Now with the invalidation of PASPA, the legalization and regulation of sports betting has been on the minds of many jurisdictions. A number of states have passed resolutions or legislation calling for the right to develop sports betting and even the professional sports leagues have urged Congress to adopt a federal framework allowing states to authorize betting on professional sports. Our 2-day intensive program - covering the basics of sports betting from the International Center for Gaming Regulation in Las Vegas, Nevada - provides forward looking gaming jurisdictions with the tactical information to prepare for opportunities in changes to current sports betting laws.
