New Jersey took on the federal government for the right to offer legal sports betting within its borders and won.

The biggest challenge in the Garden State for its Atlantic City casinos and various race tracks for horse racing is to get their sportsbook up and running for the start of the 2018 football season in early September. Monmouth Park was the first real money gambling venue to accomplish this goal with the recent opening of its sportsbook while rest of the licensed facilities in the state find their online sportsbooks in various stages of completion.
While the Hard Rock’s casino opened for business on the AC Boardwalk at the end of June, days later it was also open for business online with technology provider GAN. The DGE is expected to authorize online sports betting later this month according to PlaySlots4RealMoney.com. Bet365 is just one a handful of British online sportsbooks looking to enter the US market. William Hill partnered with Monmouth Park to blaze the trail and Paddy Power Betfair is working with Meadowlands Racetrack to get its sportsbook up and running.
