In today’s episode of iGaming Daily, host and SBC Media Manager Charlie Horner is joined by SBC Editor-at-Large Ted Menmuir alongside a special guest, Tamsin Blow, Partner in the Litigation and Arbitration Group at CMS and a member of the International Masters of Gaming Law (IMGL), to break down the landmark Betfair Court of Appeal ruling and what it means for duty of care, player protection, and the future legal responsibilities of UK gambling operators.

Tune in to today’s episode to find out:

• Why the UK Court of Appeal rejected the argument that operators owe a common-law duty of care to gambling customers
• How negligence, breach of statutory duty, and breach of contract were assessed in the Gibson vs Betfair claim
• Where the legal boundary now sits between LCCP regulatory obligations and civil liability
• Whether failures in safer gambling practices could ever lead to compensation claims in future cases
• What this ruling means for both operator compliance strategies and consumer responsibility going forward
