    Sports betting could be legalized in Louisiana by football season

    Anyone living in Louisiana can you wager on your phone and update us during football season?

    great news for texans !

    "The Louisiana Gaming Control Board will be in charge of the regulated market. The Louisiana Lottery Corporation will be able to launch its own mobile platform for residents, however, following an amendment in the House.
    Retail sportsbooks will be taxed 10% while mobile and digital sports betting operations will be taxed 15%-18%"


    So let say you win $100 you have to pay 15% upfront or wait for the sportsbook to give you 1099 form ?

    I think they mean the Sportsbooks have to pay that tax to the state.

    Nothing to do with players.

    I guess this fall I may not have to travel to biloxi (as well as not having to play offshore).

    Would be really sweet if we can dfs too and have all of it be online instead of at the casino.
