PrizePicks has decided to stop its 'Pick'Em' games in New York because of new rules. Instead, they will offer free-entry contests and try to get a new license for exciting games.
The New York State Gaming Commission changed its rules, leading PrizePicks, a popular daily fantasy sports site, to announce that they will stop their 'Pick'Em' service in New York.
This decision comes after the New York Gaming Commission made new licensing rules. So, PrizePicks will pause its usual 'Pick'Em' games and focus on free-to-play options for people in New York.
Even with these changes, PrizePicks is hopeful and is trying to get a new license to bring back paid contests. They want to introduce new and exciting fantasy games with bigger prizes and more fun ways to play and win.
While PrizePicks figures out how to deal with the new rules, people in New York can still use their accounts, take out money, and join free-entry contests with cash prizes. This plan means that people's excitement for daily fantasy sports will continue in New York.
Another big daily fantasy sports site, Thrive Fantasy, will also stop operating in New York because of the rule changes.
PrizePicks has a history of being flexible and creative. Last fall, they launched a peer-to-peer game in some states after they had to stop their 'Pick'Em'-style games in Michigan. This shows how committed PrizePicks is to giving people fun and innovative gaming experiences while following the rules.
As PrizePicks starts this new phase in New York, fans of daily fantasy sports can look forward to new games and chances to win prizes soon. PrizePicks' dedication to adapting and doing well when things change shows how strong they are and how much they care about giving people great gaming experiences.
PrizePicks is always looking ahead in the world of daily fantasy sports. They want to keep the excitement of competition alive for their loyal fans in New York and everywhere else. As we watch PrizePicks deal with these new rules, one thing is clear: they will keep giving people fun and creative ways to play, making fans of daily fantasy sports excited about what's coming next.
