Sport Betting Bill Passes House
SUMMARY: The Mississippi House passed House Bill 774 on Thursday, which would legalize mobile sports betting in the state. The author of the bill, Republican Representative Casey Eure, believes it will turn a huge state revenue loss into a gain, but it would require bettors to use online services from existing casinos in the state. Online sportsbooks like DraftKings or FanDuel would need to partner with casinos before customers are able to participate. While the sportsbooks can contract with all the casinos in the state, the casinos themselves can only contract one sportsbook. Eure estimates that the state would generate between 25-35 million in revenue during the first year.
