Ok we see numerous posts daily about the doom and gloom of online sports betting in the U.S. Everything from its shutting down tomorrow, to the feds came to my house and handcuffed me for betting 15 dollars on the over in the WNBA game.
As of now, it seems making a wager online in the United States is not necessarily illegal or that there is a big grey zone. I say that because they are now trying to make it clear by the House and Senate passing a law stating online gambling is illegal in the U.S. If it was already illegal, why would they be redundant and pass another law on it?
Right now we are all waiting to see if the online gambling bill is passed in the Senate.
What is the worst case scenario as far as a time for internet gambling in the U.S. to be illegal?
What is the most likely scenario? (Does the bill die in the Senate, does it pass)
Just interested in hearing some logic in this instead of some of the paranoia I have been reading.
