Kentucky

Sports Betting in Kentucky is legal as of March 2023. However, it is not operational yet. Rep. Michael Meredith’s bill (HB 551), which passed the House and Senate in March, was signed by Governor Andy Beshear in early April 2023. HB 551 allows both online and retail betting (at racetracks).

Louisiana

There are currently eight Sportsbooks available in Louisiana. Sports betting has been available in Louisiana since January 2022 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Louisiana took its time adapting, with voters approving a ballot measure in 2020. Within the state, it is unique, in that parishes have to individually allow sports betting.

55 out of 64 parishes voted to legalize sports betting, with Caldwell, Catahoula, Franklin, Jackson, La Salle, Sabine, Union, West Carroll, and Winn as the sole holdouts.

That means you won’t be able to bet online in those parishes as sportsbooks will establish geofences. In that case, you must simply travel to a parish that does allow online sports betting to place your wagers.

Maine

The launch of sports betting in Maine is likely to be delayed until late 2023 or early next year.

Maryland

There are currently seven Sportsbooks available in Maryland. Sports betting has been available in Maryland since November 2022 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Montana

Montana sports betting has been legal since March 2020. However, the state has a relatively low profile in both online and retail sports betting due in part to its small population of roughly 1 million. Montana’s sports betting market is structured through the state lottery, with limited online options. Despite its unique approach, sports betting in Montana remains a low-key endeavor.

Nebraska

The launch of sports betting in Nebraska is likely to be delayed until at least 2024.

Nebraska sports bettors eagerly await the day that they can physically place a sports wager in the state. Following the legalization of sports betting in Nebraska, many residents believed it would be a short wait. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

Nevada

There are currently a whopping fourty-five Sportsbooks available in Nevada. Sports betting has been available in NV since as far back as 1949 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). That said, some of the bigger players like DraftKings and FanDuel are not operational in Nevada.

There is only one available online sportsbook, though retail (in-person) wagering is available at select tribal casinos throughout the state.

Pennsylvania

There are currently 13 mobile Sportsbooks available in Pennsylvania. Sports betting has been legal in Pennsylvania since 2019, and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). Retail sportsbooks are also at casinos and racetracks throughout the state.

Rhode Island

Rhode Island was one of the first states to legalize sports betting when the federal ban was lifted in 2018, and offers in-person and online betting. However, there are no household names when it comes to mobile apps to use for sports betting.

Wisconsin

You can bet on sports in Wisconsin, but only at properties owned by the Oneida Nation. This means that you can only bet in-person at the Oneida Casino complex, or via mobile in very specific locations throughout the Green Bay region. The Oneida Nation owns multiple truck stops and other properties throughout the region where their betting app is available for use.

The Potawatomi Casino in Milwaukee has a plan to open a retail in-person sportsbook in the near future.

Wyoming

There are currently four Sportsbooks available in Wyoming. Sports betting has been available in Wyoming since September 2021, and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Mobile and Online Betting is currently legal in 30 States.

When will Online Sports Betting be legal in each State?

Alabama

Recently, there have been attempts to legalize sports betting, but nothing has come to pass. Between 2019 and 2021, there were four bills brought to legalize sports betting but all four were unsuccessful.

The most recent attempt was in 2021, when the state considered legalizing online Alabama sportsbooks but decided not to vote on SB 319. 

Alabama has always had a strict stance on any type of gambling, especially sports. They have no state lottery, no horse racing tracks, and only one Native American tribe (Poarch Band of Creek) with permission to own and operate casinos within state lines.

Alaska

Not only is sports betting prohibited in Alaska, but gambling, in general, is highly restricted. Bettors looking for action are limited to the likes of bingo, daily fantasy sports, and, occasionally, dogsled racing.

Since the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) was struck down in 2018, state lawmakers have made few serious attempts to legalize sports betting.

As of April 2023, state-regulated Alaska sports betting has not been authorized by lawmakers. Since the state does not currently have any pending legislation to legalize sports betting, residents are left without a domestic option for betting on any kind of sports event for the foreseeable future.

Arizona

LEGAL NOW. There are currently seventeen Sportsbooks available in Arizona. Sports betting has been available in Arizona since May 2022 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Arkansas

There are currently only three Sportsbooks available in Arkansas. Sports betting has been available in Arkansas since March 2022 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

California

Sports betting will likely not appear on the ballot again until at least 2024 after voters rejected the two sports betting initiatives, Prop 26 and Prop 27, during the November 8, 2022 elections.

Proposition 26 would have allowed retail sports betting at 66 tribal casinos and Santa Anita Park, Del Mar Race Track, Los Alamitos Race Course, and Golden Gate Fields. It would have hardened the power of tribes over gaming in the state. Under this initiative’s terms, online sports betting would not be allowed, dealing a blow to major sportsbook brands like DraftKings and FanDuel.

Proposition 27 would have allowed private sportsbook operators to partner with a California tribe to offer mobile sports betting. California bettors would be able to download sportsbook apps and bet from home.

Colorado

LEGAL NOW. There are currently twenty Sportsbooks available in Colorado. Sports betting has been available in Colorado since May 2020 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Connecticut

LEGAL NOW. There are currently two Sportsbooks available in Connecticut. Sports betting has been available in Connecticut since October 2021 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Prior to April 2023, there was also SugarHouse. However, as of now, they have currently shut down all operations in the state. As a result, only DraftKings and FanDuel Sportsbooks remain.

Delaware

As of April 2023, no online Sportsbooks are available in Delaware. It was the first state to legalize sports betting after PASPA was overturned in 2018. As a result, Delaware now boasts a small but successful retail sports betting industry. There are three physical locations in the state where bettors can place their wagers. However, nothing online.

Hopefully, the absence of online sportsbooks changes soon. According to ESPN gambling industry writer David Purdum, “Delaware is falling behind. It’s just too easy. It’s almost easier to hop in your car and drive across the state line and place a bet on your phone than it is to drive down to one of the race tracks to do it in person. And that’s the preferred method for the majority of American sports betters.” Delaware saw a 7% drop in its sports wagering revenue in fiscal year 2022.

Meanwhile, surrounding states are seeing a boom in sports betting, which Purdum said is driven by the popularity of online betting. Maryland reports more than $470 million in wagering was done through online betting apps alone in December 2022 – its first full month of mobile betting. Purdum said Delaware could play catch up and allow online betting, but it would require significant investment and approval by the state lottery.

Florida

Following the federal ban called PASPA’s overturn in 2018 by the United States Supreme Court, several states had the opportunity to legalize and regulate sports betting at their discretion, except Florida. Florida sports betting is still at a standstill. This is partially due to ongoing legal proceedings that paused all sports betting shortly after it launched in November 2021.

Mobile sports betting was successfully launched through a compact between the state and the Seminole Tribe. However, the Tribe later claimed that the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act had been violated. Both sides of the issue argued their stances in court in December 2022. Nevertheless, we won’t get an idea of when a ruling will be handed down until the 2023 legislative session finalizes. There are millions of dollars bet on sports events every year in Florida through offshore books. Nevertheless, these bookmakers are unregulated and operate in legal grey areas.

Though there may be various hurdles to legalizing sports betting legislation in Florida, for example, amending the state constitution with a 60% majority vote to legalize sports betting requires lawmaking, and legislators must agree to create regulations on operators and revenue sharing per game. Moreover, Florida needs to cooperate with sports organizations to maintain fairness during games, complicating the process further.

Georgia

It’s still anyone’s guess if or when in-state sports betting could be legalized. After a few years of deliberation and little movement, Georgia swiftly put legal sports betting on the radar in 2021. After failing to gain traction in the 2022 and 2023 legislative sessions, state lawmakers will have to revisit legalizing mobile wagering in 2024.

There was hope at the start of 2023 when a group of senators began proposing new bills that would legalize sports betting in Georgia. However, multiple pieces of legislation were voted down in March and brought the process back to square one. There are reports that some of the legislators haven’t given up the fight to legalize Georgia mobile sports betting in 2023. However, there is no available timeline for when new legislation on Georgia sports betting sites will be proposed. For now, it is just a waiting game.

Hawaii

Hawaii is one of only two states, along with Utah, with no legal gambling of any kind. However, there have been a couple of faint initiatives over the last year or so. It goes without saying that the state could be a very lucrative market for the betting industry. Below are the most recent updates on efforts to legalize sports betting in the state:

Jan. 31, 2023:  Hawaii state Senator Standley Chang proposes a ban on advertising (SB 935) — on television or online — by Nevada casino companies, citing the economic burden of problem gambling.

Jan. 9, 2023: A bill was proposed by Democrat John Mizuno for a single, standalone sportsbook and cardroom. The location would be licensed for 10 years on the island of Oahu. With Hawaii residents spending so much money in Las Vegas every year, Mizuno believes it’s important to explore options to keep local money in the economy. 

Idaho

Idaho has resisted any efforts to legalize sports betting. It is one of a dwindling band of outliers that have never come close to passing a sports wagering bill since 2018. The only other holdovers are Utah, Hawaii, Alaska, Texas, and North Dakota.

Illinois

LEGAL NOW. There are currently seven Sportsbooks available in Illinois. Sports betting has been available in Illinois since March 2020 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Indiana

Kansas

Kentucky

Minnesota

Odds improved ever so slightly on May 3, 2023 for Minnesota’s prospects for joining neighboring states in legalizing sports gambling.

Sen. Matt Klein, DFL-Mendota Heights, offered an amendment to his legalization bill that would aid the state’s two horse-racing tracks, which were left out of the initial bill. Klein called the amendment a “best faith effort to accommodate horse tracks.”

Under his plan, sports gambling would be taxed at 10% with 30% of that going to an economic development fund for the tracks capped at $20 million. After that initial infusion, the two tracks would split $3 million annually.

Klein was resolutely upbeat despite the Legislature’s impending adjournment May 22. “If people are motivated to get something done, they will,” he said.

As he has said before, the senator said Minnesotans want sports gambling and the Legislature’s job is to provide guardrails to make it safer. Klein’s amendment would allow only the state’s 11 tribes to obtain sports betting licenses. The tribes already have exclusive rights to casino gambling.

Klein and Rep. Zack Stephenson, DFL-Coon Rapids, introduced a bill in late February. Back then, the two lawmakers were optimistic, but Republicans didn’t like the bill without money for tracks, and the proposal languished. They’re still not warm to it.

“There’s not going to be an agreement on this unless the tracks, the teams, and the tribes are at the table and negotiate a compromise,” said Rep. Pat Garofalo, R-Farmington.

It’s the second year in a row where legal sports betting appeared to have good odds of making it to the governor’s desk, but disagreements over whether Minnesota’s two horse racing tracks should be in on the action have thrown a wrench into the process.

With support from six professional sports teams and the tribal gaming association, backers of legal sports betting in Minnesota had reason to be optimistic at the start of this legislative session. Hopefully, some progress can be made in 2023.

Mississippi

There are currently zero online Sportsbooks available in Mississippi. Sports betting has been available in Mississippi since August 2018 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). However, it is limited to 30 brick-and-mortar locations at casinos.

The first pair of sportsbooks began taking wagers in August 2018, and there are now 23 properties that offer sports betting. 

However, online sports betting is still heavily restricted. Currently, it is limited to only taking place on casino grounds using a mobile app version of the respective casino’s retail sportsbook. 

After only focusing on retail-only sports betting, Mississippi is starting to make the first tentative steps into online gambling. 

Although there have been no bills that have made it out of committee, sportsbooks are beginning to offer access to their online betting apps while on casino grounds. Currently, this is being led by BetMGM, who will give players access when they are at either the Beau Rivage or Gold Stroke Casinos. There is no timetable for when online sports betting will expand.

Missouri

There were efforts to bring sports betting to Missouri during the 2023 legislative session. Two new house bills, HB581 and HB556, were filed to kick off the session. Much like in 2022, there were multiple bills brought forward in 2023 as legalization has the backing of some prominent industry players in the state. With three weeks left in the State Legislature, it does not appear particularly likely that a legal sports betting bill will pass this year.

The 2023 NFL Draft, held in Kansas City, came and went without legal sports betting in Missouri. Hopefully, things can turn around for sports betting in the state in 2024. In the meantime, residents will have to travel to Illinois, Kansas and other surrounding states in order to place bets.

Montana

Montana sports betting has been legal since March 2020. However, the state has a relatively low profile in both online and retail sports betting due in part to its small population of roughly 1 million. Montana’s sports betting market is structured through the state lottery, with limited online options. Despite its unique approach, sports betting in Montana remains a low-key endeavor.

Nebraska

LEGAL NOW. However, the launch of sports betting in Nebraska is likely to be delayed until at least 2024.

Nebraska sports bettors eagerly await the day that they can physically place a sports wager in the state. Following the legalization of sports betting in Nebraska, many residents believed it would be a short wait. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

Nevada

LEGAL NOW. There are currently a whopping fourty-five Sportsbooks available in Nevada. Sports betting has been available in NV since as far back as 1949 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). That said, some of the bigger players like DraftKings and FanDuel are not operational in Nevada.

New Hampshire

LEGAL NOW. There are currently only one Sportsbook available in NH “DraftKings”. Sports betting has been available in NH since December 2019 and you must be 18+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

New Jersey

LEGAL NOW. There are currently nineteen Sportsbooks available in New Jersey. Sports betting has been available in NJ since June 2018 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

New Mexico

While the state could legalize sports betting unilaterally and potentially lose out on revenue sharing from tribal casinos, the road to legalized sports betting across the state would mean navigating a number of barriers, including the re-negotiating of tribal gaming compacts – last updated in 2015 – and new and approved legislation that benefits all sides.

“I think there’s the political will to amend the gating humpbacks to allow sports betting simply because they weren’t contemplated when the latest compacts were negotiated,” said Sen. Antonio “Moe” Maestas, D-Albuquerque.

However, legalizing online sports betting is complicated. Negotiations with tribes on gaming compacts would likely need to happen before any legislation or go-ahead is approved, Maestas said. If the state were to legalize online sports betting without negotiations, it could affect revenue sharing that the state gets from tribal casinos.

Hopefully, online betting in NM can gain traction in 2024.

New York

LEGAL NOW. There are currently eight Sportsbooks available in New York. Sports betting has been available in New York since January 2022 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

North Carolina

IN 2023, HB 347 finally passed, legalizing online sports betting.

Although retail North Carolina sports betting was legalized in July 2019, it wasn’t until March 18, 2021, that the state took its first legal wager. Furthermore, it was limited to a couple of Native American retail locations.

However, with NC legalizing online sports betting in 2023, bettors could be locking in picks from anywhere in the Tar Heel State by January 2024. At a minimum, it is widely expected that online betting will go live sometime in 2024.

North Dakota

Two bills were introduced to the ND legislature in 2019. This included one which would allow complete legalized online sports betting and one just for retail betting. But both failed to gain any traction, with HB1254 passing through the House, but failing in a landslide 38-7 vote in the Senate.

Then as retail betting gained subsequent traction, North Dakota officially legalized sports betting at the beginning of December, 2021.

Sports betting can legally only take place in tribal casinos in the state. There are currently three tribal casinos that are owned and operated by the Dakota Nation Gaming Enterprise. Currently, in-person retail sports betting is all that is allowed. The laws that legalized sports betting did not address mobile betting.

A house resolution was introduced in 2023, although it failed.

HCR 3002 would have required the legislative assembly to authorize sports betting in the state. It would also be licensed and regulated by the state. It also said betting would only be allowed on professional sports.

“We have seen few, if any, betting scandals surrounding college sports teams in states where sports betting is taking place,” said Representative Greg Stemen. “Because of legal and legitimate sports gaming companies, there are more built-in protections to prevent those things from happening than ever before.”

Representative Stemen said if sports betting were to be permitted in North Dakota, it would offer better consumer protection. However, some people feel that completely legalizing sports betting may not only harm the person but also eat away at the common good.

“Sports gambling, especially facilitated by commercial operators, not only diminishes the sport, it disrespects the dignity and comes very close to exploiting the human person, the athlete,” said North Dakota Catholic Conference Executive Director, Christopher Dodson.

We will see what happens in 2024.

Ohio

LEGAL NOW. There are currently eighteen Sportsbooks available in Ohio. Sports betting has been available in Ohio since January 2023 and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation).

Oklahoma

Despite Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt’s desire for sports betting, the issue will fall short again in 2023.

Oklahoma sports betting bill, HB 1027, failed to clear a Senate committee before a deadline last week. Rep. Ken Luttrell told KOCO-TV the chamber wanted to see more conversations between Stitt and Oklahoma’s gaming tribes.

An industry source called the bill “a placeholder at best” in March. 

According to local media reports and LSR sources, not all tribes are on the same page. The differences were enough to keep any deal from crossing the finish line. Stitt also likely wanted to include the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder, a potential dealbreaker for at least some of the tribes.

Additionally, Senate leadership did not consider sports betting a priority.

“Like everything, I want to approach it in a methodical manner, but my position has not changed: I’m not interested in moving that by itself,” Senate President Pro Temper Greg Treat told The Frontier in February. “I think it needs to be handled in a way that’s respectful of our tribal nations. It needs to be above board and something that is a win-win for the state of Oklahoma and our 39 tribes.”

If similar legislation passes in the future, it will allow for in-person and online sports betting for Oklahoma’s gaming tribes, which hold gaming exclusivity in the state.

Oregon

LEGAL NOW. Sports betting has been legal in Oregon since August 2019, and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). There is only one available online sportsbook, though retail (in-person) wagering is available at select tribal casinos throughout the state.

Pennsylvania

LEGAL NOW. There are currently 13 mobile Sportsbooks available in Pennsylvania. Sports betting has been legal in Pennsylvania since 2019, and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). Retail sportsbooks are also at casinos and racetracks throughout the state.

Rhode Island

LEGAL NOW. Rhode Island was one of the first states to legalize sports betting when the federal ban was lifted in 2018, and offers in-person and online betting. However, there are no household names when it comes to mobile apps to use for sports betting.

South Carolina

No sports betting is legal currently in South Carolina. Bills have been proposed in four separate years and have not passed, with the most current being HB 3749 which is still a long shot for being passed.

We will have to wait for 2024 and beyond.

South Dakota

While online wagering is not legal in South Dakota, there are several retail, in-person sportsbooks available in Deadwood, as well as any of the state’s tribal casinos. There is a sportsbook app, but you must be located on-site at a casino to use them. That said, there has been no traction for online betting as of 2023.

Tennessee

LEGAL NOW. There are currently 11 mobile Sportsbooks available in Tennessee. Sports betting has been legal in Tennessee since November 2020, and you must be 21+ years of age and physically in the state (verifiable by your mobile device’s geolocation). There are no in-person retail sportsbooks in Tennessee.

Texas

In April 2023, HB1942 was sent to the House Committee, which pushes the bill to be fully considered by the House. Additionally, sports teams throughout the state of Texas pushed for sports betting to be legalized in Texas. However, it was ultimately not legalized before the end of May 2023. Now, it will be at least two more years before it is even considered again.

Utah

Utah is vehemently opposed to betting or gambling of any sort, and it may never be legal in the state. Utah’s code states that even if sports betting is federally legalized, they will keep it illegal in the state.

Vermont

Sports betting is not currently legal in the state of Vermont. There have been attempts to pass legislation to legalize sports betting, but there has been very little support for the bills to pass. We will see what happens in 2024.

Virginia
