What we’re watching
Week of June 18-25, 2018
As New Jersey and Delaware went live with legal sports betting in recent weeks, we’re watching what one of the biggest states will do when it comes to sports betting.
New York already has a sports betting law on the books, but it only allows wagering at the state’s commercial casinos. A new bill would allow it at more facilities, in addition to mobile wagering. The latest here; the legislature is supposed to wrap up on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, New Jersey took its first sports bet last week, and this whole thing is getting to be old hat (we kid) in Delaware. And Rhode Island looks like it will pass sports betting legislation too, on top of that.
For a rundown of all the recent news from the past week, go here.
As always, watch us on Twitter for new developments.

LSR: Focus Areas
LegalSportsReport covers a variety of topics that intersect with online sports betting. But we focus on a few primary areas of coverage, areas that make up the bulk of the content on LSR.
Daily Fantasy Sports
LegalSportsReport began as a site aimed at analyzing the daily fantasy sports industry in the United States, and that's where much of our focus remains today. We are especially interested in the legal and legislative conversations surrounding DFS, and also in the underlying economics of the daily fantasy sports industry. Additionally, we cover general industry developments, including product innovations, marketing trends, and related topics.
Regulated / Legal U.S. Sports Betting
Closely connected to the issue of daily fantasy sports is the issue of regulated sports betting in the United States. On May 14, 2018, the US Supreme Court struck down the 1992 law (PASPA) that made sports betting illegal everywhere except Nevada. This means that sports betting is now in the hands of states to regulate and/or prohibit. The topic of legal sports betting is arising in more and more states, developments that we'll be watching closely as they unfold over the coming months.
The Global Sports Betting Market
In many ways, the global sports online betting market, led by operators like bet365, provides a template for the market that is likely to eventually evolve for sports betting in the United States. And many of the companies that dominate the international sports betting market - such as William Hill - are poised to become key players in the US sports betting market should the market become legal and regulated.
