Anyone in Texas betting on sports?

I understand not wanting to bring full blown casinos to your state if it will drain from the local economy, but online sports betting being illegal is bs.
If Texas ever wants to host another major sporting event, they need to wake up.
What platform do you go through and how?

Agreed. Texas blew it by not legalizing sport betting. Hard Rock resort is now moving to Oklahoma side of the lake instead of building in DFW like previously planned. Upside is the plans for the lakefront resort look amazing.

Yeah you have to use one of the offshore sites. It’s kinda dumb.

Lobbyists in Louisiana and Oklahoma are deep in Texas political pockets. Blatantly obvious.
We allow them to come gamble in exchange for their elite HS recruits. True for LSU and OU

I’m sure Texas is dying to be more like Louisiana

In this regard, yes we certainly are dying to be more like Louisiana.

What is their withdrawal policy? Most overseas sites have a minimum 30 days which I don’t want to deal with.

Like the final four last year or football national championship this year?

And the World Cup Final, only a billion eyes will watch DFW that day.

Yes. Just like hosting a Super Bowl. Your city and facilities have to meet a lot of requirements. Many use it as an excuse for upgrades. Most of Houston’s downtown and surrounding areas growth was based on hosting SuperBowls. The bs metro rail was one of them.
Eventually sports gambling needs to be available for any big venue or the powers that be aren’t going to bring it there.

True but we lose a lot of state and city revenue by our people going 2 hrs to LC

I’m game betting is no different than Wi-Fi availability. It’s a demand for hosting most major events.

Isn’t that what Cuban sold the Mavericks for? To focus on bringing online betting to Texas?
Posted on 1/27/24 at 7:13 pm to BabyTac
What kind of Puritanical bullshite is preventing sports betting from being legal in all 50 states?

lol. I guess I can see why some Louisiana natives might think this way so I don't want to be mean.
Bovada has matchpay which has never failed me for quick withdrawal if you're looking for an offshore book
