Sportradar predicts boost for sports betting in USA
Reading Time: 1 minute
Sportradar, the sports betting data provider , forecasts a bright future for sports betting in the USA. Its study predicts that 12 more US states could be legalising sports betting in 2019. It also suggests that eighth states will have operational sports books ready by the beginning of the 2019 football season.
In a post-conference interview Williams told Reuters that sports fans can now wager legally on sporting events in New Jersey, West Virginia and Mississippi, Nevada and Delaware. He said that Pennsylvania and Rhode Island are expected to roll out live betting soon, and one tribal casino in New Mexico has begun operating a sportsbook without the need for state legislation.
States that could finalise sports betting legislation in 2019 are Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, New York, Ohio and Oregon.
Michigan lawmaker and chair of the Regulatory Reform Committee, Rep. Brandt Iden told the conference that he is optimistic about a mobile gambling bill in the state House which should soon pass after over a year of consideration, perhaps by the end of 2018, allowing the state to enter the regulated and licensed sports betting sector both online and retail next year.
