A class action lawsuit has been filed against a company accused of operating an illegal online gambling platform under the guise of a "free" social casino. The complaint targets AI Development, LLC, which operates under the name No Limit Coins.

The lawsuit alleges that No Limit Coins presents itself as a social casino but functions as an unlicensed gambling site in violation of New York law. Users can purchase virtual currency to play traditional casino games like slots and jackpots on No Limit Coins' website. These virtual currencies include Gold Coins for free play and Super Coins that can be redeemed for cash or prizes. The plaintiff claims this setup misleads consumers into believing they are engaging in risk-free entertainment when they are actually participating in unlawful gambling activities.

The plaintiff argues that No Limit Coins exploits its users by bundling Gold Coins with Super Coins, disguising real-money gambling as a free-to-play experience. The lawsuit highlights that players often purchase additional coin bundles when they run out of Super Coins, even if they have unused Gold Coins. The complaint states that New York law prohibits such online gambling operations unless conducted by licensed operators in physical locations.

The plaintiff is seeking damages, restitution, and injunctive relief to halt what she describes as deceptive practices by AI Development LLC. She alleges the company violates several New York laws designed to protect consumers from illegal gambling and misleading advertising, including the New York Loss Recovery Act and New York General Business Law sections 349 and 350.

The case was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York under Case ID 1:25-cv-06061.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
