Texas Stance Towards Gambling
Despite being home to dozens of sports teams, including successful college programs, state lawmakers refuse to embrace sports betting. As such, one should not expect to have in-state retail sportsbooks any time soon. There are no brick and mortar sportsbooks anywhere near Houston as a result.
Instead, for two decades now, Texans have relied on tried and true sports betting sites operating from and licensed outside the state.
Sites like BetOnline are available to those 18 years or older.
