Online casino games, poker, sports and horse racing betting websites authorized in New York
The sports betting situation in New York has proven itself to be somewhat complex. New York has passed sports betting legislation, but as of early 2020 it is only available at brick-and-mortar establishments in the state. There is a push in the state legislature to have mobile sports betting platforms approved and running by the end of 2020.
Governor Andrew Cuomo has hesitated to give online sports the go-ahead, but most of those close to the situation believe the Plan, Pass, and Prepare strategy proposed by some state lawmakers will make legal online sports betting in New York a reality by December 31, 2020.
In the meantime it is still possible for any adult in the state that is over the age of 21 to place bets in a live sportsbook. The sports offered include baseball, hockey, and boxing. Players are allowed to participate in parlay and teaser wagers as well as make bets on a single event.
The sportsbooks in New York are all primarily located upstate. The addition of online betting will give many more people the opportunity to make wagers. Many lawmakers are eager to make mobile platforms legal because New Jersey and Pennsylvania have already done so. New York does not want to lose sports betting revenue to neighboring states.
