Nevada Sportsbooks Could Soon Take Bets From All 50 States
Proposed legislation in the Silver State seeks to allow those living in other states to open real money wagering accounts with legalized Nevada-based sportsbooks using smart phone apps. The measure could be considered as early as this year (2016).
Of course some states like Utah that do not allow any form of gambling might frown upon this.
Furthermore, one would have to physically sign up inside one of the Nevada sportsbooks and fill out an application in order to actually open an online betting account.
From Investors.com:
Quinton Singleton, vice president and deputy general counsel at gaming technology company CG Technology, in February submitted a proposal to the Nevada Gaming Commission to amend the state’s gambling regulations to allow betters in all 50 states to set up and fund mobile sports-betting apps. CG Technology’s products include Alphabet (GOOGL)-owned Google Android- and Apple (AAPL)-compatible smartphone apps. It’s not clear when the gaming commission will take up the proposal.
