Scientific Games is now Sportech. They are the platform operator for 4NJbets, they are not the actual bet taker. New Jersey Account Wagering is. NJAW is a partnership of NJSEA and PennWood racing. (which is now more complicated then that because of the leases with MP and the Big M). Sportech, a non-NJ entity, is basically providing a service to NJAW, which is a NJ entity.
So my question is, is TVG replacing Sportech as the platform operator for NJAW or is it replacing NJAW was the ADW in NJ?
If TVG does become just the platform operator and not the ADW itself, NJAW will (or should) determine any fees and/or rewards, not TVG.
