GGB PODCAST: David Rebuck, Former Director, New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement

David Rebuck (l.), who announced his retirement last week after 13 years as director of the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement (NJDGE), served longer than any other director. In this GGB Podcast, he recalls the hot-button issues he’s had to deal with during his time at the NJDGE.

David Rebuck recently retired after 13 years as head of the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, the longest reign in the history of the agency. During his time, the NJDGE set regulations after the legalization of iGaming, helped New Jersey become the first state to operate sports betting outside of Nevada, oversaw the closing of four Atlantic City casinos in one year, endured the pandemic, and much more. Rebuck recalls all those issues in a podcast with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at the NJDGE offices in Atlantic City in December.
