Betting on Sports Events Legally Online and Through Sportsbooks

Betting on sports events can be done legally online and through sportsbooks. Sportsbook sites are privately owned companies that track wagers, payouts, and debts. Legal sportsbooks are many and varied, operated from multiple jurisdictions. Many offer "up-front" wagering. The best way to make an informed decision when betting on sports events is to do a little research and find out which options are available in your area.

Delaware legalizes sports betting in 2022

Online sports betting is set to launch in Delaware sometime in 2022. It will allow Delaware residents to register at online sportsbooks and receive sign-up bonuses. The online sportsbooks will also allow Delawareans to wager on sporting events through mobile devices, as long as they are located in one of three locations. Online sportsbook and casino sites will use geofencing software to verify that a bettor is located in Delaware. The three Delaware racinos already offer sports betting.

While the Supreme Court ruled in favor of legalizing all forms of sports betting, the federal government still has the power to decide on how sports betting will be regulated. Regardless of the ruling, there is strong support for the legalization of sports betting in Delaware. The state's citizens have overwhelmingly endorsed the Supreme Court's decision to legalize sports betting.
