I'l just never understand why every state doesn't just copy NJ's model. Brick and mortar, MANY online choices, lots of competition for the consumers $$$.
Well, actually I do understand it. Everyone wants their piece, and the consumer gets screwed.
all the books in NJ did not open on day one.. it took about 1 year to get what they got.. longer with software upgrades. and still they have some things that need to be done. Cali will have it fixed in about 2 years after it opens. NJ did not have the indians like cali has.
It's Calif not Cali.
Only toursists call it Cali.
True, but they were doing it right from the beginning with their model, which has expanded and thrived. States should use their model and experience as their template. Any state that doesn't have online/mobile wagering from the beginning is willfully forfeiting untold amounts of dollars.all the books in NJ did not open on day one.. it took about 1 year to get what they got.. longer with software upgrades. and still they have some things that need to be done.

If they do agree to mobile they are going to throw in that it will only be allowed when a person is on their property.All this discussion just ignores the truth in California. The tribal gangsters control the market and they hate the idea people would actually gamble a dollar that they don't get a shot at. They are pushing their own bill to a referendum which doesn't even allow for mobile gaming. They claim the people of California aren't ready for mobile betting, which is such a load of bullshit. They don't want mobile, they want you to drive out through bad traffic to the middle of fucking nowhere and make a few bets on sports, but then also drop hundreds into a slot machine. At least that's what they are trying to force.
Of course none of this shit will work and if they really do manage to block mobile it will be insanely stupid because everyone will just keep betting offshore. But the tribes will act like they protected the population from a devious scourge, which actually would have been them having to share a few dollars out of your wallet with some other gambling operator.
Indian tribes = Adelson
no cal and so cal is acceptable, cali is not
