At the heart of Schneiderman's argument is the idea that FanDuel and DraftKings are offering services that are basically illegal gambling. Both companies argue that daily fantasy is more of a game of skill. The New York attorney general also claims both have been employing deceptive advertising practices. A $600 deposit bonus advertised by DraftKings was actually only worth $24, Schneiderman said, with the full value unlocking when you spend at least $15,000.

This latest suit is just the latest bit of drama facing FanDuel and DraftKings in New York. Back in December Schneiderman was able to get both sites shut down for a few hours, until a judge overturned that decision. We don't know when they're actually going to trial in New York, but the companies will be speaking before an appellate panel on January 4 to see if they can keep operating for now.
