Episode 256: The state of U.S. sports betting legalization with Daniel Wallach

The Sharp 600 podcast welcomes gaming law expert and Wallach Legal founder Daniel Wallach to talk about the current state of sports betting legalization.

 

Monday’s news that California’s legislation to legalize sports betting had been pulled was a huge setback. How does this affect other states and the future of sports betting?
 
  Daniel and host Rob Cressy discuss:
 

·         The impact of COVID-19 on lost state revenue and potential legislation

·         The future of legal sports betting in Florida

·         Sports betting as a game of skill vs. chance

·         Mobile betting as a key component to legalization

·         The dated nature of in-person acquisition for casinos and sportsbooks

·         The latest developments in California’s legalization process 

·         Which states are likely to introduce legalization sooner than later?
