I don't see why not allow the casinos to add sports wagering..

[msstate7]

Choctaw casinos in Philly should be all over this

I believe Tunica already started preparing for this last year. I have moved away, but that's what I heard through he grapevine. Hoping it's in place before I get back for the summer. I need some futures for the dawgs.

From last summer... https://mississippitoday.org/2017/07/11/casino-sports-gambling-ready-to-go-in-miss-if-u-s-supreme-court-gives-ok/

[Jack Lambert]

Mississippi has already approved sports betting. They are just waiting on the Supreme Court to rule.

[viverlibre]

Just hope we can get it enacted before the bluehairs and baptists mobilize against it.

[BeastMan]

Supreme Court ruled to allow it. It’s happening. Sportsbooks will bring a ton of money for our politicians to screw up. It should be noted that real serious gamblers will still run their action through their books of choice. $20k on the Celtics is only a $15k check from the casina after Uncle Sam gets his cut.

I agree, but for small timers like me, this is a big deal. I only wager b/w $25-$200 per game and always less than 5 or so games a week. I'd like to be able to do this legally.

You know Vegas is pissed off. That was their baby.

Not really. They can just open up shops across the country and expand their footprint now.

Only in states that has legalize gambling and allows sports betting. Those state already have casinos and the gaming commission will protect existing casinos. They can also forget the Indian Reservations. They are not going to give up any money.

It's not like they can set up shop where they want.

They can set up shops in states where it is legalized, and the majority of existing casinos are owned by Vegas companies. They just get even more revenue now.

Yep. Pretty much every casino in the country is owned by a handful of major companies.

[msu15]

Great day today! So looking forward to this!

I guess Vegas and Nevada isn't worried about losing tax revenue.

[32 Dive]

Your Week 01 NFL bets should be good to go, at a proactive casino near you...

[Mobile Bay]

IIRC The Golden Moon had an area set up for it right when they opened. I have no idea what happened with it over the years.

For big gamblers such as myself this is great. I always felt a little shady using local bookies. Did not like them knowing my business either. This will hurt online gambling big time. No need to wait for checks through the mail or worried about getting screwed over. As far as the baptist go they gamble and drink more than Catholics.

I know several guys who fly to Vegas just to sit in lounge just to be able to drink and bet. They will be staying in Mississippi now.

I bet how people say not to bet. Never go with your gut, and always bet scared. I'm a straight numbers guy and have had good success by evaluating match-ups (especially later in the season) and picking games based on history.

Every bet can be lost, especially if you feel like you can't lose. If I have $100 to bet, I'd never bet more than $15-$20. I think too many people threw away their v-cash on for sure winners and over bet. If you ran out of vcash, you should not bet in real life, at all. Vcash betting system is way easier than the real world.

[ScoobaDawg]

WhHHHHHAAATTT??? Mississippi will be one of the first ones possibly? What the hell is going on with our state...

Articles say that bets will only be allowed INSIDE casinos though, and they won't allow people to set up accounts where we can bet online.

That will cut into the profit they could stand to make a HUGE deal. I'd love to set up a legal account where I could bet online, but I'm not going to go to the casino that often. Maybe more often than I used to, but not much more.

The city and state may not like it, but the companies owning the casinos are seeing dollar signs.

Sure... projected billions will become 3/4 of that. On another note, legalize and tax pot already. Don't currently use it myself, but hell it's a plant growing in nature. Gotta be better than something made at a plant from Anheuser Busch.

I hope this makes Vegas start lowering their prices and all the stupid resort fees for a basic hotel. They have gotten out of control with that

[Pit Bull]

Hope not.

Yeah, Vegas is not the cheap vacation it used to be.
