accused Ceasars Entertainment Inc. and other Las Vegas hotel companies of using algorithms to fix prices.
"Pricing algorithms can process more information more rapidly than humans aided by prior communications technologies," the DOJ said in a brief <a href="https://www.bloomberglaw.com/public/document/GibsonetalvCendynGroupLLCetalDocketNo2435769thCirJun072024CourtDo/1?doc_id=X1C3FTC0O19985PKTQSAR19NQ0H">filed</a> Thursday in the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. "For this reason, such algorithms can increase the means and opportunities for collusion among competitors."
The Vegas case is the first of its kind to reach a federal appeals court and is expected to impact similar suits going forward.
A group of consumer plaintiffs who stayed at various Vegas hotels filed an <a href="https://www.bloomberglaw.com/public/document/GibsonetalvCendynGroupLLCetalDocketNo2435769thCirJun072024CourtDo?doc_id=XN44RIOULS87MRO4N2HPLUJE1C">appeal</a> to the Ninth Circuit after Judge Miranda Du of the US District Court for the District of Nevada <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/caesars-other-vegas-hotels-win-dismissal-of-price-fixing-suit">dismissed</a> the case in May, saying they failed to plausibly allege a tacit agreement between the hotels to inflate room prices using algorithms built by the Rainmaker Group, a Cendyn Group LLC subsidiary.
In her ruling, Du said she reached her <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/las-vegas-ruling-offers-roadmap-for-ai-clashes-with-antitrust">decision</a> because the hotel-casinos signed up for the pricing software services at different times and the hotels weren't bound by the software's recommendations. A nearly identical suit accusing Atlantic City hotel-casinos was <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/hotel-casino-rulings-reveal-flaws-in-ai-price-fixing-allegations">dismissed</a> late last month on similar grounds.
The DOJ rejected Du's notion that the freedom to reject the software's pricing recommendations meant no collusion took place.

A bettor was able to turn $10 into more than $131,000 thanks to many of the favorites in Week 6 winning their NFL games and scoring lots of points, reversing an early season<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/09/41056777/nfl-week-4-betting-odds-national-tv-games-will-daniel-jones-stay-winless-on-thursdays-how-"> trend of underdogs winning.</a>
What Happened: One of the common themes of the 2024 NFL season start was underdog teams covering the spread and sometimes winning. The Minnesota Vikings and the Kansas City Chiefs — attempting to win a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/07/39752864/bettors-favor-kansas-city-chiefs-for-super-bowl-three-peat-heres-a-look-at-how-states-are-">third straight Super Bowl</a> —were the only two unbeaten teams.
A bettor at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/fanatics">Fanatics sportsbook</a> decided to test their luck on the favorites reversing course and winning their games and covering the spread during the Week 6 matchups. The bettor also predicted that several of the games would hit the over, meaning lots of points scored.
The bet of $10 turned into $131,390 <a href="https://x.com/BFawkes22/status/1846031593317847161">according </a>to sports betting reporter Ben Fawkes. Here were the 16 legs in the parlay that all needed to hit to win the bet and the outcomes that helped the legs win.
<ul>
<li>San Francisco 49ers/Seattle Seahawks Over 49: 60 points scored</li>
<li>San Francisco 49ers -3.5: 49ers won by 12 points</li>
<li>Jacksonville Jaguars/Chicago Bears Over 44.5: 51 points scored</li>
<li>Chicago Bears -2.5: Bears won by 19 points</li>
<li>Houston Texans/New England Patriots Over 38: 62 points scored</li>
<li>Houston Texans -7: Texans won by 20</li>
<li>Washington Commanders/Baltimore Ravens Over 51: 53 points scored</li>
<li>Philadelphia Eagles Moneyline: Eagles won by 4</li>
<li>Tampa Bay Buccaneers/New Orleans Saints Over 41: 78 points scored</li>
<li>Pittsburgh Steelers/Las Vegas Raiders Over 37: 45 points scored</li>
<li>Pittsburgh Steelers -3: Steelers won by 19</li>
<li>Los Angeles Chargers/Denver Broncos Over 35: 39 points scored</li>
<li>Atlanta Falcons/Carolina Panthers Over 46.5: 58 points scored</li>
<li>Atlanta Falcons Moneyline: Falcons won by 18</li>
<li>Cincinnati Bengals -3.5: Bengals won by 10</li>
<li>Buffalo Bills -2.5: won by 3</li>
</ul>
The 16-leg parlay included bets on 11 of the 14 Week 6 games with some games consisting of a bet on the spread and the over. Based on the results above, the closest contests to the bets were the over/under on the Commanders/Ravens hitting by two points and the Bills covering the -2.5 spread by 0.5 points.
The Bills winning came on the very last game of the week, with the team beating the New York Jets by 3 points in the Monday Night Football contest that aired on ESPN, a unit of The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>).

Why It's Important: Parlays have quickly become one of the top betting items for sportsbooks. Bettors often make plays that resemble lottery tickets of high risk and unlikely odds of hitting. However, there are huge payouts if they do.
Benzinga has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/09/40858975/nfl-fan-turns-100-bet-into-25k-with-wild-football-prediction-for-thursday-night-game"> reported on several parlays </a>before that have paid out huge winnings for the unlikeliest of outcomes hitting.
Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CZR#NASDAQ">CZR</a>) also had a bettor hit a 13-leg NFL parlay during Week 6. A bettor turned $10 into $48,447.95. Caesars <a href="https://x.com/CaesarsSports/status/1846214196754575400">shared </a>the winning bet on its X account. Highlighting huge parlay wins can be used as a marketing play for sportsbooks.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
In that 13-leg parlay, the bettor bet on the spread for 13 games without using any over/under plays.
Betting favorites went 12-2 on the moneyline and were 11-3 against the spread in Week 6, as reported by <a href="https://x.com/bookies/status/1846183018286719027">Bookies</a>. Through the first six weeks of the NFL season, favorites are 59-33 in games on the moneyline and 49-41-2 against the spread.
Bettors will now be tasked with predicting which trend will continue between underdogs covering the spread or the favorites covering the spread.

Bettor Turns $10 Into $131K Thanks To NFL Favorites Winning (And Scoring Lots Of Points) In Week 6

The outlook for growth in 2024 for casino companies could be one key area to watch in the gaming space along with a favorable backdrop for online sports betting companies, an analyst said.
What Happened: JMP Securities analyst Jordan Bender shared the takeaways from the Global Gaming Expo in a new note, with the summaries of thoughts on companies in the casino, gaming and sports betting sectors after meetings with executives.
"Despite the underperformance from brick-and-mortar casino companies, commentary around the outlook and prospects for growth in 2025 skewed more positive than we had expected," Bender said.
Among the top takeaways from the event and meetings for the analyst are softness for regional casinos, the 2024 election being a headwind for the fourth quarter, Las Vegas not falling apart and a favorable view on data suppliers.
The analyst's top pick is Flutter Entertainment (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLUT#NYSE">FLUT</a>), raising the price target from $255 to $287 and maintaining a Market Outperform rating.
"Flutter's 2027 guidance was well-received, and we believe estimates are going to prove conservative in the absence of tax changes, reiterating our top pick call on the company as it currently trades at 9x its 2027E EBITDA guidance."
While Flutter is the top pick, the analyst shared three more stocks favored in the sector.
"We also recommend shares of GENI, CHDN and CZR as our favorite ways to own the gaming space."
Here are the current ratings and price targets on those three stocks from Bender:
<ul>
<li>Genius Sports (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GENI#NYSE">GENI</a>): Market Outperform, $9 price target</li>
<li>Churchill Downs (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHDN#NASDAQ">CHDN</a>): Market Outperform, $166 price target</li>
<li>Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CZR#NASDAQ">CZR</a>): Market Outperform, $59 price target</li>
</ul>
The analyst maintained Market Outperform ratings on MGM Resorts International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) and Golden Entertainment (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GDEN#NASDAQ">GDEN</a>), but lowered the price targets with MGM from $57 to $56 and GDEN from $36 to $35.
Here's a look at the three stocks with new price targets and the other three top sector picks from the analyst.
Flutter Entertainment: Bender said feedback on Flutter continues to be positive with the key question now a matter of how big the total addressable market for online sports betting in the U.S. truly is.
"The $63bn TAM for the U.S. is not a 2030 estimate, rather a 10-year outlook for when the U.S. hits maturity," Bender said of Flutter's recent shared TAM figure.
The analyst said Flutter's free cash flow estimates for 2027 could be conservative.
"We believe the Flutter story continues to improve in the U.S. and rest of world as its scale will support outperformance in comparison to smaller companies in the space."
MGM Resorts International: The analyst said a declining supply of rooms in Las Vegas, new growth projects and a favorable convention backdrop for Las Vegas in 2025 is a positive for the company. 
With DraftKings and Flutter holding a dominant duopoly position for online sports betting, the analyst sees a race for third place and a "desire for a podium position" for several companies including BetMGM, which is a joint venture from MGM and Entain.
Golden Entertainment: Summer heat and seasonality have hurt foot traffic for companies with higher exposure to Las Vegas, like Golden Entertainment, the analyst said.
"The company confirmed the headwinds, mostly during July."
Bender said a meeting with company executives showed optimism that stability is nearing in the fourth quarter.
The company's CFO said investors are not valuing all Golden Entertainment's assets based on the share price, the analyst added. The potential for mergers and acquisitions or an outright sale of the company could be on the table based on the analyst's conversation with management.
Genius Sports: Alongside Sportradar Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRAD#NASDAQ">SRAD</a>), the analyst sees Genius Sports as part of a duopoly for the online sports data supplier market.
"Our conversations with management teams only solidified our positive view on the two companies as both continue to build moats via the portfolio of technology."
Bender said the confidence and tone stood out while talking to Genius Sports.
"The Genius story has remained largely unchanged over the past three years, with management firmly believing that successful execution would lead to increased revenue and profitability."
Bender said the company's NFL contract is profitable and its major league sports rights are secured for many years.
Caesars Entertainment: A meeting with Caesars management was positive, Bender said.
"The company appears on the forefront of several new projects opening/ramping in the coming months, providing a series of catalysts for a mixed regional gaming segment."
The analyst said New Orleans revenue is under pre-renovation levels, but could return to levels comparable to 2019 with recent upgrades.
Churchill Downs: A headwind of the company's Virginia project could soon be coming to an end, the analyst said.
"The timing of the opening is still somewhat uncertain, but we get the sense the property will open to a more graduated opening in the coming weeks."
For the company's Kentucky Derby asset, the analyst said ticket pricing sees an uplift and advertising partnerships could grow.
