Still, West Virginia stands out from the pack because of its radical changes and liberal gambling policies. Since 2019, residents have been free to play <\/span>online casino games and slots. Let\u2019s start from the top and look at the history of gambling in West Virginia and how laws have changed over time.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

The current West Virginia gambling market<\/b><\/h2>\r\nWest Virginia is a gambling-friendly state. While the state only has five land-based casinos, it offers bettors various sports betting options, horse racing, a state lottery, fantasy betting, <\/span>casino table games<\/a><\/strong>, and slot machines. The state has already launched its own\u00a0casino sites. Local race tracks can also legally expand to offer casino-style games.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe state is dedicated to improving the thriving gambling industry and providing players with more platforms to bet and play conveniently and safely. Today, Mountain State generates millions from sports betting and online games. This wasn't always the case, though. Let\u2019s look at the history of gambling in West Virginia and how the law has embraced betting.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

The history of gambling in West Virginia<\/b><\/h2>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"large_image","image_options":"inline-image","image":31930,"image_link":"","caption_1":"","image_2":null,"caption_2":"","image_2_link":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"paragraph","title_only":true,"content":"West Virginia officials were careful about legalizing games and very selective about the games they legalized. Despite the slow pace of legalization in the state, a culture of gambling was always present.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe first positive law change came in 1933 with a law that legalized horse race betting. The success and popularity of the sport encouraged officials to establish the first lottery under amended gambling laws in 1984. A referendum followed that allowed Video Lottery Terminals in 1994. Soon these terminals could be found in bars, restaurants, and gaming venues all over the state. Now that gambling was a central part of the West Virginia lifestyle, radical law changes followed that revolutionized gambling and gaming in the state.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

The legalization of online sports betting<\/b><\/h3>\r\nWith horse racing betting legal, the legalization of sports betting was a no-brainer. A major law change came in 2018 after a Supreme Court ruling. This new law allowed West Virginians to bet on any sport online. Sports gambling was first available from three land-based casinos in the state, but now sportsbooks like BetMGM have partnered with the state to bring their sport betting options to residents. With BetMGM, you can legally bet on basketball, soccer, baseball, tennis, football, MMA, and many more sports online. Betting online also allows residents to take advantage of the <\/span>different online casino bonuses<\/a><\/strong> and offers.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Is online gambling legal in West Virginia?<\/b><\/h2>\r\nWest Virginia became an online casino state almost by accident. After Governor Jim Justice, also a hotel owner, declined to sign the West Virginia Lottery Interactive Wagering Act because of a conflict of interest, the bill automatically became law without the signature because the veto was left in the drawer. Strange as this loophole may seem, it did mean casino games like online slot machines have been legal in the state since March 2018.<\/span>\r\n\r\nIn West Virginia online casino<\/a><\/strong> law, all online casinos must flow from the five land-based properties in the state. Thanks to a partnership with The Casino Club at Greenbrier Hotel, BetMGM can bring its extensive online catalog to West Virginians. Aside from the sportsbook, the BetMGM <\/span>live dealer online casino<\/a><\/strong> offers table games like live dealer blackjack with real, friendly dealers. Residents also have access to thousands of slots and games from leading developers in the industry.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThere are 15 online casino sites to choose from in West Virginia. If you can\u2019t play at a casino online, visit the following land-based betting venues.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n
