TVG also has restrictions for those betting from Illionis.  Remember, BetUS does NOT report your winnings.

The state of Illinois collects a 0.38% surcharge on winnings wagers. This is charged on the "Raw Price," which is the "raw" split of the pool, rounded to an appropriate amount. The amount the state takes is rounded up, so if the "raw price" of the Win pool is $5.50, you would receive $5.30 or $5.35.

As of July 9th, 2017 the Illinois personal income tax rate is 4.95%. Any wager placed at TVG which results in proceeds of more than $5,000.00, is subject to reporting and withholding if the amount of such proceeds is at least 300 times as large as the amount wagered. 

Horse Racing and Greyhound Racing from Great Britain and Ireland are currently unavailable on the TVG website for Illinois customers due to issues beyond our control.  BetUS does offer races for Illionis gamblers from these regions.

BetUS available from all US states.
