Connecticut would likely offer sports betting exclusively at one of its two tribal casinos but state legislators are also looking into expanding gambling in the state to other properties.  Online wagering will also be considered.

The hearing concluded with an elderly woman testifying that she had contemplated suicide on three different occasions due to her compulsive gambling she said led to theft.
