Nevada Ends Ties with National Problem Gambling Group Over Kalshi Controversy
The Nevada Council on Problem Gambling has ended its affiliation with the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) due to the NCPG's partnership with Kalshi. Kalshi donated $2 million to the NCPG in May. The Nevada Council on Problem Gambling is ending its association with the national group after Kalshi was ordered to cease operating in the state as part of ongoing litigation with the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
The Nevada Gaming Control Board has filed a federal lawsuit against Kalshi. The Michigan Gaming Control Board withdrew support for the NCPG in July. The Evergreen Council in Washington has also expressed concerns about the prediction market partnership.
The American Gaming Association reported in May that total revenue from commercial sports betting operations reached $16.89 billion in 2025, a 22.7% increase from 2024.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
