News::Twitch says 'CS:GO' gambling broadcasts are prohibited

The niche world of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive skin gambling is starting to crumble. Last week, two YouTube personalities were outed as the owners of CS:GO Lotto, a third-party gambling website that used CS:GO weapon skins as currency for online casino games. Yesterday, Valve announced the service was in violation of its terms and service agreement. Now, Twitch is chiming in, stating that any stream that violates a game's service agreement is prohibited from broadcasting -- specifically calling out gambling businesses that misuse Steam's OpenID API.
