Four Washington tribes seeking first sportsbook licenses

July 15, 2020

Four Washington tribes are currently negotiating licensing details with the state Gambling Commission for authorization to offer sports betting at their casinos. The four tribes are the Tulalip, Suquamish, Snoqualmie and Kalispel. Each hopes to open their sportsbook operations before the end of 2020.

Washington became the 21st state to legalize sports betting in March 2020. The law limits bets to be placed with tribal casinos only, no online betting is allowed except at a casino, and bets can be placed on professional sports but not collegiate games.

The four tribes seeking the first sportsbook licenses own the following casinos:

Washington becomes 21st state to allow sports betting

March 25, 2020

Today Gov. Inslee Gov. Inslee signed legislation to allow sports betting inside all Washington Indian casinos. Card rooms are excluded and mobile betting is limited to within casinos.

SUMMARY

• All bets must be placed inside licensed Indian casinos.

• Tribes must negotiate terms and conditions with the State to add sports betting to their gaming compacts.

• Betting is allowed on all professional sports except for minor league professional events.

• Betting is allowed on all college games except in-state colleges.

• Mobile betting is prohibited except inside a licensed Indian casino.

• The Washington State Gambling Commission will provide regulatory oversight to all sports betting operations.

There is no timeline to opening the first sportsbook in the state. The next step is state licensing of casinos via their gaming compacts. The following step will be investments by the casinos into betting facilities and gaming software. Hopefully, at that point COVID-19 will longer be a health threat and casinos will be operating again.

Bill Would Allow Sports Betting at Washington Indian Casinos

February 11, 2019

House Bill 1975 seeks to authorize sports betting only inside the tribal casino of the state. This would include betting on both college and professional sports.

Bets could be placed with a casino teller or at a kiosk within the casino. Bets could also be placed by mobile phone but only inside an Indian casino.

If passed, each tribe would be required to renegotiate their gaming compacts with the state to add the terms for regulating and taxing the sports waging. This is required by Indian gaming laws of the federal government and may take a year or more before betting can begin.

Kalispel Tribe plans for $10.5M casino at Kalispel Park

May 02, 2018

More plans have been announced for a new casino project by the Kalispel Tribe. The project is estimated to be finished by the end of this year and will cost $10.5 million to complete.

In addition to the casino, there will also be a market offering fresh food and a fuel station. There will also be an RV resort offering rental of storage units and tiny homes.

The project will be built in Cusick on the tribes' original reservation.

In the summer of last year ground was broken. During the winter and spring construction and building have continued to take place.

Over 100 slot machines will be in operation when the casino opens. There will be a player's club loyalty program. Future plans for the casino could include table games. That will depend on demand from guests.

Dining will be available. There will be a restaurant with 70 seats. Also, a 150 guest banquet room.

Casual dining will be available at the mezzanine at the Kalispel Market. It will also offer fresh groceries, convenience shopping, and vendors can rent space just outside. A laundry that is coin operated, shower and restrooms. Seven pumps at the fueling station.

33 sites will offer full hook ups at the Kalispel RV Resort. Guests will have access to internet, water, power, and sewer. Plus, a dump station for the RVs. Eight tiny homes will be available to rent.

Scheduled to be completed and open to the public by this summer will be the Kalispel Storage, Kalispel Market, and the Kalispel RV Park.

50 construction jobs have been created by the park alone. When opened, it will employ 75 people to fill both full and part time positions.

Texas was the 28th state to join the United States and has earned a reputation for being one of the most business-friendly states in the country.

Yet, to this day, Texas remains the state least likely to legalize online gambling in the US.

Currently, online gambling is illegal in The Lone Star state. Brick and mortar casinos built in the state are also deemed to be illegal.

However, there are still a few ways you can gamble legally in the state:

• Indian Casinos
• Boat Cruise Casinos
• Horse and Dog Tracks
• Lottery/Raffles

Online Casinos in Texas

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like online casinos will ever be legalized in Texas. The government is very opposed to the idea and dismisses any attempts at trying to regulate it.

That being said, there are still options for those who want to play casino games for real money! Texas allows sweepstakes which means you can play slots online and potentially win cash.

You can also participate in legal online poker games through sweepstakes sites or Daily Fantasy Sports leagues. The state tends to move quite slow when it comes to gambling laws, land andonline, so we don't expect much out of Texas.

Land-Based Casinos in Texas

There are two Indian casinos and one casino boat in Texas.

Both Indian casinos offer class II gaming machines based on bingo. Class II video gaming devices in Texas casinos look like slot machines but are actually bingo games and the spinning reels arefor “entertainment purposes only.”

No public information is available concerning the payback percentages on any gaming machines in Texas casinos. Unlike the casinos in Texas, in many states, the slot machine payback statisticsfor that particular state’s casinos are released as a matter of public record. Just click here to seea list of slot machine payback statistics for all U.S. casinos.

If you are looking for Texas casinos near Houston this is your best bet. While Houston has no casinos, Jacks or Better Casino is only about an hour away.

Types of Casinos in Texas

Currently, there are only 2 land-based casinos in operation in the state of Texas. Both of these are owned, operated, and built on Native American territories. There is also one casino cruiseship, and horse tracks which accept parimutuel betting.

Indian Casinos

Under federal law, all Native American territories are considered to be independent and operate under their own jurisdiction.

However, ever since the 'Federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act' came into play in 1988, the government of Texas has been trying to change this. A campaign was launched within the court system toshut down all forms of gambling, specific to those on Native American soil within the state.

The state of Texas argues that the 'Federal Restoration Act' of 1987, which officially recognized the Tigua and Alabama - Coushatta tribes, should take legal priority. Why? Because this billexplicitly prohibits gambling.

One of the Indian casinos in Texas, Kickapoo Lucky Eagle Casino, offers pull-tab machines, bingo, and poker. That casino is the larger of the two casinos in Texas. It has a hotel, fiverestaurants, and a casino with 3,300 gaming machines.

The other casino, Naskila Gaming, does not have a hotel. It has one cafe and more than 800 gaming machines.

Both of these casinos are open 24 hours daily.

Casino Cruise Ship

The casino boat, Jacks or Better Casino, is based in Galveston. The boat sails nine miles out into the Gulf of Mexico where casino gambling is permitted.

The casino boat offers blackjack, craps, roulette, three card poker, a sportsbook, slots, and video poker. You must provide a photo ID or you won’t be allowed to board.

Parimutuel Wagering

Surprisingly, Texas does allow residents to wager at horse and dog tracks in the state.

Horse Tracks

The horse tracks are broken down into Classes:

Class 1 horse tracks:

• Lone Star Park - Grand Prairie
• Retama Park - Selma
• Sam Houston Race Park - Houston

These tracks are allowed to host races as many times as they would like.

Class 2 horse tracks have yet to be built in Texas. Multiple tracks are in the works, and once open, will be permitted to host up to 60 race days a year.

History of Gambling in Texas

Gambling has been in Texas since it was founded, and while it has always been illegal, was still considered an accepted form of entertainment in Texas. It was so popular that even the childrenwere allowed to participate with adults!

Gambling halls and saloons were built before churches within the new settlements. As the years progressed, this pastime became more organized and gambling establishments were being opened incities across the state.

In the 1920s, multiple organized crime groups took control of the under-world gambling industry in Texas. Their clubs were some of the most elegant in the nation and attracted a lot ofcelebrities from all across the country.

The most famous crime bosses who ran their operations out of Texas include:

• Sam and Rosario Maceo - Galveston
• Benny Binion, Carlo Piranio and Joseph Piranio - Dallas
• Fat Jack Helfman - Houston

Famous gambler Jackie Freedman ran his exclusive club 'Domain Privee' out of his mansion. He is, apparently, the guy to have saved Houston's oldest financial company, The First National Bank,by not withdrawing his money during the Great Depression.

Come the 1940s, things began to change in Texas. Local officials started cracking down on illegal gambling. This forced a lot of the clubs to close and instead, picked up and moved theiroperations to Las Vegas.

By 1957, all gambling operations were shut down in the state of Texas.

The Federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act

30 years later, in 1988, the Federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act was legislated. This was followed by legalizing lottery sales, and the Charitable Raffle Enabling Act (CREA) being created inthe 90s.

The CREA approves qualified organizations to hold up to 2 raffles per year.
