RE: Sports Gambling may soon be legal (outside of Nevada)
Atlantic City is a ghost town with lots of casinos but they never passed line betting. They had all the infrastructure in place but it died on the vine when the people wouldn't pass the bill.

This might be the push that puts them over.
They're trying to put it in Kings mountain, NC actually. It would need approval from the department of Indian affairs since this is not currently tribal land, though it does fall in their historical range. They have an agreement with SC that they would not operate a casino from the Catawba reservation.
If approved, it would be devastating for the Cherokee casino. They'll spend millions to keep it from happening.

Texas money is one of the biggest reason why Oklahoma and Louisiana have nice casinos. Golden Nugget in Lake Charles is owned by a Texan in Houston.

I see what you're saying, for the serious sports bettor perspective I agree.
But for the occasion sports bettor no need to go to all the trouble to deal with a bookie when you can go in straight into a sports book and place a bet; or even online where states allow it.
BTW Do you pay your bookie with Bitcoin?? You would be completely off the gird Stink

I guess, South Florida is a much more liberal place than the rest of the state, which is more highly represented in the Florida legislature.
Heard on radio Florida might be last state to pass this law due to the strong presence of Disney who is against betting...
Disney's afraid even more of the tourism money will go to Miami if this law passes. As far as I am concerned, I would not miss Disney if it were to just disappear one day.

It's kind of like saying nobody will buy weed from a licensed store in Colorado because they prefer their shady dealer down the alley. Yes, yes they will. Licensing will limit profit via smaller, standard, controlled vigs. Penalties for running books will increase as they will be in direct competition with a state money maker. No chance of being ripped off or welched on by an unfamiliar bookie.
East coast people can't always just go to Vegas to do it legally, but they can go to WV. And the loss of clientele will make the risk of doing it illegally for much less money less enticing for existing bookies.

no sir....my guy drives to me 150 miles round trip once a month if the balance is >500 ska-bangs either way.....
and my guy has a partner that simply developed a site with a database 'warehouse' that taps into everything you can imaging including my fave, "live-in" betting....
to the bitcoin question , I almost bought 100 bucks worth ~15 years ago on a whim.....oh how I punch myself in the nuts every day for not pulling that silly trigger....

I do understand. What I'm saying is that opportunity may no longer be there if the guys close up shop due to others going legit. There will be people who go to licensed venues for their betting, online or in person. That will affect the bookies that had their previous business.
