The initiative comes after<strong> Governor Mike DeWine publicly regretted his role in legalizing the sector in the state.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposals include broad changes and directly impact the operation of the platforms. Among the planned points are the<strong> total ban on online <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"Sports Betting\">sports betting<\/a> and the restriction of <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en-2\/2026\/01\/26\/missouri-rejects-ncaa-ban-on-betting-on-college-sports\/\">betting on university sports.<\/a><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the new betting legislation in Ohio predicts<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bills also eliminate live, special and parlay bets, while setting a maximum limit of<strong> $100 per bet.<\/strong> Furthermore, the texts prevent the<strong> use of credit cards <\/strong><strong>for deposits<\/strong> and<strong> prohibit betting advertisements during sports broadcasts.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The group responsible for the proposals is made up of<strong> representatives Gary Click, Johnathan Newman, Riordan McClain and Kevin Ritter<\/strong>. In this sense, legislators state that the measure seeks to preserve sporting integrity in the state. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The debate gained momentum following a <strong>match-fixing<\/strong> scandal involving <strong>Cleveland<\/strong> athletes, including<a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en-2\/2026\/02\/24\/trial-of-mlb-stars-for-betting-scheme-likely-to-be-postponed-until-october\/\"> Emmanuel Clase<\/a> and Luis Ortiz. During a press conference, <strong>Johnathan Newman said,<\/strong><em> &#8220;Can you imagine the pitcher on the mound controlling the game to win bets?&#8221;<\/em> <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Financial impacts and growth in betting addiction<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most relevant proposal deals with the ban on online <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"Sports Betting\">sports betting<\/a>, which accounts for most of the sector&#8217;s revenue. In 2025, this modality generated<strong> US$584,887,009<\/strong>, while in-person betting registered only <strong>US$7,109,349 <\/strong>in the state. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, lawmakers also highlighted<strong> concerns related to the increase in cases of gambling addiction<\/strong>. A state report identified growth in registrations following the legalization of online sports betting in 2023. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Gary Click stated<\/strong>, <em>\u201cWe were going to implement some common sense consumer protection measures to protect the citizens of Ohio.\u201d Furthermore, health experts reinforce the concern about the social effects of this expansion.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Projects face resistance in the political scenario<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The authors themselves recognized difficulties in approving the proposals, mainly due to the popularity of online sports betting among users. Still, the topic remains under discussion within the state legislature. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Riordan McClain<\/strong> stated, <em>&#8220;mixed results from his Republican colleagues, and even the staunch anti-gambling (DeWine) disagrees with some parts.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2024, Ohio had already removed betting on college sports from digital platforms, indicating a gradual movement towards restriction. At the same time, <strong>Mike DeWine also pressured MLB and operators to limit microbetting in the state.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, only part of the current measures are viable for approval in the short term, especially those related to advertising and payment methods. Finally, a total ban on online sports betting still faces strong resistance within the local political environment. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A group of Republican lawmakers have introduced bills that could transform the sports betting market in Ohio, in the United States.
