Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia has recently faced significant scrutiny and consequent penalties from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB). This comes after the casino’s involvement in proxy betting violations, where employees accepted and placed bets on behalf of a customer who was not physically present. The fines, amounting to $100,000, were levied against Stadium Casino RE, LLC, the operator of Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia. The issue was brought to light through a consent agreement accepted by the PGCB’s Office of Enforcement Counsel during a public meeting.
The violations were specifically related to 15 proxy bets totaling $287,421, conducted over an eight-day period via phone calls. This action is strictly prohibited by both the casino’s internal policies and Pennsylvania state regulations. The state’s Gaming Act unequivocally bars the acceptance of bets from individuals who are not personally making them.

As a result of this breach, three sportsbook staff members involved were terminated, and their licenses to work in Pennsylvania casinos were revoked. The gambler in question was added to the involuntary exclusion list and is now banned from gambling anywhere within the state.
