I have a feeling it is going to be legalized soon since rhode island would love to legalize sports betting!  |

Depends on taxes, amount of money you play for and lines imo. |

taxes would be a big consideration. No way a US company would be able to hang -105 or a dimeline, let alone comeptitive prices on props, etc
Competition would be too cutthroat to keep profit margins high, but with the govt taking a slice, would also suck away value from the player side
However, I think it would seriously dent offshores, in that recreational players will prefer to play with "safe" corporate books in the US |

What if the U.S. Legislator would make a 180 degree turnaround on the gambling issue and open its doors to onshore business ? Would you be likely to play onshore ? Would offshores suffer from this move ? |
