CoD pro faces potential suspension after admitting to betting on CWL matches MLGA member of Midnight Gaming\u2019s Black Ops 4 squad could be in hot water, after admitting to gambling on multiple CWL matches, despite being explicitly against league rules. Midnight Gaming has been one of the most intriguing stories in the CWL\u2019s 2019 season, following previous controversy about failure to pay player salaries and accusations of blackmailing their team, and now a player on the roster could be facing potential penalty. A since deleted Tweet from Midnight\u2019s substitute player Aidan \u2018GorgoKnight\u2019 Provenzano shows that he had recently reaped a handsome gain from headline matches featuring some of the biggest names in the CWL. Replying to an exchange with Evil Geniuses Jordan \u2018JKap\u2019 Kaplan, GorgoKnight had revealed a few wagers that had panned out for him likely in the aftermath of the May 13 CWL game between OpTic Gaming and Gen.G as well as the May 14 game with Evil Geniuses versus UYU. \u201cI bet the spread on the series with GenG\/OpTic and you (Jkap\u2019s new team EG) and UYU as long as it went 3-2 3-1,\u201d GorgoKnight said. \u201cI was not down 1K and up 5 cheers brotha, drinks on me at Anaheim.\u201d The tweet confused some CWL fans as to why the pro player would openly admit betting on the matches. In replying to BeZo, who had surmised the bets were against CWL rules, GorgoKnight said \u201csue me.\u201d 600 600What are the rules on players betting on CWL matches? The introduction for the Official CWL Handbook lists all \u201cteams, team owners, team managers, team coaches and players\u201d as league participants, and as a substitute for Midnight, Provenzano would fall under this category. Section 3 of the 2019 CWL Handbook states \u201cPlayer Eligibility\u201d as \u201cany person who is registered to compete for a Team during the competition, including both those on the active roster and the designated substitute.\u201d Section 6.2 under \u201cBetting and Gambling\u201d says that league \u201cparticipants are not allowed to place, or attempt to place, bets on any games or matches or in any other way associated with the CWL.\u201d 700The penalty for \u201cBetting or Gambling on CWL Competitions\u201d carries a minimum penalty of a $1,000 fine and\/or a Suspension. The maximum penalty for first and second offenders comes with an indefinite suspension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
