Trainwreck calls out \u201ccorrupt\u201d Twitch after gambling ban Popular streamer Trainwreck has called out Twitch as \u201ccorrupt\u201d after they announced that the ban on gambling wouldn\u2019t affect sports betting. Over the last few months, Trainwreck has been under scrutiny for his gambling streams. Just hours after Sliker apologized for \u201cscamming\u201d fans out of hundreds of thousands of dollars to fund his gambling habit, streamers began calling for a ban on the form of entertainment. Trainwreck hit back at those streamers, claiming that Twitch needs to ban individual creators instead. However, Twitch revealed on September 20 that they will be issuing a policy change around gambling. Train took to Twitter the next day, calling the platform \u201ccorrupt\u201d for not including sports betting in their policy announcement just days after Amazon signed a partnership with popular sports betting app DraftKings. Train calls out \u201ccorrupt\u201d Twitch after gambling ban On September 21, Trainwreck posted a series of tweets about the recent ban. \u201cThe inconsistency to not ban sports betting is corruption considering the fact you have your hands in the $13B NFL deal cookie jar,\u201d he said. \u201c[and] The fact you virtue signaling streamers act like you care about \u201cgambling\u201d are silent when it\u2019s 100x the market & more prevalent are just as corrupt.\u201d In a reply to another user, Train elaborated on his thoughts. He explained: \u201cbanning other forms of gambling while keeping the most prevalent form of it that gets them paid is a f**king joke and a mistake, instead, they should\u2019ve banned the people who do it wrong & in a predatory, non-transparent fashion.\u201d banning other forms of gambling while keeping the most prevalent form of it that gets them paid is a fucking joke and a mistake, instead, they should\u2019ve banned the people who do it wrong & in a predatory, non-transparent fashion \u2014 Trainwreck (@Trainwreckstv) September 21, 2022 In a third tweet, Train went on to call other streamers \u201cf*cking hypocrites.\u201d It was announced on September 13, just days before the gambling ban, that Amazon partnered up with DraftKings as a \u201csponsor and exclusive pregame odds provider\u201d for Thursday Night Football on Prime Video. In the announcement, it was revealed that TNF will contain DraftKings integrations during the pregame, including \u201codds and additional sports betting insights.\u201d While that partnership isn\u2019t directly integrated with Twitch, Amazon has owned the platform since 2014.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
