What We’re Watching

Week of July 24th, 2017

In Pennsylvania a budget has been agreed to by the House and the Senate. Now the two sides just need to agree to how to finance the budget, a process that is stretching well beyond initial passage. The longer we wait for a resolution, the more likely it is that online gambling will be stuck waiting until the fall.

Illinois: A last-minute push to regulate online gambling in Illinois appears to have stalled for now, but could be revived later in the summer or fall.

Primary Areas of Focus

While our coverage occasionally reaches into nearly every corner of online gaming, Online Poker Report has a few primary focus areas.

Regulated U.S. Online Poker

The bulk of our coverage is focused on the markets for regulated, legal, online poker in New Jersey, Nevada, and Delaware, along with other states in the U.S., including California and Pennsylvania, that are considering regulated online poker.

Our coverage spans regulatory updates, legislative developments, market analysis, and day-to-day news that may be of interest not only to those following the markets, but also online poker players who participate in them.

Online Gambling Regulation in America

Along with specific coverage of online poker, we also explore the broader topic of online gambling regulation in the United States, including casino and lottery games.

Our companion site – LegalSportsReport.com – is where you’ll find our coverage of issues related to daily fantasy sports and legal sports betting in the U.S.. We also cover the convergence of esports and gambling at EsportsBettingReport.com and the consumer perspective on NJ online casinos at PlayNJ.com.

The Global Online Poker Market

Recently, we have started to expand our coverage beyond the U.S. into the global market for online poker, including jurisdictions such as the UK’s regulated online poker market. We made this decision as the leading companies involved in one market increasingly started to mirror companies in another, and as the innovations from – and the challenges facing – the international online poker market became increasingly relevant for the American online poker industry as well.
