Iowa Sports Betting

[hubie69]

Is mobile phone wagering going to be available in Iowa like with Fan Duel or Draft Kings?

Mobile wagering will be available, I can't imagine FanDuel/Kings would miss out on that either.

For you Golden Gophers out there, I should have added that Diamond Jo Northwood is basically the Minnesota border. Come on down and get your bets in!

so nothing this weekend there for sports correct? might stop in to see that place. never been inside it

Nothing by this weekend. The state opens it up Aug. 15th, but each casino might be different. Diamond Jo said it is "hopeful its sportsbook will be open by football season."

It's a small casino, but it does have a poker room. It usually only has a couple tables going. Mostly 1/2 NL. Sometimes a 2/5 NL on weekends. Pretty fishy. During the day it is usually nittty old-timers. Sometimes there are a couple truck drivers that stop by off the interstate. During the weekends it can get juicy. The food isn't the best, but they have a buffet and a steakhouse. Plus Burger King and Subway for quick eats. Nothing fancy. I haven't been there in awhile though, so things might have changed a bit.

Thank you. I had no idea. Some states are offering it and some aren't!

FanDuel by far best USA book non Vegas

[hubie69]

Thank you. I had no idea. Some states are offering it and some aren't!

Let me clarify, FanDuel and Draft Kings both will for sure be legal from a Daily Fantasy perspective, this has been outlined and passed. Not positive if they'll be offering books for bettings and/or which casino might have them.

FanDuel not bad in PA Sportsbook

Better than others


DraftKings NJ not bad either

Play onshore
And offshore

Pick best of both

Good info

Thus those two will probably be the best overall in Iowa unless a casino goes independent????

I'm hoping Meskawki goes independent. A couple other casinos are hooked up with Bally's and Caesar's, but I can't remember which ones. Penn Gaming too. I'm looking forward to see how it pans out.

Might be moving to Iowa

The law also states that each licensee is allowed up to two "skins". I'm assuming that means they can operate two different mobile brands?

Pick a spot JJ. There are actually a few other casinos that aren't on this map. All but one has applied for a sportsbook license.

Bally's and Caesars are owned and run by the same Company.

We have a lot experts here

[KVB]

Iowa a clear hotbed.

Getting in touch with folks on the ground now.

[Fishhead]

Stunning news on the horizon

[hawkeye 16]

Bally's and Caesars are owned and run by the same Company.

I thought that was the case. I was just too lazy to look it up. I just saw an article listing who applied to be partnered with who. Some are hard to figure out because it just states "Joe Blow Investments, Limited LLC"

Hawk, that's one hell of a list. See you there.

Iowa may wind up being one of the top5 gaming states.

[hawkeye 16]

We'll have to meet up Chuck.

Iowa's population is probably too small for it to bring in too much revenue, and it will be mostly small time $20 bettors. Their might be a few heavy hitters though, if they can get the $$ down. Iowans love to gamble, especially on sports.

A lot of the revenue will come from neighboring states since most of the casinos are located on the borders or interstates.

[jjgold]

The bottom line is this

No reduced juice
Very wide money lines

[hubie69]

This especially. I'll be out to the western side of the state to fade Nebraska lines if they get inflated from the fans out there. Great info Hawkeye

[jjgold]

The money will be that great to move lines much

Iowa people carry $5 in their pockets

It’s not a rich area

[Otters27]

Anyone know if the sportsbooks will be non smoking?

[hawkeye 16]

Anyone know if the sportsbooks will be non smoking?

The casinos themselves are all smoking. For those casinos that have them, the poker rooms are non-smoking. A few of the books (smaller ones) will be merged into the sports bars, so that might make a difference. No clue really.
