Sports betting hopes to enter New Jersey as live betting giant William Hill secures a deal to potentially operate a sports book at Monmouth Park if a federal.
Pay per head sports betting is eagerly awaiting a federal decision that would allow the Garden state to accept sports wagers in a Las Vegas style sportsbook at the track. New Jersey is currently challenging a recent ruling made by Judge Shipp earlier this year.
The federal Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) of 1992 currently only allows 4 states to accept wagers on sports, and Nevada is the leader accepting more than 3.4 billion in live bets last year alone.
