\"\"There seems to be a major push by both lawmakers and regulators to get Michigan<\/a> up and running for online sports betting and casino games before the end of 2020.<\/p>\n

It has been a year since the legislator passed online gambling<\/a> into law and now only Tuesday 1st<\/sup> December did the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules forgo the normal 15 day waiting period to review and trial new laws towards online sport betting and casinos to allow it to go straight to the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) to accept licensing applications and approve them before the year end.<\/p>\n

The NFL Super Bowl<\/a> is the biggest betting event in the US and it seems Michigan want in on those bets especially as casinos are suffering with closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The possibility of casino being able to offer online sports betting and other games would help them and help raise much needed lost tax dollars for the state.<\/p>\n

Initial rumours out of the\u00a0 MGCB say they believe some operators applying for a license will be up and running before the end of 2020, however those playing online poker will have to wait it is thought as this will be on a separate license and at present not applicable.<\/p>\n

The push is for online sports betting and many now believe that with the MGCB already having advance tested many technology suppliers previously that will supply to the operators the state is only weeks away from going live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
