Gorodetsky is accused in a $9.6 million fraud scheme and is facing up to 20 years behind bars.
In December 2017, Gorodetsky was profiled in a USA Today piece titled, "Is this the future face of sports gambling?"
That piece discussed how he had reportedly wagered "well over $1 million" on various sporting events that year, as well as thousands in blackjack and roulette. Gorodetsky also shared what he claimed to be a financial statement from bookmaker William Hill showing wagers that totalled $26 million in 2017.
But federal prosecutors Wednesday alleged that "Big Rob" Gorodetsky defrauded an individual, "Investor A," out of the nearly $10 million after lying about how he would use the money that person invested as well as the actual returns on the cash. Records show he defrauded "Investor A" between 2014 to 2018, according to Chicago's WBBM-TV.
