In recent years, people have started to change their perceptions about casinos and sports betting. Previously associated with problems and expenses, these businesses are beginning to be seen as opportunities to leverage the economy of regions and even encourage the tourism sector.
In the election that defined the new president of the United States, voters also chose representatives for other positions, such as governor and senator. In addition, the population needed to answer questions related to the release of casinos and betting in their respective locations, according to SuperPoker.
Three states approved sports betting
After the November 3 election, three more American states authorized sports betting with popular approval: Maryland, Louisiana and South Dakota. In total, the country already has bets released in 21 of its 50 states, in addition to the capital Washington.
Thus, the approval granted in the election passes responsibility to the states, which need to define rules according to popular will. Therefore, sports betting – online and physical – will already be accessible in these three locations next year.
Decisions about casinos in the United States
Some regions of the United States have made decisions about casinos. In Colorado, where houses are already authorized, the election determined that the betting ceiling could exceed $ 100.
An increase in table games in casinos was also established. The main gaming houses are in Central City, Black Hawk and Cripple Creek.
Nebraska is the newest American state to allow casinos. The residents decided to approve the construction of these establishments, as well as opting for some points in Virginia. Four cities in that state approved the issue: Bristol, Danville, Norfolk and Portsmouth, and they already have agreements with companies in the sector.
In Danville, the novelty will be an investment by Caesars Entertainment, which owns the main casinos in Las Vegas. Hard Rock International will manage a business in Bristol. In Norfolk, the Pamunkey Tribe should own the house, while Rush Street will have its fifth point in Portsmouth.
